Mostly because of the repression of the Treaty of Versailles. This treaty made Germany pay the Allies 132 billion marks. Before 1921 it was 226 billion marks, but it was impossible for Germany to pay that off. This led to inflation, and then the fall of the German economy. Also, much of Germany was taken, and the Danzig was occupied by Poland, creating a barrier between Germany and East Prussia. Germany's military was restricted, and many vehicles and guns were not allowed. The Germans could only recruit 100,000 troops and an air force was disallowed.

All of these led to the anger and frustration of Germany, and Hitler had promised to revive the economy and German to the former greatness. The people believed him and voted him the chancellor of Germany in 1933.
