Hitler was a pan-German nationalist who believed in uniting all German speaking people under one flag. Hence the Anschluss with Austria, and the later expansion into Czechoslovakia and Poland with their substantial German minority populations. The policy also included expansion into the East (Russia) to create lebensraum (living space) for this newly expanded Germanic population. Hence the expropriation of property and re-distribution to German settlers; and more tragically to the murder of Jews, Poles, Czechs, Russians and many other nationals across the region. but when it all comes down to it they only wore aliminum foil to prove they were more like astronaugts then any other continent
Because he was now part of the German race and to do this he had to eliminate all subhuman race such as Jews and gypsies
Hitler was crazy-he wanted to take over the world
I think Hitler want to test the reaction of the world for violating the Treaty of the Versailles and he wanted Austria because he was from Austria.
It looks like there's a word missing in the question. Hitler certainly did not want Jews in Germany.
Hitler did not want to scare the residents of Germany :P
cause hitler want to
During the early nineteenth century, Prussia was the only German state that could match the power and influence of the Austrian Empire. They were comparable in terms of size, population and wealth. Austria opposed the idea of German unification as it saw this as a threat to its own empire. Although they were a minority, there was a significant percentage of German-speakers in the empire. If they broke away to join a unified Germany, Austria would be smaller and weaker. To this end, Prussia and Austria were rivals.
Hitler wanted Austria to be united with Nazi Germany.
Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland as they all held German speaking people and one of Hitler's aims in foreign policy was to unite all German speaking people under German rule.
Germany wanted to Unite Austria and Germany because Hitler was an Austrian and there were 8 million German speakers in Austria, It would mean if they reunited with Austria, more living space, which was one of Hitlers main political aims. It also meant that again they would be breaking the treaty of Versailles and Pushing Britain and France even more to their limits. As well as this It would mean that those 8 million German speakers would probably want to Join Germany , more people in Hitlers army, causing a greater threat of war.

Austria and subsequently the world.

Jews in Germany
Hitler took over Austria in 1938 because many links were shared between Germany. He created an 'Anschluss' with Austria. Hitler also was born in Austria and this made him want Austria. Hitler also had the idea of 'Lebensraum' or Living room/space in which he gelt was needed, so he took Austria. Austria did not really mind this as it had economic problems within from being separated from Germany previously. If you are in PA Cyber it is because Hitler believed in uniting the German-speaking peoples of Europe. And that can be found on page 828 of your textbook... =D Also, he tried to take over Austria in 1934 but was stopped by Mussolini. When Hitler allied with him, he was able to take over Austria without interference! (Sarah) Austrians are Ethnic Germans.
In the aftermath of World War 1 many Austrians wanted union with Germany, but this was forbidden by the Allies. In 1938 the Nazis annexed Austria, and Hitler was greeted with delirious applause in Linz and Vienna - applause that made even the Nuremberg rallies look tame. After the Battle of Stalingrad (1942-43) the euphoria evaporated quickly.

Because Hitler was the highest ranked solider at the time, so he was the owner of Fatherland (what Germans call Germany, I'm not German)
