discuss why nazism became popular in germany by 1930
Answers
The increase in Nazism's popularity is most likely due to the great depression that hit the world soon before. Before the depression hit Germany was starting to recover, the people has a larger variety of consumer products, there was a sufficient amount of food, their war reparation amount was also being reduced as other countries grew sympathetic. Life in Germany was well. However, as depression hit multiple countries started to block trade, germany lost mulitiple export markets and there was no way to earn enough foreign exchange to import items that it did not produce, also other contries such as the USA started calling back the debts it gave Germany during tough times. Now the people suddenly lost their jobs, had nothing to eat, no roofs over their heads. At this point there was utter chaos, yet Hitlet and the Nazis showed they could bring order. Among all the chaos Nazis were very organized they showed this via the structure of the SS and SA. They gave the people scapegoats for their problems; the Treaty of Versailles; the November Criminals. They showed the people a better germany and a better life for them. Prior to the depression the Nazis barely had any seats in the riechstag, after the depression though, they were the single largest party.
Answer :-
In 1919 Adolph Hitler took over the German Workers’ Party and called it the Nazi Party, giving birth to Nazism in Germany.
During the Great Economic Depression Nazism became very popular. The Nazi Propaganda which was very unique helped in making Nazism very popular. In his powerful speeches, Hitler promised to build a strong nation, restore the dignity of the Germans and provide employment for all. Numerous public meetings were held by the Nazi Party to instil unity among the people.
The red banners, the Nazi salute, and the rounds of applause attracted the people and Nazism became very popular. The Meetings projected Hitler as a saviour of Germany. The German people who were shattered after the First World War believed him.
