The Nuremberg Trials


The Nuremberg trials were trials to bring the Nazi to justice for their crimes against the Jewish people. They put the twelve most prominent Nazis on trial for the crimes. Most claims were that they were just following orders from their superiors. Hitler did not show up at the trials because he had committed suicide before they took place. The trials not only took place in Germany but in many other countries as well. For example, Adolf Eichmann was found and was found guilty in Argentina.
In December 1942, the Allied leaders of Great Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union “issued the first joint declaration officially noting the mass murder of European Jewry and resolving to prosecute those responsible for violence against civilian populations,”

  1. How many Nazis were put on trial in Nuremberg?
  2. Would you believe that they had a choice in their actions prior to the trials?

    1. There were twelve Nazi party members to be put on trial
    2. They were probably capable of making their own decisions but chose not to

    1. 12 Nazis were put on trial.
    2. Yes they had a choice, but if their goal was to survive their best bet was to follow orders.
