Correct answer: Thousands of Jewish people were arrested.
Brief explanations:
- Thousands were rounded up on Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass, 9–10 Nov 1938); roughly 30,000 Jewish men were arrested and many were sent to concentration camps (e.g., Dachau, Buchenwald, Sachsenhausen).
- While some arrestees were transported to camps, the large-scale, systematic deportations by train to killing camps occurred later in the war.
- The building of ghettos began after Germany’s conquests in Poland (1939–1940), not on Kristallnacht.
- Kristallnacht was not a “final chance” to escape; it intensified persecution and encouraged emigration but did not offer a formal escape opportunity.
