    ‘Fear of Communism best explains Hitler’s appointment as Chancellor in January 1933’. To what extent do you agree with this opinion? During Germany’s period of depression votes for extremist parties‚ such as the Nazis and Communists‚ increased as people were desperate for something new and in January 1933 Hitler was appointed chancellor. The most important reason as to why Hitler was appointed chancellor was because of the attitude of the elite as they would be the one deciding who to be chancellor

    I think the type of resistance that would have been the most effective against the growing power of the Nazi government is discreet subversive resistance. This is because if one were to outspokenly in clear daylight help a Jew or show dissent in any way‚ the Nazis would have dealt the person with severe punishment‚ probably death. In this case‚ yes‚ that person is helping a Jew and is doing a good deed‚ but it would most probably result in death as soon as the Nazis found out which would be a short

    Short term it was a disaster‚ Hitler was unable to successfully depose the government of Munich under Gustav von Kahr. He turned up at a beer hall where von Kahr was speaking stood on a table‚ fired a shot into the ceiling to silence the crowd and announced the Bavarian government was being overthrown and demanded that von Kahr surrender and hand over power. Hitler had 600 men surrounding the hall and a machine gun set up in the lobby. Elsewhere in Munich Hitler had the SA under Ernst Roehm seize

    Why was the Putsch considered a success? On the 8th of November 1923‚ after Hitler had taken Kahr and all the leaders of the right- wing groups hostage‚ due to Ludendorff letting Kahr free‚ the Putsch fails. This led to the Nazis being outnumbered and Hitler falling and dislocating his arm‚ being arrested and consequently being forced to go to trial. Before Hitler’s trial he was very depressed. He had no more hope for the Putsch and thus went on a hunger strike. Though‚ before his trial he

    ’The transformation in the fortunes of the Nazi part in the years 1930-1933 was largely because of Hitler’s talents as a politician’ how far do you agree with this opinion? In the early twentieth century the Nazi party (NSDAP) was a small extremist party renowned for it’s use of violence and its beliefs such as anti-Semitism and anti-marxism. The party believed that the treaty of Versailles was wrong and unfair thus needed opposing; this was done through a military coup that ultimately failed

    When it comes to analyzing how the Night of Long Knives would’ve affected Hitler’s rise to power I feel that it is important to first address where Hitler political was at before the night of long knives took place and what was accomplished after the night of long knives. Before the night of long knives‚ Germany was governed by the Weimar republic from 1919 to 1933 and the president at that time was Paul von Hindenburg. In the Weimar Republic‚ the left sides were the Communists (KPD) and the Social

    The Night of the Long Knives was very important in helping Hitler become a chancellor as it consolidated his power eternally.

On the 29th June he fixed both these problems arresting and executing over 300 hundred of the SA including their leader Rohm who a good friend of Hitler. This not only pacified the army‚ the only organisation with
