What party did Adolf Hitler head?

Answer 1

Hitler became Führer (leader) of the Nationalsozialistische deutsche Arbeiter Partei(NSDAP or just Nazi) (National Socialist German Workers' Party) in 1921.

In 1919 he joined the Deutsche Arbeiter Partei(DAP) to spy on its activities for the German Army. He was at the time its 55th member.

In an attempt to appeal to a broader portion of the population the party changed its name from Deutsche Arbeiter Partei to Nationalsozialistische deutsche Arbeiter Partei in February 1920. Initially, the party, under the leadership of Anton Drexler, had a genuine socialist agenda, but Hitler was also impressed with Drexler's anti-semitic, nationalist, anti-capitalist, anti-Marxist views. In July 1921 the party entered into an alliance with a group of socialists from Augsburg. Hitler was incensed at the idea and threatened to quit the party. Hitler then attempted to usurp the party leadership saying that he would only return if he were made its leader (Führer) with unlimited powers. The party initially held out, but Drexler knew that without Hilter's oratory skills the party was lost. Hitler's demands were put to a party vote which he won overwhelmingly with only one vote against.

On July 29, 1921, Adolf Hitler was for the first time,introduced as Führer of the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
