It was not like Auschwitz where numerous gas chambers killed thousands everyday. But Bergen-Belsen was no less cruel or horrifying. Most died at Bergen-Belsen from being shot, hung, starved to death, or killed by disease. This camp did not fit the standard organization of a concentration camp. It had several camps that segregated the prisoners. Camp officials even traded important prisoners, including Jews, in exchange for money from different governments. Bergen-Belsen was unique in many ways, but it was still a camp where thousands suffered and died under the harsh hand of Nazi leadership.\u201d \u2013 Holocaust Survivors and Remembrance Project \u2013 isurvived.org<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org\/jsource\/Holocaust\/Belsentoc.html\" >Concentration Camps: Bergen-Belsen \u2013 Jewish Virtual Library<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eiu.edu\/~eiutps\/holocaust_bergenbelsen.php\" >Bergen-Belsen \u2013 Teaching the Holocaust with the Primary Sources \u2013 eiu.edu<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fold3.com\/page\/94047639_bergenbelsen_concentration_camp#description\" >Fela Warschau Describes liberation by British forces at Bergen-Belsen [1995 interview] \u2013 Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp \u2013 fold3.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>1936<\/strong><strong>\u00a0 <\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_Prime_Ministers_of_Greece\" >Prime Minister of Greece<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ioannis_Metaxas\" >Ioannis Metaxas<\/a> suspends <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hellenic_Parliament\" >parliament<\/a> and the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Constitution_of_Greece\" >Constitution<\/a> and establishes the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/4th_of_August_Regime\" >4th of August Regime<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>4<sup>th<\/sup> of August Regime:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/4th_of_August_Regime\" >4<sup>th<\/sup> of August Regime \u2013 Wikipedia<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/metaxas-project.com\/4th-of-august-regime\/\" >The Nature of the 4<sup>th<\/sup> of August Regime \u2013 by P.J.
