Which is more important in enabling the Nazis to influence young people in Germany?
I hope there are not still Nazis trying to influence young people in Germany. Germany negotiated a "concordant" with the Catholic Church and in the agreement, the Catholic Church agreed to disband the Catholic Political party and the Catholic Youth organization. This allow for the rise of the Nazi Party and the Hitler Youth.
What allied power reached Berlin first?
On the ground, the Soviet Union. The Western Allies allowed this because the city fell into the Soviet demarcation zone for postwar Germany, stopping their armies on the Elbe instead of racing the Red Army to Berlin. The Soviets entered Berlin on April 23, 1945, and conquered the city by May 2nd.

Who was the British general at El Alamein?
-- Answer --
Bernard Montgomery, known as 'Monty'
Phil
The first battle of El Alamein was commanded by General Sir Claude Aukinlech. The Auk was a very good soldier and was respected by his troops for his no-nonesese, no-thrills lifestyle during campaign but he was dreadfull at picking good subordinates and when he took command in the field himself his plans were complicated and confusing and lead to people not understanding what they were supposed to be doing. He stopped Rommel at the El Alamein line but by then Chuchill had lost all confidence in him and he was replaced as Theater Commander by Harold Alexander and as Army commander by Bernard Montgomery.
General Bernard Law Montgomery (later Field Marshal Sir Bernard Montgomery - 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein) commanded the 8th Army at the battle of Alam Halfa and the second battle of El Alamein. Monty was the most professional soldier in the British Army and had clear and precise ideas and theories on how and army should be run and how the soldiers should be treated and how campaigns should be fought. Simplicity was the key in orders, playing to the strengths of his own side was another and morale building and maintaining was essential. What annoyed people about Bernard Montgomery was his clarity of thought and uncompromising nature and, even more, his occaisonal tactlessness. He stopped Rommel's last attack in the desert at Alam Halfa, decisively defeated Rommel again at Second El Alamein and successfully crossed the desert to beat Rommel once more at Medinine and then beat the Afrika Korp, without Rommel, once again at the Mareth Line. In doing this Montgomery became the single most successful Desert Commander of World War 2.

Why did Hitler and his nazi party like the Great Depression?
In 1928, before the Great Depression, the Nazis did disastously in the general election, and Hitler was widely regarded as a grotesque, wildly gesticulating, screaming and shouting, funny little man. The Great Depression brought widespread unemployment and hardship, and many Germans were willing, even keen, to give 'alternative parties' a chance.

Additional:
Or a theist, or (like me) a panentheist...
Who was the German executor of the Jews?
The main organisation involved in mass murder of Jews and others that the National Socialists wanted to annihilate, was the SS (Schutzstaffeln), and they managed the death camps with help of Kapos e.g.
Their leader was Heinrich Himmler, thus directly responsible under Hitler himself.
He had appointed Reinhard Heydrich to lead the execution of the "final solution", according to a plan he presented at the Wannsee conference 1942.
Where did hitler's hatred for jews start?
No, we have been hated since the beginning of time.
_____________
There is nothing to be gained by exaggerating, and much to be lost. The 'we've-always-been-so-hated' view expressed by some Jews, though understandable, is very bitter and suggests that the Jews are a people living in some sense under a curse.
Having said that, I would date the demonization of the Jews from the First Crusade (1096) and it is fair to say that it has been remarkably persistent. However, there have also been periods of tolerance - for example, in the 17th-19th centuries and again in the 20th century. There have also been enormous variations from country to country.
Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.

Germany owns Rolls Royce
Rolls-Royce Limited was a British car, and from 1914, aero-engine manufacturing company founded by Charles Stewart Rolls and Henry Royce on 15 March 1906 as the result of a partnership formed in 1904. In 1971, Rolls-Royce was crippled by the development of the advanced RB211 jet engine, resulting in the nationalisation of the company as Rolls-Royce (1972) Limited. In 1973, the car division was separated from the parent company as Rolls-Royce Motors. Rolls-Royce (1972) Limited continued as a nationalised company until it was privatised in 1987 as Rolls-Royce plc.

Hitler was a deist who subscribed to a racist interpretation of philosophic/occult ideas proposed by Theosophy and the Thule Society. He believed that Germany was the last bastion of racially pure "Aryans" who he (mistakenly) believed to be blue eyed and blond haired and possessing supernatural powers, and that by eliminating the "pollutants" (by preventing the reproduction of the handicapped or "inferior" races) that they could bring back the Aryan race and dominate the world.

From approximately 1933 into early 1945, Nazi Germany was governed by a "totalitarian" nationalism which caused the deaths of millions of innocent people, especially through the ravages of World War II. The "totalitarian" government of Germany wielded "total" control over the country, tolerating no political competition and demanding of all Germans the will to sacrifice themselves for the sake of Germany's expansion through Europe.
YES Adolf Hitler was born on April 20th 1889 in a small Austrian town called Braunau, near to the German border.
His father - Alois - was fifty-one when Hitler was born. He was short-tempered, strict and brutal. It is known that he frequently hit the young Hitler. Alois had an elder son from a previous marriage but he had ended up in jail for theft. Alois was determined that Hitler was not going to go down the same round - hence his brutal approach to bringing up Hitler. Some believe that the background of Alois was a potential source of embarrassment for the future leader of Nazi Germany, though experts on Hitler's background disagree with what Hans Frank wrote.
**Adolf Hitler was an Austrian BORN German.
Was the Nazi-Soviet Pact successful?
On August 23, 1939, four days after the economic agreement was signed and a little over a week before the beginning of World War II, Ribbentrop and Molotov signed the Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact. (The pact is also referred to as the German-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact and the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact.) Publicly, this agreement stated that the two countries -- Germany and the Soviet Union -- would not attack each other. If there were ever a problem between the two countries, it was to be handled amicably. The pact was supposed to last for ten years; it lasted for less than two. What was meant by the terms of the pact was that if Germany attacked Poland, then the Soviet Union would not come to its aid. Thus, if Germany went to war against the West (especially France and Great Britain) over Poland, the Soviets were guaranteeing that they would not enter the war; thus not open a second front for Germany. In addition to this agreement, Ribbentrop and Molotov added a secret protocol onto the pact -- a secret addendum whose existence was denied by the Soviets until 1989
What are the four countries name that took over Germany?
France, England, Britain, and Russia took over Germany after World War 2.
