Hitler’s assumption of power on the 30th of January 1933 was seemingly due to the mass popularity of the Nazi party. However it was far off achieving the 50% majority it needed to put Hitler automatically in power. As well as popularity, backstairs intrigue and the short-sightedness of those in power enabled Hitler to become Chancellor. The weaknesses of Germany’s political leadership were fundamental to Hitler’s success. In some senses the popularity of the party only provided an opening, available for exploitation.

In high school, he was a very poor student and angered his father. As a child, he always become clashed with his father. His father hoped that he would study to become a government servant but he wanted to become an artist.

In addition, this got him arrested which gave him the chance to inform the German people about his nationalism over the course of his twenty-four day long court trial. Second of all, Hitler was found guilty of treason and sentenced to five years in prison. When he was in prison Hitler wrote a book called Mein Kampf, about his struggles in prison, he was released just nine months later. On Hitler’s rise to take over Germany, fortunately for him, the Great Depression happened. The Great Depression really affected millions of people, due to the fact that Germany was built out of foreign capital, they really relied on loans that came mostly from the United States of America. Unfortunately for the German people, when the crash happened the United States could no longer support Germany. This resulted in a lot of German workers being laid off. Hitler

Hitler went to prison in April for marching into Munich Central Square with 3000+ other Nazis. In prison, Hitler wrote Mein Kampf or My Struggle (Hook). His book was about his race and his beliefs, how the Jews and gays and mentally challenged etc. were “un-pure.” He was sentenced to 5 years but was only in Prison only 13 months. When he was released, Nazi support slumped dramatically. Hitler was banned from public speaking until he vowed his allegiance to the government.

While in prison, Hitler wrote a memoir in which he predicted a European war which would exterminate the Jewish race in Germany. Hitler was obsessed with the idea of superiority of the "Pure" German race, that he called "Aryan". In the 10 years he was released from prison, Hitler took advantage of rivals and their weaknesses to enhance his party's status obscurity to power.

From the time Hitler and the Nazi’s took control of Germany in 1933 until the collapse of the Third Reich in 1945, the aim of the regime under the calculating guidance of Hitler himself sought no less than global conquest. This ambitious objective can be further dissected into short term and long term goals that provide insight into Hitler’s character, thoughts and actions.

Another key element for Hitler’s gain of excessive power was the Great Depression. “Due to America 's large trade industries, the depression quickly spread all over the world. This put Germany into a dire state as unemployment rocketed” (The Truth About Hitler’s Rise To Power, n.d). With the rise of unemployment Hitler was able to gain more votes through promising more employment opportunities for Germany. “The depression was important as Hitler could prey on these people, and these people came, not in thousands, but millions” (The Truth About Hitler’s Rise To Power, n.d). The depression was key element in Hitler’s rise to power.

He wrote a memoir called “Mein Kampf” aka “My Struggle” in which he predicted the decimation of the Jewish race in Germany. The roots of the genocide is still unclear. Hitler was obsessed with the idea of the superiority of the “pure” German race which was called “Aryan” and with the need for “Lebensraum” or living space. After being released from prison, Hitler destroyed all of his opponents and took advantage of the weakness of his rivals. The number of seats Nazis controlled rose from 12 in 1928 to 230 in 1932. On January 20, 1933 he was elected as Chancellor of Germany. Hitler then became the Supreme Ruler of Germany after President Paul van Hindenburg’s death in 1934. The undoing of the Treaty of Versailles began when Hitler came to power. He also restored Germany’s power in the world.

Hitler only carried out 9 months of his five year sentence. While serving his time, he wrote his

In the following investigation, the following question will be addressed: In what ways did economic and political issues in Germany between 1922 and 1932 contribute to Hitler's rise to power?
