Nazi S Essay, Research Paper
Nazi s
There were many circumstances in Germany that led to the
one party state. In 1918 military positions collapsed and
the abdication of the Tsar was a reality. Who became the
nest prime minister? Shortly after the abdication, a new
government known as the Weimar Republic went into power by
gaining a majority. The SPD was led by Ebert and he began
to draft the parties new constitution. The policies of the
constitution enabled Hitler and his party to enter
Parliament by proportional representation. He attracted
many votes in Parliament and it was up to the extent when
he almost gained a majority. This large number of votes
enabled him to be invited as chancellor because of the
political intrigue of the aristocrats. His chancellor role
enabled him to have enough power to use methods of
increasing his votes. Finally, he rose further and further
and he eventually became dictator.
In 1918 the Weimar took over and a new Constitution was
drafted. The policy of proportional representation allowed
the Nazi Party to take a seat in Parliament. Now they were
able to express political ideas and have some sort of
power, instead of using Putsch. The Nazis attracted so many
votes by manipulating the system of the Weimar Republic. In
its meetings they argued about the many issues of the
political system. There was the issue about the occupation
of the Ruhr by the French. This was allowed by the Weimar
Constitution. Hitler s listeners were discontent about this
because it made the German s feel guilty about the war and
it ruined their most industrial area. Tariffs were also a
discontented issues because farmers in Northern Germany
couldn t sell more of its goods over other cheaper imports.
The Young Plan was also bad because it extended the
reparations far too long. It made the Germans feel guilty
and it supported the French treaty. Inflations rose to
hyper-inflation, which made the Germans, especially the
middle class, unhappy because of several reasons. The
inflation decreased the value of money and because of firms
going bankrupt they couldn t take out their savings out of
the bank.
The Nazis rose further as it enhanced its ways of
increasing its votes. The brownshirts supported Hitler
and this enabled other parties to be harassed and the Nazi
Party to be protected. Support for Hitler was from his
finances he received from industries. This was obtained
because they opposed communism and trade unions. Hitler
promised them that they ll (the trade unions) be abolished
when he went to power.
Hitler began to rise at an alarming rate of votes. This
enabled him to be invited as chancellor. The aristocrats
invited him, hoping to increase their own power by
controlling Hitler. This was the aristocrat s political
intrigue. This power enabled Hitler to gain emergency
power. The Reichstag Building was burnt down and a
communist named Lubbe, was accused of the arson. Hitler
used this excuse to allow himself to gain the Emergency
Powers and in affect arrest those who were against
communist subversion. In his next election he gained a
majority with the Nationalists, which allowed him to
install the Enabling Act. The Enabling Act gave him the
power to suspend the constitution for 4 years. This allowed
him to gain the power to abolish all parties and so he did
and his life as a dictator started.
Hitler and his Nazi Party gained their one party state by
the series of incident they experienced through their
development. The flaws and the Weimar Republic and the
position of Germany allowed Hitler to create his one party
state. His orating skills and emotive issues allowed him to
gain as many votes to have him invited as chancellor. His
position as chancellor allowed him as much power to be
able to finish off his development of a one party state.
