President Hindenburg offered Chancellorship to Hitler who formed his first Nazi government on January 30, 1933.

In 1923, Hitler planned to seize control of Bavaria, march to Berlin and capture power. He failed, was arrested, tried for treason, and later released. 

 Nazis never used the words ‘kill’ or ‘murder’ in their official communications. Mass killings were termed special treatment, final solution (for the Jews), euthanasia (for the disabled), selection and disinfections. ‘Evacuation’ meant deporting people to gas chambers. 

Germany signed a Non-Aggression Pact with Russia in August 1939, Poland was accused of committing atrocities against Germans living there.

On 30 January 1933, President Hindenburg offered the Chancellorship, the highest position in the cabinet of ministers, to Hitler.

On January 30, 1933, President Hindenburg offered the Chancellorship, the highest position in the cabinet of minister, to Hitler. By now the Nazis had managed to rally the conservatives to their cause.

Only Nordic Ayrans' were considered as desirable. Germans who were seen as abnormal or impure were considered undesirables. Jews, Gypsies, and blacks living in Nazi Germany were considered as racial inferiors. Russians and Poles were also considered as subhuman.

Socialists, Catholics, and Democrats were the supporters of newly formed Weimar Republic. These supporters were also called 'November Criminals'. They all became easy targets of attack in the conservative nationalist circles.
