The Wall Street Crash in America was an economic crisis affecting most developed nations in the early and mid 1930s. It was set off by a stock market crash in New York City in 1929 which then spread beyond the United States and by the end of 1932 America was in the lowest point of the greatest economic depression in their history. The number of unemployed people reached up to 13 million. The Wall Street Crash in 1929 affected Germany because they relied on America for a lot of their production and exports, but mostly relied on American loans. During the Wall Street Crash Germany owed a lot of money to other countries after World War 1 so the depression made it even worse. The Great Depression helped Hitler because Germans were poor and tired after the war due to Germany having to pay $8,867,390,400 and the Wall Street Crash that left millions of Germans homeless and unemployed. Hitler told the Germans that he would save them and get them out the Great Depression if they follow and supported him, he made an army of supporters and made them feel like they had power Germans believed Hitler and Hitler then became leader or dictator. Germans were desperate and Hitler told them that he would make everything better and showed order, as a result they followed him and practically gave him the power. Other political parties were weak because they could not agree on a solution to tackle the economic problem, even though they had more supporters than the Nazis. At the July 1932 elections the Nazis won more votes than any other political party. Hitler and his Nazi party promised simple solutions and came across as united and strong. Hitler blames all of Germany’s problems on the Weimar republic, the Treaty of Versailles, and he also used the Jews and other people to blame (Great
The Great Depression was among the most important factors in creating the climate that allowed for Hitler’s rise to power, and his eventual beginning of World War II. The Great Depression, in addition to losing World War I, created a German populace that was humiliated. This allowed Hitler, with his soaring nationalist rhetoric, to take win a large share of the electorate in the early 1930’s. This is because Hitler appealed to their humiliation and promised to restore Germany to his past glory. Thus, the Great Depression was absolutely essential in making Germany into an aggressor. However, it was unimpacted by the Treaty of Versailles. In fact, the Great Depression originated in the United States, which did not even sign the Treaty of Versailles. It may not be clear why the Great Depression, which began in and most impacted the United States, caused Germany, and not more negat...

The German economy was especially vulnerable since It was built out of foreign capital, mostly loans from America and was dependent on foreign trade.
