5. HITLER
Adolf Hitler was born on 20th April 1889 at the Gasthof
zum Pommer, located at Salzburger Vorstadt 15, Braunau
am Inn, Austria-Hungary, a town on the border with Bavaria,
Germany. He was the fourth of six children to Alois Hitler
and Klara Pölzl (1860–1907). Hitler's older siblings—Gustav,
Ida, and Otto—died in infancy
6. Adolf Hitler was born
April 20, 1889.
His father would often beat him.
Adolf wanted to be a painter growing up.
At age 16 he dropped out of high school with no degree.
11. He was first considered “anti-Semitic” when he was living in Vienna,
although at the time he often tolerated and was seen interacting with
several Jewish families.Adolf Hitler was said to have been influenced by
authors such as Richard Wagner, Karl Lueger, and especially Martin
Luther who wrote On the Jews and their Lies “Blaming Germany's
military defeat on the 1918 Revolutions, he considered Jews the culprit
of Imperial Germany's downfall and subsequent economic problems as
well.” Hitler was involved in WWI on several levels of artistic and
strategic levels. He received many awards, but not promoted out of front
because he was considered to have been lacking leadership skills…how
ironic.

14. GREAT DEPRESSION
The Great Depression was the name of the
economic crisis that happened in America.
On one single day 24, October, 13 million
shares were sold. This was the beginning of
the Great Depression. During the following
years the national income of USA fell by Half.
The effect of the Great Depression was felt
worldwide.
Germans also been affected by it a lot.
20. ABOUT NAZI PARTY:-
This party was also known as Hitler ’s
army.
They hate Jews for many reasons such as
( loosen the first world war because of
them , they are the reasons for great
depression.)etc.
This party was active between 1920 –
until losing of world war 2.
22. HITLER & THE JEWS
Hitler sent his troops, to go and bring all the
Jews in German. He sent them to various
camps. The Jews were tortured and killed by
the cruel Nazis. There were certain camps
were the Jews were kept. They are,
i)Concentration camps,
ii)Extermination camps, and
iii)Gas Chambers
23. After World War I, Hitler remained in the army and was appointed a police spy, both to influence
other soldiers and to infiltrate the German Workers' Party.
During his inspection of the party, Hitler was impressed with founder Anton Drexler's anti-Semitic
ideas, which favoured a strong active government.
Hitler was discharged from the army in March 1920 and began participating full time in the party's
activities.

25. By early 1921, Hitler was becoming highly effective at speaking in front of large crowds.
In February, Hitler spoke before a crowd of nearly six thousand in Munich. To publicize the meeting,
he sent out two truckloads of party supporters to drive around with swastikas, causing a
commotion.
Hitler traveled to Berlin to visit nationalist groups during the summer of 1921, and in his absence
there was a revolt among the German Workers' Party.
When they realized the loss of Hitler would mean the end of the party, he seized the moment and
announced he would return on the condition
that he would be given dictatorial powers. At the
next gathering, Adolf Hitler was introduced as
Führer of the Party.
He then changed the name of the party to
National Socialist German Workers Party.

27. On November 8, 1923, Hitler stormed a public meeting. He declared that he had set up a new government
with General Erich Ludendorff and demanded, at gunpoint, the support.
He was soon arrested for high treason.
He was pardoned and released from jail in December 1924. He had served little more than one year of his
sentence.
Mein Kampf (My Struggle) was an autobiography and an exposition of his ideology. It was published in
two volumes. By the end of the war, about 10 million copies had been sold or distributed (newly-weds
and soldiers received free copies).
Having failed in overthrowing the Republic by a coup, Hitler pursued the "strategy of legality": this meant
formally adhering to the rules of the Republic until he had legally gained power and then
transforming liberal democracy into a Nazi dictatorship.
28. The political turning point for Hitler came when the Great Depression hit
Germany in 1930.Hitler went on to gain support by convincing most
Germans he was the savior from the economic Depression, communism, and
the Versailles Treaty, along with other minorities. In March, 1934, Hitler
publicly announced that the German army would be expanded to 600,000
men (six times the number set in the Treaty of Versailles).However, after re-
assurances from Hitler that Germany was only interested in peace, no
country took any action to stop this development and German re-armament
was allowed to continue. In March 1936, Hitler again violated the treaty by
reoccupying the demilitarized zone in the Rhineland. When Britain and
France did nothing, he grew bolder.
29. One of Hitler's social policies was the concept of racial hygiene.
It was based on the ideas social Darwinism. Applied to human beings, "survival of the fittest" was
interpreted as requiring racial purity and killing off "life unworthy of life."
The first victims were crippled and retarded children. After a public outcry, Hitler made a show of
ending this program, but the killings in fact continued.
30. Between 1939 and 1945, among 11 and 14 million people were systematically killed, including about
6 million Jews, in concentration camps, ghettos and mass executions.
To make for smoother cooperation in the execution of this "Final Solution", the Wannsee
conference was held near Berlin on January 20, 1942. The records of this meeting provide the
clearest evidence of planning for the Holocaust.
On 22 February, Hitler was recorded saying to his associates, "we shall regain our health only by
eliminating the Jews".
31. On June 22, 1941, three million German troops attacked the Soviet Union, breaking the non-
aggression pact Hitler had concluded two years earlier.
This invasion seized huge amounts of territory. It also encircled and destroyed many Soviet
forces. But the Germans were stopped short of Moscow in December 1941 by the Russian
winter and fierce Soviet resistance. The invasion failed to achieve the quick triumph Hitler
wanted.
By late 1944, the Red Army had driven the Germans from Soviet territory and entered Central
Europe.
32. In April 1945, Soviet forces were attacking the outskirts of Berlin. Hitler's followers urged him to
flee to the mountains of Bavaria. But Hitler was determined to either live or die in the capital.
On April 20, Hitler celebrated his 56th birthday in the "Führer's shelter“
By April 21, troops had broken through the defenses of German armies during the Battle of the
Seelow Heights.
The Soviets were now advancing towards Hitler's bunker with little to stop them.
33. Late on the 21, Gotthard Heinrici called Chief German General Staff of the Supreme Army
Command and told him that Hitler's plan could not be implemented. Heinrici asked to speak to
Hitler but was told that Hitler was too busy to take his call.
On the 22, during one of his last military conferences, Hitler interrupted the report to ask what
had happened to General Steiner's offensive. Hitler was told that the attack had never been
launched, and that the withdrawal from Berlin of several units for Steiner's army, on Hitler's
orders, had so weakened the front that the Russians had broken through into Berlin. This
concluded in an oath to stay in Berlin, head up the defense of the city, and shoot himself at the
end.
34. The Nazi concentration camp was a camp were the
Jews were staying. The Jews were given works to do
and they would get a small amount of labour.
