When did the Holocaust ended?

The Holocaust ended when the various camps were liberated by the Allies, mainly in 1945. By 9 May 1945 it was over, though liberated prisoners were still dying of disease and malnutrition.In areas under Nazi control the Holocaust continued right up to the end of the war in Europe. Obviously, in mid and late 1944 some areas had been liberated, and there the Holocaust was over. For example, in July 1944 the Soviet Army liberated the first really big camp - Majdanek (in the suburbs of Lublin, Poland).At the time of liberation, many prisoners were desperately ill and many died of disease soon after their camps were liberated, despite all efforts to save them.

What is a difference between the way Nazi prisoners VS Japanese prisoners were treated in the World War 2 camps?

Aside from things like living conditions, food provisions and killing of prisoners of war, a big difference was the issue of forced labor. Nazi Germany never introduced forced labor for its (Western) Allied prisoners-of-war, while Japan did. A major cause of the very big difference in the general treatment was, that Germany treated captured soldiers simply as people who had fought and lost, while japan considered and treated Allied soldiers who had surrendered as people who had lost their honor and in consequence, any right to humane treatment. This shows in the fact that Germany had signed and largely adhered to the Geneva Convention regarding prisoners of war, while Japan never signed it, except for the treatment of wounded prisoners, the only kind of prisoners who in their view had retained their honor.

What happened if men were captured by the enemy in world war 2?

They were held as prisoners of war. What that entailed depended upon the "enemy" who caught them. In Britain we often made prisoners of war work, but on the whole we treated them fairly well. In Japan many prisoners were treated extremely badly and were frequently tortured.
