1933-1945: Nasionalsosialism Period
Hitler gained power not by a big victory in the general election. But he would not become Reich Chancellor in January 1933 if he did not lead the strongest party. In elections for the Reichstag last in the era of the Weimar Republic on November 6, 1932, Nazi party lost two million votes compared with the results of the election on July 31, 1932. Instead of the Communist Party managed to get an extra 600,000 votes, thereby reaching the magical figure of 100 seats Reichstag. Success of the Communist Party of Germany (KPD), it increases fears of civil war. The fear that's strongest ally of Hitler, especially among the conservative power elite. Thanks to the recommendation to the Hindenburg, on January 30, 1930 Hitler was appointed by the President of the Reich as the chancellor who led a cabinet member conservative majority.
To remain in power for twelve years of the Third Reich, not quite run terror against all those different opinions. Hitler gained support from most of the workers, because he managed to remove the mass unemployment in a few short years. Success was primarily based on industry konyungtur weaponry. Support workers can be maintained by Hitler during World War II. You do this by squeezing labor and resources in areas of the cruel occupation, so that the mass of the German people do not experience such a severe shortage in World War I. Great success in the field of foreign policy in the years preceding the war, especially the occupation of the Rhineland area of the original military-free zone and the "annexation" of Austria in March 1938, making Hitler's popularity soared at all levels of society. Myths about the Reich and its historical mission, which deftly manipulated by Hitler, especially the influence of educated Germans. Their support is needed by a charismatic leader or Führer, if he wanted to make Germany Europe's strengths in sustainable stylist. Instead it requires Hitler among the educated, because in their eyes there is no other figure who is able to realize the dream of a big country of Germany.
In various election campaigns in the early 1930s, Hitler did not cover his hostile to Jews, but also not menonjolkannya. Among workers, which would be embraced by all parties, this attitude was not welcomed. Among the educated citizens and are, so also among artisans, small businessmen and farmers, anti-Jewish prejudice was widespread, but they do not like "a noisy anti-Semitic." Events dispossession of the Jews in Germany through Ras Act which was passed in Nuremberg in September 1935 did not result in protest, because it does not violate the legal formalities. Violence and riots on the night of 9 November 1938 (Reichskristallnacht) is not popular, in contrast to "lawyer-arya of" Jewish property, an action the transfer of property on a large scale that its impact felt up to now. The news about the Holocaust, the systematic extermination of European Jews during World War II, spread more widely than is desired by the Nazi regime. But for something to know there needs to be curiosity, and concern the fate of the Jews, the last thing is less in Germany at the time of "Third Reich".
In the history of Germany, the fall of the Reich "great German" Hitler's leadership in May 1945 meant a turning point in a much bigger impact than the collapse of the empire in November 1918.Integrity of the Reich itself was not touched after World War I. After the unconditional capitulation at the end of the Second World War, in addition to the powers of government, the authority to determine the future of Germany also moved into the hands of the occupation of the four countries, namely United States, Soviet Union, Britain and France. Unlike in 1918, in 1945, political leaders and military power of Germany revoked. Officials are still alive tried by the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg (Nürnberg Case-Case). The nobles latifundium owners east of the River Elbe, which groups more involved in the process of destruction of the Weimar Republic and the transfer of power to Hitler than any other power elites, loss of land and property. There had to leave their homelands due to separation region east of the River Oder and Neisse River near Görlitz from German territory, then placed under Polish administration or, in the case Ostpreußen the north, under the administration of the Soviet Union. Land owned by another part of the landlords was confiscated in the context of land reform in the Soviet occupation zone.
Unlike the situation after 1918, after the year 1945 does not sound German legend about the innocent trigger war or "dagger stab legend". It is obvious that the Germans who nasionalsosialis sparked World War II, and can only be overthrown from the outside by a superior allied forces. Both in the First World War and the Second, Germany's propaganda machine describes the states of Western democracy as a plutocracy imperialist, and order of Germany itself as the perfect embodiment of social justice. It makes no sense if the post-1945 Western democracy again attacked. Due to underestimation of the political ideas of the West, Germany had to pay very high prices, and the old slogans will not sell anymore.
