Adolf Hitler: The Rise Of The Weimar Republic

To start, Adolf Hitler had an interesting childhood. First off, Hitler started out with a pretty normal life. He was born on April 20, 1889, in Brauau, Austria. He had a sister named Paula, a half- brother named Alois, and a half-sister named Angela. Hitler was smart. He received good marks in elementary school, but was a poor student in high school.(Online, Adolf Hitler 10). Lastly, Hitler had a harsh, ill-tempered father. Hitler’s low marks in high school angered his father. His father wanted Hitler to have a career as a civil servant, but Hitler wanted to be an artist. (Online, Adolf Hitler 11). As Hitler grew up, he started to have different views on others.

Hitler was especially noted when he earned the First Class Iron Cross, the highest military honor a German

Adolf Hitler was born 1908 in Austria to his mother, Klara ,and his drunk of a father, Alois(Schlesinger 7). He deeply loved his mother and worshiped his father. Though it may be thought otherwise, Hitler had a fairly ordinary childhood in Austria. His life as a young man showed no evidence of what he would grow up to be, but that doesn't mean he didn't have Demons. His father was a tyrant. He ruled his family with force and aggression, and regularly beat Adolf. He would often whip the family dog till it wet the floor. Alois Hitler died when Adolf was fourteen. With his father no longer there to enforce good grades, he started to study less and fail more. When he turned sixteen, he gave up completely, and dropped out.

Many wonder what the notorious Adolf Hitler must have endured that led him the become such an evil, careless person. He is infamously known as the main perpetrator of the Holocaust in which roughly ten million people died. Although his exact reasoning for intolerance is, and always will

In 1933, Germany had begun to fall under the power of a deceptive leader with strong intentions whose popularity and support almost aided him to achieve his goal of world domination. As this man orchestrated his way through his sovereignty, he managed to catch the eye of nearly every German

Kohut through 1939 Living in Germany during the Weimar Republic and then having to deal with the uprising of power of Hitler, was an experience that changed many lives of everyday German citizens. Thomas Kohut’s book, A German Generation, analyzes a group of interviewees that grew up and lived during this time period. After World War I, Germany was in a state of heartbreak, but for many of the children going through the war, they recall it as, “not as a time of anxiety and hardship but as an idyllic period in their lives” (Kohut 39). However, the Weimar Republic was certainly a time of disorder and chaos for Germany. The older groups recall memories they have of the defeat they faced and the revolution in Germany as, “vivid and

Is it a coincidence that Hitler and the Nazis increased their popularity, while the Weimar Republic decreased their spot in Germany’s government? The only reason the Nazi Party increased their popularity was because the Weimar Republic made Germany become distressed and also the Young Plan of 1928 contributing to the Nazis gaining 18% in the 1930 Reichstag elections. Therefore, Germany began panicking which led Hitler to gain power, Germany created the Weimar Constitution to drive Germany out of this economic downfall, and the League of Nations created the Treaty of Versailles to force Germany to harsh terms and which ultimately led Hitler and the Nazi Party to take control of the German government.

Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany turned Germany’s gloomy future into a bright one. Before Hitler claimed power over Germany, the country that was struggling during the Weimar Republic (1919 – 1933) with problems such as the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty forced Germany to hand over reparations for the events of World War 1. Conditions would only get worse for Germany during the Weimar Republic’s control of Germany. In 1923 Germany could no longer afford to pay back the reparations for the treaty, meaning that the country dug deeper into debt. Germany now relied on money from overseas, especially the United States. In 1929 the Wall Street Stock Market crashed, beginning the Great Depression.

The Third Reich rose from the ashes of the Weimar Republic, which was a parliamentary democracy established after the fall of the Kaiser at the end of World War 1. In an article published by the United States Holocaust museum the end of the Republic is result of the rise of the Nazis. The Weimar Republic fell thanks to a string of events that resulted in Adolf Hitler’s establishment as Fuhrer. The beginning of the end for the Republic was upon the appointment of Adolf Hitler as chancellor on January 30, 1933. After a mysterious fire burned down the Reichstag, Germany’s Parliament building, on February 28, 1933, a state of emergency was declared allowing Hitler to establish a policy of ‘coordination,’ requiring the alignment of the German culture,

Germany could not stand the Treaty of Versailles and demanded change immediately if it were to save its society. They needed one man to take action and turn this situation around. This man was known as Adolf Hitler and his actions during WWII came to be known as some of

Between 1930 and 1933, Germany had been suffering bad conditions after being forced to sign the Treaty of Versailles. The Great Depression had also lead Germany further into economic despair and the weakness of the Weimar Republic allowed Hitler and the Nazi party to take control of Germany. Before the Nazi party came into power, Germany was ruled by the Weimar Republic, a democracy led by President Hindenburg. Under this rule, Germans had a lot more freedom and rights in their life. In 1923, after World War I, France had forced Germany to sign the Treaty of Versailles, which stated that they must pay back reparations, give land and take the blame. From a speech by Sir Geddes in 1918 said, “Germany is going to pay….The Germans should hand over

Hitler was an amazing and very unusual speaker and had the ability to convince people that he could bring them out of their extreme unhappiness and pain. The 1920s was a period serious money problems for Germany and they believed anyone who could be that convincing. The German people were confused by the World War I as they could never imagine Germany losing. They badly searched for and tried to get answers for the defeat and Adolf Hitler convinced them that he had the answers. Three methods that helped Hitler rise to power was World War 1, his unforgettable speeches, and his actions as chancellor.

First off I am going to talk about Hitler’s service in world war one. While Hitler served in world war one he had some of the best luck nearly every attack he was involved in Hitler would always somehow escape. In one of his first engagements 2500 of the 3000 men in Hitler’s unit where either killed or missing and somehow Hitler managed to escape with no scratches.
