#5: the nuremberg race laws
according to the nuremberg laws of 1935, how did the german government decide if someone was jewish?
The 1935 Nuremberg Race Laws defined Jewishness not by religious practice, but by ancestry. The government used strict genealogical criteria: a person was classified as Jewish if they had three or four fully Jewish grandparents. Even if a person did not practice Judaism or had converted to another religion, they were still legally considered Jewish based on this ancestral standard.
