The Wannsee Conference was an event that took place during World War II on January 20, 1942 in a small suburb of Berlin called Wannsee. This conference was organized by Reinhard Heydrich, head of the Nazi security police (also known as the SS) and was attended by many senior officials of the Nazi regime. The conference was organized with the aim of discussing and implementing "the final solution to the Jewish question" as it relates to Europe's Jewish population. The minutes of this conference were drawn up and are now known as the Wannsee Protocol. Even before the Wannsee Conference, Jews were already being executed by the Einsatzgruppen, or otherwise known as the mobile extermination units of the SS. Anti-Semitism and persecution of Europe's Jewish population became more common during the Nazi rise to power in 1947. In 1920, the Nazis published their 25-point party program. For example, point four says: “Only those who are our compatriots can become citizens. Only those with German blood, whatever their beliefs, can be our compatriots. Therefore, no Jew can be a compatriot. The Nazis' goal was to create a master race throughout Europe called the "Aryan Race" or Germanic Race. To achieve this plan of a "master race", the Nazis stated that they intended to separate groups that the party considered dangerous and inferior to society. These groups included European Jews, Gypsies, the disabled (mentally and physically), and the deaf and blind. The Nazi government's main target remained the Jews of Europe, whom it considered "not as a religious group, but as a poisonous 'race,' which 'lived at the expense' of other races and weakened them." As a result, many Europeans are responsible for the war crime of the Holocaust. Even before the Wannsee Conference, Jews in German-occupied European countries were already being murdered by Jewish hands. Nazi members. The Wannsee Conference was used by the Nazis as a way to get all Nazi Party members and German-occupied countries on the same page so that they could successfully implement their "Final Solution » and rid all of Europe of the “Jewish problem”. The Wannsee Protocol played an important role in the Nuremberg war crimes trials, as according to the History Channel, "the minutes of this conference were written with meticulous care, which later provided key evidence during the Nuremberg war crimes trials. more people died because of the Wannsee Conference alone, even though we know that the total number of people killed during the Holocaust was over six million..
