germany:
weimer republic- wanted to establish more of a democratic gov't
hitler came to power legally
hindenburg was the president
their economy was in ruins
had huge war debts to pay off
hitler allowed the nazis to come into the government and the government became more of a dictatorship
hitler didn't want a democracy anymore; the nazi party was the only way to go in his opinion
hitler blamed the communists on burning down one of the gov't buildings
hitler never won the popular vote for president; hindenburg appointed him
he promised jobs and he did; military and what not; people began to support him because he kept his promise
people were beginning to become proud to be a german again
had the military and the police uunder his command
had to kill off all competition
it wasn't jews at first
he blamed the jews for having all of the money during the depression and accused them of wanting to take over all of money all over the world
he destroyed germany
to be continued..........
great britain:
winston churchill was their leader; prime minister
his attitude inspired people; he never wanted to surrender
he helped make germany pay for the war damages
didn't get very much money
got territories in africa
huge part in the war
