Auschwitz, 1943
Two years later, laws banning marriage or sexual relations between Jews and non-Jews were enacted and later expanded to include "Gypsies, Negroes, or their bastard offspring". And one year after that, the Four-Year Economic Plan's aim was to gain independence from foreign trade. Within five years the Holocaust was in motion. Millions of people - Jews, Slavs, Romani, Russians, mentally and physically disabled people, Jehovah's Witnesses, and more - were killed. And plans were in place to starve millions of "racially inferior" Europeans (controlled territories such as Russia, Slavic nations, etc) by seizing their food supplies and giving them to Germans.
Numbers: Roughly 1.5 million children were victims of the Holocaust. In total about 11 million victims, which included not only around 6 million Jews, but also Poles and other Slavs, Soviet citizens, Soviet POWs, Romanis (Gypsies), Communists, homosexuals, Freemasons, Jehovah's Witnesses, and the mentally and physically disabled, were victims of the Nazi regime. By the end, 19.3 million civilians and prisoners of war and 29 million soldiers and civilians died because of the war. Hate and fear can take a great toll.
