Everyone knows that no country would have benefited from the rule of the Nazis, no nation would have been enriched materially or spiritually as a result of their rule. All over the world, this ideology is recognized as the most cruel and terrible in history, because it makes people guilty from birth only for the blood that flows in their veins.

Even in modern life in a number of countries, politicians are trying to revise the results of the Second World War, and there is a gradual whitewashing and revival of Nazism.

At the same time, it is important to remember that this ideology brought losses and destruction not only to those who opposed it, but also to those who created it. And then, more than half a century ago, the huge Nazi machine was stopped and destroyed. Soldiers of different nationalities fought shoulder to shoulder and were able to win.

At the same time, we are talking not only about soldiers and civilians who perished during hostilities. As you know, millions of people died of starvation or were tortured to death in concentration camps.

In 1962, it was decided to appoint an international memorial date - the Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Fascism. This date was set for every second Sunday in September.

It should be noted that September was not chosen by chance. After all, two extremely important dates of the Second World War are connected with this month. So, on September 1, 1939, this terrible bloody war began with the German attack on Poland, and on September 2, 1945, it finally ended. The Nazis, as you know, invaded the territory of our country on June 22, 1941.

The Second World War

World War II swept almost the entire world, 62 states took part in it, and in total at that time there were only 73 countries in the world. Military operations were conducted on the territory of three continents and in the water space of four oceans. The results of the war were the highest degree tragic. Historians have calculated that the total human losses reached 50-55 million people, 27 million of them were killed on the fronts. Most people died in the USSR, China, Germany, Japan and Poland. The economies of these countries have also suffered greatly.

Everyone knows that the second world war unleashed by the German fascists, who dreamed of world domination. Their leader and main ideologist was the Nazi Adolf Hitler.

The word "fascism" itself comes from the Italian fascio. which can be translated as "bundle, bundle, union." This political science term implies specific far-right political movements, their ideology, and political regimes of dictatorial type headed by them.

The pernicious influence of this political phenomenon was fully felt by a large number of countries of the world. However, not a single country, not even Germany itself, was benefited by fascism.

Hitler

Hitler was appointed head of the German government on January 30, 1933. He began to pursue his own policy, an important part of which was anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism is a negative attitude towards Jews, hostility and prejudice towards them, which are based on religious or ethnic prejudices, is a kind of xenophobia.

On August 2, 1934, the President of Germany, Hindenburg, died. After that, the presidency in the country was abolished. Hitler received the powers of the head of state as the "Führer and Reich Chancellor". This gave him the opportunity to start seizing the territories of other states and unleash one of the greatest wars in the history of mankind.

Hitler began mass persecution of Jews and Gypsies. They were deprived of civil rights, later, already during the Second World War, their physical extermination began. In history, this phenomenon has been called the Holocaust. Hitler was determined to completely exterminate the nation of Jews. As a result, 60% of European Jews and about a third of the Jewish population of the whole world were destroyed.

In addition, about a third of the gypsy people were also destroyed. Homosexuals, followers of some religious sects, black people from Africa living in Germany, mentally ill people and the disabled were also subjected to total extermination.

German concentration camps

During the war, concentration camps were built in the territories occupied by Germany. These death camps were intended to hold prisoners of war and exterminate thousands of people. At the same time, the Nazis were constantly working on improving the technologies for the mass destruction of people.

The Nazis also performed inhumane medical experiments on victims of the Holocaust, which often resulted in death. Such extermination continued until the surrender of Germany. It must be said that the Nazis considered not only Jews, but also Poles, Russians and other Slavs as an "inferior race" that must be conquered. They wanted to make us slaves and then destroy us.

In 1933, the first concentration camp was established in Germany. It was built on the outskirts of the town of Dachau. Not far from Weimar, the infamous Buchenwald concentration camp was built in 1937.

Fascism

Fascism is this terrible ideology that has turned the lives of millions of people around the world into hell. There is no state that would benefit from Nazi rule. The ideology of Nazism brought collapse both to its creator and to all those who suffered from the actions of its followers.

During the war, soldiers from different countries fought together against fascism and still won, however, at the cost of huge losses.

International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Fascism is usually celebrated in every country that took part in the war. All celebrations and entertainment events are cancelled. Flowers and wreaths are laid at numerous memorials and monuments, cemeteries are visited. On this day, in many countries there is a tradition to visit and care for unmarked, abandoned and mass graves.

In Russia, every year on the International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Fascism, people remember all the innocent victims of fascism, and also honor the memory and merits of Russian soldiers. This date is very important for the Russians, because. we must never forget the feat of our people. We can say that this war, one way or another, touched almost every family in our country.

Our people managed to survive five years of hunger, constant fear, uncertainty, bombings, evacuations and other horrors of war.

We managed to survive only thanks to the fortitude and heroism of the Russian soldiers. They did the almost impossible, because the enemy army was better equipped technically and had more advantages in military strength, supplies and uniforms.
