Question

Which of the following is not a reason for the Holocaust taking place?. .

age-old ethic hatred toward the Jews in Germany.
the Treaty of Paris.
Aryan racial theories and policies.
silence of world powers in not condemning the Nazis

Answer 1

Answer: the Treaty of Paris.

Ethnic hatred towards the Jews had been present in most of Europe for centuries, and it had a decisive role in the Holocaust. Aryan theories and ideas of racial purity were also important in Nazism, and largely drove the desire for genocide. Finally, the silence of other countries when facing the rise of Nazism made it possible for the ideology to become incredibly powerful. However, the Treaty of Paris had no impact in the Holocaust.

Answer 2

The Treaty of Paris, a treaty between Spain and the United States, was not a reason for the Holocaust taking place.
