On the eve of World War II, Warsaw's Jewish population was 375,000 comprising nearly 30% of the capital's total population.The Warsaw Ghetto uprising was a popular general revolt, and the first of its kind in occupied Europe during World War II. The fighters knew they had no chance to survive. Their battle was a final outcry directed at the world, an act of rage and revenge.
