I think the general concensus is that in the context of Nazi Germany and the territories occupied by it, a death camp is a special case of concentration camp.
tfielding is correct. Auschwitz-Birkenau was the death camp and it was a separate facility from the main Auschwitz camp. It is accurate to call Auschwitz a concentration camp, but one of several that also had a death camp.
Auschwitz is the name for a complex of concentration camps, consisting of three main camps and dozens of smaller camps. One of the three main camps (Auschwitz II or Auschwitz-Birkenau) was a death camp, but the other two were more 'normal' concentration camps.
The Northern half of France was occupied by Germany. The Southern half wasn't occupied, but became a puppet state of Germany. This state was Vichy France, with its capital, Vichy.
Free France didn't control any part of European France until 1944. Free France actually meant the French colonies that didn't submit to German rule when their motherland was occupied.
Also many men are not interested in war, such as myself. I do think war is probably a more popular interest among men though, all the war nerds I've met have been blokes (not that that's statistically relevant obviously)
People can also be interested in war generally or in specific wars because they are incredibly significant historical events that indelibly shape the spheres in which we live our lives and because the study of history is broadly pretty important, even if it can get gruesome.
My dad was 6 when Roosevelt was first elected President in 1932. He grew up thinking that the President was president for life, 'cause all he knew was it was always FDR.
Please accept Nanjing as an option even if you don't change the answer appearance. Wikipedia refers to it as the Nanjing Massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanjing_Massacre
It was a secret project the US military worked on that involved using a bomb that would deploy bats.
That's not a typo; the bomb in question was designed to hold 1,040 Mexican Free-Tail Bats in a hibernated state; the bomb, when dropped, would release the bats and they would go and roost all over the area. Each bat had an incendiary bomb that was set to a timer, and in theory when they went off they would cause fires everywhere. Describing it, this does sound ridiculous, but in context it *could* have worked- given that most Japanese buildings were made out of primarily wood, incendiary bombs would be particularly devastating
