They seized Berlin, kapp became chancellor, whilst the weimar government fied. This shows the as a reason for Nazis achieving Power as during the time of this weak and vunerable government the Nazis were promising a disciplined. government supported by a strong military style leadership. The Nazis used the weaknesses of the weimar republic. as an appeal for themselves.

INTRO A A+ RESENTMENT TOWARDS THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES Another factor that was an important reason why me Nazis achreved power was the On the 28th of June 1919 Germany signed one of the harshest peace treaty's in history, the treaty of versailles. The weimar government were allowed no say in the creaty. that made major effects to fermony, including & loosing 13% of land, army reduced to 100,000 men, Gemay had to pay £6.6 billion. in reperations as well as acceptrag. full responsivbruity for starting the mor. as a reason Nazi This shows the importance of the achieved power as thither treany's terms. had promised to reverse the He would say that they would take back their land lost, this appeared & farmers and land-owners.

Showing not have been able to the as less of a reason for Hyllers rise to power. र In evaluation, the wealchesses of the wermar republic were more important for timers achievement of power because the fact that politicians (not including stressenion). didnt renegotiate the terms of the treaty proves how discontent against them was easy. By the fact they signed. the treaty without renegotiation, the Nazis were able ther advantage by publicly berating the The Nazis long-term weakness of the wermor republic. subsequently gained votes dive to the weakness of government. to use this to INTRO P E APPEAL OF HITLER AND THE NAZIS The final factor that was a reason why the Nazis achieved power in 1933 was the Nazi polactes had a broad appeal which were popular across every sector of society. For example: they promised. jobs for the unemployed and the young, they told businessmen they would destroy communism, and told farmers they'd get paid more for their gogold. This shows the important factor for the Nazis achievement was an of power as they gained support sector of ferman society, whereas other focussed on one demographic, e.g. communits received support from pooner Germons. Rom every parties only However, the Nazi party polocies were clearly. contradictory (.e. they promised better wages for workers but als0 restricted the power of trade unions. Many Germans were able to see through the unredicon'c promises, these promises also only partly explain why they rose to power. Ta Appeals usually came from the Governments mistakes, appealed via betrating the government. ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES OVER THE PAGE →>>>>>> 3/3 CONCLUSION in conclusion, the most important reason for the Nazis achieving power in 1933. I Had the govemment been strenger, more reliable, and more popular was due to - they could have stopped crisis' sooner or from happening at all. This is why it helped the Nazi's achieve power more than economic dificulmes because had the politicians worced together instead of using article 48 during the Great Depression crisis the Government would've appeared less weale, the public wouldn't have been able to use the crisis. as an appeal. The were more important than the resentment towards the treaty of vecamies in helping Hitter achieve power because it was due to the fact that politicians signed the treaty without negoriating which made the Government appear weaker which the Nazis used as an appear (to get rid of the treaty + show the government was weak and unstable). The was also more important than the weaknesses + mrotaces of opponents because of me polttical parties could've worked together they could've stopped Hitler, but they didn't. due to the socialists priai ereatment of the because they couldn't get along with each other ch spartacests. The weimar government morpore created more divisions amongst opp, meaning. Partres less opposition against tiitter. The was also more important than the appear of the razis areason for the nazis achetving pouver as the Nazes were not able to gain the votes, the people who realised the contradictions in polacres did not vote for them. Many of their appeals would not have existed if the government had been stronger. E.g. they couldn't have appealed. increased land to farmers if they did not sign the reaty of Versalles, or if they had negotiated the treaty. Overall, the were the main reasons why the Nazis achieved power in 1938, as if the government was stronger the Nazis world! have been alde to take advantage. not of t A k A ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES Due to the treaty of Versaives making Germany pay £100 million per your for 66 years, the economy collapsed. The government began to print more money, however this led to the German mark becoming compared to northless. In less than 2 years the mark to $14.4 million marks the American dollar went from $7° 80 mares.

These people often torned to the Nazis for support. Another economic crisis Germany faced was the Great Depression.. USA Wall Street crash happened.. In 1929 she As a result the USA immediately demanded the repayment of their loans to Germany. But because Germany was reliant on these loans, again. Unemployment rose, the German economy collapsed.... business' closed, banks shut down, the coalition resigned with forced Hindenberg to operate under article 48. By 1932 30% of Germans were unemployed. This shows achieving was an important factor for the Nazis power as me government had now led Germany into financual ruin TWICE. Support for democracy collapsed, and the Nazis to gain more support as they promised jous to me chemployed. The Nazi vote July started went up to 13.7 million in 1982 A* However, not all the unemployed voted for the Nazis. Catholics remained. loyal to the centre party and many of the unemployed stayed with the sociales. During these temes communist vores also rose as they 100 used. as less of a the depression to their advantage. This shows factor as a reason the Nazis achieved ponse, as communists took German. potenmal votes from them, the Nazis dides persuade every In evaluation, the weaknesses of the wermar republic were more. important than economic dificultrest as a reason why Nazis achreved power in 1933 because the government made the 'difficuleres' worse. thereby meaning of the government was stronger the Nazis would've been ame to appeal to less people. For example, Hindenburgs use of article 48 to push forwards unpopular polocres made the government look weak. And the fact that democracy was ignored to push forwards these polocies made it easier for Germans to support the Nazis who promised to undo them.
