This will talk about the reasons Adolf Hitler started the Holocaust.
The Holocaust was one of the worst things that happened to the world.
The origins of the Holocaust traced back into the beginnings of Christianity. Found in early christian writings, there was rumor of the christian messiah “Jesus ” was killed by a Jew. This was not the only rumor there were several more such as Other christian writings charging Jews with deicide. There was another that Jews killed young christian children to use there blood for matzoh. But these were all in christian writing, and they were not proven, and there is no traces of motives or
reasons why a Jew would do that. What we defiantly know is that after WW1, the Germans were humiliated. So the German president elected Adolf Hitler as the chancellor of Germany after the nazi party had won over most of Germany. Hitler wanted to make Germany great again. So he had the idea of making Germany “pure” which meant you had to be Aryan ( Someone who is tall blonde, and has blue eyes), and christian. But most of all no Jews were aloud.

Adolf Hitler The leader of the Nazis was Adolf Hitler, today know as one of the most horrible men in history.
Jewish Lifestyle The life of a Jew in the Holocaust was horrible. Before the Holocaust initially started, over 304,000 Jews immigrated to a dierent country. Their life was considered worse than a pig life during the Holocaust. They were forced to live in ghettos controlled by black shirts (nazi oďŹƒcers). There life was awful, about 3 families live in one small apartment. Each family had one loaf of bread for each weak, and sometimes soup, or potato skins. Heating/fuel was scarce and people had to scavenge for wood to burn, some resulted to burning their dead. After some time living in the ghetto, they were sent to work camp, if they were t weak to work than they would be sent to the gas
chambers. Like I mentioned before, Jews life was like a pig, they even had less rights than one. At the end of the holocaust over 6,000,000 Jews died, 1.5 million of those were children.
This is Jewish children being kept in a concentration camp
Creative Letter: Dear Jarod, I am stuck in here in Lodz. The black shirts are treating me like dirt. I just heard rumors that they were going to kill the weak ones in the hospital. So I walked out and looked at the hospital, I saw black shirts throwing babies out of windows. They were slaughtering the weak, and not sparing a soul. Luckily, my grandmother heard the rumors too, so she bulleted home before it all started. I sure hope things are better in Auschwitz. Please reply, if things are better, I think I would have a good chance at migrating my family there Love Daniel. Dear Daniel, Auschwitz, is a hell-hole. Do not come here, you have it better where you are. In fact I was beaten for receiving this letter. I surely hope that you make it through these tough times. I will write if I am alive at the end. Sincerely, Jerod

it it. At the end only 800 remained. The black shirts would constantly search through apartments for restricted belongings.
In conclusion the Holocaust was one of the worst things that has happened to man kind. From researching this topic, I realized that we need to set aside our differences, and live together in harmony.
