Hitler took control of Anschluss, the annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany, through a combination of political pressure and military intimidation. In early 1938, he leveraged Austria's economic struggles and the popularity of the Nazi party among some Austrians to push for unification. On March 12, 1938, German troops marched into Austria without facing significant resistance, and the annexation was formalized through a rigged referendum later that year, which falsely claimed overwhelming support for the union. This move was a key step in Hitler's expansionist agenda leading up to World War II.
