What if Germany is able to achieve all of its military goals in Europe during World War II? It controls all of Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals. How far would it go to extend the Holocaust in a post-war world?

From what I've gathered, the "Final Solution" was in connection with the so called "living space" mandate of the Nazi regime regarding the German race.
Trouble is that once they've finished with the Jews then Gypsies, it will be easier to expand the Death Camps to all the other nations of conquered Europe on the grounds of how simple and easy it was in regards to the Jews & Gypsies.
According to Wikipedia, no more than 500'000 personnel where involved in the day to day running of these Death Camps and they still managed to liquidate a minimum of up to 6 to 7 million victims in around 4 to 5 years.
With a victory in Europe and the manpower surplus from the peace, it wouldn't take long to liquidate a majority, if not the whole population of Europe.

IMO they would not kill that many more than they inteded in OTL. Jews and Gypsies would probably be allmost destroyed in area under their control ( maybe not in Italy, Sweden, Finland, Spain and Portugal trough ).
Big number of Poles, Russians, Belarussians and Ukraineans will be killed too- smaller number will be germanised.
Czechs and Slovenians will be either deported or germanised.
It can kill everyone it pleases in the territory it controls. Killing people isn't very hard. You can shoot them, starve them, gas them, work them to death.. A victorious Germany would result in the greatest bloodbath the world has ever seen. Jews and Gypsies don't stand a chance, there would be none left very swiftly. Of course, most deaths would be Slavs. I suspect the Czechs and Poles would all be dead or Germanized within a decade. Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians would probably take a bit longer as it's further away from Germany and they'd be fighting a constant guerrilla war in those territories.
