NAZI TIMELINE
Party Platform
Rise of the Nazi Party
The new party platform was meant to show more nationalism and socialism all in one. The party believed that the Nazi universe of obligation states that only those with German blood and who are citizens of the state may be members and that no Jews can become members. Non-citizens can live in the state but would be treated like aliens. The part of the document that seems the most reasonable is that all citizens shall have equal rights and duties. The part of the document that might have been the most popular was that they demand land and territory to feed their people and to settle their own supplies.
Elements of Hitler’s biography and personality that were attractive to people in Wiemar
Germany
What attracted Hitler to the Germans was that he was always there for them. He put his heart into WWI to defend and fight for the Germans. He was always speaking to them as a soldier who had been a part of the working class and was a working man. He was able to relate to them or at least make it seem like he did.

Supporting the Political Party's Beliefs
Supporting Political Party's Beliefs
I disagree with that because when you support someone it doesn't mean that you agree with all the party’s beliefs. Someone might support even if he or she is uncomfortable with some of the proposals because of the leader and they agree with some of the proposals, not all of them that is why they supported.
Hitler's Youth Group
Explain the development of the Hitler youth program and explain what Hitler meant behind his statement “Whoever has the youth has the future.”
What Hitler meant by saying "Whoever has the youth has the future" is that by training the younger population then they would be able to teach them from a young age what it meant to be a Nazi soldier. The youth were trained to obey their authority figures and taught to follow the Nazi principals and philosophies. The Nazis wanted to prepare the youth so that once they reached the age to become soldiers, they would be ready and since Hitler had big plans to be the ruler he wanted the children to follow his steps. The youth program was created to shape the mind of the children/youth and shape them to follow Nazi's ideologies and prepare them for the future.
Hitler's Youth Group
How do the Nazi youth organizations and their symbols connect with the idea of a
“national community”? How do they connect with the vision of a nation ready for battle?
Nazi Youth Organization
Nazi youth organizations and their symbols connect with the idea of "national community" because the Nazis want to manipulate these kids to act like them and practically be them because these kids are the future of Germany. The Nazi's believed that since the kids were young, 6 years old, then they would be able to adapt their way of thinking and teach them how to act like them so that when they are older they can take their spot in the war.
When is it appealing to join a group? Why might some young people have joined even if they didn't fully agree with Nazi policies?
Join the Youth group
It is appealing to join a group at a young age, for example 6 years old, because at that time it is exciting to be a part of something that everyone else is a part of. Many young children were not even forced to join the groups. In fact, they were so eager to join because by they wanted to feel the sense of belonging and the importance that they would feel as members of the groups.

Explain the development of the Jewish Ghettos and explain why the Nazis separated and kept the camps a secret from the rest of the world.
When Germany was controlling Poland and all the Jews their. They were forced to move into Ghettos that were specific areas for them. The Nazis separated the Jews so they wouldn't interact with normal people like the Germans and they kept it a secret so other countries wouldn't come to help the Jews.
Jews in the Ghetto
What was the purpose of isolating Jews in ghettos? In what ways did the Nazi policy build on examples of societies confining people in ghettos from earlier in history? In what ways was it different?
Isolating the Jews in the Ghetto
The purpose of isolating the Jews in ghettos was to separate them from the rest of the world and they could not communicate with other people that were not jews. The Ghetto was created by the Nazis but was not the first one , it originates from Venice Italy, where Jews homes and business were confined to a designated area. It was different because the people were not treated like animals, they were treated like normal people before the Nazis.
What was the impact of isolating Jews in ghettos?
The impact of isolating the Jews in the ghettos was that they suffered from anxiety about concentration camps and the struggle to find food was part of their daily life. The anonymous girl said that “Life is terrible, living conditions are abominable and there is no food”. That tells me that the life they were living was horrible; they had small portions of food. There is no medicine to help them. The leg of the little girl is frostbitten and there's nothing they can do.
The Impact in Isolating the Jews
What do the anonymous girl’s diary entries suggest about the writing?
The entry of the anonymous girl suggested that there is an effect on purpose and power when you write because people in the future are going to find her diary and understand what this girl went through and the suffering she went through. That is why her writing is so important so we make sure it doesn't happen again.

Explain the development of the “New Germany” on the Olympic stage. Make sure to explain why you think Hitler wanted the Olympics to be in Germany in 1936.
The New Germany
When the Olympics came the Nazis decided that they would take every sign about the Jews because everyone was watching. Hitler wanted to show the New Germany to other countries. I think that the reason Hitler wanted the Olympics to be in Germany was because he wanted to show how powerful Germany was becoming and he wanted to show all the things that he did so Germany would become better, but what stood out was the racism and communist that was being created at that time.
Why do you think the Nazis removed some signs during the Olympics? What does that imply about their concern for public opinion? Why would Germany have been sensitive to how other countries felt about their treatment of Jews?
The Nazis removed the signs that said “No Jews Allowed” to prevent criticism from foreigners. That implies that if other countries find out what Germany is doing to the Jews, other countries would like to help the Jews and they would get into a fight and Germany doesn't want that. They feel sensitive to other countries about the Jews because they knew that the treatment of the Jews would bring them problems with other countries that is why they took it down.

How did the Lindbergh respond to what they saw in Germany? What was visible to them? What was not visible?
Anne Lindbergh responded to what she saw by writing a letter to her mother. What was visible to her was the power, unity, and purposefulness of Germany and she was so thrilled when she saw the energy, pride, and morals of the people, especially young people. What was not visible to them and what the Germans tried to hide was the way they treated the Jews they did not want the people to find out.
Lindbergh
respond to what she saw in Germany.
There were debates in some countries—including the United States, Great Britain, France, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, and Denmark—about possibly boycotting the Olympics, but in the end all of those countries sent teams. By 1936, Nazi ideology and racial policy were clear to the world. Based on that fact, do you think these countries should have boycotted the games? What difference might that have made?
Possible Boycotting in the Olympics
I think that these counties should have boycotted the games when they started having doubts about the Germans because the difference that would have made was that they could have saved the Jews earlier and that they don’t approve of the way they were treating the Jews.

In what ways did Hitler break the Treaty of Versailles? What might you expect the consequences to be? What were the actual consequences?
Hitler broke the Treaty of Versailles by rebuilding Germany's military, the air forces, the draft and the rearm. He didn't want to say anything because he knew this was going to be a violation to the Treaty and he reassured the other countries that it wasn't a violation, it was just for defense. I expected the consequences to be that there would be a war or a fight because of what Hitler did to the Treaty. The actual consequences were nothing because Hitler got away with it and everybody acted like nothing happened.
Treaty of Versailles
How did Germans respond to Hitler’s plans for rearmament and re- militarization? Why would business people be particularly pleased?

Why were so many European leaders reluctant to challenge Hitler’s actions to rebuild Germany’s military and occupy the Rhineland?
There were so many European leaders reluctant to challenge Hitler’s action because they wanted to own the Rhineland that now was part of Germany and they were mad about Hitler breaking the Treaty of Versailles.

Explain why do you think the young people who questioned Nazism formed their own groups? Describe
why Nazi officials believe these groups were dangerous?
I think that the young people who question the Nazism formed their own group because they did not agree on what the Hitler Youth activity was doing by focusing on leisure activity and more on military drills and preparation for the war. That people that did not agree created their own group that could freely express their own interests and ideas. The Nazi officials believe that these groups were dangerous because they were going against what was right for the Nazis. The Nazis felt attacked at the heart of its concept of itself and state.
Rejection of Nazism
Explain how listening and performing music be a form a rebellion by those younger groups who rejected Nazism? How can dancing be a form of rebellion?
Listening or performing music can be a form of rebellion because of their acceptance of the Jews and other outsiders. Dancing can be a form of rebellion because none of the couples danced normally, there was a swing of the worst and they accepted the Jews and other people.
Listening or performing music can form rebellion
Why did Nazi officials believe these groups were dangerous?
The Nazi officials believe that these groups were dangerous because they were no following the rules of the Nazis. They were creative their own rules to follow and that would be a treat for the Nazis and they were worried that they would create a fight.
Youth groups were dangerous
