Aryanization is a process that was used by the Nazis and other groups during World War II. It was a way for them to take control of businesses owned by Jewish people. The Nazis would look for Jewish-owned businesses, then force the owners out and take them over. This was done so that the wealth and property of Jewish people could be taken away and given to people who followed the Nazi beliefs. Aryanization was discrimination and a way for the Nazis to hurt Jewish people.
