Killings in the Soviet Union
Orders to kill
After the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union, the Einsatzgruppens main job was still to kill civilians, like they did in Poland.
However, this time, Heydrich ordered the Einsatzgruppen to kill:
Commissars (officers in the Soviet government)
All top and middle-ranking members of Comintern, a group that supported world communism
All top and middle-ranking members of the Communist Party
All extremist Communist Party members
All Jews that held jobs in the government or the Community Party
Between July 8 and July 17, Heydrich also ordered the Einsatzgruppen to kill:
All male Jews between the ages of 15 and 45p.
All Jewish prisoners of war from the Soviet Red Army
All Red Army prisoners of war from Georgia and Central Asia, since they might be Jews toop.
All of the Roma people they could find, and all people with mental illnesses
The Red Army retreated.
However, Heydrich thought there were Soviet guerrilla fighters still in the area and thought local Jews were helping them.
He ordered the Einsatzgruppen to encourage anti-Jewish pogroms in the newly occupied territories.
Pogroms (some of which the Einsatzgruppen started) broke out in Latvia, Lithuania, and Ukraine.p.
526 Within the first few weeks of Operation Barbarossa, 10,000 Jews were killed in 40 different pogroms.
By the end of 1941, about 60 pogroms had happened, killing up to 24,000 people.p.
All of the main Einsatzgruppen took part in mass shootings from the beginning of the war.pp.
196–202  At first, they shot only adult Jewish men.
However, by August, they were shooting all Jews, including women, children, infants, and the elderly.
At first, they killed people in firing squads.
When this became too slow, the Einsatzkommandos began to shoot larger groups next to, or even inside, mass graves.p.
207  As news about these killings spread, many Jewish people ran away.
The Nazis began to send people to concentration camps and ghettos.
Rural areas were mostly Judenfrei (free of Jews).pp.
211–212  The Nazis created forced labour gangs so they could make use of the Jews as slaves until the Nazis had killed them all.
The Nazis had put off that goal until 1942.pp.
212–213
Killings in the Baltic States
Einsatzgruppe A worked in the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.
These countries had been occupied by the Soviet Union before the Nazis took them over.
Einsatzgruppe A killed about 140,000 people between June and November 1941.p.
When Einsatzgruppe A entered Kaunas, Lithuania, a pogrom was happening.
They let all of the criminals out of jail and encouraged them to join the pogrom.
In four days, 4,000 Jews were killed in the pogrom.p.
The head of Einsatzgruppe A let a violent anti-Semitic man named Viktors Arājs start a smaller Einsatzgruppe called the Arājs Kommando.
Together, the two groups killed 2,300 Jews in Riga, Lithuania.
Within six months, the Arājs Kommando killed about half of the Jews in Latvia.
Groups like the Arājs Kommando were created in Lithuania and Estonia too.
With their help, Einsatzgruppe A was able to kill almost every Jew in its area.p.
Rumbula massacre
In November 1941, Himmler decided that Latvians were not being killed fast enough.
He wanted to move Jews from Germany into Latvia.
He ordered that everyone living in the ghetto in Riga, Latvia, be murdered.pp.
206–209
The Nazis told the people in the ghetto they were being sent to another place to live.
They told them to bring their things and valuables.pp.
208–210
The Nazis moved people towards a nearby forest a thousand at a time.
They shot people who tried to run away or could not walk fast enough.
They took the things the Jews had brought with them, and made them take off their clothes.
Then, fifty at a time, they made the victims lie down in a mass grave and shot them.pp.
In two days, about 25,000 people were murdered by the Einsatzgruppen.pp.
210–214
Killing with poison gas
After a while, Himmler realized that the Einsatzgruppens methods were not the best way to kill people as quickly and cheaply as possible.p.
197  He also found that many Einsatzgruppen had trouble killing so many people.
Some had physical and mental health problems, and others became alcoholics.pp.
52, 124, 168  Himmler made a final decision after watching a mass execution in August 1941.
He decided that shooting Jews was too stressful for his men.pp.
547–548
Himmler decided that the answer to this problem was to kill Jews (and others) with poison gas.p.
167  Starting in 1942, all of the main Einsatzgruppen began killing people using gas vans, which had been used to kill people with disabilities early on in Action T4.
In these vans, carbon monoxide exhaust fumes from the vans' engines were pumped into the back of the truck, killing the victims inside.
However, by September 1941, Nazis at Auschwitz concentration camp had begun experimenting with Zyklon B, a cyanide-like pesticide.pp.
280–281
At the Wannsee Conference on January 20, 1942, the Nazis officially decided to kill all of the Jews in Europe (11 million people).
Some would be worked to death.
Others would be killed in extermination camps (death camps).().p.
555-556  The Nazis created death camps like Auschwitz-Birkenau and Bełżec extermination camps with the goal of killing as many people as possible, as quickly as possible.
These death camps replaced the Einsatzgruppen as the Nazis' main strategy of mass murder and genocide.pp.
279–280
At first, the Einsatzgruppen were sent to fight partisans  people in Nazi-occupied territories who continued to fight back against the Nazis.p.
248  However, by 1944, most Einsatzgruppen had become part of Waffen-SS fighting units or sent to guard death camps.
Jäger Report
The Einsatzgruppen kept careful records of their mass murders so they could write reports to their supervisors.
The Commander of Einsatzgruppe A filed the Jäger Report on December 1, 1941.
it talks about Einsatzgruppen As actions in Lithuania.
The report says that Einsatzgruppen A killed 137,346 people.p.
215  Most were Jews, but others were communists, criminals, and other Nazi "enemies.
126  Starting in mid-August, when 3,207 people were murdered, the victims included children.p.
In February 1942, Jäger changed his estimates of how many people the Einsatzgruppen killed.
He said there were 138,272 victims, including:p.
48,252 men (35%)
55,556 women (40%)
34,464 children (25%)
Jäger also said that only 1,851 of the victims (1.3%) were not Jewish.p.
Other reports
Many other papers and reports written by the Einsatzgruppen talk about how many people the different units killed.
For example, one researcher looked at over 200 Operational Situation Reports (reports from the Einsatzgruppen to their bosses about what they were doing).
He also looked at letters and reports written by Einsatzgruppen bosses.
He found that as of 1942, Einsatzgruppen A, B, C, and D had killed almost a million people:
Xenophilius Lovegood is a fictional character of the Harry Potter series.
He is the father of Luna Lovegood (friend of Harry Potter), and the editor of The Quibbler, a magazine in which he writes the things that just he believes,  such as Nargles and Crumple-Horned Shortsnack.
However, during the Second Wizarding War, his magazine published reliable news, to the point that most people switched to it for news.
Only when his daughter was kidnapped that the Quibbler started to turn against Harry Potter.
Lovegood was played by Rhys Ifans in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Bartolomé de Las Casas (1484 – 1566), known as the Apostle of the Indies, was a 16th century Spanish priest and writer, and the first Bishop of Chiapas, Mexico.
Las Casas was the Dominican priest who condemned the treatment of Indians in the Spanish empire.
His widely disseminated 'History of the Indies' helped to establish the Black Legend of Spanish cruelty.
Bartolome de Las Casas was born in Seville, Spain in  1484.
He was there when Christopher Columbus went to Seville in 1493 after Columbus' first trip to the Americas.
His father, Pedro de las Casas, and his uncle went to the Americas in the second voyage of Columbus that left in November 1493.
With his father, he went to the Caribbean island of Hispaniola in 1502 together with Nicolás de Ovando, the new governor of the island.
In 1506 he went to Rome, Italy, where he became a Catholic priest.
He went back to Hispaniola in 1508 and moved to Concepción de la Vega, in the Cibao valley, and got an encomienda (land with the indigenous people living there).
Then he went in 1513 to Cuba and the governor Diego Velázquez gave him an "encomienda".
But soon Las Casas began to understand that the native people (Taínos in Cuba and Hispaniola) were treated as slaves in a very bad way, and he began to defend the native people.
In 1515 he went to Hispaniola, and from there to Spain to defend the native people of the Americas.
From 1517 to 1523, and with the title Protector of the Indians, he tried to develop a model settlement in northern Venezuela to protect the native people but the experiment failed.
From there, he went to Hispaniola, joining the Dominican Order (an order of Catholic priests) in 1523.
He stayed in the city of Santo Domingo until 1527 when he was sent to Puerto Plata, on the northern coast, to found a new religious community and where he began to write his History of the Indies.
He became Bishop of Chiapas, Mexico, from 1544 to 1547.
He wrote a book about the abuse of Indians called A short account of the destruction of the Indies.
The book was finished in 1542 but it was not released as a book until 1552.
It is his most famous book.
He went to Spain and he stayed here until he died in 17 July 1566 in Madrid.

Maerten van Heemskerck or Marten Jacobsz Heemskerk van Veen (1 June 1498 – 1 October 1574) was one of the best known Dutch portrait and religious painters of the 16th century (1500s).
He became famous for a series of coloured prints of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Marten van Heemskerck was born in the town of Heemskerck, near Haarlem in Holland.
Marten was apprenticed to two painters  in Haarlem, but was called home by his father to help with the farm work.
Marten ran away from home, and in a single day travelled 50 miles to the town of Delft.
He found another master to teach him painting, but soon left him as well.
He then went to Haarlem where from 1527 to 1529 he worked with a painter called Jan van Scorel.
One of the artists who influenced Marten van Heemskerck at this time was Jan Mabuse who had travelled to Italy and had seen the paintings of famous artists from Florence and Venice.
Marten began to copy the style of Mabuse's paintings.
In 1532 he went to Italy and spent several years going from town to town, looking at the artworks and making drawings of what he saw.
The city that was to have the most influence on Marten van Heemskerck was Rome.
He was very interested in the ruins left from the time of the Ancient Romans.
He made many drawings of the ruined buildings and other things that he saw.
His sketchbooks, which are now in a museum in Berlin are very important evidence for showing what Rome was like in the 1500s.
One important building that he drew was St. Peter's Basilica which had been begun, but never completed.
The most famous artist who was alive at this time was Michelangelo.
He was mainly a sculptor but he had spent five years painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.
Like everybody else, Marten van Heemskerck thought it was amazing.
He was so influenced by the figures that Michelangelo had painted that he designed a series of pictures called "Twelve Panels showing Strong Men from Mythology and Biblical History".
Like the series of the "Seven Wonders of the Ancient World" they are well known as prints made from "engravings" (they are printed from a metal plate with the design cut into it).
When van Heemskerck was in Rome in 1536, he got work as a "scene-painter".
This is like a person who paints the scenery in a theatre.
Charles V had coming to Rome and was going to have a "triumphal procession".
The streets of the city were decorated with archways for the emperor to pass under.
Van Heemskerck worked with Antonio da San Gallo, Battista Franco and Francesco Salviati.
The writer Giorgio Vasari saw some battle scenes that he painted and wrote that they were well composed and boldly painted.
He returned to the Netherlands and lived at Haarlem where he settled down and married twice.
After that, he only left Haarlem for a short time, in 1572, to go to Amsterdam because the Spanish had invaded Haarlem.
In 1540 became president of his Guild of Painters.
He became a rich and well-known painter.
When he died, he left some money in his will to be paid to a bridal couple who would get married on his tomb.
This custom was believed to bring peace to the dead person.
He also left some land to help an orphanage in the city.
Many works by Marten van Heemskerck can still be seen.
They include "Adam and Eve", "St. Luke painting the Madonna and Child"  and a painting of Jesus in the museum in Ghent, Belgium.
These pictures were done before he went to Italy.
In the 1550s he painted several altarpieces which can be seen in the museums of Delft, Haarlem and Brussels, as well as lives of St. Bernard and St. Benedict.

He was a good finder of asteroids, finding 122 in all, from 136 Austria in 1874 to 1073 Gellivara in 1923.
Some of the notable asteroids he found include 153 Hilda, 216 Kleopatra, 243 Ida, 253 Mathilde, 324 Bamberga, and the Amor asteroid 719 Albert.
From 1866 to 1870, Palisa studied mathematics and astronomy at the University of Vienna; however, he did not graduate until 1884.
Despite this, by 1870 he was an assistant at the University's observatory, and a year later gained a position at the observatory in Geneva.
A few years later, in 1872, at the age of 24, Palisa became the leader of the Austrian Naval Observatory in Pola.
While at Pola, he found his first asteroid, 136 Austria, on March 18, 1874.
Along with this, he found twenty-seven minor planets and one comet.
During his stay in Pola he used a small six-inch refractor telescope to aid in his research.
Palisa named some of the asteroids after his family: (320) Katharina after his mother, Katherina, (321) Florentina after his daughter Florentine.
His second wife is Anna.

A nuclear power plant is a type of power station that generates electricity using heat from nuclear reactions.
These reactions take place within a reactor.
The plant also has machines which remove heat from the reactor to operate a steam turbine and generator to make electricity.
Electricity made by nuclear power plants is called nuclear power.
Nuclear power plants are usually near water to remove the heat the reactor makes.
Some nuclear power plants use cooling towers to do this.
Nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel.
When the reactor is on, uranium atoms inside the reactor split into two smaller atoms.
When uranium atoms split, they give off a large amount of heat.
This splitting of atoms is called fission.
The most popular atoms to fission are uranium and plutonium.
Those atoms are slightly radioactive.
The atoms produced when fuel atoms break apart are strongly radioactive.
Today, fission only happens in nuclear reactors.
In nuclear reactors, fission only happens when the reactors parts are arranged properly.
Nuclear power plants turn their reactors off when replacing old nuclear fuel with new fuel.
There are about four hundred nuclear power plants in the world, with many in the United States, France, and Japan.
Some famous accidents at nuclear power plants were the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan, 1986 Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine, and the 1979 Three Mile Island accident in the United States.
An Anti-nuclear movement in Australia opposes the making of any nuclear power plants in the country.

Charing Cross Hospital was set up in Villiers Street, London, in 1823.
It became known as Charing Cross Hospital in 1827.
It was set up after Dr. Benjamin Golding started a meeting in 1818.
It was originally built in Central London but it was moved after World War II.
It reopened on Fulham Palace Road in 1973.
The hospital was designed and built by Decimus Burton.
It was much bigger and more modern than others at the time.

It is a teaching hospital for students.
It has 15 floors.
8-1-1 is a telephone number in the United States and Canada.
In the United States, 8-1-1 is the number to call to find underground power cables, gas pipes, and other utilities.
This lets people avoid them while they are digging.
Underground cables and pipes can be damaged by digging tools.
A damaged gas pipe can leak, which is very bad.
8-1-1 used to be a direct line to the business office of the telephone company giving service on the line.
Once a person has called, they could do different things, such as pay their phone bill, talk to Customer Service, or get another phone line.
In 2007, it was put together with 6-1-1.
American Airlines Flight 11 was the first hijacked airplane of the September 11 attacks.
It crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
The American Airlines airplane was a Boeing 767.
It was scheduled to fly from Logan International Airport in Boston to Los Angeles International Airport.
Fifteen minutes after takeoff, the hijackers forced their way into the cockpit.
One of the hijackers was a trained pilot.
He took the controls of the aircraft and flew it into the North Tower.
The hijackers were members of the terrorist group Al-Qaeda.
All 92 people on the airplane died in the crash—11 crew members and 81 passengers; 5 of them were hijackers.
The time of the crash was 08:46 Eastern Daylight Time.
Many people in the street saw the crash.
A few people were able to capture the moment of impact; Jules Naudet, a French cameraman who was filming a movie, and Pavel Hlava, a Czech immigrant.
Additionally, a webcam set up by Wolfgang Staehle at an art exhibit in Brooklyn that took pictures of Lower Manhattan every four seconds, and a newscamera that was left on the ground also captured the crash.
The crash and the fire that started right after it made the North Tower collapse within 102 minutes.
The attack killed nearly 3,000 people and injured thousands of people.
It left a profound mark on American history and changed airport security.
The aircraft flying American Airlines Flight 11 was a Boeing 767-200ER.
Even though it could carry a maximum of 158 passengers, the September 11 flight carried only 81 passengers and 11 crew members.
Flying the aircraft was pilot John Ogonowski and first officer Thomas McGuinness.
The flight attendants were Barbara Arestegui, Jeffrey Collman, Sara Low, Karen Martin, Kathleen Nicosia, Betty Ong, Jean Roger, Dianne Snyder and Madeline Sweeney.
Mohamed Atta, a member of terrorist group al-Qaeda and leader of the attacks, and another hijacker, Abdulaziz al-Omari, flew together from Portland, Maine to Boston early on September 11, 2001.
Both hijackers had first class tickets for a flight to Los Angeles, California.
Three other hijackers, Waleed al-Shehri, Wail al-Shehri and  Satam al-Suqami arrived at Logan International Airport by car.
All five checked in and by 07:40, were aboard the aircraft which was supposed to leave at 07:45.
Mohamed Atta sat in business class with Abdulaziz al-Omari and Suqami.
Waleed al-Shehri and Wail al-Shehri sat in first class.
The aircraft taxied away from Gate B32 and departed Logan International Airport at 07:59 from runway 4R after a 14-minute delay.
It is thought that the hijacking of the plane started at 08:14.
This was when the pilot and first officer stopped talking with air traffic control at Boston.
Two minutes later, the aircraft stopped flying along the route it was supposed to.
No more radio replies came from the aircraft and the system in the aircraft used to avoid crashing into other aircraft was also switched off.
Flight attendants Ong and Sweeney contacted American Airlines with AT&T airphones during the hijack.
They said the hijackers had hurt two of the other attendants and killed an Israeli passenger.
During the long four-minute call, Ong told the airline which seats the hijackers were sitting in and said no-one could get into the cockpit.
At 08:23:38, Atta tried to talk to the passengers from the cockpit but he pressed the wrong button and sent the message to air traffic control.
He said that "[They] have some planes, just stay quiet and you'll be okay.
We are returning to the airport."
A minute later he said, "Nobody move.
Just stay quiet."
Air traffic control realized the aircraft had been hijacked and they called the Federal Aviation Administration.
Soon after, Atta announced "Nobody move please, we are going back to the airport, don't try to make any stupid moves."
Five minutes later, Boston air traffic control called North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).
NORAD ordered two F-15 fighter aircraft to catch the flight, but it was too late—American Airlines Flight 11 had already made its last turn towards Manhattan and crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center more than six minutes before the fighter aircraft had taken off.
At 08:46:40, the hijackers crashed Flight 11 into the northern side of the North Tower (Tower 1) of the World Trade Center.
The aircraft, traveling at about  [or 404 knots] and carrying about 10,000 U.S. gallons of flammable fuel, hit between the 93rd and 99th floors of the North Tower.
In all, 92 people on board were killed.
Because of the angle the airplane struck, people could not escape from at or above where the aircraft had crashed.
All stairs and elevators from the 92nd floor to at least the 99th floor were blocked by fire or debris, trapping 1,344 people.
Hundreds were killed right away by the impact.
The rest either were trapped and died from the fire, smoke or the collapse of the tower, and some even died after they jumped or fell out the windows of the burning building.
More than one elevator shaft carried the burning fuel downward, exploding on the way down.
Jules Naudet, a French cameraman filmed the crash.
A webcam set up at an art exhibition in Brooklyn to take pictures of Lower Manhattan, every four seconds, also filmed Flight 11 crashing into the North Tower.
News organizations first reported an explosion at the World Trade Center.
CNN interrupted a commercial at 08:49 with the headline that read "World Trade Center Disaster."
President George W. Bush was arriving at an elementary school in Sarasota, Florida when he was told about the crash.
The president said, "This is pilot error.
It's unbelievable that somebody would do this.
The guy must have had a heart attack."
The first news reports believed that the crash had been an accident until Flight 175 crashed into the South Tower at 09:03.
After the crash
After the crash, the North Tower burned and collapsed in on itself.
Although the crash caused much damage, the fire caused by jet fuel was blamed for the damage and collapse of the tower.
Hundreds of rescue workers also died when the tower collapsed.
Rescue workers at the site started to find remains of bodies from the victims of Flight 11 soon after the attack.
Some workers found bodies strapped to airplane seats.
Other workers discovered the body of a flight attendant with her hands tied up.
That meant that the hijackers may have used handcuffs.
Within a year, remains of the 33 victims that had been on Flight 11 had been identified.
They identified two other Flight 11 victims, lead flight attendant Karen Martin and another person, after body remains were discovered near Ground Zero in 2006.
In April 2007, examiners using newer DNA technology identified another Flight 11 victim.
The remains of two hijackers, who could have been from Flight 11, were also identified and removed from Memorial Park in Manhattan.
The remains of the other hijackers have not been identified and are buried with other unidentified remains at Memorial Park.
In a video recording found months later in Afghanistan, al-Qaeda's leader, Osama bin Laden, seemed to say he planned the attack.
He said he believed part of towers would collapse.
The flight recorders, or tapes that record useful flight data, for Flight 11 and Flight 175 were never found.
After the attacks, the flight number for flights on the same route at the same takeoff time was changed to American Airlines Flight 25, and a Boeing 757 was used instead of a Boeing 767.
An American flag was flown on the jet bridge from which Flight 11 departed from Logan Airport.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2, also called Sonic 2, is the second video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
It is a sequel to Sonic the Hedgehog.
It was made by Sonic Team and published by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive in 1992.
Unlike the first game, it has a half-pipe special stage and has seven chaos emeralds (see "chaos emerald") instead of six.
It also introduces Miles "Tails" Prower.
Development of the game began in November 1991.
The game was developed by both Japanese and American staff at Sega Technical Institute.
After the release of the original Sonic the Hedgehog, creator Yuji Naka quit Sega due to disagreements over corporate policy.
Mark Cerny, who had recently created Sega Technical Institute (STI) inCalifornia, met with Naka in Japan.
He offered Naka a higher salary and more creative freedom if he joined STI.
Naka agreed.
Hirokazu Yasuhara, the lead level designer of Sonic the Hedgehog, also decided to join STI.
Story and Gameplay
The game's story is that Dr. Robotnik has flew to another island, and it's up to Sonic and his new friend, Tails, to stop him.
The doctor has found 7 special gems and they grant him ultimate power.
The player must take him down.
The gameplay is similar to the first Sonic the Hedgehog game.
The player can run, curl up into a ball and jump, and perform a new move, the Spindash.
The spindash is a move where Sonic can curl up, gain energy, and roll at high speeds.
At the end of the game, the heroes can be seen flying in the air.
The game has variety in its gameplay, with a flying section in a plane level.
Because of the popularity of its predecessor, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 already had a fanbase waiting for its release.
The game received a lot of praise, and it was a bestseller in the UK charts for 2 months.
As of 2006, the game had sold over 6 million copies.
This makes it the second best-selling game on the Sega Genesis.
Electronic Gaming Monthly said it was the best Genesis game of 1992.
United Airlines Flight 175 was the second hijacked airplane of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
The flight was traveling from Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts to Los Angeles International Airport in Los Angeles, California.
It crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
The plane was hijacked by five members of al-Qaeda.
The plane was a Boeing 767.
56 people (including 5 hijackers) and 9 crew members died in the crash.
The time of the crash was 9:03 Eastern Daylight Time.
Unlike American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the North tower 17.5 minutes earlier, Flight 175 was the only plane seen live on television because of the media attention drawn to the scene from the crash of Flight 11.
The aircraft used in the attack was a Boeing 767-222.
The aircraft had a registration of N612UA, and it was built in 1983 by Boeing.
The airplane could seat 168 passengers in total (10 seats in first class, 33 seats in business class, and 125 seats in economy class).
On this particular flight, 56 passengers (5 of which were hijackers), and nine staff members.
All together, United Airlines Flight 175 carried 65 people on the morning of September 11.

Folk rock music is a mixture of folk music with modern rock music.
Folk rock began in the mid 1960s with performers like the Byrds.
Folk singer Bob Dylan created a sensation at the 1965 Newport Festival when he used electric guitar in his performance.
This led to many groups wanting to play folk music in the rock style.
These groups included Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span, Pentangle and Alan Stivell.

John Henry "Bonzo" Bonham (31 May, 1948 – 25 September, 1980) was an English rock drummer.
He was best known for being a member of London hard rock band Led Zeppelin.
Bonham is considered one of the greatest rock drummers of all time.
John Bonham's career started in 1967, when he joined the Band of Joy with singer Robert Plant.
After having some success, the band broke up.
At around the same time, another band called The Yardbirds also broke up.
Soon after this, Jimmy Page, the lead guitarist for the Yardbirds, decided to start a new band.
This new band, called Led Zeppelin, had Plant on vocals, John Paul Jones on bass and keyboards, Bonham on drums and Page playing guitar.
After playing some small gigs throughout England, the band came out with their first album, named Led Zeppelin I. John Bonham's talents can be heard on such songs as "Good Times, Bad Times", featuring his single bass drum skip throughout the song.
Soon after this, the band left for a tour of America, on Boxing Day (26 December 1969).
After a rather successful tour, Zeppelin came out with their second album, naming it Led Zeppelin II.
This album included the song "Moby Dick", which had a famous drum solo by Bonham.
Throughout the solo, Bonham showed off his talents by playing hand drums while continuing to use his right foot.
By this time, Led Zeppelin was becoming more well known.
With the release of their third album (not surprisingly named Led Zeppelin III), they became one of the biggest bands in the world.
Bonham's featured song on this album, which he wrote, was "Out On The Tiles".
Led Zeppelin later released the albums Led Zeppelin IV (which was originally unnamed), Houses of the Holy, and Physical Graffiti.
During this time, Zeppelin was touring non-stop.
In addition to still playing "Moby Dick", Bonham also received attention for his work on songs such as "Four Sticks", "The Ocean", and "In My Time Of Dying".
Soon after Physical Graffiti, the band took time off because Robert Plant was injured in a car crash.
In this time off, besides spending time with his family and tinkering with cars, Bonham was working on their next album, Presence.
On 24 September 1980, Bonham was picked up by his personal assistant, Rex King.
They were going to a rehearsal for the upcoming tour.
During the day, Bonham drank many alcoholic beverages.
After the rehearsal the band left and went to Page's house.
The next day, Benji LeFevre, Led Zeppelin's new tour manager, and John Paul Jones found Bonham dead.
The coroner ruled that Bonham had drank forty shots of vodka, and his cause of death was pulmonary edema.
Bonham had vomited in his sleep, and suffocated on his own vomit.

The River Ozama is a river in the eastern part of the Llano Costero del Caribe (in English, "Caribbean Coastal Plain").
Its overall length of 148 km makes it the fourth longest river in the Dominican Republic, and its watershed (2,685 km²) is the fourth largest of the country.
Ozama is a Taíno word.
Bartolomé de Las Casas always wrote Hozama.
When he wrote, the "H" represented the letter "J" and was pronounced (similar to the English "H" in house, home).
There are several words in the Dominican Republic with that H: Haina-Jaina, Haití-Jaití.
Writers of the 16th century wrote Hosama and Osama.
But later the H disappeared completely.
The sources of the Ozama are in the Loma Siete Cabezas mountain (in English, "Seven Heads Mountain"), the highest mountain of the Sierra de Yamasá mountain range.
It flows east through the Monte Plata province and then slowly bends southeast, forming part of the limits between the Santo Domingo and Monte Plata provinces.
Near the municipality of San Luis, it is joined by the River Yabacao and then turns to the southwest.
