was able to accomplish this far. Once more, life thought the World it was not necessary to come from a pedestal to obtain an impressive charge in the government. When Hitler failed during the Munich Putsch, he realize his lack of support from the people and radicalism were leading him no where. He learned his lesson and decided to give it another chance, but now more cautiously. He wanted to become chancellor by usurping democracy in order to obtain his goal. He began to promise people what they wanted to hear and doing propaganda to elevate his Nazi party. Soon, Germans started to believe in his ideas. With this, Hitler was getting closer and closer to his main objective. However, there was another problem in his way, the president von Hindenburg.
Despite the increased of popularity in Hitler, president Hindenburg instincts did not trusted Hitler. Hindenburg came from a noble family and had a contact with a lot o powerful people. While Hitler, was an Austria man who came from a poor family. The president was discontent with the Weimar Republic. He wanted to make the German government more authoritarian and less democratic, which in other words means more corrupt. Even though, he was an old man he knew how to gain power. This was one of the main reasons why he became president. Germany was passing through social and political chaos. This gave president the power to rule by decree allowing him to control the government as he wanted to. Politicians took advantage of this to safeguard their own interest during the instability. However, crisis caused the rapid successions of chancellors. Every time a chancellor left, the new one had a shorter time as chancellor. Overall, the president was making decisions without thinking of the consequences leading to disapproval of the people.
All this problems were creating catastrophes around Germany. Hitler knew this was an opportunity he can not miss. Throughout this period, Hitler was recognised between the leaders of business, industry and agriculture. He took initiative to established strong relations, knowing it would guarantee protection. An important, rich business man named Hjalmar Schacht saw potential in him. As Hitler, Hjalmar detested anyone who was not German. In relation with this, it was clearly Schacht got along with Hitler. He suggested President Hindenburg to appoint him as the chancellor, but the president denied it. He maintained with Schleicher as the chancellor. However, Schleicher made some errors which were risking big business. Hindenburg was not willing to loose his positions and the pressure of changing chancellor increased.
Von Papen, ex chancellor, was asked to quit and then Schleicher was introduced into the chancellorship. There was resentment and jealously between them. Von Papen made a complot with Hitler in other to take Shleicher out .Hitler accepted as long he remained chancellor, because he knew that if he became vice chancellor he would not be able to take control. Von Papen was another influential man who had contacts with big business. During the years Hitler gained many followers both inside and outside the government. Eventually pressure from Hjalmar Schacht, Von Papen and the advisers led the president no option but to give in. Also, there were already 3 chancellors who were expelled. People started doubting about the decisions of the president. Initially he did not like Hitler, but if he would safeguard his position in power he would take the risk. In the end, Von Papen persuaded the president to appoint Hitler as chancellor if he has a minority amount of Nazi in the government. Von Papen assured the president he was going to controlled Hitler as vice chancellor or that’s what he thought.
There were other factors which aggravated the internal circumstances of Germany. The Great Depression created a big impact in the whole world, especially in Germany. She was devastated when it happened. Unemployment rose around the country, poverty destroyed many lives and people lost faith in their government. During the Golden Stresemann years, Germany increased its economy. However it was artificial because if U.S.A diced not to share more money Germany was ruined. By this, when the Great depression hit Germany, the chaos was extremely. The desire for a stronger country was inevitable. It was the second time Germans have similar conditions in 10 years with different reasons. People were tired of their inefficient government. Even tough, the country was in a catastrophe, politicians were worried only about themselves. Germans were desperate for a solution. Hitler was aware of this and took the opportunity to increment his support. While the German Republic was collapsing Hitler was building strength.
During the 1919 to 1923, Hitler learned and important fact which helped him became chancellor.
When he failed in the Munich Putsch, he realized how important it was to be aware of his surroundings. After this, he focuses in gaining support for the Nazi party. Eventually, it started increasing. First it started having a minority of 14 seats in government. However, the instability of the country and Hitler’s popularity increased even more the number of seats. It was not until the Great Depression occurred, when the Nazi party gained a large amount of seats. People lost hope in their government and Hitler offered them a new life. It was obvious which way many people would choose to go. The Nazi party had already won 230 seats which was not the greatest party, but generated an impact. The incapability for the Weimar Republic to ran the country influence strongly in his collapsing. By the time they new government was settle after WWI, the country was going through tremendous crisis. It was very difficult for them to handle the whole situation and stop the rebellions between the parties. Finally, when the Great Depression stroke Germany, it was too much for the Weimar Republic and subsequently destroyed it
completely.
Overall, it was evident Hitler was able to become chancellorship thanks the circumstances which led him build up strength and popularity around the country. The crisis in which the Germany was surrounded give opportunities to extremist people such as Hitler to take advantage of it and raise their power. The great Depression benefited Hitler in gaining more support and subsequently ended the Weimar government. He was an astute man who saw opportunities even in the most catastrophic situations. He was patient for the right moment to act and then win the approval of the people. Also, Selfishness between the politicians helped the great Depression and Hitler to strike even stronger in Germany. Because politicians, including the president were only worrying about themselves, they did notice about the consequences of their acts and what would happen to their country in the future. If they would have concerned about their country from the started maybe the history will be now different.
The influence of people also took a major part of Hitler becoming chancellor. Hitler knew how to take advantage of the people’s power and influence to get what he needed. He told the people what they wanted to hear and raised his popularity rapidly. Eventually, people were relying on him. Hitler knew how to established strong relation with the most important people.
