• Hitler and the Nazis ran this and put Jews in torture camps
• Hitler wanted not only all Jews off the earth but also gays and disabled

THE CHANGE CAUSED

• For many years Germany would not allow anything ww2 related
• Germany was ashamed of the actions of Nazis and that is still true today

• There are still concentration camps for you to visit in & around Germany
• This will be a constant reminder of the actions of Germany.
