japanese extermination camps



This is a image of the Japanese American Extermination Camps. Several labor camps were converted to death camps, and other death camps were established .Inmates were  murdered.Stalin, despite his numerous faults did not establish any death camps although many thousands died in their labor camps.In 1943 several work camps were converted to death camps, and several other death camps were established in Nazi-held Poland and Czechoslovakia. They were forced to leave their home and go to the camps. They had to sell their homes and they could only bring what they could carry.

Because the great state of California refuses to have ANYTHING TO DO with train companies that sent people to WWII prison camps!

This is a picture showing the people being sent into the Japanese extermination camps. They could only take stuff they could carry with them. They were forced to leave all their loved ones during world war 2.




Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration camp and extermination camp in operation during World War II. It was about 1,000,000 to 2,500,000 prisoners died while held at the camp. This is where people lived when they were sent to this camp and  barely had food so they end up dying.

 They were happy at first but after the war they werent happy again.


After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, military officials began to to look for signs in the Japanese American community for spying. They also sent spys to see what they were doing . Still it was recommend that Japanese should be removed from their homes.  President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942. This order gave the armed forces the power to establish military zones. It also gave them the power to force people or groups to leave these zones. The  goal of the order was to remove people of Japanese heritage from the western United States.
