Adolf Hitler - 50minutes
Adolf Hitler
Born: 20 April 1889 in Braunau am Inn, Austria
Died: 30 April 1945 in Berlin
Key information:
He organised the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP)
He installed a totalitarian political regime in Germany
He is responsible for starting WWII
He is responsible for the 20th century’s biggest genocide
Hitler is the 20th century’s most controversial figure. His name alone conjures images of the greatest horrors of our time. Yet there was nothing to suggest that this Austrian man was fated to such a shocking and historic destiny. He was passionate about art and hoped to make a career out of it, but was rejected from his attempts to pursue this field of study several times. This gave way to a dark period of his life, spent reading works which would radicalise his thinking and change the course of his life forever. A few years later, he left Austria and headed to Germany, a country whose power he admired. In 1914, he fought in WWI and showed great zeal in battle, but was injured in combat. He learned of Germany’s defeat on his sickbed. He was certain that this outcome was due to enemies working within the German nation itself: Jews and communists. On Hitler’s return to health, he was greeted by a country which had been plunged into chaos by the humiliating Treaty of Versailles. It was then that he joined the National Socialist German Workers’ Party and quickly rose through its ranks, reorganising its structures and becoming its leader. His ambitions went far beyond this; he planned to captain a whole new civilisation and protect Aryan purity; he would stop at nothing to achieve this goal. Despite his failed coup against the state in 1923, he was determined to rise to the top and lead the country, and Germany’s disastrous political condition at the time helped him do so. He appointed himself as Head of State and, led by his ideological convictions, used this as a platform for organising the most shocking crimes against humanity of modern history. In his wake, he would leave only ashes and blood.
