The registration of the Nuremberg laws in Nazi Germany, enacted in 1935, served to institutionalize discrimination against Jews and other marginalized groups. These laws defined who was considered Jewish based on ancestry, stripping Jewish individuals of their German citizenship and prohibiting them from marrying or having intimate relations with those of "German or related blood." The Nuremberg laws marked a critical step in the Nazi regime’s systematic persecution of Jews, laying the groundwork for further dehumanization and violence. This legal framework contributed significantly to the horrific events of the Holocaust, which resulted in the genocide of six million Jews.
