How Well Do You Know World War II and the Nazis?

What year were the Nuremberg Race Laws announced by the Nazis?

a) 1936

b) 1937

c) 1938

d) 1939

The correct answer is c) 1938.

The Nuremberg Race Laws were announced by the Nazis in 1938. These laws served as the legal foundation for the systematic persecution of Jews in Germany, making them second class citizens and stripping them of most of their political rights.

By implementing these discriminatory laws, the Nazis aimed to create a racial hierarchy with the Aryan race at the top and marginalized groups like Jews at the bottom. This was a precursor to the horrors of the Holocaust that unfolded during World War II.

Understanding the historical context of the Nuremberg Race Laws is crucial to comprehending the gravity of the atrocities committed by the Nazis during this dark period in history.
