Answer:

- The “Final Solution” plan was a plan that happened during WWII to exterminate Jewish people in Nazi-occupied Europe. It was the most deadly phase of the war and it caused the destruction of Jewish communities in continental Europe. The plan was based on the belief that Aryans were in power and the race should be preserved, therefore gypsies, Freemasons, Jehovah's, and Jews were considered “inferior races”. Homosexuals, mentally deficient and incurably ill people were also targets of this plan. These people were forced to relocate into ghettos, their property was taken, and after they were moved to concentration camps. The healthy ones were forced into labor, the weakest ones were killed. It is estimated that 11 million people were killed during the Final Solution Plan.

- The Germany military participated in Nazi crimes, including the Final Solution Plan. The military perpetrated crimes against civilians and prisoners of war and also facilitated the Plan.

- Citizens in a certain way also helped the Plan, first because some of them were supporters of the Nazi regime, not because they believed they were racially superior, but because Hitler came to power by saying that the outcome of WWI was unfair to Germany, and many Germans agreed with that. Also, concentration camps were located in remote areas so it was not the visible for the major urban population.

- The Plan only ended with the end of War, the American troops and Soviets troops liberated a series of concentration camps at the end of the war, many prisoners were abandoned by the Nazis.
