What is the Holocaust?
Between 1933 and 1945, across Nazi -occupied Europe, the Holocaust was the systematic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of six million Jewish men, women and children by the German regime, its allies and collaborators. By the end of World War II, about two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population had been killed.
