How/why did the world allow an event like the Holocaust to happen?


Sagot :

Answer:

Following the Enlightenment (late seventeenth century – early nineteenth century), there was a growth in nationalism. The rise in nationalism intensified the rise in antisemitism, which had also been growing since the Enlightenment. The First World War (1914-1918) strengthened these feelings of nationalism across Europe, as nations were pitted against each other.
