Farmers had to work had to do extremely well to keep in track. Ever sense foreign counties have been more sensitive. The many people that were lost in the destruction of world war 1 was a cultural despair. The Nazi party The Nazi took over Germany to end the democratic system.

Anti-Semitism The history of the Europeans and Germans was a terrible history. The holocaust had taken place of the murder of European Jews that was caused by the Germans. Violent riots were caused by the Jews a lot of times. Germans thought that the Jews were disloyal citizens. The holocaust was know as "the era of destruction" because of the death of the Jews which is known as genocide.

Anti-Semitism exists because of the hatred of Jews. The Germans hated the Jews because they weren't full blooded (pure) German. The Germans thought that they worshiped the wrong person. They lied about the Jews preforming rituals with Christian blood. This is why anti-Semitism exists to the Germans.
