Answer: Genus

The Genus is the second lowest of the main taxonomic ranks and the first of the two names used in binomial nomenclature. It is also the lowest rank that has a single, unambiguous word for each possible instance; species and lower ranks require that the genus be named as well and the second word does not necessarily have to be unique.

As an example, the names of many domesticated animals use "domestica" or "domesticus" for the species.

Answer: Germany

Infamously known as the Nuremberg laws, the 1935 legislation by the National Socialist government of Germany was the first major step towards the legal discrimination of the Jewish population. The first law declared the requirements for German citizenship and excluded Jews from obtaining or retaining citizen status and the second one, entitled "Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor" effectively prohibited marriage, cohabitation and even domestic employment between Jews and Germans.
