"Genocide" is a term used to describe the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. It involves acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a specific group of people. Genocide can take many forms, including mass killings, forced displacement, torture, sexual violence, and other inhumane acts intended to eradicate the targeted group.

The term "genocide" was coined by Raphael Lemkin in 1944 and is legally defined by the United Nations in the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. According to the Convention, genocide consists of acts such as killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group, deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the group's physical destruction, imposing measures to prevent births within the group, and forcibly transferring children from the targeted group to another group.

Notable examples of genocide include the Holocaust during World War II, the Armenian Genocide during World War I, and the Rwandan Genocide in 1994, among others. Genocide is considered a grave violation of international law and human rights, and perpetrators can be held accountable by international courts and tribunals for their actions.
