The definition of horror perfectly describes the event of Kristallnacht, as it means the feeling of fear, shock, or disgust toward something. Kristallnacht was an event during the Holocaust where thousands of Jews had their shops raided. It was a huge, massively coordinated attack on huge Jewish communities throughout Germany and parts of Italy, and it only happened in the span of a couple nights. The origin of Kristallnacht started in an unpredictable way, had a huge effect on people, and still…

Throughout all of World War II and the Holocaust, the Nazis relied on the use of concentration camps to carry out the Final Solution, exploit the Jews and other undesirables, and use what they stole to be able to fund their involvement in the war. The Nazi rulers were able to train their own versions of troops and create an elite association of men who ran the concentration camps. The SS was made of men who were able to kill people at point blank. By the times these men were done with training,…

Thus the Nazi regime was forced to assess the pogrom largely as a failure. On November 12, 1938, more than one hundred representatives of the economy, the party, and the government came together at a conference chaired by Hermann Göring (1893-1946) at the Reich Aviation Ministry. The conference aimed to devise other ways to continue the isolation, the economic exploitation, and the expulsion of the Jews ... In a gesture of cynical opportunism, it was also decided that Germany’s…

Compared with the Violin Concerto no. 1 op. 77 (1948), and Quartet no. 4 op. 83 (1948), the oratorio Song of the Forests op. 81 is seemingly foreign due to the optimistic atmosphere of the oratorio, the simple melody, the modes, and the original text of the song no. 7 that praises Stalin as a gardener. Therefore, the oratorio Song of the Forests op. 81 has a widely accepted staple as a proof of Shostakovich’s ultimate submission to the regime. The analysis shows that the oratorio also has…

Claus von Stauffenberg was conceived in Jettingen, on fifteenth November, 1907. His dad was Privy Chamberlain to the King of Bavaria, and his mom was granddaughter of the Prussian general August Wilhelm Anton Graf von Gneisenau (1760-1831). As a young fellow he was an individual from the Hitler Youth. A brilliant understudy, at nineteen he turned into an officer cadet. Alan Bullock, the creator of Hitler: A Study in Tyranny (1962) has contended: "He (Claus von Stauffenberg) was a splendid…

The term “degenerate” was coined during the Third Reich as a way to describe the physically, mentally, or socially unfit within Nazi Germany. The prime example of that comes to one’s mind is the exclusion and attempted extermination of the Jews during Hitler’s reign. Exclusion within Germany is not solely limited to members of the Jewish faith however. While it is true that the Jews were the most ostracized group during the Third Reich other so called “degenerates” such as the Sinti and Romas,…

The demise of the Jews is something that is taught in schools and described in history books yet few people know what led up to the eventual annihilation of six million Jews living in Europe, Russia and Poland. What started off as a thought with “good intentions” by Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party turned out to be one of the deadliest genocides in history. The events that initiated the “final solution” can be traced back to the Nuremburg laws created and enforced by Adolf Hitler and his party.…

The Evacuation from Dunkirk was the largest, and most successful military evacuation in world history. Over 330,000 soldiers were evacuated from the beaches of France after a failed attempt at defending it from the Nazi occupation. When the Germans invaded France in 1940, the British sent soldiers to help in the defence of the country. German tactics and technology allowed the Nazis to beat back the French and the British to the coast line. Not being able to counter-attack, the British…
