Answer 3

A black and white film, ``The World At War`` tells everything  Adolf Hilter hatred for the Jews were really gruesome. All those concentration camps no matter there were close to Poland or to the most remote Sibirea...... were all camps with laboraries for medical experience in applying poisonous gas in Jews.

Appearantly, those were the places for the Jews to go, there would be jobs waiting for them.

Before killing them Hilter ordered to starve and torture them  Later on because of  voilating Genifer Treaties Hilter pretended to be very kind to the Jews. He tried to show the journalists that the Nasi created jobs for the Jews. They all made shoes and clothings for the poor. When time came, Hilter ordered to gas them all----- Old men, Women and Children. For the strong young men, Hilter left them for hard labour.

The j**s did the same to the Chinese in the Northern part of China. Those Human live medical experience  were so brutal and cruel. The film made the whole world in tears! Nanjing masscres ... the Japanese troops shot and butched those civilians with no guns or weopans in their hands. Those pregnancy women, their stomach were chopped opened, the unborn babies were torn out and threw in the skies to banyront.

I`m sorry for I can`t carry on any more.

World peace and friendship is very important. Shezhuan earthquake the Japanese troops and the Germans and peoples` all over the world  offer their warm and powerful help.

Thanks God never repeat the History of Hilter and the Jews!

Answer 4

Just a general overview of the concentration camps in the parts of Europe that were under n**i control...

Special concentration camps were built but the n***s to detain people considered "undesirable", particularly Jews. From 1941, many camps were set up throughout Eastern Europe, including Chelmno, Treblinka and Auschwitz. These were literally death camps, built to achieve Hitler's "final solution" of exterminating all European Jews. Thousands of men, women and children were led into chambers where they were killed with a cyanide compound, Zyklon B, introduced through vents in the walls. Non-Jews were also killed, including gypsies and the disabled.

Okayyy! So I think that pretty much sums up what they concentration camps were. Now, we both know that Auschwitz was the largest and most prestigious amongst what I call, "Hitler's collection of doll houses." Below are the most famous concentration camps...

*Chelmno (or Kulmhof) Concentration Camp is in Poland.

It opened in December, 1941.

It is approximated that this camp killed around 320,000 people.

*Auschwitz Concentration Camp is in Poland, too.

It opened in September, 1941.

This camp killed around 1,200,000 people.

*Belzek Concentration Camp is in Poland as well...

It opened in March, 1942.

A total of 600,000 people were estimated liquidated (killed).

*Sobibor Concentration Camp, also in Poland.

It opened in March, 1942 too.

This camp killed around 250,000 innocent.

*Treblinka Concentration Camp, also... in Poland.

It opened in July, 1942.

This camp killed around 700,000 people.

*Majdenek Concentration Camp is also in Poland...

It opened in October, 1942.

Around 1,380,000 people were exterminated.

*Stutthof Concentration Camp is in... Germany.

It opened in June, 1944.

For a camp that opened a year before the war ended, I found it creepy that the n**i's managed to kill 65,000 people here.

Anyway, and so ends the most famous ones. The smaller camps that were in Germany were...

*Arbeitsdorf, which was a concentration camp.

*Bergen-Belsen, which was a collection point.

*Breitenau, was another concentration camp.

*Buchenwald, which was probably the most famous concentration camp.

*Dachau, another famous concentration camp.

*Flossenbürg, a concentration camp.

*Hinzert, another concentration camp.

*Kaufering, yet another concentration camp.

*Zwieberge, another concentration camp.

*Malchow, another concentration camp.

*Mittelbau-Dora, another concentration camp.

*Neuengamme, concentration camp...

*Niederhagen, concentration camp...

*Oranienburg, concentration camp...

*Osthofen, concentration camp...

*Sachsenhausen, the last concentration camp.

These camps didn't have many people die in them. They were small and out of the way, unlike Stutthof which was quite large. Still, that's not to say that these camps weren't total utter h**l... I think the camp with the highest death rate in the list above was something like 100,000. That's saying something because Stutthof was 65,000. Then again, I think Stutthof is recognised because it killed a large amount of people the year before the war ended.

I got that list off this link...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Naz...

I know it's Wikipedia, but it's actually quite accurate. Anyway! Thanks for asking this question! I forgot that the camps that were responsible for the most deaths were outside of Germany. I should tell my good friend Michal Kieca... anyway. This is actually quite interesting. It shows that, once the Germans had conquered Poland, Austria, France etc they set up their bases for those they despised outside of their country. It's a perfect example of showing how, even more prejudice, the n**i's were. It tells us quite clearly that not only did they want the Jews etc locked up, but they wanted them locked up and in their control... in another country.

Now, the most populated camps are determined by the camps that liquidated the most people.  The concentration camps were located in areas that were plains. By this I mean large, flat, dry and tree-less areas. Depressing, as I look at it. Anyway, they did this for many reasons. One, if a prisoner escaped, they would be easy to spot in the distance. Two, because they are flat and bare, it was easy for trucks and trains to deposit prisoners there. And so the list continues on. You'd have to research a few of the camps. Oh, I just thought of another one. Some camps were located outside cities, and therefore won the adjoining name 'labor camp,' as well as 'concentration camp.' Obviously, the Jews would work extremely hard to produce food and power for the cities, etc. I know that outside Auschwitz, for instance, the prisoner's would mine for coal.

Ok, hope this helped!

Answer 5

".......what were more populated camps that WERE IN GERMANY...."

I just thought you might like to know that Auschwitz is located in Poland, around 50km west of Krakow... even if it was under German control...

Answer 6

hello

there were two concentration camps in germany,

Buchenwald

-although being a work camp, an estimated 56,545 people died there

Sachsenhausen

-close to 100,000 people died there through abuse and medical experiments

most accounts of the Holocaust recognize six n**i extermination camps in occupied Poland

Auschwitz II (Auschwitz-Birkenau)

Chełmno

Bełżec

Majdanek

Sobibór

Treblinka

The number of people killed at the death camps has been estimated as follows;

Auschwitz-Birkenau: about 1,100,000

Treblinka: at least 700,000

Bełżec: about 434,500

Sobibór: about 167,000

Chełmno: about 152,000

Majdanek: 78,000

Maly Trostenets: at least 65,000 (located in belarus)

the death camps were located far from town so that there were no civilian witnesses,  and always on railway lines to ensure easy transport  to the camps

hope that helps

Answer 7

Here you  can find a map about concentration- and death camps:

http://history1900s.about.com/library/ho...

But this map is without many forgotten camps. The Germans also had some smaller camps which only excisted for a short time.

Here you will find most of those: http://www.jewishgen.org/Forgottencamps/...

About the numbers are still controversies. It's difficult to find a good site with accurate numbers.

Here you will find an interesting site about the largest camps;

http://www.shoaheducation.com/killingcen...

The number of victims, and the biggest camps, according to Wiki:

# Auschwitz-Birkenau: about 1,100,000[8]

# Treblinka: at least 700,000[9]

# Bełżec: about 434,500[10]

# Sobibór: about 167,000[11]

# Chełmno: about 152,000[12]

# Majdanek: 78,000[13]

# Maly Trostenets: at least 65,000

And here are some other interesting sites:

http://www.deathcamps.info/

http://remember.org/camps/

http://fcit.usf.edu/HOLOCAUST/TIMELINE/c...

http://www.auschwitz.dk/Auschwitz.htm

http://isurvived.org/AUSCHWITZ_TheCamp.h...

By the way, it might be interesting for your assignment to point out that besides the jews, there where many more groups of people who got murdered. About 6 million jews where killed, but the total amount of people who died in deathcamps was about 11 million!

This site is about 'the forgotten':

http://remember.org/forgotten/index.html

"n**i hatred extended to include groups into categories of hatred, those deemed racially or genetically inferior, asocials (s*x offenders or habitual criminals), religious groups and political enemies of the state.  Therefore, there was a mosaic of victims who experienced state-sanctioned discrimination and extermination the Romani (Gypsies) the mentally and physically handicapped, homosexuals, the infirmed, the elderly, the terminally ill, the academically challenged, Professionals, Intelligensia, Poles, Slavs, Blacks, Nuns, Catholic priests, oppositional clergies, Jehovah Witnesses, Soviet P.O.W.'s, Social Democrats, Communists, purged n***s, those who aided targeted victims and all others that did not fit the Aryan myth."
