  Nazi concentration camp badges - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nazi concentration camp badges, made primarily of inverted triangles, were used in the concentration camps in the Nazi-occupied countries to identify the reason the prisoners had been placed there.
The color red was probably chosen because it represented the communists, the political enemies that the Nazis hated most (and the first to be officially outlawed).
However, the Nazi definition of "Jew", according to the Nuremberg Laws, included those of Jewish ancestry, and so it was possible for such people to actually hold other religions.

 Concentration camp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Camps for prisoners of war are usually considered separately from this category, although informally, and in some other languages, they may also be called concentration camps.
Although large numbers of prisoners were concentrated there in horrific conditions from 1863 to 1865, and perhaps a quarter of them died, the prisoners were combatants and the camp is generally classified as a POW camp.
Concentration camps for Jews and other "undesirables" also existed in Germany itself, and while not specifically designed for systematic extermination, like the extermination camps, many concentration camp prisoners died because of harsh conditions or were executed.

 Concentration camp - Psychology Central   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
Until Nazi Germany set up concentration camps whose objective were either to use political opponents as forced labor (labor camps) or to kill them (extermination camps), the term was used relatively literally to mean simply a camp where a group of prisoners were concentrated, although conditions may have been less than ideal.
Since the nature of Germany's so-called "concentration camps" became known (see below), the term is sometimes used as propaganda, with greater or lesser justification, to imply that a camp is designed to exterminate, rather than merely to concentrate, its inmates.
Under Nazi occupation, the Natzweiler-Struthof camp, in Alsace, was one Nazi-runconcentration camp on French soil during the Second World War -- the three departments of Alsace-Lorraine (Haut-Rhin, Bas-Rhin and Moselle) had been annexed and incorporated into the Third Reich.

In the English-speaking world, the term "concentration camp" was first used to describe camps operated by the British in South Africa during the Second Boer War.
The term concentration camp was coined at this time to signify the "concentration" of a large number of people in one place, and was used to describe both the camps in South Africa and those established to support a similar anti-insurgency campaign in Cuba at roughly the same time (see below).
Still another one was camp Westerbork, which served as a transit camp (Durchgangslager) of Jews (Dutch and refugees) and Gypsies to extermination camps of Auschwitz and Sobibor.
