The Other Side of the Dictator Hitler

When people mention Adolf Hitler, the architect of fascism, many despise him deeply because his rise to power led to World War II and the deaths of millions.

Because of this, Hitler is viewed unforgivably by the world.

However, it’s worth noting that in less than three years after taking office, Hitler brought Germany out of the economic hardship and decline following World War I, even achieving wealth for the nation. But how exactly did he manage this?

1. Economic Hardships Faced by Germany After World War I

On November 11, 1918, Germany, the instigator of World War I, was forced to surrender to the Allied powers, marking the end of the four-year-long conflict.

Following the war, the victorious nations were not inclined to forgive Germany’s misdeeds, thus they collectively demanded that Germany and other defeated nations sign the Treaty of Versailles.

Since I was young, I have always enjoyed reading biographies of historical figures, especially those about World War II, including documentaries and novels.
