Solution

Nazi ideology depended on majoritarian principles. They resorted to mass killing of minority communities to build racial superiority of Aryan Germans. The main target of Nazis were the Jews they were merely 0.75 percent of the population in Germany.
The Jews were persecuted in the following ways:
i) In 1933, New Germany laws forced Jews out of their civil service jobs, universities and law court positions and other areas of public life.
ii) The laws proclaimed at Nuremberg in April 1933, made Jews second-class citizens.
iii) Jews could not attend public schools go to theatres, cinema, vacation resorts etc.
iv) The new anti-Jewish regulations segregated Jews further and made daily life very difficult for them.
v) Anti-Nazi Jews were sent to the death camps and were killed by gassing in gas chambers or shooting with rifles in gas chambers.
vi) About 6 million Jews were killed during the Holocaust.
vii) Yes I agree with this statement in every country some people are differentiated because of their
identity ex: Blacks people in America.
