Antisemitism was one of the essential beliefs of the Nazi ideology. It was aimed towards the Jews living in Germany and oriented towards making their living conditions so harsh that they would end up leaving the country.

The first notable law regarding Antisemitism came in April 1933, with the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service, which restricted Jewish professionals from working under certain job positions. As a result of this, numerous companies executed layoffs that involved Jewish workers. Cultural organizations also started denying membership to Jewish people.

Afterward, came The Law for the Protection of German Blood and Honor which prohibited the marriage between Jews and Aryans (People of German ethnicity) and the Reich Citizenship Law which took away the legal citizenship and rights to all Jews.

These laws were an open intent from the Nazi government to labe the Jwas as an undesirable race that by no means should living under German territory.
