In the Soviet Union and in Poland, the ghettos were in a part of a city that’s dirty, an overcrowded street, usually for the poor, and an area that people would try to avoid living in. The Jews were forcibly sent to live there and to leave there home and were required them to live among strangers. Armed forces were essentially just Jewish society that were showing resistance and were fighting to the Nazis, guards, and people that were racially prejudiced and that find objectionable things of Jews.
