=The Devastating Rise of Adolf Hitler=

Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 in Braunau am Inn, Austria. However, he was mostly raised in Linz. His original last name was Schicklgruber, his mother's maiden name. Later on, he used his stepfather's last name, Hitler. In 1905, the year he was supposed to graduate, he left secondary school without a certificate of graduation. Trying to move on from that experience, he tried to apply to the Acadamy of Fine Arts but he failed, twice. When WWI broke out in 1914, Adolf enlisted into the 16th Bavarian Reserve Infantry. Hitler found his talent in war, recieving many awards for his hard work. During 1920, Hitler retired from the war and started working full-time, with a passion for his country and the military.

World War I was hard on all countries, but especially Germany. After World War I, The Treaty of Versailles was written to create peace with Germany. The Treaty considered Germany a threat and that they wouldn't cause problems in Europe anymore. To ensure that this would be true, they reduced their army to only 100,000 men. As well as, heavy artillery and aircrafts could not be used anymore. Their navy was restricted to 15,000 sailders. In addition, Germany was demanded to pay war reparations that were set very high. Germany couldn't even pay the debt and caused international economics.

With Germany left in the dust after World War I, they were left angry and bitter. Therefore, they decided to come up with new army tactics and more importantly, a new leader, Adolf Hitler. With many restrictions, German controllers came up with ways of creating a loop hole around these new rules. For instance, they created an army of the top leaders, and when the time was right, they would add many more people where their army could still be effective. Another example is, they had a treaty with Russia where they could create weapons in their factories. Hitler wanted to expand the German empire, which could only be down through war. Which is what started, World War II.

After entering and fighting in World War I, Adolf Hitler went from a boring, uneducated guy to a motivated person, but for only one thing, fighting and conquering. With that in mind, he joined German Worker's Party, also known as the Nazi Party. Ranking as the president of the group, he started leading strong speeches on street corners about their enemies, the Jews, and Communists along with peace creators. He led a rant to try to overpower the Bavarian government, but got quickly ended when the police stepped in and sentenced Hitler to five years in jail. During that time, he took time to think of how to make his dreams come true. He started creating plans for Germany and how to expand their living quarters in a book called //Mein Kampf, "//My Struggles." When Hitler got out of jail only serving nine months, he started to build up the Nazi Party. In 1929, he increased the number of seats the Nazi Party had in government by 95 seats. Thus leading the Nazi Party, the second largest political party in Germany.

During the 1932 election, the Nazi's were so powerful that Paul von Hidenberg, the president of Germany, gave the title of chancellor to Hitler. Now with Hitler in power, he began to work out his plans from his book, //Mein Kampf.// He created a dictatorship in Germany, and he would execute those who were in way of his power. In August of 1934, Hidenberg passed, appointing Hitler as the new president of Germany. However, he liked to call himself the Supreme Power of the Third Reich.

When fighting during World War II, Germany used a way of fight known as //Blitzkrieg. Blitzkrieg,// was a term called lightening war. They would destroy the nation's Air Force, major cities, transportation, and their government, leaving them blind. Then, they would go in by tanks and destroy the rest of their country.

Josef Goebbels, helped Hitler rise to power. When Hitler was released from jail, Goebbels was one of his men to strengthen the Nazi party. Josef Goebbels was a very powerful propagandist. He also took care of the delicate work. For example, when Hitler created the Nuremberg Racial Laws, which deprived Jews of their citizenship, Goebbels would take care of the situation and build the economy back up.

After gaining the presidency, Hitler created his own police officers called the Gestapo. The Gestapo, however were a secret police force. The person leading this group was Heinrich Himmler. He also ran the SS - //Schutzstaffel//, also called, the Black Shirts. The SS would take all the people Hitler felt didn't belong in Germany, political people not supporting his ideas, Jews, and others to concentration camps.

In 1947, Hitler passed the Nuremberg Principles. One of these principles dealt with the mentally disabled, Hitler felt like wouldn't help prosper Germany called euthanasia program. Euthanasia, was considered a "good death" exterminating the mentally disabled and people with disabilities. However, during the Nazi rule, they would label euthanasia program with their medical experimentation. While at the concentration camps, they would perform different medical procedures that lead to many deaths of innocent people. They would try different experiments with medicine on these people, for research leaving the doctors left even more clueless.

These are innocent people who died because of Hitler and his desires to gain a bigger empire. In concentration camps, people weren't fed properly, nor did they have the benefit of being treated like actual humans. Many innocent suffered because of one person's desires.
