July, 5th saw the center party dissolved itself. By this time Hitler did not have further resistance and oppositions from the left-side of the political spectrum, due to the fact that the majority of the communists were already banned after the Reichstag fire (+ Thalmann arrested). The only party left with little chance to change the situation was the SPD. The SPD tried to remain in some control and influence of Hitlers government voted in support for Hitlers foreign policy. It was not long until the 22nd of June when the SPD was outlawed.
On the 8th of July the Concordat between the Nazi Germany and Vatican church was established. This resulted in the recognition of the Church by Nazi and Germany, promising that the government will let the church alone to run on its own and that the church should not interfere in any of the political aspects of the society; as Hitler had stated '...protect Christianity, which is the basis of our system of morality...' - Hitler's appeal to the German people (31.1.1933).
