When the Nazi Party first began its rise in Germany, there were many supporters who believed that Hitler’s intentions for the country were both smart and moral.

The Nazis were an extreme right wing political party which was at first active from 1920 but came to a height in power in 1933, many speculate that the Nazis were able to rise to power so easily was because of the ineffectiveness of their opposition.
