Planned Destruction of Warsaw

The plan to completely destroy Warsaw of everything and to wipe it off the face of the Earth was called, The Planned Destruction of Warsaw. This plan was thought out by the Nazis and their leader, Hitler. All of the Nazis wanted to get rid of this old, city because this new race needed a town to begin. After the war, the Nazis would destroy this well-known city of everything and raise it to its foundation. Around 1939, this new plan was born when Adolf Hitler was in a architectural bureau in Würzburg. He saw an architectural drawing of a new town that would replace Warsaw. In 1939, the killings had started and things got serious. The very next year, the Nazis divided Warsaw up into three sections. One section had only Jews, the second section had only Polish civilians, and the third section had the German population. As you can tell, this city had been quite the center of attention. Still that year, the top part of Warsaw had become a Jewish Ghetto with high brick walls and towers overlooking the enclosed area. Over the next years, many of the population was killed or had been very lucky and escaped. In 1942, barely of the ghetto's captive civilians were still alive by staying low, working for the Nazis as laborers for the war, or hiding. Later the next year, the ghetto had been emptied and the final destruction of the ghetto began. This triggered the Ghetto Uprising. The uprising failed, and the Warsaw ghetto was burned to the ground. In 1944, the Warsaw Uprising began because thousands of people were murdered during that year. Because of the Warsaw Uprising, the city was held under close watch by the Nazis by bringing in military units to guard and control. Through the uprising, the remaining population was ordered to be murdered and killed. About 60% of the population was killed. A few days after the Uprising, the city of Warsaw was in flames. After all of the people were killed, now came the second part of the destruction. The remains of the broken down city, Warsaw, were to be destroyed even farther. After the war the city was to be nothing but a plain military train transit. A year after the Uprising, almost 90% of the buildings were destroyed. This event changed the whole of Poland, let alone Warsaw. Of course, the city of Warsaw was rebuilt and was a brand new living museum about what happened during World War Two. Everywhere you look you see the old town. This new Warsaw was a very replica of the Old Warsaw, but better with new technology.
