Answer 1

In what ways did the Nazi state seek to establish total control over the population?

They did, in ways as:

• Controlling their free time (see Kraft durch Freude)

• Conscription.

• Hitlersjugend. Teens were forced into it, and it was similar(for boys) to Sparta's training method for their kids, and girls were taught about being a housewife.

• Industry. It was controlled(indirectly) by the State, and was directed towards military production.

• Propaganda. Goebbels was a master at that one along with Hitler himself. For example, his speeches were really cautivating.

• Germans were kind of forced into believing Jews were their enemies (see above), with various movies, propaganda posters, speeches, and so on.
