Although Adolf Hitler was a very confident man even he knew that there would be some opposition to his plans. Therefore he decided to focus a lot on persuading the youth of Germany to support him. By teaching them Nazi beliefs and ideas Hitler believed that these beliefs would stay with them for the remainder of their lives and would then be fed to the next generation. It was the future which Hitler was concerned about, and Germany’s youth was the future. Young people do not have as much knowledge or experience as adults and they are easily persuaded by propaganda so they will always be very important as they are easy targets. Also, Hitler could get rid of any present opposition by simply killing those who threatened him. But if he was going to succeed in the long run he would have to have full support, and therefore he had to make sure he had support of the young generation. When the Nazis came into power a young person’s life changed dramatically, every aspect of their lives was now very much linked with Nazism. Hitler wanted children to be so loyal to him that they should treat him like a God. He wanted them to be more loyal to him than to their own parents. He told children to report their parents if they were in any way opposed to his ideas. This caused much conflict between parents and children.

The economic instability and political unrest of the 1920s and 1970s offered extremist political groups the chance to criticize a more liberal political group or the ruling government either for not doing anything to fix the problems or for causing the problems in the first place.
Explanation:
- When Adolf Hitler and the Nazis acquired popularity and influence, te left-left leaders, socialists and Jews were blamed of Germany's failure during World War I, and of subsequent problems in the late 20s and in the early 1930s.
- In a parallel period of war in Cambodia, he Khmer Rouge seized strength. For decades, Cambodians have been resisting French colonialism. In the early 1970's a military coup backed by the US ousted the Cambodian government as Vietnam's war raged on the Cambodian frontier. A civil war soon started and a big element of the conflict was the Communist party in Cambodia, also known as the Khmer Rouge. More Cambodians started joining the Khmer Rouge as the war progressed and they eventually took power of the government after removing the members of the army.
- In both 1920s Germany and 1970s Cambodia, these circumstances permitted these authoritarian groups, the Khmer Rouge and the Nazis, to climb to power.
- Germany and Cambodia in the 1930s and 1970s treated imprudent rulers as well as vicious and corrupt governments. Through regular arrests or abuse, the Khmer Rouge and the Nazis converted their nations into police states. The Khmer Rouge and the Nazis oppressed anyone they found 'impure;' in death camps and massacres the Nazis and the Khmer Rouge brutally executed millions of their own people.
