In the 20th century alone we had already had two huge wars. These wars were call the World Wars simply because they involved most of the big countries of the world.

The treatment of the Jews would only worsen as the war became longer and the hatred towards these people worsened. The Jews were used as a “scapegoat” to make the German people angry and ready to fight against anyone that stood in...
