“night“ it said “once in a village in romania, twelve-year-old Elie wiesel spends much time learning about Jewish mysticism.And also in the concentration camps like the one he was in they hung people they shot them and they gave them almost no food to eat so the people who sis live their died almost every day,because of this the people have to go through hardships in concentration camps and he almost dies 6 times because of hitler's orders. The next effect of the holocaust was. According to the website history. Com we figure out the new meaning of the word holocaust (holocaust). The “word "holocaust," from the Greek words "holos" which means whole and "kaustos" which means burned, was historically used to show a sacrificial offering burned on an altar. Hitler made this new word happen because he sent everyone to the camps and he told the people to kill the jews and that is why the word holocaust is so bad. The second world war was an effect to bring the word holocaust into the dictionary. The final effect of the holocaust was.
According to the website Jewish virtual library (deaths).” Over 6 million jews died in concentration camps the holocaust was the brutal, state-sponsored persecution of six million jews by the nazis and its collaborators.” They mostly killed them in concentration camps or in the pits they had to dig and be shot into by the SS or sometimes called the officers of death. It was horrific,the ss got tired of shooting so they started using Zyklon b which is a chemical in the air that kills you.and also they used gas vans with the same technology.(gas vans)Also they had to shoot the people who disobeyed them like on the trains that took them to the camps from mr morgans teachings i learned about a person who tried to give someone else water and a ss officer threatened to kill the person. In conclusion, there are many effects and causes of the holocaust. How bad it was for some of the people who had to live through it. And imagine if you were in the concentration camps with your family and lets say you got a job that you had to put the people in the crematorium and what if it was your family. That is why you should learn a lot about the holocaust and now you know you will know how to deal with it if it ever happens again,lets hope it does not happen ever, ever again because an effect of the new holocaust might be WW III. And that would lead to more deaths and even more
deaths.
