the holocaust-
mass genocide. targeted jews, people who helped jews, dark skinned people, homosexuals
approximately 6 million Jews were killed. total number of victims up to 17 million
mass killing vs. genocide-after a specific group of people and it's systematic (examples: gas chambers, firing squads, etc.)
inferior people according to hitler: jews, gypsies, mentally/physically handicapped people, slavic people, polish, homosexuals, communists/socialists, dark skinned people, mixed races, Jehovah's witnesses
HItler didn't particularly like Japan becauses they had dark skin, but he respected them and was willing to work with them because he thought they could help each other out.
Lebensborn-Fount of Life: this was trying to promote having Aryan children because the aryan race was the "chosen race" rumored that they were raping the women, but it was more of the women volunteering because they were treated very well if they did when their countries were taken over..
lebensraum- "living space" they were trying to take over some of Russia so they would have somewhere for all the newborn Aryans to live.
