Why did people put their faith in totalitarian dictators who propelled their nations into war?

In Germany at the time the economy was in shambles and people where on real hard times. Hitler promised a better life for Germany. In the early stages of his power Hitler was viewed as a hero for turning the country around and believe it or not was envied by other leaders. It has been argued that if Hitler didn't go off the deep end he would have been held in high regard. That all went out the window when war started. People in Germany stilled believed in him but of course he lost much of his shine after invading Poland. Remarkably the world really took a blind eye to his treatment of the Jews up to this point. Once he had a shipped filled with deported Jews and watched as country after country refused their entry. This only reinforced his notion that Jews must go and shortly afterward the persecution of the Jews became harsher.

How important was the use of violence in making Hitler dictator in 1934?

Personally, I think that the violence between 1933 and 1934 was very important as it showed Hitler that violence wouldn't work and that he'd have to use a different approach. The violence, such as the Munich Putsch, showed Hitler that other methods would have to be used. As a result of the Munich Putsch, 16 Nazis were killed and Hitler was sent to prison. Obviously, this sent a pretty clear message that violence wasn't going to work. In prison, Hitler had valuable thinking time where he wrote 'Mein Kampf' and, as shown in source B, this caused Hitler to change his methods which lead to him gaining support and eventually becoming dictator.

Was Hitler personally significant in the Nazi party's rise to power or could any dictator have taken control?

Adolf Hitler was the leader in the rise of the Nazi party. Adolf Hitler has a distinct personality to bring harm to people and to perpetuate hatred. If there was another person during that time that had that same lust for power and desire to hurt people then someone other than Hitler could have lead that regime.

Do you believe a dictator could take over the United States?

Probably not, first of all because of the position and power of the US government it is very unlikely that a dictator could take over. Putting aside the even more unlikely case of an external invasion, the US government is designed in such a way as to make it very difficult for this to happen. Even if it did, the people of the United States are educated in such a way as to value democracy and freedom as such important concepts for their country that a dictatorship likely would not last if it were to be instated at any point.

Advantages of having a good dictator?

Read the story of Francisco Franco, dictator of Spain. See if you think he was beneficial to their nation. The only advantage I have ever seen about a country having a dictator is that the people know whose boss and they know what to expect. But, is not much of an advantage if you ask me. Most dictators historically have been positively awful.
