Adolf Hitler saw that in order for his Germany to succeed, the masses must be rounded up, and mobilized into fearless population, ready for war. The chains that restrained the Weimar Republic were free, and Hitler was able to implement policies that would forever change Germany’s place in history. Through propaganda and state takeover of institutions, Hitler was able to coordinate the citizens of Germany to work for the betterment of the community rather than one’s self. Reforms put in to place by Hitler’s regime often imposed strict guidelines for the average German citizen, something that many had longed for, after the dissolution of the Second Reich. One of Hitler’s main areas of focus, in his attempts to coordinate the masses, was the youth.
