Hitler and Hitler Biography

Adolf Hitler was born April 20th, 1889 in Austria but moved to Germany and became a German politician that was soon to become the leader of the Nazi Party.

Hitler became obsessed with German nationalism from a young age.[27] He expressed loyalty only to Germany, despising the declining Habsburg Monarchy and its rule over an ethnically diverse empire.[28][29] Hitler and his friends used the German greeting "Heil", and sang the German anthem "Deutschland Über Alles" instead of the Austrian Imperial anthem.[30]

In world war 1, Adolf Hitler was a decorated veteran. Hitler also joined the German Workers’ Party in 1919 and 2 years later in 1921, he became the leader of the NSDAP, the Nazi party. About 2 years later, he attempted a coup d’etat in Munich.This failed coup resulted in imprisonment of Hitler for 1 year where he only spent 9 months in Prison. During this time, he wrote his famous book Mein Kampf(My Struggle), which combines elements of autobiography with description of Hitler's political ideology.
