Adolf Hitler and his actions are the cause of World War II. “Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who don't want to fight in this world of eternal struggle they don't deserve to live, ” by Adolf Hitler. This is an important quote since Hitler believed in the power of war. His parents died when he was young, so he went into the army very young and fought in World War I.
Adolf Hitler used the power as Hindenburg's chancellor to help him rise to power .Before Hindenburg’s death they made a law saying the office of president will share his power with people in the chancellor. “Hitler became head of state as well as head of government and was formally named leader and chancellor”.This was because the president would need

Hitler made the “Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service” it was the first law to exclude Jews from state service. “The Anti-Semitic laws were issued throughout all levels of government, making good on the Nazis’ pledge to persecute Jews if the party came to power”. The law also limited the amount of Jewish kids in a school and limited Jews working in medical professions. People were also called Jews if they had grandparents that were Jewish.
In 1938 the Nazis banned Jews from almost everywhere.The Nazis persecuted the Jews by banning them from public places and making them lose jobs. “The Nazis continued to segregate Jews from German society, banning them from public schools,universities, theaters, sports events, and “Aryan” zones”. Then Jews had to have a J stamped on their passports. The Nazis also destroyed Jewish places and killed close to 100 Jews.
In conclusion, Hitler caused WW II because of his actions. He abused his power as a leader to take control of the military and persecute the Jews. His military power helped spread out his empire and rule. As a result, the Holocaust involved all of the land conquered by the Nazi’s. It unfortunately killed a lot of Jews and other
It can be argued wether the second World War was Hitler`s war. It is one of the most arguable Arguments in Modern History. As Hitler did state that he wanted world domination it should actually be very clear that it was his war. On the other hand though he got a lot of help by the failure of appeasement and the Treaty of Versailles. They encouraged that his ideas were the solution to the current situation and made more people support him. The fact that these were just catalysing his ideas. Hitler couldn`t of planned these though as it was very sudden. Another reason could be that it was Germany`s fault rather then Hitlers`s and that they only took advantage of him. That their short-term reaction and aggression triggered the War. In general though it was him that broke out the war as he disrespected the appeasement and invaded Poland. This was the
Hitler had shown unwillingness to tolerate the Jews and once he was appointed Chancellor, he started to take elimination measures like deportation, forced emigration, and isolation to enforce his belief. He took advantage of Germany’s weakness in World War One, then used it as an opportunity to blame the Jews for Germany’s defeat. Hitler’s political party was the largest political party in Germany thus allowing them to draw very large crowds to gatherings. He had very good oratory speeches with hand gestures that easily manipulated people to adhere to his views. Hitler constantly targeted the Jews because he knew people believed in these speeches. People in Germany were already anti-semitic but Hitler made it worse by constantly consuming them in his speeches. From the way he spoke about the Jews, we could clearly see the possibility of genocide. Hitler wanted Germany to be free of any humans that anyone other than his ideal master race so he personally selected bodyguards to be part of a group called the SS. Hitler was responsible for ordering the SS to carry out the extermination of anyone who did not fit this ideal. The SS handled oppositions using force and as a result of which people were forced to give into the idea of violence. Sometimes people purposely went along with this Holocaust ideal due to the fear of getting killed. These terrors allowed the holocaust occur
World War II was a devastating war where millions of soldiers and civilians died. Adolf Hitler played a huge part in World War II and was one of the major reasons the war happened. Hitler started to take over countries like Austria with little or no resistance. When he later tried to invade Poland, Britain declared war. Even though there was very little fighting at the time Britain declared war. Hitler’s ideas and goals for Germany were what initially caused World War II and later led to the holocaust. His need for more space for Germany led him to start taking over countries and initially started the war with Britain and he wanted a superior Aryan race which is the reason for the Holocaust. Hitler stated the three reasons for starting this war in his Journal Mein Kampf. His goals were to get rid of the Treaty of Versailles, make a Greater Germany, and he wanted more living space for his people.
The Nazis came into power on the 30th of January, 1933. By that year Hitler had total control over the country. Hitler possessed a dominant presence and was able to get people to listen to him, he was very persuasive in making the Germans believe that the Jews were the problem of Germany. He vowed to use his skill in public speaking and his position in authority and gain political power the right way. Nazi leader Adolf Hitler believed that Jews were an inferior race, alien threat to German racial purity. Anti- Semites such like Hitler believed that the reason for their country’s loss in 1918 were the Jews. Many Jews were killed during the Holocaust, the Nazis tried to keep this operation a secret but was made virtually impossible due to the amount of
After a short time, Hitler put restrictions on the Jews so they could feel like even less of a human. "After May 1940 the good times were few and far between: first there was the war, then the capitulation and then the arrival of the Germans, which is when the trouble started for the Jews. Our freedom was severely restricted by a series of anti-Jewish decrees: Jews were required to wear a yellow star; Jews were required to turn in their bicycles; Jews were forbidden to use trams; Jews were forbidden to ride in cars, even their own; Jews were required to do their shopping between 3.00 and 5.00 p.m.; Jews were required to frequent only Jewish-owned barbershops and beauty salons; Jews were forbidden to be out on the streets between 8.00 p.m. and 6.00 a.m.; Jews were forbidden to go to theatres, cinemas or any other forms of entertainment; Jews were forbidden to use swimming pools, tennis
Due to Germany taking back the colonies lost after World War I and forming an alliance with Austria, Germany’s actions against the Treaty of Versailles contributed to the cause of World War II. After Germany got slapped with a $33 Billion dollar war reparation bill and Kaiser Wilhelm was removed from power, Germany was a mess, which allowed the rise of Hitler. Hitler, being a former Iron Cross winning
To begin, there were many political laws implemented against Jews. Secondly, Following all of the political laws implemented against the Jews, there were also many social laws that the Jews faced. Lastly, the Nazis separated the Jews from the rest of society by creating ghettos. The discrimination created much segregation in Germany. Propaganda brainwashed citizens into believing that Jews were the reason for all of their issues, which is obviously the reason the plan was so successful. Overall, there were many laws that influenced early discrimination of Jews in
World War II officially began in Poland, 1939, after a Nazi invasion. It is known to be the most destructive war in history, with an overall amount of about 60 million deaths. Adolf Hitler, German dictator, played an extremely big role in this war, causing battlegrounds world-wide and opening the nuclear age. He changed the way most people think about the countries that were involved in this war, and made a huge impact on our lives today. Adolf Hitler was significant to WWII because he officially started the war and the Holocaust (A and networks Digital ).
After his release, Adolph Hitler put his treacherous plans into action. He began working inside the German government and his power within the system increased rapidly. Yet Hitler was always hungery for more. With support, the crazed man changed the law so that when the chancellor died, all the power of the country was to be given to him. As a result, one would not be surprised to learn that Germany's chancellor died soon after this law was created, leaving the power of Germany within the dirty hands of Adolph Hitler.
Many dispute over the causes of World War II(WWII). Whether the causes were the same from World War I(WWI), or if there were new causes entirely is not known for sure, but evidence exists to support either premise. The nationalism, imperialism, militarism and alliances that caused WWI are the most likely to have caused WWII, because most were not resolved in the Treaty of Versailles which ended WWI. These causes remained constant throughout the interwar years with the motivation of Hitler, who gave the people a group to blame them on. Prior to the Second World War, the Treaty of Versailles ended WWI and immediate fighting, but did not address some underlying causes of the war, enabling the problems to fester, which aided Hitler in perusing
The anti Jewish sentiment was already strong in many parts of Germany and whilst anti-Semitism might not have been in the forefront of everyone’s mind, it was already a conscious part of everyday life. And in early 1935, a second wave of anti-Jewish agitation followed, once again , following pressure from within the lower party activists within the SA and Hitler Youth. This renewed violence, whilst sanctioned by Hitler, once again proved relatively unpopular amongst the German people and Hitler recognised the need to draw this damaging campaign to a swift conclusion. But at the same time, Hitler did not wish to lose face with his party activists, which led to the Nuremberg Laws of September 1935.
‘From the first day that he "seized power," January 30, 1933, Hitler knew that only sudden death awaited him if he failed to restore pride and empire to post-Versailles Germany.’[1] The Second World War was the deadliest battle in History. Figures estimate that over 59 million people were killed during its conflict. German leadership was under Adolf Hitler, a ruthless dictator who was the chancellor of Germany during the majority of the conflict. It is debatable that Hitler was solely responsible for the events in which lead to and occurred during the Second World War. Hitler was responsible to a large degree, however cannot be accountable for every aspect in which the
In 1933 a horrible dictator started his rise to power in Germany, and would eventually be the main cause of World War II. There were many causes of World War II, but Adolf Hitler was the main cause over all. The war lasted six long drawn out years. World War II started on September 1, 1933 and ended on May 8, 1945 with Germany’s defeat. Adolf Hitler played a key role in World War II because he started the war, his anger stemmed from his early life, he rose to power with his plans ready, and made many decisions throughout the war, but in the end his plans failed.
Through the Treaty of Versailles, the Great Depression of 1929, and political appointment by incompetent yet manipulative government officials, Adolf Hitler was able to silently rise to power in Germany, consequently causing the Second World War.
After Hitler comes into power, the laws of Jewish persecution become more often, stricter, and more deadly. The next law that passed was that of the Nuremberg Laws these laws stated that none of the Jews in Germany were allowed to marry Aryans or fly the German flag (The Holocaust Background info center). 1935 ended with another law against the Jews being passed, as did the start of 1936.
