Essay / Hitler and the Nazi Party - 675
Contrary to popular belief, no one is born evil. Even the world's worst tyrants were once innocent and benevolent. Most became the way they are because of unfortunate events in their lives. This was the case of Führer Adolf Hitler. Hitler was born in Austria on April 20, 1889. He had a calamitous childhood and a series of deaths in his family occurred during his growing up. Although he was Austrian, he admired Germany for its immense power and accelerated technology. He therefore joined the German army during the First World War. Wounded in battle, Hitler was sent to hospital, where he learned that Germany had surrendered during the war. Enraged by his country's weakness, Hitler threw himself into politics. He vowed to make Germany the most powerful nation in the world. At first, Hitler thought that legally gaining power would take too long and be ineffective, so he staged a coup to overthrow the government. Unfortunately for him, his plan failed and Hitler was imprisoned. Although treason was a major crime at the time, the guards thought it was negligible and Hitler was released after a few months. After his release, Hitler had the cruel idea of bringing him to political power; he accused the Jews of being responsible for Germany's loss in the war and promised that Germany would become powerful again if all Jews were exterminated. What a stupid and unnecessary idea, you may think, but instead of disapproval and discouragement, Hitler got support. More than three million people supported Hitler in politics. It was with this encouragement that Hitler's horrible regime was born. On August 2, 1934, Hitler became the Furher of Germany. He believed that Germany should only be occupied by a superior “Aryan” race. Despite the fact that Hitler himself did not respect the definition of Aryan, middle of paper ......e, the Franks went into hiding. They moved into a small group of rooms, with a few other people, at the top of an office building, called the "Secret Annex." In little company, Anne wrote a diary, giving a detailed description of her life during the war. It's a touching story, and it's now one of the best-selling books in the world. It tells how Jews suffered during the Holocaust. So why do you need to know all this depressing information? The answer is deeply rooted in human psychology. As humans, we always want people to be blamed for something wrong, to be given a scapegoat for a problem. We always want to place the blame on someone who is innocent. Of course, this is not morally correct, or at all. We must learn to accept our mistakes so that nothing this horrible happens again. We never want to make people suffer like Hitler did during the Holocaust..
