Munich Beer Hall Putsch During the night of November 8th 1923 Hitler and his storm troopers lead by Hermann Göring broke up a meeting in a Munich Beer Hall at which the Bavarian leaders Kahr, Lossow and Seisser attended. He then ordered these three high officials of the Bavarian government into a back room forced them to promise to support the Putsch against the government at gunpoint saying, "I have four shots in my pistol! Three for you, gentlemen. The last bullet for myself!" but allowed them to leave the meeting freely. Consequently they later changed their minds once free, even though Hitler had prepared his storm troopers to help in a wider Bavarian rebellion, but when the leaders threatened to call off the action, Hitler realised that he could not keep the storm troopers waiting any longer. Hitler still believed that his storm troopers would be assisted by the Bavarian army, planned a triumphal march into Munich on November 9th 1923 to seize power which later resulted in failure. Surprisingly, he had not arranged for the storm troopers to take control of the radio stations and the telegraph offices. This meant that the national government in Munich soon heard about Hitler's putsch and gave orders for it to be crushed. As his storm troopers marched into Munich the Bavarian army were ordered to attack Röhm and his troops and when Hitler, Ludendorff and Göring came to help Röhm with 3000 armed Nazis they found the road barricaded by Munich police at Odensplatz. From their refusal to stop the Munich police fired shots into the ground in front of the Nazis ... ... middle of paper ... ...s with different values made little difference, consequently people lost their savings and living standards fell often resulting in hunger. Hitler chose his Putsch at a time where Germany's economy was weak with hyperinflation and the popularity of the new Weimar Government was fragile and vulnerable. Even though his Putsch was a failure the consequences increased his support and popularity with the German people elevating his stature from a little known politician into a German hero. His imprisonment also allowed him to rethink his strategy to seize power and gave him the time to write his book 'Mein Kampf' which contained all his ideas for seizing power. In conclusion, Hitler's Putsch made him realise using politics could allow him to gain more and more power which changed him from an extremist to a politician.
Adolf Hitler came into power of Germany in 1934. Wanting power, land and revenge, Hitler gets troops ready to attack. Hitler was a troop in WWI for Germany. Once the Germans lost the war, Hitler took that personally, and wanted revenge. After coming into power with his army of Nazis, Hitler is quick to blame Jewish people for all the harsh debt and corruption in Germany. The Germans believe him, causing them to hate Jewish people. The holocaust happened throughout 1933-1945, it ended when Hitler killed himself.
Hitler and the Nazi Party's Total Control Over the Lives of German People from 1933-1945
1. Source A was written by Rudolf Diels, who was the head of the Prussian political police at the time of the fire. In his account of events, he explains that he caught Van Der Lubbe red handed, the suspect was alone and there was no evidence that he could see that involved other people, even other communists. He strongly disagreed with Goring and Hitler's theory that Van Der Lubbe was aided in some way, and that the whole affair was a communist plot to seize power. During the trial of Van Der Lubbe in 1933, he openly confessed to setting fire to the building, but denied that he had been helped. His statement in source B shows that he was adamant that he had worked alone. This would seem to prove Diels' theory, however, Van Der Lubbe could easily have been lying in order to protect the other arsonists, who would have probably been high ranking members of the communist party according to Goring's theory, and therefore much more valuable than a simple member, although extremely devoted, who was mentally unstable. If he was lying, he could also be covering the tracks of the Nazi party, who could have set it all up and, as they did, place the blame on the communists. All of this causes great confusion for anyone trying to uncover the truth. Rudolf Diels' account could be seen as reasonably reliable as he seems to have considered all the evidence and come to a thought out and unbiased opinion. Unfortunately, Van Der Lubbe is not a reliable source as he could be protecting any amount of people; there is also evidence that he was mentally unstable, and this means that his evidence is even more unreliable.
The Failure of the Munich Putsch The Munich-Putsch failed in 1932 for many reasons but all together poor planning was to blame because if the planning was perfect many of the things I would list wouldn't have happened. The MunichPutsch failed for these main reasons. Hitler and Ludendorff thought that it would be an easy task to take it over. Too many people knew about the attempt to take over the putsch.
The Holocaust, one of the worst events in human history. Due to one man's vision, genocide tore through Europe without a stop. The man was, Adolf Hitler, an Austrian born man who fought for the Germans during the First World War. After World War II Hitler joined the Nazi party. After years of dedication to the party he rose through the ranks and became the leader of the Nazi party. After advertising the party and expanding it Hitler became a politician, and decided to run for public office. He was voted as the new Prime Minister of Germany. He changed laws so if the Chancellor were to die the Prime Minister would become the new Chancellor. Once Hitler became Chancellor history would be forever changed by his actions.
In World War I he served in the Bavarian army, was gassed and wounded, and received the Iron Cross (first class) for bravery. The war had embittered him and he blamed Germany’s defeat on the Jews and the Marxists. He settled in Munich, joined with other nationalists in 1920, to form the Nazi party. In 1923, he tried to overthrow Bavaria’s Republican governmen...
At what is known as The Beer Hall Putsch a man by the name Kahr was giving a speech in front of some 3,000 supporters of the Bavarian government. Hitler shot his pistol in the middle of Kahr's speech and shouted, "The national revolution has begun."
German war under Hitler was so powerful at the beginning of World War II. Later, the Germany became weaker and weaker as they go through the battles. In 1943, at the battle of Stalingrad, the allied troops invade Berlin. He married Eva Braun on April 29, 1945 and wrote his final political testament. The next day (April 30, 1946) they killed themselves using poison tablets when they realize that they are no longer safer. Seven days after Hitler’s Death, Germany Surrendered.

The Night of Long Knives, one of most noteworthy events during Hitler’s rule, was a purge that occurred on the 30th June 1934. Hitler ordered the murders of conspicuous Conservative anti-Nazis such as Kurt Von Schleicher and Gustav Ritter von Kahr, Left wing Nazis such as Gregor Strasser and many members of the SA including its leader Ernst Rohm. It could be claimed that the murders were significant as they ended a possible takeover by the SA, deterred and intimidated Conservative critics while gaining their support, saw the rise of the SS, introduced terror and dictatorship into mainstream life and reassured the elites and the army.
Germany and everybody else was starting to become angry with Hitler. Hitler was well aware of this. Every where he turned a felt like somebody was out to get him. He decided on one thing and that was to kill himself. He had a group of friends surrounding him when he killed himself. The date was April 30, 1933. Only ten days after his 44 birthday. Ha, some belated birthday.
...nd British troops began to invade Germany. Hitler’s Wife took poison, killing her-self, Hitler took some poison but it didn’t work so he shot his self. The other leaders that helped Hitler also killed their self’s so they didn’t have to do the time in prison for what they did. The American troops and the other troops found the bodies of these leaders and burned them to make sure they were long gone. But it wasn’t in a few days that the news that Hitler was dead came out to the public.
Hitler exercises his power cautiously at first, but in 1923 he takes over a government meeting. Nazi storm troopers seize official buildings and Hitler is arrested on account of treason (Project GCSE sec. 2). Though Hitler spends the next ten years in prison, he and the Nazi party get incredible publicity (Project GCSE sec. 5).
The Night of the Long Knives was another key event that helped Hitler obtain power over Germany in the period 1933-1939. The Night of the Long Knives, which was also known as ‘Operation Hummingbird’, took place on 30 June-2 July 1934, it was a great purge by Hitler to eliminate anyone who he distrusted, anyone who was anti-Nazi and members of the SA. The SA leader, Ernst Rohm, former Chancellor of Germany Kurt von Schleicher and an important Nazi member Gregor Strasser were some of the people Hitler saw as a threat to his power. Hitler perceived Ernst Rohm as a threat to his power because of Rohm’s actions, such as his suggestion of merging the general army with the SA under his command. Hitler did not like this idea because the Army regarded
