After the war, many Jews were left without homes or families. Their homes had been taken over by non-Jews while they were gone. Many survivors lost most or all of their family members.
Jews who survived the Holocaust were often placed in Displaced Persons Camps.
Many emigrated once they were able. Jews emigrated to Israel, the Jewish Homeland created by the United Nations in 1948. Many emigrated to the United States and elsewhere.
