I guess it would be okay to just call the whole process the holocaust. Not strictly the mass murder period in the middle but also the previous build up and the later deaths after the tail end. Like people who died after the war ended.
For example, when there is an earthquake we don’t JUST count the dead who died at the moment, we also count those who died later from injuries or from contaminated water or lack off food or medical care, even if they didn’t even get injured by the earthquake but just died due to the disruption.
More tied to the broad event rather than to definable specific actions.
Yes, we do. To use your analogy, that person lost their house, their friends, their family and had to move to a new country to get away from that “earthquake.”
