What Policies is Adolf Hitler known for?

Answer 1

Adolf Hitler is most known for his racial policies. He believed that the "Aryan Race" is the superior race. Hitler also believed that the "Sub-Humans" should be compulsory sterilized and exterminated the Undesirables, Sub-Humans were non Aryan Germans. This included, Jews, Homosexuals, Romas(gypsies), ethnic poles and black People. Eventually, Hitler's policies led to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a major genocide which mainly took place between November 1938 - May 1945. This event was caused by Nazi Germany which murdered over 12 Million People, this included: 6.5 Million Jews, 3 Million Soviet POWs and 1.9 Million Ethnic Poles.

Another policy is regarding to the Treaty of Versailles. After the German Empire signed an unconditional surrender at the end of World War 1, the Treaty of Versailles was signed. the treaty included:

• Germany accepted the blame for causing World War 1
• The German army was restricted to 100,000 Soldiers and no Submarines or Tanks.
• Germany had to repay $31.4 Billion (at the time)/ $442 Billion in today's money
• Germany had to give up most of it lands to France, Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Denmark.

Adolf Hitler didn't like this and he thought the German Empire disgraced Germany. After the War, Hitler joined the German Workers Party and eventually, becomes the leader in just over a year after joining. He becomes leader because, Hitler believed that the Treaty of Versailles was uncalled for and Germany shouldn't accept the blame for it as Germany was only defending it ally the Austrian-Hungarian Empire (Fact). Eventually, when he become Chancellor of Germany in 1933 and then Fuhrer in 1934, Hitler broken several clauses of the Treaty of Versailles, such as:

• Invaded and Conquered the Rhineland.
• Increased Germany's Army and invented several tanks and other military vehicles.
• United with Austria and eventually to Czechoslovakia.
• Forbid Germany to repay the Allies
• Invaded Poland (Which caused World War 2)
