Concentration Camps
The first Nazi concentration camps set up in Germany were greatly expanded after the Reichstag fire of 1933, and were intended to hold political prisoners and opponents of the regime. The term was borrowed from the British concentration camps of the Second Anglo-Boer War.The number of camps quadrupled between 1939 and 1942 to 300+,as slave-laborers from across Europe, Jews, political prisoners, criminals, homosexuals, gypsies, the mentally ill and others were incarcerated, generally without judicial process. Concentration camps had to do alot with the Holocaust which was the mass killing of all jew or the final solution to the jew problem who Hitler thought was the cause of Germany not being the most powerful country in the world.
