The Axis Powers :: World War II History

The Axis PowersAlmost everyone knows of The Axis Powers. They were enemies of The Allied Powers in World War II. They are synonymous with The Holocaust because Adolf Hitler was the adult male who started The Holocaust and he ws the dictator of Germany. The Axis Powers originally was the alliance between Adolf Hitlers Nazi Germany and Benito Mussolinis Fascist Italy. Italy did not do much during the war though. The goals of The Axis Powers intelligibly emerged in the Italo-Germany Pact. It was a stipulation that was signed in May of 1939 in which Italy and Germany promised to help each other in the time of war. Germany also signed some other pact because Hitler believed that Germany had lost World War I due to the fact that Germany had to fight on two sides. The pact was a ten-year, non-aggression pact between the USSR and Germany. The pact was later abolished when the USSR began to help the Allied Powers fight Germany. Hitler wasnt well known during World War I. As a matter of fa ct, Hitler was a private during the war and end up gaining power because he appealed to a large number of German people. He appealed to them by a combination of an effective and well-practiced style of speaking with what looked bid undoubtable sincerity and determination. This helped Hitler find a large audience for his program of national revival, racial pride in Germanic values, hatred for France and of the Jewish and other un-German races, and despise for the Weimer Republic. With the way he spoke, Hitler convinced the people of Germany to believe that a dictatorship was the only thing that could save Germany from the problems it was having. Hitlers views only changed a little in the days to follow yet he still managed to draw an increasing number of people to his speeches. On September 30, 1938, France and Great Britain agreed to let Nazi Germany fool a piece of Czechoslovakia. Hitler told the British and French that it would be his last demand for territory in Europe. Hitle r ended up breaking this pact when he took all over Prague. During that same year, Germany attacked Poland and defeated them in one month. Poland was then split into two parts with Hitlers Nazi Germany taking part and Stalins Communist USSR taking the other part. The onset was what started World War II.
