SECTION 1: Beginnings In 1919 the German Workers’ Party, Nazi Party, or Third Reich was formed by Anton Drexter and Karl Harrer. This group supported German pride and anti- Semitism. Adolf Hitler joined this party the same year that it was founded. Hitler became the groups leader in 1921. He earned this position by giving public speeches on how the Jews and Marxists were at fault for all of Germany’s problems. These speeches also attracted new members to the group. This group promised that problems such as unemployment, inflation, and hunger will be resolved. They earned initial support because people wanted to fix the economic depression, unemployment, and Nazi Partywas appealing to nationalist. On January 30,1933 Hitler was appointed Chancellor by President Paul Vin Hindenburg.
SECTION 2: Event During Hitler’s command, he came up with up with this concept of United Germany. This concept was that everyone would have a set destiny and purpose. The people of Germany would also be biologically the same. Hitler wanted them to be “ racial pure” so every one would look the same and be built strong. This “race” was called the Aryan Master Race. Anyone who didn't fit the description was sent to a concentration camp. Some examples were the Jews, Gypsics, other races and religious groups, and even Germans with hereditary disease. The way Hitler “formed” Germany was by taking these main procedures. First he controlled who married who, second he controlled who would have kids and who wouldn’t, and thirdly he had research done on tobacco, alcohol, and syphilis. He had research done on these three things because he predicted that they were “genetic poisons”. He later outlawed tobacco and alcohol. In 1933 the Nazi’s open their first concentration camp in Dachau, Germany. People that were artist, intellectuals, Jew, Gypsies, the physically and mentally handicap,and homosexuals were sent here. Thousand were killed at this camp from malnutrition, disease, overwork, and execution. On September 1, 1939 the Nazis invaded Poland. When they invaded Poland this initially started World War II because then France and Great Britain declared war on Germany. The Nazi’s plan was to take over all of Europe. But this plan started to fade away when the United States entered the war. When the Nazis realized this they came up with the “Final Solution”. The Final Solution was that they were going to kill every one in all of the concentration camps. At the end of the Final Solution about six million Jews alone died. This number does not include the other groups that were brought to the camps.
SECTION 3: Results In the end the Nazi Party lasted twelve years. (1933-1945) The group was destroyed when Germany git defeated in WWII. The Nazi Party was outlawed and its symbol ( the swastika) became the symbol of evil. Also a number of Nazi officials were convicted of war crimes. They were sent to the Nuremberg Trials in Nuremberg, Germany. The trials lasted from 1945-1949.
