Original Note:
While the term "Holocaust" is often used casually to refer to the persecution of all the Nazis' victims, it was originally used to describe specifically the Nazi genocide of the Jews. Whether the academic term should be officially expanded is of fierce scholarly debate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_the_Holocaust#See_also https://www.annefrank.org/en/anne-frank/go-in-depth/what-is-the-holocaust/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1983/04/10/what-the-term-holocaust-has-come-to-mean/1c0dc753-3013-4209-ac72-425fc15595b1/
