This comprehensive overview details the key steps in the Holocaust, initiated by Hitler's rise to power. It outlines how non-Aryans were systematically removed from government roles, followed by the Nuremberg Laws that stripped Jews of their rights, culminating in Kristallnacht where Jewish properties were attacked. The forced relocation to ghettos led to rampant disease and starvation, ultimately resulting in deportations to concentration camps. The horrific "Final Solution" led to the death of 11 million people, half of whom were Jews, along with other marginalized groups.

Step 3: Forced Relocation • Jews isolated into ghettos – areas sealed off with barbed wire or walls. • Starvation and disease were so rampant that bodies piled up in the streets faster than they could be removed.
