Did you ever know or realize how internment camps and concentration camps were so alike and different at the same time. In this article i'm going to explain these main differences and similarities.
The japanese internment camps(united states concentration camps) were held during world war two, to keep the japanese americans in one place during the bombing of pearl harbor. They stored between 110,000 to 120,000 japanese people in the camps. President Franklin Roosevelt on February 19, 1942 authorized all the japanese people to go to the camps.
Inside the camps you got cots to sleep in, no fridge, no water, no dryer, no sinks,no tables, no chairs, and you had very little privacy.
