Chapter 21:World Wars I and II ( emphasis on Germany)

In 1936 the world was changing politically, and what rose was communism. Most countries were against the idea but those that were for it decided to form an alliance also known as the axis powers, which included,  Italy, Germany, and Japan. With communism sweeping through, a fascist government system was as well. Fascism is "a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism." At the time of all this, people were looking for the easy way out in seeing their governments and overall nations succeed. Communist leaders would brain wash the people as well as tell them lies about how great this system would be. In Italy for example the fascist leader Mussolini, fell in to this category. With Mussolini in control, Italy created a “corporate state” economy and viewed women as second class citizens. As the book referred, women were viewed as :easy access baby making factories. But Mussolini was no match for ADOLF HITLER. After the cold war in  Germany and WWI, Germany was ready for a big change. People made the people believe he was all they were hoping for in a leader. He made captivating speeches and brain washed the people of how good his ideas were. In my opinion Hitler was nothing more then a RACIST. He had a huge burning hatred for the Jewish people of Germany. He believed that the perfect human being was the Aryan race; blonde haired blue eyed people. Nonetheless Hitler had his wired crossed on his beliefs. He is well known for making a sweep through of killing most Jews in Europe. Hitler was not alone, he acted fast with the help of his army.. the Nazis. Millions of people suffered from the Holocaust or the slaughter of Jews in Germany. According to Hitler this is what God wanted and the people could only live in fear of what his plans were next.
