There were 42,500 Nazi ghettos and camps spanning Nazi-controlled areas from France to Russia.
The massive Nazi-camp network during Hitler’s reign from 1933 to 1945, was much larger than previously thought.
The documentation, previewed at an academic forum in January at the German Historical Institute in Washington, stunned leading Holocaust researchers in attendance.
“The numbers are so much higher than what we originally thought,” said Hartmut Bergoff, director of the institute. “We knew before how horrible life in the camps and ghettos was, but the numbers are unbelievable.”
The documented camps include not only “killing centers” but also thousands of forced labor camps, prisoner-of-war camps, sites euphemistically named ‘care’ centers, where pregnant women were forced to have abortions or their babies were killed after birth; and brothels, where women were forced into having sex with German military personnel.
Lead editors on the project, Geoffrey Megargee and Martin Dean, included data from some 400 contributors, and now estimate that between 15 and 20 million people died or were imprisoned over the course of Nazi occupation.
Their findings are published as part of a multivolume encyclopedia. The Holocaust museum has published the first two, with five more planned by 2025.
When the research began in 2000, Dr. Megargee said he expected to find perhaps 7,000 Nazi camps and ghettos, based on “postwar estimates.’
But the numbers kept climbing—
-first to 11,500,
then to 20,000, then 30,000, and now 42,000.
Dr. Dean said the findings leave no doubt in his mind that many German citizens, despite frequent claims of ignorance after the war, must have known about the wide-spread Nazi abuse at the time.
“You literally could not go anywhere in Germany without running into forced labor camps, P.O.W. camps, concentration camps,” said Dean.
“They were everywhere.”

My comment:
Nazism did not rule in a vacuum. The support for Nazism has its original base in Replacement theology, taught in the Roman Catholic cult for 1500 years.
Already at the so-called Church councils, Judaism and anything Jewish were forbidden.
The very idea was sown among “Christians”, that God of the Bible had finished His relationship with the Jews. That the Jews were no longer His chosen people, and the Jews rather was under a curse.
Church going Christians were told by their leaders, that all the Biblical promises given to the Jewish people was transported to the “Church”. Supporters of the Vatican cult were now the the “true Jews”, or God’s people.
When you take Replacement theology to its logical conclusion, you will eventually get Nazism. Even in our days, Jews are presented as a problem, because neo-Nazis of different colors, claim Jews occupy land that “its not theirs”.
Are you one of the “Church going neo-Nazi’s” who talk like this?
Hitler established Nazi-Churches, where this evil ideology was preached. Today, Europe is submitting to the same lies.
I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars – I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.
Large popular support for this evil, even inside Churches, made it possible for the Nazis to run 42.500 “support centers “ from Ukraine in the East to Catholic Spain in the West.
Behold: Jesus the Messiah loves the Jewish people. The eternal promises give to them by Father, Son and Holy Spirit are eternally valid. Can not be canceled, neither by priests, nor by pastors.
Christian leaders who can not accept this, have been deceived to follow a copy-cat Messiah, who can not not save anyone.
