Adolf Eichmann

World War II (The Second World War) was arguably the most significant period in the 20th century, lasting from September 1st, 1939 until September 2nd, 1945. There were many factors that interconnected together before and after World War I had ended, which progressed into a development of World War II. These events include: the failure Treaty of Versailles with the resentment it caused, the failure of the League of nation and the outbreak of the Great World Depression. However, Germany and the…

comes from the 1930’s and 1940’s. In the mid 20th century, the Nazi party worked to make Germany a purebred country, and their efforts are the primary reason for Germanys homogeneous society. "The Program of the German Workers Party" was published by Adolf Hitler and the upcoming Nazi party that provided a list of suggestions for the country. These suggestions include, "Only members of the nation may be members of the State. Only those of German blood, whatever their creed, may be members of the…

When some imagine a world dominated by The National Socialist party of Germany, they imagine a horrible dystopian future split into three tripartite factions by the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis. In this imaginary world, all resistance to the Nazi regime has been quelled and replaced with Hitler 's Dystopia, where all non-aryans have been eradicated or enslaved and The Third Reich now reigns supreme. The reality of an Axis victory is far more complex. While this alternate fascist dominated world would…

Adolf Hitler once said, “Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it” (Hitler 172). This essential belief became the basis of the Nazi Party’s regime and rise to power. The size of the Nazi Party at its formation was infinitesimal in comparison to the powerhouse it grew into. Its surge to power was not a result of simply violence and hard-power utilization, but rather due to effective strategy and a great deal of luck. The economic and socio-political…

The Holocaust was one of the most horrific events in history. The Holocaust consisted of the torture and mass murder against the Jewish population. The Jews were transported to the railroad from the ghetto communities to then be deported to Nazi concentration camps. Jews were deported to the concentration camps to work as slave labor, to be tortured, and humiliated in a variety of ways. Over six million Jews died during the Holocaust and a great number of that six million died before arriving to…

Inhumanity: Then and Today What makes a human has been argued upon for unmeasurable amounts of time but there are some points commonly agreed upon. Of course humans are the sole species that have ability of speech (Choi para 10), but humans are the only animals that can express emotion through means such as laughing and crying (Burton para 3-4). Humans also are the only living creatures that can have beliefs and reasoning, which in a way helps explain the subject of the Holocaust. In World War…

Two Dictators – Two Roles In the 1900’s, Hitler and Mussolini had a huge impact on the world. Not only were they supreme leaders, but they also led their country in the World War II. Hitler and Mussolini were both strong leaders who have different accomplishments. The stock market crash in the United States in 1929 led to a depression that left millions of Germans without jobs. Unemployment rates were very high. More than 33% of the labor force was with a job in 1932. Banks in America began…

While reading the poem, one can perceive that Mrs. Plath is blossoming from a child into an adult. Symbolism plays a vital role in order to perceive her aging process. In the first stanza, it mentions a black shoe that she lives in. One can observe and compare this to the children’s nursery rhyme, “There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe”. Another example of her childhood within stanza one is in line five when she says, “Achoo”. Most adults would say sneeze, but to a child, it is acceptable…

The treatment of European Jews by Nazi Germany, during the Second World War, was appalling. They were faced with horrific circumstances and inevitable fates. They were stripped of their basic human rights without explanation or justification. Jews were dehumanised and treated as if they were a threat to Germany and if they were not disposed of, their supposedly evil and nefarious nature would lead to the destruction of Germany, itself. This is one of the worst atrocities that history has to…

Adolf Hitler was once quoted as saying, “How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don’t think” (BrainyQuote). Hitler and his top administrators relied on this presumed ignorance in their execution of the “Final Solution,” the systematic extermination of Europe’s Jews. At the Wannsee Conference in 1942, high-ranking Nazi Party and government officials met to discuss the coordination and implementation of the “Final Solution” (“Wannsee Conference”). It was through the…
