Whether this impact is considered good or not, it does not matter. Hitler’s influence on the world, although not a good one, is unquestionable. Many leaders have had inspirations of ruling the world, but few of those leaders have had the strength or power to even attempt world domination. But Hitler was one of those few,

Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin….. These three names have a vast impact on the idea of dictatorship. These men established dictatorship and guided this type of rule throughout most of their lives.

It takes a person with a lot of courage and grit to become a dictator. These three proletariats possessed that exact
Hitler: Old Ideas, New Meanings The second World War was a consequence of one man and his idealistic dream. Adolf Hitler strove to further the "Aryan" race at the expense of other people and cultures. However, for such an idealistic man, Hitler was fairly unoriginal. He borrowed the swastika, the main symbol used in the war to indicate Nazi rule, from ancient civilizations. Hitler also borrowed mythology from other cultures to promote his ideas. The swastika was far from being Hitler's own
Hitler Took Advantage of People's Low Self Esteem After World War I Germany fell to an all time low, economically and politically. The German people were unemployed, the government was broke and there was a feeling of helplessness all around.

TODAY it seems to me providential that Fate should have chosen Braunau on the Inn as my birthplace. For this little town lies on the boundary between two German states which we of the younger generation at least have made it our life work to reunite by every means at our disposal. German-Austria must return to the great German mother country, and not because of any economic considerations. No, and again no: even if such a union were unimportant from an economic point of view; yes, even if it were
distracted with the effort to keep their families fed. They came to manhood in a country which seemed to have no use for them. Even compulsory military training was no more and there was nothing to take its place" (Perry et. al 358). Hitler, being the sleazy opportunist that he was, capitalized on this state of affairs. In ways that were not politically correct, he was able to influence this segment of the population and hold them in allegiance to his agenda. "Hitler made each insignificant, poverty

targeted towards women, “Save the German Family” created by Felix Albrecht in late 1931, assisted Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party’s rise to power during this time of despair. The poster translated in english as, “Women! Millions of men without work. Millions of children without a future. Save the German Family. Vote Adolf Hitler!”. The words, as well as the image of the poster, evoked the emotion of what German families were going through at the time. Hitler and the Nazi party used this kind of propaganda
innocent Jews were killed by Adolf Hitler. It was not an avoidable situation, and definitely couldn’t have been prevented even if a series of actions occurred. Hitler has been planning this genocide more than a decade before he became Chancellor. After WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles was created, it made Germany desperate to fix their Country. Lastly, Hitler was an amazing manipulator, and even convinced Hindenburg, the chancellor at his time in office. Hitler was very cynical when making plans
