About Me
Hi I am Adolf Hitler, I was born in Braunau, Austria on April 20, 1889. My parents were Alois Schlicklgruber (later Hitler) and Klara Poetzl. I was one of six children, however, my three brothers and one sister died at very young ages due to diseases. I have a sister named Paula who survived me. I went to primary school and was very popular with the other students and was admired for my leadership skills. In secondary school I lost popularity with my fellow students and because the competition was much harder I stopped trying. All I wanted to do was re-enact the battle of the Boer war with younger students. When I was 15, I failed my exams and was told to repeat the year. Instead of repeating the year I quit school altogether. When I was 18,I moved to Vienna to pursue a career in Art. I was rejected from two Art Schools, so I became interested in politics.

I became particularly impressed with anti-Semitic, nationalist, Christian-Socialist party. During WWI. I fought for the German army and reached the rank of corporal. After Germany surrendered I became very depressed and my future seamed uncertain. Following WWI, I found that I agreed with Anton Drexler's German Nationalism and anti-Semitism, however, I disagreed with how they were organised leading me to make passionate speeches. My Speeches caused many people to join the party which in 1921 was renamed National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazi). I became the leader of this party. My(Hitler's) popularity continued to grow after WWI. In November 1923, I was sent to prison for treason following a failed attempt to force the Bavarian Government to march with the Nazi's on Berlin. While in prison i wrote 'Mein Kampf', formulating political Ideas. I reorganized my party upon myrelease from jail.Upon the onset of the world depression I began to attract significant followers.

In January 1933, I (Hitler) was appointed chancellor of Germany by President Hindenburg. Hindenburg died in 1934 which put Adolf Hitler in charge. In 1936 the Hitler led Germany invaded Rhineland, then annexed parts of Austria and Czechoslovakia. On September 1, 1939 I invaded Poland, which started WWII. Following several years of success, in 1941 Germany invaded Russia, which became my (Hitler's) biggest mistake. during the remaining war Germany was retreating on both the east and western fronts. in 1944 there was an assassination attempt on Hilter which failed. on April 30, 1945 Adolf Hitler committed suicide and Germany quickly surrendered to end the war.

 * Wall Post #1: The attack against the U.S.S.R. was launched on June 22, 1941. The German army advanced swiftly into the Soviet Union, corralling almost three million Russian prisoners, but it failed to destroy its Russian opponent. Hitler became overbearing in his relations with his generals. He disagreed with them about the object of the main attack, and he wasted time and strength by failing to concentrate on a single objective. In December 1941, a few miles before Moscow, a Russian counteroffensive finally made it clear that Hitler’s hopes of a single campaign could not be realized.

> On April 30 he said farewell to Goebbels and the few others remaining, then retired to his suite and shot himself. His wife took poison. In accordance with his instructions, their bodies were burned.
 * Wall Post #2:After January 1945 Hitler never left the Chancellery in Berlin or its bunker, abandoning a plan to lead a final resistance in the south as the Soviet forces closed in on Berlin. In a state of extreme nervous exhaustion, he at last accepted the inevitability of defeat and thereupon prepared to take his own life, leaving to its fate the country over which he had taken absolute command. Before this, two further acts remained. At midnight on April 28–29 he married [|Eva Braun] . Immediately afterward he dictated his political testament, justifying his career and appointing Admiral [|Karl Dönitz] as head of the state and Josef Goebbels as chancellor.


 * Wall Post #3:Hitler  joined the German Workers’ Party, a precursor of the Nazi Party, in 1919. He then progressed to become the leader of the NSDAP in 1921. In 1923 he attempted a coup d’état, (known as the Beer Hall Putsch) in Munich. This failed event led to his capture and eventual imprisonment. Upon his release in 1924, [|Adolf Hitler]  began to gain support by actively promoting Pan-Germanism, antisemitism and anticommunism in Germany via the use of Nazi propaganda and what some believed to be ‘charismatic’ speeches.


 * Wall Post #4:In 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed as chancellor and at this time he began to transform the Weimar Republic into the Third Reich; since defined as a single-party dictatorship based on the ideology of Nazism. He vowed to establish a brand new order of absolute Nazi Germany to spread throughout continental Europe. Many of Hitler’s foreign and domestic policies had the intention of seizing living space (Lebensraum) for the Germanic people. Embarking on an invasion of Poland in September 1939, the actions of Hitler and his party triggered the outbreak of [|World War 2]  in Europe.
