Explanation:
The Holocaust was the murder of approximately six million Jews by the
Nazis and their collaborators. Between the German invasion of the Soviet
Union in the summer of 1941 and the end of the war in Europe in May
1945, Nazi Germany and its accomplices strove to murder every Jew
under their domination. Because Nazi discrimination against the Jews
began with Hitler's accession to power in January 1933, many historians
consider this the start of the Holocaust era. The Jews were not the only
victims of Hitler's regime, but they were the only group that the Nazis
sought to destroy entirely.
