How could so many Jews die in Auschwitz? The concentration camps: A crime, made possible by war.

Definition by labor was a German idea and the reason for the concentration and labor camps for Jews. More than a quarter of all workers were forced laborers and Jews. More than 5.7 million Soviet prisoners of war were under German control and 3.5 million died. Most of the Jews died in the concentration camps in the occupied territories.

Besides the Jews, Roma and Sinti were also victims, excluded from society, checked for German citizenship and deprived of many of their rights. They had to work in the concentration camps until there was no strength left. Sinti and Roma were sent to a "Chipsi camp." Unlike other victim groups, the Sinti and Roma were not separated from their families.
