Since the formal conclusion to World War II, debates and discussions have raged over when the Western nations should have attempted to stop Hitler by force before 1939. A general (if not unanimous) consensus points to 1936 and 1938 as the key opportunities missed by Hitler's opponents: in both years, Germany's military was much too weak to stand up to any serious threat by a combined force; in both years, a concerted effort to intervene would have dealt Hitler a serious, perhaps even fatal, blow.

Why were the Nazis and Hitler not successful up to 1928?

The Nazis had little success before 1930 because the country didn't have the same desperate economic need for change as it did later on. Hitler failed to seize control in the Munich Putsch. Hitler had attempted to overthrow the government and thought that if he attempted to gain power, the German people would rise up and support him, but this was unsuccessful. The Nazis were not very well known, and they were trying to force their way into power. They had a bit of a reputation for violence that turned the average middle class voter away. It wasn't until they gained Hitler as a spokesperson in the 1930s that the party started to gain momentum.


After Hitler took control of France how did he hope to force Great Britain's surrender?
