The Nazi Party

Although America fought Japan in World War Two it is impossible to think of that period of our nation's history without thinking of Germany and the Nazi Party. The Nazi Party didn't begin in the 1940s, rather they had been developing their ideas and solidifying their beliefs for a long time before that.

The German Worker's Party, which eventually became the Nazi Party, was founded by Anton Drexler in 1919. 1921 was when Adolf Hitler became leader of the Party and it began to pick up steam as well as supporters. Just nine years later, Hitler had helped the party go from having 14 seats in parliament to 107.

In 1923, however, Hitler attempted to lead the Nazi Party in a coup against the Weimar Republic. This attempt failed and the Nazi Party was temporarily disbanded and Hitler went to prison.

With the onset of the great depression support for the Nazi Party began to wane. This being said, they were still receiving 33% of the vote. In 1931, Hitler ran for presidency against Paul Von Hindenberg and won. On July 14, 1933, his government declared the Nazi Party to be the only political party in Germany.

Nazi Party Beliefs:

No more than Nature desires the mating of weaker with stronger individuals, even less does she desire the blending of a higher with a lower race, since, if she did, her whole work of higher breeding, over perhaps hundreds of thousands of years, night be ruined with one blow. Historical experience offers countless proofs of this. It shows with terrifying clarity that in every mingling of Aryan blood with that of lower peoples the result was the end of the cultured people. North America, whose population consists in by far the largest part of Germanic elements who mixed but little with the lower colored peoples, shows a different humanity and culture from Central and South America, where the predominantly Latin immigrants often mixed with the aborigines on a large scale. By this one example, we can clearly and distinctly recognize the effect of racial mixture. The Germanic inhabitant of the American continent, who has remained racially pure and unmixed, rose to be master of the continent; he will remain the master as long as he does not fall a victim to defilement of the blood. The result of all racial crossing is therefore in brief always the following: Lowering of the level of the higher race; Physical and intellectual regression and hence the beginning of a slowly but surely progressing sickness.

Although the German Nazi Party was banned in 1945, the party still has supporters.
