| In
September of 1942 a group of 200 Romani were transferred from
Buchenwald to build the Gypsy camp at Birkenau. About 20,000
of the 23,000 Romani transported to Birkenau between 1942 and
1944 were killed there. By
the end of the war, between 70% and 80% of the Romani population
had been killed by Nazis. Yet Romani were conspicuously absent
at the war crimes trials after the war.
