This source has his whole life broken down so I can site specific events that may have led him to become the killer he was. It would be interesting to see how his life would have been different if he had gotten into the Fine Art school he applied to twice.

The Holocaust encyclopedia has many facts on the event and a lot of stats such as number of deaths in different populations. The SS and German police murdered thousands on the streets in front of their house. Husband's were telling the police on their wives and police would kill anyone suspected to be a traitor on the spot.

Hitler's ability to manipulate the crowd is one of the main reasons his reign lasted as long as it did. He did not have as big of an army as he said but people respected him so highly they would not question him.

Hitler did not get voted chancellor right away. He gained his power through his powerful speeches and gaining support from thousands. Hitler never had the majority vote but because he had so much support he was appointed chancellor to stop the chaos and deadlocks that was going on in Germany.

Hitler aligned himself with Japan and Italy to make up the Axis power. The three countries together dominated Europe and was pretty close to controlling over half the world.
