Why did Hitler Start WW2...


Right, you wanna know why Hitler started World War 2?

Well to be honest not many people know. There are loads of different reasons that people think. EG: People thought he was a bit mental... His mother dying... All sorts of reasons, but none has been selected as the main problem...

Hitler was whipped by his dad as a young boy, he didn't do well at school, he lived basically on the streets at 19... the only thing that probably kept him going was his mother, Klara. Who loved and doted him...

Right, time to go down memory lane..... Adolf Hitler was born in a lower middle class family, so basically they weren't very rich or important... (A bit weird, when the one of the family became the leader of WW2 for the Germans...)

He was born in Braunau-am-Inn, Austria. Hitler loved drawing, and was very god at it, but he was regected from the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. For YEARS he tried to become a famous painter, but poverty made him struggle.

Hitler joined the army in 1916, WW1, and he won the Iron Cross Second Class and the Iron Cross First Class, but then he was wounded.

After WW1 ended struggled for years to secure the Nazi Political Party, but then he was sent to prison in 1923. He was given a 5 year sentence, but he was only in there for 6 MONTHS! He was arrested for participating in a failed coup against the Bavarian government...


Hitler won only 37% of the German votes in the 1932 election. He was appointed Chancellor by Paul von Hindenburg, the figurehead President of Germany in 1933!!! Which was a huge stepfor him and all the Germans...


Hitler became power over a country that was the laughing stock of Europe, so he was determined to bring it back up to its original standards.

However during his first four years of power Hitler did not start a war. He waited until he could end unemployment and bring Germany to a level of prosperity that could support war. It was during his next four years that he started a war and began the mass murder of people he considered the enemies of Germany.


So he started the war and started a mass murder, basically ALL OVER THE WORLD! Even though, after the WW1 was lost, they were only allowed 100,000 army men, Hitler didn't care and increased that to millions, he built more ships and tanks and basically EVERYTHING!


To end... was it Hitler's fault that all of this happened? Of course you might think it was! And think what is she SAYING!

But think about it... After all that Hitler had been through, could you actually BLAME him??

Maybe he was crazy... maybe his horrible childhood affected it...

Who knows, and to be perfectly honest... I don't think no one will ever know....

REAL LIFE

My mums partner said that his MOTHER was German, but she didnt convert into a Nazi... she got married in Berlin then moved over to England. MANY people dispised her, but she still had a brave face...

SHE saw Hitler twice! In parades mostly... she said he was a very small man compared to most people, but he had the voice of a bull!
