Hitler's rise to power

chancellor of Germany. Von Papen wanted a return to power so he made a deal with the Nazis. The deal was that Hitler would be Chancellor and Papen would be vice-chancellor. After a lot of persuasion by Von Papen Hindenburg took the risk and appointed Hitler Chancellor in January 1933. Von Papen told Hindenburg Hitler could be controlled. He was wrong.                                     f                                                                            This decision was very important because it legally gave him power. Using democracy to come to power was one of Hitler’s main aims. This would provide him with a government which he could rule and get rid of the Communist party, his most biggest opposition. He could now change Germany to a Nazi Germany. Also, his chancellor position enabled him to dismiss anyone who was against him, which made it a lot easier to become a dictator. The appointment gave Hitler the power, force and statureeheeneeded.                                                                                            There were also other factors that contributed to its rise of power, which strongly helped him to gain publicity, a lot of support in Germany andeincreasektheirjvotesjinjthehReichstag. The deep anger about the First World War and the Treaty of Versailles was an important point that created a very strong bitterness to which Hitler’shviciousnesshandhexpansionismhappealed, sso a lot of germans       gavehhimksupport. The Munich Putsch of 1923 (Hitler’s attempt to overthrow the Weimar Republic) we know completely failed and Hitler was arrested and put in prison. However, he used this attempt to gain publicity. During the year he was in prison he wrote a book, Mein Kampf (My struggle) in which hefexpressedgallfhisjthoughts.            . The Economic Depression was also a very important factor which contributed to its rise of power. Millions of people were left unemployed, homeless, without anything to eat. Hitler promised to end unemployment and to make Germany strong and powerful again, so they gaveehimesupport. Hitler’s personal qualities also convinced the people. He was a great speaker. The Party organised huge rallies where crowds listened to Hitler speak. This aptitude for public speaking kept him going when other people might have given up. His self-belief and self-determination persuadedhpeoplehtohbelieveoinohim.

If there hadn’t been a Depression, there couldn’t have been an emergency state which would enable Hindenburg to appoint Hitler Chancellor, if his personality and leadership skills weren't as good as they were Hitler wouldn't have got anywhere in life, if it was not for his oratory he could not use the Treaty of Versailles, the Depression to get support and go against Weimar Republic with good reasons. One thing leads to another. This shows that each cause is as important as the other. This is why its difficult to pick only one cause and make it more important than the others.
