HITLER HOMEWORK | WAS THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES THE REASON WHY HITLER CAME TO POWER?
How the Treaty of Versailles helped Hitler
The Treaty of Versailles, agreed by the German government and the Allies in 1919, stated that Germany had to pay the Allies $33 billion in compensation for the damage caused during the First World War. The economic and social consequences of having to repay this debt made the German people poorer and caused them to look to new leaders like Hitler to stand up to challenge the government.
Other reasons that helped Hitler to power
- Hitler was a very persuasive speaker. For example, imprisononed in 1923 for trying to overthrow the Bavarian Government in Munich, he persuaded most of the prison staff to convert to the Nazism.
- Hitler’s view on the German Nation was more in line with the peoples than the ruling Weimar Government he despised. Hitler accused them of giving up in the First World War and blamed them for economic ruin as they failed to stand up to the allies after the war.
- Hitler was awarded the Iron Cross in the first world war for bravery which added to his image of being loyal to Germany.
- Effective propaganda orchestrated by the Nazi party.
- The powers of the police (SS) was enhanced to protect Hitler from opposition.
Opinion & Conclusion
Hitler came to power in Germany on a policy of promising of reverse the decline of Germany caused by having to repay a massive debt to the Allies. In my opinion it is highly unlikely that Hitler, or the Nazi Party that he led, would have come to power in Germany if it had not been for the negative economic and social consequences of the Treaty of Versailles. However, there were also some other personal reasons, like Hitler’s effective public speaking skills, loyalty to Germany and the support of the Nazi Party, that contributed to his rise to power. In summary, the negative consequences of the Versailles Treaty helped Hitler persuade the Nazi Party and the German people, that the Weimar government that signed the treaty in 1919 had to be removed and that his radical plan could restore Germany to its former glory.

Directed by Leni Riefenstahl, The Triumph of the Will is Nazi propaganda par excellence. Filmed in Nuremberg during the Nazi Party Congress in 1934 this hour and three quarter rant is Nazi-party idolatry at its very worst. Unsurprisingly, Hitler commissioned the movie to exhibit the magnificence of the Third Reich.
Having won critical acclaim for its state of the art cinematic techniques and striking visuals, Riefenstahl’s The Triumph of Will is regarded by some as one of the best films ever made. I wouldn’t go that far, but it’s certainly one to watch for anyone puzzled about how the Nazi party managed to fool the German people into allowing to Hitler dismantle their democracy within eighteen months.

olksauto – The People’s car
Hitler’s idea of making a car for the working classes was revolutionary in 1930s Germany. The Volksauto (later renamed the Volkswagen, meaning “the people’s car”) was built at a price ordinary people could afford. Hitler’s decision to put the car into production also gave the German motor industry, that was struggling at the time, a much needed boost. A few weeks after Hitler’s order to build the Volksauto was given, the flagging motor trade started to recover. Unsurprisingly, 80 years on, what today we know as the Volkswagen Beetle, remains as popular, as ever. Thanks Adolf.
PS. AGENTS & PUBLISHERS There's is more about Volksauto in the full submission.

Member of the Danish Nazi party in the late 1930s, Dr Carl Værnet specialised in hormone research; including treatments to “cure” homosexuality.'
"After Denmark was occupied by the Nazis, few patients visited Værnet’s clinic because of his pro-Hitler sympathies. This prompted him to approach the Nazis, who were well known for their hatred of gay people and their bid to “eliminate the perverted world of the homosexual”. Værnet met the chief Nazi doctor, Reichsarzt-SS Ernst Grawitz, who proposed that he research the treatment of homosexuality on behalf of the SS..." Peter Tacthell said.
