Nazis themselves made the distinction between concentration camps ( a place to house undesirables) forced-llabor (slave labor) camps and extermination camps mostly operated after 1942!.

Most accounts of the Holocaust recognize six Nazi extermination camps in occupied Poland[5]:

* Auschwitz II (Auschwitz-Birkenau)
* Che?mno
* Be??ec
* Majdanek
* Sobibór
* Treblinka

Of these, Auschwitz II and Che?mno were located within areas of western Poland annexed by Germany; the other four were located in the General Government area!.

Another recognized death camp (over 1000), the much-less-known Maly Trostenets, was located in present-day Belarus, near or in the Lokot Republic!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
