Introduction
It had been nearly three centuries since the last war had occurred in Inguana. Many believed wars would never happen again, and that there would always be peace.
Malaya, a thirteen year old girl, had many ancestors from a historical place called Europe. Her family was of Jewish ancestry and many were killed in the Holocaust.
Inguana’s dictator, Sir Ettin, required all schools to read and research the Holocaust. Many adults believed that a Holocaust was going to happen again. Sir Ettin executed all of those people. Malaya’s father was one of them.
Sir Ettin ruled over two million people. The most popular religion in these days was Christianity, but nearly a quarter of the population was Jewish. These were the only two religions allowed, although Jews were not liked. The Jews had to go to a different school than the Christians. They were only to be taught by Jewish teachers. They were only allowed in “Jews Only” places. They had a separate park, a separate city to live in, separate everything. Nearly 250,000 Jews had to fit in a city all to themselves. Many families had to live together in the same house. Malaya was lucky and only had to live with her mother.
Christians and Jews were not allowed to communicate with each other. If they did, the Jews were executed. The Christians stayed alive.
For the people that did not believe the Holocaust was going to happen again, they would be in for the biggest shock of their lives.

It always blows my mind when people segregate based on religious beliefs...or anything else, for that matter.
People who are biased just wind up causing more problems.
Nice piece!
