Before Adolf Hitler came into power, Germany was a suffering country. Going through the Great Depression in 1929, Germany was struggling with one in three Germans unemployed and needed another option to turn to for help, this became Hitler’s chance. Another factor that contributed to Hitler’s rise to power was the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was unhappy with the Treaty of Versailles at the time because it included loss of land and humiliated the Germans, and Hitler promised to rid of this and change Germany for the better.
As Hitler promised so many things, he convinced one in three Germans that he would take his plans all the way; this gained the Nazi party many votes. After the Nazi party became the largest party, Hitler became Chancellor.

This means that only one race, nationality or type of person could live in the country, and this would be the ‘ideal’ German. Hitler went to extreme lengths to ensure that the Jews and communists were wiped out of Germany. In Hitler’s eyes, only people with blonde hair and blue eyes were accepted, other people were “enemies.” Between 1933 and 1938, Jews were denied of civil rights. All German Jews lost protection of the law, physical violence was the main method used to exterminate the Jews. From March 1933, Hitler ensured that there were storm-troopers standing outside of Jewish stores to turn customers away. The following source A is an image of a storm-trooper organising the boycott of a Jewish shop in 1933. In April, all Jews were forced to give up their jobs. From September, Jews were not allowed to buy or own land. 1935 was a very bad year for the Jews as they were excluded from restaurants, parks, public pools/rivers and public buildings. Jews and communists weren’t allowed to vote from 1935. The Nuremberg Laws banned marriages between Jews and non Jews. The Nuremberg Laws 1935 state “1. Marriages between Jews and citizens of German or kindred blood are hereby forbidden. Marriages despite this ban are void. 2. Extramarital intercourse between Jews and citizens of Germany or kindred blood is forbidden.” In this time, Jews were constantly insulted in schools, newspapers and everywhere they went. Hitler was a very racist man and discriminates people by their looks, as a ruler, this was extremely out of
Hitler and the Nazi Party rose to power and were against a weak democratic government. The Germans were desperate for a strong leader to restore their national pride and to turn around their economy. In 1934, Hitler was proclaimed the “Fuhrer” or leader and became the dictator of
Hitler rose to power using propaganda speeches. Giving Germany many promises which most he did not keep, promising them he would overturn the treaty and stop the reparations and give them back their pride. Hitler was widely supported, particularly by industrialists, for his promise of stability and strong government. He also promised to re-militarise Germany by recruiting a large army which was able to reduce unemployment and also built up a new navy and air force. This promise also made him popular both with the unemployed and the military. Hitler began to appeal to the Germans emotions rather than their reason, telling them what they wanted to hear so they ignored the violence brought on from the Nazi party. Hitler established many concentration camps for the Jewish and other he believed were a threat to Aryan supremacy. This resulted in over six million deaths in the Holocaust. Hitler believed Aryan people and Germany were destined to rule the world and that they needed ‘living space’ meaning anyone who was not German or Aryan blood should not be living there; this is what brought in the concentration camps. Hitler also believed you didn’t have a say unless you were German and he couldn’t believe that Jewish people could be German. He wanted to create a new super human race and in his attempt to do so he even murdered those who were physically or mentally ill. He wanted to create a new Germany with a generation of
For a while Hitler worked in Traunstein at an old prisoner-of-war camp. He spied on a meeting held by a small organization called Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. Anion Drexler, the leader, noticed Adolf when he spoke up during the meeting. Hitler became its seventh member. Hitler began as the group’s organizer, but then became the spokesman when he “was able to draw almost two thousand people to a DAP event” (Witherbee 1).
Dictators their are bound to be one or two in a lifetime,but the only thing you need to know is that dictators are persistent and they always get what they want who ever they have to hurt .
During the Holocaust six million Jews died at the hands of a despicable man; Adolf Hitler. While many perished in the extermination camps, malnutrition, disease, execution and medical experimentation were other methods of the Jews annihilation. In 1933, before WW II there were approximately nine million Jews living in Germany. By the end of WW II six million Jews had died. In this paper the researcher will attempt to give accurate accounts as to how Adolf Hitler came to power, why he killed innocent people, and where the carnage began. The researcher will attempt to accurately show when the Holocaust began and who was affected by one man and his follower’s beliefs of their superiority over others.
Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party rose to power during the period of time right before and during World War II. Although Hitler caused many injustices and deaths, the Germans still looked up to and admired him. German citizens saw him as a leader who brought nothing but positive changes to their country. Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party were appealing to the Germans due to Hitler’s potential of stabilizing Germany’s economy, Hitler’s favorable ideas, and the nationalism Hitler was able to bring about.
“Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, which was on Easter Sunday. Adolf was one of four children but none of the other children lived past two years of age. After Adolf was born, his mom, Klara, had two more kids who did live to be older than two. Adolf’s mom, Klara, had been traumatized by the death of her first three children, causing her to go crazy”. Klara always worried about Adolf dying. Adolf also had two half brothers and sisters from his dad Alois Hitler. Alois Hitler was never a big part of Adolf’s life and he struggled with that. Adolf had a dream of being an artist, but that did not match the government job his dad wanted him to have. People say that Hitler was a mean man because of his dad and his early life. His dad would get drunk and go crazy on his family, this is not a way to grow up, and it certainly impacted Hitler and history. “When his father died Hitler roamed the streets dreaming of his future as an artist. When Hitler was 18, he tried to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, but was rejected twice this caused him a lot of frustration.” When Hitler was 25 he was part of the military and served in World War I, this allowed him to release some of the anger and frustration. “While in the army Hitler was wounded twice, once by gas. This is said to be the reason he went a little crazy. While in the war this is when he started to hate the Jews. Hitler said, while in the war that the Jews were everywhere and he began to hate them more and more as he saw
“Germany will either be a world power or will not be at all.” (Hitler 137) Hitler was driven by his hunger for power, causing the death of millions of innocent people. No one could have known the dramatic effect this man would soon have on the world.
Adolf Hitler wasn’t always a horrible person. He wasn’t always torturing innocent victims. He was once a victim himself. Traumatic experiences in his adolescence life led him to being the way he was.
During the 1930’s Germany was at an all time low as the worldwide economic depression hit Germany hard. The confidence in Germany from the people was lacking due to the fresh memory of their defeat in World War I. This caused great need of a new leader, someone who could give the people change, and Adolf Hitler knew he could do just that. His rapid rise to power began when he started to promise things that intrigued the German people. He promised the hopeless and needy a better life, and promised opportunities that were exactly what the people needed. This caught the attention of so many young unemployed and middle class people. His party, known as the Nazi Party, won 33 percent of the votes in the 1932 elections. And by January 1933, Hitler was appointed chancellor, which was the head of the German government. Germany started to feel like they might've found the leader they'd been so desperate for.
Because of my beliefs and religion, I was abused and mistreated. My religion is a Jew and the leader behind this abusement was named Hitler. He absolutely despised Jews. He wanted every last Jew to be struck down, and he had armies to do so. Germany and Europe were the main places, Jews were under attack at, from the Nazi’s, aka Hitler’s Army. A Lot of my friends and family members were taken away because of this event.
With how things had stacked up, it was easy for Hitler to become a new, well-liked leader with his party. Many Germans were defeated and were easily swayed with what Hitler promises to give them. He promised those who were acutely disappointed in their nation a new and better life and a “glorious Germany” “Hitler Comes To Power”. On the 30th of January in 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor that brought an end to the German democracy “Nazi Rule” and from there “many Germans [had] believed that they had found a savior for their nation” “Hitler Comes To Power”. Hitler’s party wasn’t as well known before the depression struck, but the party soon appealed to those who were unemployed, young, and those in the lower-middle-class “Hitler Comes To Power”. In Hitler’s first months of being chancellor, he forced “workers, employees, and employers…into Nazi organizations” “Nazi Rule”. By adding more people and growing his party, Hitler was able to rebuild Germany. He was originally denied many things, due to the Treaty of Versailles. He was limited to only 100,000 men in his army, have six warships max, etc. Hitler ignored the treaty and proceeded to rebuild Germany by having and getting what he needed to reshape Germany in-order to having it become an efficient country. He had factories
Adolf Hitler, one man, hungry for power, caused a horrific event that changed the life of millions. Hitler and his party of Nazis rose to power with a dream of ending all Jews. His hatred caused the murder of six million Jews. This mass murder is known as the Holocaust. The Holocaust dated from 1933-1945 occurred in almost every country in Europe. This era was a decade of pure evil. The Holocaust is one of the most frowned upon events in world history and will always be remembered as a melancholy time period.
Adolf Hitler, the chancellor of Germany in 1933-1945, was a veteran of WWI. Germany faced serious economic hardship and national humiliation after being defeated in the war. Meanwhile, Hitler, as a patriotic and radical leader of the Nazi Party, started to make promises to save the country and giving hope to the citizens. The public was mesmerized by his positive and confident image. With their great support, Hitler finally seized power and became the Führer of Germany in 1933.
