The German Empire: The Rise & Destruction of the Third Reich

  • Published 7 years ago

The world needs and deserves to see everything: the good, the bad, and the ugly. That being said, most people associate the Third Reich and Hitler with some of the most horrifying events in the history of mankind.

German people, educated, musical clean and tidy people, were involved in one of the worst periods of human history.

In order to understand the Third Reich, Nazi and Hitler, one must know what happened before, and what preceded the Third Reich.

Germany was one of the richest countries in Europe. However, due to the loss in the First World War, the country was in a huge economic crisis and recession. What Hitler essentially managed to do is provide hard-working people in the country with jobs in the military section. If the leader stopped there, we wouldn’t be talking about the Third Reich as something horrifying.

However, Hitler abused and exploited the weakness of the people and the situation they were in, and managed to use the economic crisis in his advantage.

Take a look at life in Germany before, during and after the Third Reich.
