Adolf HItler was the leader of the Germany Nazi party and was one of the most notorious and powerful leaders in his day. He took part on economic woes, popular discontent and political infighting to take absolute power in Germany. Hitler adopted a version of the ancient symbol of the "Hakenkreuz", or hooked cross, as its emblem. Printed in a white circle on a red background, Hitler’s swastika would take on terrifying symbolic power in the years to come. Members of the the Nazi Party wore black uniforms and swore a personal oath of loyalty to Hitler. One of the major things Hitler was known for was his unappeal to the Jews. On "September 15, 1935", passage of the Nuremberg Laws deprived Jews of German citizenship, and barred them from
Fascism was around approximately forty years. From 1921-1943, Mussolini was the Fascist leader in Italy and Hitler was the Fascist leader in Germany. Many people thought Fascism could improve their countries because the leaders who stepped up to power, promised great improvements. They also convinced the citizens that they had nothing more to worry about. When Fascist leaders were brought to power, they promised the people their lives would be better and their country would be saved. Fascism was good for people who complied with the rules, but not for those who talked against their leaders. Fascism in the 1920’s lead Europe to support of the middle class and economic instability.
Hitler used many tactics to control German society during the Nazi era; his outlook on how women should act is embodied in the Speech to the National Socialist Women’s Association. The speech was given by Gertrud Scholtz-Klink, the organization’s leader, with the intent to convince women to take their place in Hitler’s Nazi movement. The emphasis on women’s natural roles in the home, as mothers and wives, and the discouragement of women’s right are manifested in the persuasive language of national identity and involvement. Hitler uses Scholtz-Klink to fight for the minds of German women in a speech that asks for feminist ideals to be cast aside all for the good of the country.
Hitler was at first imprisoned for trying to overthrow the government. While in jail, Hitler wrote a book called Mein Kampf, or My Struggle. This book appealed to many Germans, and helped Hitler rise to power. After being released from prison, Hitler discovered a group called the German Worker’s Party, or D.A.P. this group later became known as the Nazi party. “Hitler became chancellor of Germany on January 30, 1933”(Rosenberg 24). After Hitler became chancellor, the Nazis started winning seats in the German government and had 230 seats by 1932. The Nazis took over most of Germany and adopted the swastika as their symbol. The swastika was a symbol of good luck and success. Now it is always associated with the Nazi
World War 1 left Germany with a damaged economy, a leaderless country and people’s savings had dwindled. The central government was very weak and the people of Germany were desperate for some economic relief. The morale of Germany was low and the people needed something to be proud of. Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) seemed like an answer to their economic troubles and low morale. Hitler convinced the Germans that the jews had benefited from the war and were economically more successful than the starving Germans. He convinced them they were a master race and they had been betrayed by the Jews and the Communists. Hitler organized the military, he used propaganda, and he presented the Jews as the problem
Many people find Adolph Hitler as a cruel and wicked man after what he did during the World War II and the Holocaust. He lived an unfortunate life and brought misery to the innocent lives around him.

“When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile.” - Adolf Hitler. When I found this quote I was in awe, this inspirational quote coming from a man like him gave me a large smile, and some shock. The date when he said this quote is unknown, but I believe it was the late 1920’s, just before the making of the Third Reich. I think what he’s trying to say is when you’re in life’s worse situation always find a way to be happy, and always stay informal, no matter what has happened or that will come. Hitler does have bad reputation but his citizens adored him. JFK himself said “Adolf Hitler is one of the greatest men, the old trust him, the young idolized him. It is the worship of a national hero who
The Nazis flag became a symbol of evil. Hitler committed suicide before he could get in Justice. A lot of German Officials were convicted of war crimes.

He was also crazy because he did move to Germany when he was three, but also joined the army and was highly ranked in the German army and when they went to WWI, he remembered WWI as,”The greatest of all
In the book 1984, George Orwell describes a world similar to that of the Nazi Germany. An assortment of parallels can be drawn between the totalitarian governments of Adolf Hitler and Orwell’s fictional “Big Brother.” Complete power, propaganda, and dehumanization are three main topics related to both Orwell’s novel and Nazi Germany. Complete power is achieved by the dictatorship and totalitarianism. Brainwashing in both cases uses tactics of propaganda and invasion of privacy. Dehumanization is created by torture and death of the weak. This ties directly with George Orwell’s dystopian, or an imagined place in which everything is grim, society in 1984 because Big Brother aimed to achieve the complete power by brainwashing and dehumanizing his people.

As Hitler progressed in status and power, so did the discriminatory laws protecting his beloved Germans against the dangerous opposition. The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 separated the Germans and Jews, majorly affecting the citizens lives as this was the first legality put in place to control the Jews daily lives. Within the Nuremberg Laws, the Reich Citizenship law was created which legally differentiated the two races, as if it was a sign to prove that the Germans should know that they were superior to the Jews.

According to the Merriam- Webster dictionary, a genocide is the deliberately killing of people who belong to a particular racial, political, or cultural group. One of the most popular genocides that has taken place was the Holocaust, which took place during 1933 to 1945 (Roth) as well as World War II. The holocaust was a genocide that took place where the Nazi’s took part in moving Jews to ghettos and later to concentration camps only to brutally, kill and abuse them.

For instance, Hitler emphasized amongst the population, a clear divide between those who were Volksgenossen (pure German blood) and Gemeinshcaftsfremade (outsiders) (Adolf Hitler: Man and Monster). Visible distinctions were forced to be worn by the latter group such as the Star of David on those who were Jewish (Adolf Hitler: Man and Monster). The divide amongst the population was created mainly due to antisemitism which was extremely prevalent throughout the time. For example, Jewish people were blamed for Germany’s loss in WWI and in return, their businesses were boycotted, those who were lawyers got disbarred from practicing and their German citizenship was revoked (Adolf Hitler: Man and Monster). Additionally, police
