Germany in WW2

The government determined prices, wages, and products.

The main thing was nationalism. They weren't loyal to him but rather to the nation. After being humiliated by the Treaty of Versailles the German people were bitter. They had pride as a nation and did not like how low they had fallen. Because of this they were loyal to the nation, in order to bring back respect for the Germans.

He was baptized and raised a Roman Catholic. Later, he turned to old Germanic paganism.

He launched an invasion (codenamed Operation Barbarossa) into the Soviet Union. Many historians suggest that it was the largest mistake Hitler had made - he dedicated too many supplies and troops to Operation Barbarossa when he could've used that same man power to invade Great Britain (which would've given him a stronger foothold in the Atlantic).

The Nazi's reduced unemployment from five million to zero in a few years. Although it would appear miraculous this was not the case. The German army reintroduced military service which meant instead of having young men unemployed they were in the army. The Nazis also put pressure on employers to not employ Women. As women were to stay at home and look after the children. This meant women were not counted in the figures for unemployment thus lowering it. All unemployed were forced into any vacant job. If they refused to work then they were labelled "work shy" and risked imprisonment. Jews were denied German citizenship so technically were no longer unemployed as they weren't German.

German companies were given money if they employed as many people as possible. Instead of using a digger they would employ five men with shovels or even maybe fifteen people with spoons. This reduced unemployment but decreased wages.

German war industry drastically decreased unemployment. The guns were made to arm the new conscripted force. This provided jobs for many German workers. Many Autobahns and other building projects such as football stadiums or planting new forests. The Nazis set up many events which provided jobs such as cruises, concerts and weekend trips. All served to lower unemployment.

Germany reduced the extent to which she was dependant on imports. This would increase the demand for products that Germany produced. Instead of Germans buying white bread from Poland they would instead buy black bread from German farmers. This increased the demand for black bread which meant there had to be more German farmers growing the black bread.

Germans felt as if their economy was recovering. Unemployment had fallen dramatically and new building projects such as the Autobahns boosted German moral. The truth was the real value of the currency had fallen.

Although it would seem that Germany is better off. The fact is that the German economy was overheating. If it had not been for the outbreak of war then Germany would have experienced another inflation crisis.

There was no economic miracle in Germany only the drastic reduction in unemployment. The quality of life for the German population fell and although unemployment was eliminated many who were still unemployed were not counted in the statistics.

They were Allies. But nearing the end when the Italians wanted to kick Mussolini out of power, Hitler sent in German troops to take control. He didn't want to lose the country, so he sent in his soldiers temporarily to fight the Allies and make sure Italy stayed its ally. But he didn't invade it in the way that he invaded other countries such as France.

Germany's air force was far larger and better than Britain's. Before the battle of Britain Hitler bombed the airfields trying to destroy the RAF. He then turned his attention to all the major cities and industrial areas and so gave the RAF a chance to reagin power. we had very few pilots and so many polish, Czech and french pilots flew for us. we had the hurricane and the spitfire, wheras the Germans had the mesherschmitt 109. But Herman Goering (leader of Germany's air force) wanted the fighters to stay close to the bombers and so they lost the advantage of speed and surprise. The british managed to repel the attack and so a turning point in the war came about.

Any more help?

68 American civilians were killed during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Other civilian casualty numbers are estimates. Axis countries - Germany - 2,350,000, Italy - 60,000, and Japan - 393,400. Five major allied powers France - 470,000, Britain - 60,600, Russia - 6,700,000, and China - 8,000,000.Other countries were involved but these are the primary forces involved. The numbers are from a textbook I was using a few years ago as well.

The Natzis simply tortured and killed the jews.THey were sent to concentraton camps where they had to work all day and at the endof the day, for instance, a nazi officer gather them and simply shoots a group of them, and the next day the same procdure continues.Jews were looked upon as the "stabbers" in WWI, therefore a kind of hate has grown towards them from the germans.

Which camps? England invented concentration camps in, I think, the Crimean War, the US unlawfully used them to control citizens of Japanese, Italian, and German backgrounds, and of course the Nazis used them in WW II, and the Japanese also in WW II.

The German Bundesland Bavaria has the largest area of 70 549 km2. The German Bundesland North Rhine Westphalia has the largest population of 18 075 000 persons.

The Nazi's borrowed the swastika from eastern religions such ad Budhism. It wasn't created so much as it was adopted. I don't know the exact time period but i would say it was in the early 1930s.

Absolutism cut down the rights of the people by adding new taxes and forcing peasants to become land-locked serfs. Absolutism created riots and revolts led by the angry peasants who simply wanted to live their normal lives without government interference.

20 April 1889

The letter "A" after the five-digit serial # means that it is a .380 caliber made in France betwee 1954 and 1985. The numbers assigned to the French Co. (Manurhin) were 12003A-78148A. You should be able to place your pistol in this range and determine the approximate date of manufacture.

Probably. Hitler's rise to power was a symptom of the economic condition in which the allies left Germany after World War I. The German people were desperate for someone or something to address rampant unemployment and inflation and Hitler promised to do so. If he hadn't come along, somebody else like him probably would have.

March 12, 1938, it was called the 'Anschluss'.

Germany didn't invade Britain. They intended to, but were unable to gain air superiority so they cancelled their invasion plans.

It is not clear whether you are looking for the word - which is Holocaust, or whether this is a 'please-tell-me-all-about' question, or both.

because they can not protect them selves and often get raided for there homes and goods. While I served In the U.S special services we often saw house which had been raided for food and water.
