Without going into a detailed history timeline, condoning Hitler, and trying to remain apolitical, I submit that the path of nihilism, ethnocentrism, and hatred was one that took years and was reinforced by several accomplishments on military, political, and legal fronts. Hitler came into power in the 1933 and by 1934 had complete control - unrestrained by constitutional controls. Hitler did not have the majority vote for his sweeping changes referendum in 1934, but by 1938, he accomplished several key military objectives that were very popular and gained the confidence of the German people. It is estimated that by 1938 90% of the German people supported the Führer. His propaganda and accomplishments such as overthrowing the Treaty of Versailles, expansion of the Reich to incorporate ethnic Germans in Austria, raising production and the national economy, politically uniting Germany, and rearming it militarily were resonating with the German people. My point is that the lead up to the ensuing atrocities was paved with skillful leadership and control tactics. …show more content…
When we visit, I am always astonished by his recounting of how Germany was then. Hitler’s Weltanschauung (worldview) was public, but during his early speeches he never mentioned the racial and imperialist conquest he would take Germany and the world on. (Readers Digest version) by the time the population realized what was going on – those who opposed him and the Reich were forced into silence – or die. Issues like the “Church Struggle” were deflected away from Hitler and onto his subordinates – this enabled him to separate himself and focus on his achievements, thus reinforcing his
What can become the most powerful thing if manipulated and brainwashed at a young age? Well Hitler knew the answer and knew the importance of them for his 1,000 year plan. The youth was a significant part of Hitler's reign, as once the kids have been brainwashed by all the propaganda, they will follow and obey all of his commands without hesitation.
Hitler’s rise to power before World War II was due to his anger at Germany’s defeat in World War I and the punishment Germany received from Britain and France. He also directed his anger at Jews and communists he believed contributed to that defeat. He blamed them for the loss of World War I, which he thought was a Jewish conspiracy (Jews in Nazi Germany pg. 1). He also believed that the Treaty of Versailles was a Jewish conspiracy designed to take down the country of Germany (Jews in Nazi Germany pg. 1) as well as the hyperinflation of 1923, which he believed to be an international conspiracy by the Jewish people (Jews in Nazi Germany pg. 2). On January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany (The History Place: Holocaust Timeline pg. 1). This was the rise to power that he needed to carry out his campaign of evil against the Jewish people. After his rise to power, Hitler branded the Jews as
Adolf Hitler was born in Austria-Hungary on April 20, 1889, to mother, Klara Hitler, and father, Alois Hitler; a German by blood.
On 30 January 1933, the German president, Paul von Hindenburg, selected Adolf Hitler to be the head of the government. This was very unexpected. Hitler was the leader of an extreme right-wing political party, the National Socialist German Workers (Nazi) Party. Hitler sought to expand Germany with new territories and boundaries. Hitler also focused on rebuilding Germany’s military strength. In many speeches Hitler made, he spoke often about the value of “racial purity” and the dominance of the Aryan master race. The Nazi’s spread their racist beliefs in schools through textbooks, radios, new...
Adolf Hitler, an Austrian born German politician, a once decorated World War I veteran, the leader of Nazi Germany, the man responsible for the holocaust and millions of deaths, is without a doubt the most hated man of the 20th Century and arguably throughout the entire history of the human race. Adolf Hitler did many things throughout his lifetime that have affected the outcome of the world today, such as what he did to the Jewish people or how he attempted and almost succeeded in conquering the world. Most people know the main things that Hitler did because of how much they affected the world, but not as many people understand exactly how it was that this man rose to power in the first place. Adolf Hitler rose to power very quickly because

Heinrich Himmler was the cruelest men and was one of the reasons over six million Jewish people lost their lives during the holocaust. Heinrich Himmler was the person that came up with the “final solution”. The final solution was code word for killing all of the Jewish people in Europe. Heinrich Himmler being the second most powerful man in Germany, just being under Hitler himself, he was able to be in charge of the cruel SS branch of the Nazi party. His responsibility was to keep the Nazi empire safe and to ensure that the Final Solution was being put to use. (ushmm1)

During the Holocaust, around six million Jews were murdered due to Hitler’s plan to rid Germany of “heterogeneous people” in Germany, as stated in the novel, Life and Death in the Third Reich by Peter Fritzsche. Shortly following a period of suffering, Hitler began leading Germany in 1930 to start the period of his rule, the Third Reich. Over time, his power and support from the country increased until he had full control over his people. Starting from saying “Heil Hitler!” the people of the German empire were cleverly forced into following Hitler through terror and threat. He had a group of leaders, the SS, who were Nazis that willingly took any task given, including the mass murder of millions of Jews due to his belief that they were enemies to Germany. German citizens were talked into participating or believing in the most extreme of things, like violent pogroms, deportations, attacks, and executions. Through the novel’s perspicacity of the Third Reich, readers can see how Hitler’s reign was a controversial time period summed up by courage, extremity, and most important of all, loyalty.
There was a man who killed millions of people, he was so powerful he destroyed a nation. He could kill and do whatever he wanted. This man's name was Adolf Hitler.
The Hitler’s political views is National Socialism. It is a political system that advocated totalitarianism control over all aspects of the state. In addition, the party was nationalistic and strongly against internationalism and assimilation of any foreign cultures. Hitler spoke out on his views against the Jews and managed to convince others that there is no space for foreigners in Germany. He also emphasized that Germany could not could not accept others, and if they do so, their identity will be compromised, and not be considered “real Germans” (1923).
In the beginning of 1938 for the second time in four years Germany took over Austria with some violence and joined Austria to the Nazis. On March 12th Hitler started puting German troops into Austria. Austria then was a federal state of Germany. Then the Allied powers won world war 2 and re created Austria from Nazi Germany and what happened to Germany. Schuschnigg was then free from prison when Austria was freed from the Nazi.
Today I will talk about Adolf Hitler that had a different life than the other people while he grows up in his childhood, teenage, adult years, world war 2 and why he decided to end his life.
Young Adolf Hitler at age 18 with all his inheritance in hand left his sick mother in Austria to apply to Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. After taking the entry example he was struck with grief as he was rejected. He went back to confront the leaders and was told he has no respect for the human form and they were not interested in having a high school dropout attend there fine academy. Heart broken and drained he headed back home only to stay with his dying mother, making the situation a lot worst. The doctor prescribed her Iodoform that actually quicken her death. That doctor happen to be jewish. After his mother's death he moved back to Vienna, homeless and alone on a park bench.
Hitler was very clever in getting the German people on his side, and he mainly did this by using lots and lots of propaganda. He used the germans as scapegoats, and blamed them for the economical crisis that Germany was in, but just this alone wouldn’t have worked. He needed something to back him up, to prove him right, and for that he used made up films, newspaper articles, any form of media he could get his hands on. Nearly everyone in Germany was on Hitler’s side, when Herschel Grynszpan shot and killed Ernst Von Rath. This provided everyone with the proof they desperately needed to decide that Jews were bad, and thus the first major act of persecution and isolation happened (Kristallnacht). Propaganda combined with the little help they were given was what got people on their side and kept them on their
