Adolf Hitler

Hitler’s Childhood/Early Adulthood

As he grew up, he loved Germany and hated how Austria ran its government so when his career as an artist failed, he joined the German army and fought for the country he loved more than his own.

After the war, Hitler met up with a group of people who had similar views on politics as he did. The other members of this group made him the leader, and together they annexed followers and became the group known as the Nazi Party.

• The Nazi followers had their orders from Hitler to bring the Jews to the concentration camps and other places built for Jewish people to be kept in and between 1938 and 1945 more than 65,000 Austrian Jews were murdered in the concentration and extermination camps.

His Last Battle…
