This removed the rights of the people. During this time, Hitler created the Enabling Act which allowed him to pass any laws he wanted without the approval of the parliament and president. Hitler was able to take full control now that he had the rights to make decisions. ]]> 2020-02-05 04:09:29 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440734062 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440735881 Hitler started to slowly started to take control of the races, at first he banned interracial marriages preventing Germans from marrying any other racial group. He forced schools into teaching racist ideas and to enforce this all teachers had to take an oath in loyalty to him.

To do this Hitler used propaganda, he wanted everyone to have a common fear which was ultimately communism. He then placed one of his most trusted associates, Joseph Geobbles in charge of all propaganda. He created the Reich Ministry For Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda which had the sole purpose of spreading Nazi ideology. Hitler had all books and any sources that would outshine him and were considered "un- German" burned. ]]> 2020-02-05 04:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440737544 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440741710 2020-02-05 04:45:55 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440741710 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440741966 Hitler's rise to power ultimately began when Germany lost WW1. They had a significantly high number of causalities and their economy was collapsing. On top of that Germany was being punished by the Treaty of Versailles. They had to pay a large amount of reparations and their economy couldn't support. Germany with one of the best militaries in the world was now being forced to lessen their military power. Germany also had to give up a significant amount of their territory. All of this left the Germans hungry, jobless, and feeling humiliated.]]> 2020-02-05 04:47:20 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440741966 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440743806 When Hitler saw that Germany was furious with the Treaty Of Versailles he took it as an opportunity to unify the country. He gained their support and said he would get rid of the treaty. Part of what made Hitler seem so appealing to the people was his ability to speak and motivate crowds, this helped him rise to power.]]> 2020-02-05 04:56:31 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440743806 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440744811 Hitler, once having gained power, felt it fit to broadly commit genocide against several groups of people. One of those groups was disabled people. Thought to be "unfit for life", Hitler used his newfound control to group them together and murder them]]> 2020-02-05 05:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440744811 pismith1 https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440747256 With the help of the Nazi Party Hitlers popularity increased. He eventually persuaded president Hindenburg to name him Chancellor. However Hitler was still power hungry so when Hindenburg died and the head of the stormtroopers, Roem, took over as president, Hitler had him killed and became the new president. ]]> 2020-02-05 05:17:41 UTC https://padlet.com/pismith1/86b4b216ouai/wish/440747256
