The second part of the 2011 war documentary Apocalypse: The Rise of Hitler we take a look at when Hilter actually became "The Fuhrer".
As German economy fell apart in the early 1930's, the Nazi part surged in popularity across the country. In 1933 Hilter became chancellor after a complete blunder and quickly declared himself dictator of Germany with a plan to bring wealth back to the common people. This was the beginning of the events leading directly to World War 2 as the Nazi party were given free reign to push their fascist ideology and start invasion plans.
