The people of many nations felt intense pride in their country and the people they identified with. Document I, an excerpt from the textbook depicted a German individual with intense nationalist pride. Intense national pride and nationalism represented one major factor that led to the rise of Fascist regimes. Document L provided evidence of nationalist advocacy for the rise of truly German people above others.

The Nazi Party was revered and feared because they were able to exploit people’s fears. The Nazi party existed before the rise of Hitler, but they were a small and virtually unnoticeable party. The entire world was hit by an economic depression in the early 1930s and Germany was not immune. The people of the country were angry and impatient and feared that their parliament was too weak to rectify the economic situation.
This caused the Nazi Party to again become a fringe party until 1929 when the wall street crash and great depression cleared the way for Hitler's road to power as the poverty and unemployment (6 million unemployed) caused the people to feel even more frustrated at the MMP socialist democratic government and look towards a strong leader that would show them the way to recovery. Although the Weimar republic gave more power to the people of Germany than a government ever had before, it was far too wear for what Germans needed during this time. This allowed Hitler and his party to gain even more attention. Powerful interests that assisted Hitler's rise to power involved the constant invoking of article 48 during the political vacuum in Germany the article was used by politicians in an attempt to break the political stalemate of this in the 1930s. Bruening was one politician to have used it especially often.
As a result, the Nazi Party exploited these ideas and created systems that would appease Germans, helping them rise to power in Germany. Moreover, the Nazi Party strategically scapegoated the communists to quickly rise to power. One of Hitler’s biggest obstacles to his power was the Communist Party, he recognized them as a major threat and sought to eliminate them in order to secure his political position. Document 7 highlights Hitler's response to the Reichstag fire: “The fire in the German parliament building broke out a month after Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. He accused Communists of starting the fire and then used it as an excuse to launch attacks on the Communists”.
Vo, Kayla Period 3 3/28/14 The Nazi Party’s Ascension to Power in Germany The signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 intended to bring worldwide peace after World War I and to penalize Germany for being responsible for the casualties that resulted. The penalty caused Germany to lose its pride, power, and nationalism, thus leaving the country in a helpless economic state and in an abyss. This poor condition after the Great War in 1918 caused citizens to have a strong will for change, which provided the perfect stage for political parties to rise in power. One political party in particular, the National Socialist German Worker's Party--otherwise known as the Nazi Party--captured the interest of the German public.
In the children’s book Trust No Fox on His Green Heath and No Jew on His Oath , Elwira Bauer invites her youthful audience through a series of stories to inspire them to align with the Nazi’s cause and racial theory.

Although the main causes of World War II were mostly economic, some of the causes were invasion of other countries. Hitler was a very strong speaker.

Founded in 1919 as the German Workers’ Party, the group promoted German pride and anti-Semitism, and expressed dissatisfaction with the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, the 1919 peace settlement that ended World War I. Through the 1920s, Hitler gave speech after speech in which he stated that unemployment, rampant inflation, hunger and economic stagnation in postwar Germany would continue until there was a total revolution in German life. Most problems could be solved, he explained, if communists and Jews were driven from the nation. His fiery speeches swelled the ranks of the Nazi Party, especially among young, economically disadvantaged Germans.
The Nazi German party was created by Adolf Hitler in 1933 to help rebuild Germany post world war one. The Germans were forced to sign a peace treaty in the aftermath of the war that severely stinted the rights of the Germans. They were not allowed to build or maintain an army, they had to surrender territories they owned, and they were made to take complete responsibility of the war and thusly pay compensations for all the damages caused by it (Treaty of Versailles, 1919). Hitler felt this was unfair and wanted to unite Germany to rebel and rise to its former glory. He united the crumbling nation by giving them a common enemy, the Jewish.

The Nazi capture of power has come to occupy a rather peculiar position in the history of Germany. This significance rests more on what happened after 1933 when Adolf Hitler and his Nazi group lead the greatest mass movement with the broadest popular appeal that Germany had ever seen. The persecution of Jews, the downfall of the Weimar Republic and the appeal to the public of Germany through propaganda has jet packed the Nazis and Hitler to power through the themes of war, racism, anti-Semitism, violence and order explains and demonstrates how the Nazis rose to power.
