The 1920’s were a bleak period for Germany due to the aftermath of World War 1 and the acceptance and enforcement of Article 231. The restrictions and economic crises were enough to lead Adolf Hitler to take a stand for Germany and its citizens and attempt to overthrow the Weimar Republic. Hitler led 2,000 German Nazi soldiers into Beer Hall to make his attempt. Though his attempt failed, Hitler started a movement that would change Germany forever. This lead to the creation of his work Mein Kampf, the Nazi Party, and Germany’s 3rd Reich.
On June 28th, 1941 the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, future heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip who killed this student changed the world.

This was HItler's stand against the Weimar Republic and the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty of Versailles was unjust to the German people, and they were already cheated out of war and Hitler was the only man to take action. (Beer Hall Putsch History.com) He was told the idea by Ludendorff to go march down Munich and take over, and that is exactly what Hitler did. Hitler led 3,000 German Nazis down Munich towards the War Ministry, only to be surrounded by police all over. Shots were fired, 16 Nazi’s were killed and many were arrested and fleeing. Luckily for Hitler he was not arrested at the Putsch, and he got away. He was later found at a family's house and arrested there. Although the Beer Hall Putsch was a fail, this changed Hitler and started his movement to success. (Rise of Hitler: Beer Hall …show more content…
(The Holocaust) Hitler thought out his plan and made a pact with Poland in 1934, to reduce the risk of being attacked until Germany had a stable, strong army. When he built up a strong enough army, he demolished poland in a few weeks. In 1935 while having a rally at Nuremberg, the Nazis announced some new laws about German Jew citizenship. These laws led to a few persecutions of Jews and some thrown in jail but the real Holocaust truly began on the night of Broken Glass. That was when Nazis went around burning Jews homes and shops, killing Jews, and arresting thousands. From there “ghettos” were soon to be born, and that would be the majority of the Jews homes for a long time. (The Holocaust) In 1939 Hitler and his army took control over the western half of Poland, forcing Poland Jews into the
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.
Poland was devastated when German forces invaded their country on September 1, 1939, marking the beginning of World War II. Still suffering from the turmoil of World War I, with Germany left in ruins, Hitler's government dreamt of an immense, new domain of "living space" in Eastern Europe; to acquire German dominance in Europe would call for war in the minds of German leaders (World War II in Europe). The Nazis believed the Germans were racially elite and found the Jews to be inferior to the German population. The Holocaust was the discrimination and the slaughter of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its associates (Introduction to the Holocaust). The Nazis instituted killing centers, also known as “extermination camps” or “death camps,” for being able to resourcefully take part in mass murder (Killing Centers: An Overview).
During this time Adolf Hitler, former military officer, attended "Beer Hall" meetings of the German Workers party that advocated a confused program of racism and social reform. Hitler quickly rose the ranks through his oratory skills. He appealed to the German population through their emotions. For instance, he spoke on inflation, the humiliation and growing despair among the population. In November 9th 1923, Adolf Hitler and his followers staged a "Beer Hall Putsch" in Munich and attempted to take over the government in Bavaria. Hitler was imprisoned for treason when the putsch failed and sentenced to serve 5 years. Realistically, he only spent less than a year, during which he wrote "Mein Kampf". Mein Kampf was Hitler 's autobiography that outlined his political ideology and future goals for Germany. In "Mein Kampf" Hitler expresses his hatred for the Jews, referring to them as "parasites", and most importantly emphasizes the idea of a dominant race, the "Aryan". Hitler believed that pure-blood Germans were superior to any other race. In the hopes of continuing his master plan, when Hitler was released from prison he expected Germany to be in turmoil, as he left
It all started when Hitler became the leader of Germany in 1933. He believed that the German people were of a “superior race” and that they should rule the world. Anyone else that was not German were considered to be an “inferior race.” This was all non-aryan people, including Africans, Slavic’s, and Jewish people (Background Information about World War II...). He took the rights from Jewish people and wanted to diminish them completely (World War 2: A Brief History). In 1938 Hitler ordered that Jews were removed from their homes and moved to the “Ghettos” where they had to live with way too many people and the conditions of living were horrendous. They didn't have enough food, and they didn't have any of the other necessities that they would normally have in their own home. (Background Information about World War II...). They sent the Jews to concentration camps where they were forced to work against their will and they were also sent to gas chambers where they were murdered (Background Information about World War II...). It is estimated that between fifty and seventy million people died during World War 2 and millions of them were Jews (W...
Of these two genocides, the Holocaust is more widely known. In the early 1930s, the German economy was in poor condition (“Background”). The Nazis tried and succeeded at portraying the Jews as terrible people to the public. After a persuasive campaign, Adolf Hitler was elected as chancellor of Germany on January 30th, 1933 and wasted little time in starting his evil mission (“History”). Soon after his election, he began taking a lot of the rights of the Jews away, including their citizenship (“History”). Hitler wanted a pure nation and he thought he could get that with having only the Aryan race in Germany (“Background”). The people of Germany, seeing their economic problems start to get better, ignored the discrimination and let the Nazis put their plan into action. Hitler had one goal and that was to kill every single Jew in Europe (Haugen and Musser). After capturing towns, cities, and countries, Hitler would take all the Jews and put them into concentration camps (Haugen and Musser). Some camps were designed purely to kill every single Jew that was sent there, while some were labor camps. (Haugen and Musser)
to reach he would have to do it legally, and so he decided to stand
First of all, the Holocaust started in 1933, when Hitler became the leader of Germany. Although Hitler was originally an Austrian, he was a German soldier during World War I. As an soldier, Hitler had been injured many times, and while he was in the hospital, Germany surrounded. He was unhappy about Germany's lost and he had ideas that he think will change Germany. He then tried to take over the government by man power, but failed and had been arrested to jail. While he was in jail, he wrote a book cal...
The party attempted to take control of the government by force. This failed as the Nazi’s did not enjoy widespread support at the time. The government was capable of controlling the armed forces and police. Hitler was imprisoned as a result of the Putsch (Uprising).
First came the persecution of the Jews. Jews have been persecuted for many centuries, but Hitler started a new era of persecution. It started with organized attacks against the Jews. People would throw stuff at them and yell nasty comments towards them. Soon their stores and business were boycotted by any Aryan. The Germans would stand outside the Jew stores to prevent people from coming in. Shortly after the persecution...
Hitler had vowed five years prior to the Putsch that he would not " rest nor sleep until the politicians who had signed the armistice had been hurled to the ground, until on the ruins of the pitiful Germany. of today has risen a Germany of power and greatness. This putsch was begun simply to avenge the armistice, to take over and change what he wanted to change and make them "the great nation" they were. On 8th November Hitler broke into a meeting in a large beer hall. which three leaders of the Bavarian government had.
Adolf Hitler came to power on February 28, 1933 (Rossel). He rose to power using inflammatory speeches and inspiring hope for the defeated Germans. He constructed a system to empower the German people and allow them to thrive in the period after the Great Depression (Noakes). Using keen acumen and decisive moves, he was able to turn Germany into a war machine bent on the creation of an Aryan utopian society, at the cost of all inferior races, especially the Jews ("The Period between 1933 and 1939"). At this time Germany was a defeated country. They had recently had numerous humiliating defeats in WWI, and the Germans no longer had the pride they once had celebrated (Laurita). Augmented by the fact that the Great Depression had ravaged the country and left many in a state of penury and impoverished, the Germans were desperate. As well, Germany was currently a country without any source of stability without a generally supported constitution. When Hitler promised a utopian society filled with hope and where the Germans would be exalted as the superior race, the Germans listened and obeyed his every word (Noakes). Hitler fed on the desperation and hopelessness of these German people to make a society driven by fear; this state of pity allowed Hitler to convince the Germans that he could provide a better future.
An austrian man by the name of Adolf Hitler who had served in the German Army during WWI, thought that Germans were better than others because of their DNA, and that all other races must be exterminated to create what he called a utopian society. After hearing of Germany's capitulation in WWI in a hospital recovering from a mustard gas attack, Adolf Hitler thought that he needed to gain control of the government to carry out his plans. In an attempt to overthrow to German government by force, Adolf was arrested. He was supposed to go to jail for five years; however, during his time in jail, he wrote a book called Mein Kampf, which means, My Struggles in english. The book was about Hitler's life, his ideas about cleaning up the bloodline, world domination/ utopian society, and how he was going to pull it off. He called it, "the Final Solution". Because of the money and popularity his book made, he got out of jail after a mere nine months. Once out of jail, he would be appointed to the position of chancelor by the president of Germany in 1933. From this position, he said that if the president died or resigned, he would become dictator. When the president died short after, he self-appointed himself to the position of dictator. Once he was dictator, he created the Neuremburg laws, which took away many of the Jew's rights. He also started calling the undesireables to death camps, which was the beginning of the Holocaust.
Hitler came to power in Germany in 1933, after World War 1 when tensions were high because the Treaty of Versailles blamed Germany for the destruction the war caused and they were faced with the payment for all the damages, which sent Germany into economic downfall. The Nazi party got a lot of electoral votes that year in the government, and started creating propaganda against the Jews; they blamed the Jews for the terrible things happening in Germany at the time. Some of the propaganda the Nazi party made were pictures of Jews pointing out what makes them Jewish and their distinctive traits, so you can spot them. These were on the front of newspapers printed everywhere in Germany. (An Introductory History of the Holocaust) They began to take away individual rights, and picked the Jews apart. They also put the Star of David on all Jews clothing, so they could easily be spotted in public.
In the year of 1933 Adolf Hitler seized the position of chancellor of Germany and this power that he received in January 30th is what shaped one of the most bloodlust dictatorships that this world has ever known. Hitler’s desire for power and victory made him one of the greatest leaders the world has ever seen but it also made him one of the most cruel and heartless people known to mankind. But how did he do this, how did he become one of the greatest and cruellest dictators? Throughout this essay we will explore the long, short and immediate causes for Hitler’s sudden success.
In 1920 Germany’s economy began to fail. After WWI, Germany was being blamed for everything that went wrong in the war. The Treaty of Versailles stated that Germany’s army was restricted to 100,000 men, they were to pay 132 billion in damages from the war, and they could have no air force. Germany was in a depression. Hitler became the hero; he promised the German people financial stability and his promise came true. Germany was finally out of their depression and working great, thanks to Adolf Hitler. Hitler was loved by many, he had saved Germany, and he was greatly admired by Germans nationwide. However, many events lead up to him becoming a villain, and basically ruining the world in the 1930’s.
