During the 1930s and 1940s, death camps were established by Nazi leaders.
In these camps were Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, Communists, Slavs, and all those who
were seen as inferior to the Aryan race. Those people unlucky enough to be deported
to one of the camps would be either shot, gassed, or given lethal injection, and
then thrown into burning pits. The several death camps are:
