Hitler wanted to start taking over Europe before conquering the world. He also wanted to make his people happy by getting rid of the "unwanted" citizens. No one ever really liked the Jews, so people would make Jews their scapegoats. According to Oxford Dictionary, a scapegoat is, "a person who is blamed for the wrongdoings, mistakes, or faults of others, especially for reasons of expediency." Hitler decided, in order to dissolve the Jewish population, why not blame the Jews for all of their problems? So Adolf Hitler started speaking out about the Jews. His supporters just basked in the glory because they knew that everything they did wrong, wasn't their fault. It was the Jews'.
It first started out with the Nazis putting the Jews in concentration camps. But in early 1939, The Nazis started transporting the Jews into Ghettos. This was a great way to get rid of Jews, but then the Jewish population grew overwhelmingly high in these places, so the Nazis made designated camps that were specifically made for murdering Jews. Hitler had over 15,000 camps in 16 countries where he kept the Jews.
Hitler also had a designated camp for the famous actresses, musicians, artists and so on. This camp was called Theresienstadt. The Nazis had allowed and made mandatory for the gifted to perform in front of a camera to show that everyone in the camps were alright and not in bad condition. This was obviously a lie that was a propaganda effort designed to fool the Western allies.
