so in this video we're gonna have a look at the rise of the Nazi Party in the 1930s I'm gonna start by just having a little look at the sort of history of the NSDAP and history of Adolf Hitler's relationship with the NSDAP so in 1920 Hitler announced a 25-point program which was the idea is a mix of nationalism and socialism now what's important here is the myth that the Nazi NSDAP were actually left-wing because of the phrase socialism what you need to remember is that that socialism doesn't mean the same thing as it does today and as it even if it even it did mean the same thing back in the 1930s but Hitler didn't mean it in the same way he just meant it as a sort of workers Workers Party and they're sort of People's Party which you could suggest because it's particularly vague you could suggest with socialism however the Nazi Party was a lot more nationalist okay it's strove for this idea of a people's community a vote of volker mineshaft okay and collectively it was a very extreme right party the original German Workers Party now became the National Socialist German Workers Party or the NSDAP National Socialist German Workers Party okay in 1921 Hitler became the party leader and by 1923 the NSDAP had become the largest far-right group in Bavaria okay so we're seeing we're seeing an increase in power okay over here now Hitler's ideology itself is pretty self-explanatory okay it's luckily one of the main things we know about Adolf Hitler is that he was very very very extremist so his views were by no means new in any way and they had their own brutalist kind of logic behind them okay so so far right extremism far-right extremism did exist in Europe did exist in Europe before and more importantly anti-semitism was hugely popular in Europe so anti-semitism anti-semitism was also popular so so by no means was Hitler's views like new so he suggested that life was a struggle and the only strongest races and nations could survive this leads to the idea that some races are inferior to others it's almost like a hierarchy of racism okay and the races so the loss of the first world war intensified extremism intensified extremism Hitler blamed the Jews for the ills and woes of the of the world okay and created this Jewish conspiracy in his book Mein Kampf which he wrote whilst he was in prison so he wrote this in prison you wrote in prison bear in mind in prison after the Munich push by the way so Hitler sought to expand East and create leoben's ROM or living space for german-speaking citizens and the Aryan race so Hitler's plans that sort of came to fruition in World War two the expanding eastwards into Russia the elimination of Jews in Europe and also the the superiority of NASA's omocha communism seemed to all be part of mine camp but what it seemed was no one in the West or in the East bothered to read my camp and so somehow came as a surprise to everyone when he invaded Eastern Europe and when he tried to eliminate the Jews from Europe itself so what really is the outlines that this is what he likes to think of as the Nazi manifesto the sort of Nazi manifesto and I think it should also be said that mine camp is actually really is really badly written it's it's it's not very good at all and it's really boring so if you have a few if you remember want to read it don't so between 1923 and 1928 we start to see a development in the Nazi Party okay so this is just before the Great Depression and the Wall Street Crash which happened Wall Street Street crash happened in October 1929 so October 1929 so him as attempt to seize power in 1923 had failed this was all the Munich push this was the Munich push that we've talked about before in a very early video and then we have he was tried for treason and sentenced to five years this is where he wrote his book and in out of those five years he only served a year and was released in December 1924 between no 225 and 926 he reestablished his own control over the Nazi Party but by 1928 the Nazi Party was still a very small minority okay two point six percent of the vote and this is mainly because of the Golden Age the Golden Age it's very hard for extremist parties to to gain support during a golden age in a country's history or just a period of time of economic development as social development because one of the main points of an extremist party and an extremist ideology is that something is wrong and it needs fixing for the Nazis and the Communists in Germany this was the Wall Street crashed the Great Depression okay and now it's in 1929 that was what was wrong with Germany and so that the government needs to be overthrown and changed and this new system needs to be implemented that's how extremist parties gained support this is also true of where at the end of the First World War there was a lot of support for extremist parties then because the Treaty of Versailles was seen as this thing that was wrong and that needed fixing and so they the extremist parties got support from here but during 24 to 28 there was economic developments there were social developments cultural developments international developments as a result no one really saw the need for an extremist party to overthrow the government as a resort only 2.6 percent of people voted for the Nazis however by the end of 1929 by October 1929 the NSDAP won between 10 and 20 percent of the vote and in September 1930 they won a hundred and seven seas which is 18 percent of the vote becoming the second largest party the second largest party largest party and therefore we see very clearly the 1929 and the Wall Street Crash really did spark this need for extremism and the Nazi Party began to rise in popularity and in just one year going from 2.6 percent of the vote to the Wall Street Crash 2 then a year later 107 seas is pretty staggering and a pretty impressive rate for the Nazi Party and therefore we start to see the the fall of them are even more
