A nice question! I am happy you asked about 'dictatorships' and not just asked about one, Germany. Yes there were many dictators around at that time. Japan, Italy, Russia and Germany. The reasons are many, for example; WW1 classed as the War to End all Wars, gave nothing to the ordinary people. The Soldiers returning, had no jobs! Heroes, yes, but who cared? The public noticed that the only people who made money out of the war, were the owners of big business' who sold Arms to both sides. Then there was the massive inflation of the 1920/1930s,people lost their jobs, their homes, and some their lives. It only needed clever men, good speakers, who told the people what they thought anyway, but could not say themselves. They promised, Jobs, Food, Holidays paid by the State, good living standards for all. All they had to do, was get rid of these rich owners of the big factories, who bled the people dry. So people believed them, and followed them. Only later, did they find out that these clever speakers only wanted POWER, and were not interested in the 'people'. But by then it was too late! Nothing has changed! There are still 'clever' people about, in a great many Countries, who promise everything to the people, but in truth only want POWER! This was a good question, for by asking it, it may make people 'THINK' and in doing so, the people may be able to see 'through' the words, and by thinking, may stop another dictator from getting what he wants...Power!
