The Nazi's policy of genocide was extremely well planned. Following Germany's defeat in World War I, the country faced a slew of economic setbacks. The Treaty of Versailles called for reparation payments totaling what would be $519 billion today. The treaty also required Germany to disarm its military forces and return territories it invaded in WWI. In order to pay reparations and due to a lack of funds, the Weimar Republic began printing money at an alarming rate in 1922. By 1923, hyperinflation had taken hold of the currency, and people's savings had vanished overnight. The Great Depression struck in 1929, exacerbating an already dire economic situation. Hitler offered to restore the German economy and was elected Chancellor in 1933. Instead of blaming Germany’s problems on the aftermath of WWI and the international financial depression, he “scapegoated” the Germany’s Jewish citizens. The Nazis created a massive, anti semitic public relations campaign to blame Germany’s Jewish citizens for the nation’s issues. Things became violent only after these Nazi methods failed and this gave rise to The Final Solution. This Nazi plan came to be in the 1940s and called for total annihilation of the Jewish people. Extermination of Jewish people happened in every country the Nazis invaded in Europe. Three million Jewish people lived in Poland and once it was invaded, the Nazis built all 6 death camps in Poland. Throughout most of the war, the Nazis were able to carry on their plan without public outcry.
