Germany during WWII (1939–1945)
- This progressed from:
- Legal and social discrimination (1933–1935): Jews were excluded from government jobs, professional positions, and public life, and the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 removed citizenship and banned intermarriage with non-Jews.
- Economic and cultural exclusion (1936–1938): Jews were forced out of businesses, schools, and cultural institutions, with property confiscated and ‘Aryanisation’ policies implemented.
- Violence and intimidation (1938): Kristallnacht marked a major escalation, with synagogues and homes destroyed, thousands of Jews arrested, and terror used to enforce compliance.
- Segregation and preparation for mass murder (1939 onwards): Jews were confined to ghettos, forced to wear identifying badges, and stripped of property and rights, laying the groundwork for the Final Solution and systematic genocide.
