How did the Holocaust lead to the creation of Israel?

During the Holocaust, millions of Jews were put in concentration camps. This resulted in millions of deaths. After Nazi Germany was defeated by the Allied forces in 1945, the Jews who lived through the atrocities wanted a safe place to live. The British Mandate of Palestine was a strip of land in the middle east that Jewish people considered their "homeland." The United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine declared that the British Mandate of Palestine would would be split into two new countries: Israel and Palestine. The Partition Plan passed through the United Nations. Israel declared independence soon after.

The creation of Israel could have been achieved without the Holocaust, however due to the Zionist movement and the reparations from the Holocaust given by West Germany to Israel boost the creation of the new State of Israel.
