Nazism and the rise of Hitler the Second
World War
1941 2:45 had two armies fighting they
were the allies comprising Britain and
France and the axis comprising Germany
Italy and Japan the Allies were later
joined by USA and Russia but the name
that featured in history the most was
that of Hitler and the atrocities that
his army committed against the Jews
after the war the victors set up a trial
the Nuremberg Tribunal set up after the
war tried criminals for genocide let us
now see how Nazis and grew in the first
place not system had its rise due to the
treatment the Germany had caught at the
hand of the Allies during the first
world war 1914 to 1918 the supporters of
Hitler were called Nazis not ism was the
system a structure of ideas about the
world and politics Germany was a
powerful Empire at that time and had
been humiliated at the hands of the
Allies by the Treaty of Versailles the
defeat led to the ruler abdicating his
throne and a parliamentary form of
government coming into existence this
was not well received by the Germans who
was seething under the unfair terms that
the Allies had inflicted upon them the
Allies blamed the Germans for the war
and took away six billion pounds as
compensation and also the resource-rich
Rhineland territory this resulted in
aggressive war propaganda and National
Honor came to be recognized popular
support for conservative dictatorships
also came into existence with the birth
of the Weimar Republic which coincided
with the time of the Russian Revolution
the clamor for the same kind of
governments started gaining ground
economic crises and soaring inflation
also compounded their problems
finally USA bailed them out of the
situation
the problem was further aggravated by
the Great Depression in the 1930s during
this time unemployment rose to
unprecedented levels resulting in many
antisocial activities the middle class
feared the growth of proletarian ISM it
was only the organized workers who
managed to hold their own in this crisis
politically to the Republic was fragile
the system of proportional
representation did not allow any party
to obtain a majority so coalition was
the only possibility this kind of rule
gave the powers to the President to
impose emergency disband civil rights
and rule by decree there were too many
cabinets and none offered solutions to
people's problems and as a result they
lost confidence in the democratic system
now the time was ripe for Hitler to rise
to power the First World War horrified
him and he was furious that Germany was
defeated he joined an organization
called the German Workers Party and
later took it over and named it National
Socialist German Workers Party it soon
came to be known as the Nazi Party in
1923 he decided to take control of
Bavaria and walk to Berlin and take its
reins as well he failed and was
imprisoned but later released initially
his body had no impact but it was during
the Great Depression that he gained
support and momentum to move ahead and
by 1932 his was the largest party in
Germany being a gifted orator he
promised to restore the glory of Germany
that had been lost in the First World
War
Hitler had a new style of politics he
organised mass rallies and public
meetings who demonstrate his power over
the people and to give them the sense of
unity the swastika and a ritualized
applause after speeches marked the
beginning of Hitler's rise as a savior
of the German people does rose Nazism
and Hitler
