The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, established after World War II, outlined rights that all individuals should have regardless of where they live. This was a direct result of the war, as the genocide conducted by Nazi Germany severely limited the rights of individuals all over Europe. The systematic killing of individuals showed that a list of rights that all individuals should have was needed.
