His legacy:\n\nLegacy\n"I would have preferred it if he'd followed his original ambition and become an architect." — Paula Hitler, Hitler's younger sister, during an interview with a U.S. intelligence operative in late 1945.\n\nAt the time of Hitler's death most of Germany's infrastructure and major cities were in ruins and he had left explicit orders to complete the destruction. Millions of Germans were dead with millions more wounded or homeless. In his will he dismissed other Nazi leaders and appointed Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz as Reichspräsident (President of Germany) and Goebbels as Reichskanzler (Chancellor of Germany). However, Goebbels and his wife Magda committed suicide on 1 May 1945. On 8 May 1945, in Reims, France, the German armed forces surrendered unconditionally ending the war in Europe and with the creation of the Allied Control Council on 5 June 1945, the Four Powers assumed "supreme authority with respect to Germany." Adolf Hitler's proclaimed Thousand Year Reich had lasted 12 years.\n\nSince the defeat of Germany in World War II, Hitler, the Nazi Party and the results of Nazism have been regarded in most of the world as synonymous with evil. Historical and cultural portrayals of Hitler in the west are almost uniformly negative, sometimes neglecting to mention the adulation the German people bestowed on Hitler during his lifetime, and the vast majority of present-day Germans share a negative view of Hitler.\n\nThe copyright of Hitler's book Mein Kampf is held by the Free State of Bavaria and will expire in 2015. Reproductions in Germany are generally authorized only for scholarly purposes and in heavily commented form. The display of swastikas or other Nazi symbols is prohibited in Germany and political extremists are generally under surveillance by the Verfassungsschutz, one of the federal or state-based offices for the protection of the constitution.\n\nThere have been instances of public figures referring to his legacy in neutral or favourable terms, particularly in South America, the Islamic World and parts of Asia. Future Egyptian President Anwar Sadat wrote favourably of Hitler in 1953. Bal Thackeray, leader of the right-wing Shiv Sena party in the Indian state of the Maharashtra, declared in 1995 that he was an admirer of Hitler.\n\n--\nSome negative things include:\n\nRepression:\n\nThe Gestapo-SS complex (the SS and Gestapo organizations) were primarily responsible for repression in the Nazi state. This was implemented not only against political enemies such as communists but also against perceived "asocials" such as habitual criminals and the work-shy along with "racial enemies," mainly Jews.\n\nThe racial policies of Nazi Germany during the early to mid-1930s included the harassment and persecution of Jews through legislation, restrictions on civil rights and limiting their economic opportunities. Under the 1935 Nuremberg Laws Jews lost their German citizenship and were expelled from government employment, their professions and most forms of economic activity. To indicate their Jewishness, Jews were forced to adopt a second name and had their papers stamped with a big red "J". The policy was successful in causing the emigration of many thousands but nevertheless turned increasingly violent in the mid to late 1930s. In 1938 a pogrom orchestrated by Joseph Goebbels and endorsed by Hitler called Kristallnacht destroyed many Jewish businesses and synagogues and resulted in about 100 deaths. Between November 1938 and September 1939 more than 180,000 Jews fled Germany and the Nazis seized whatever property they left behind. From 1941 Jews were required to wear a yellow Star of David in public. Throughout the 1930s the Propaganda Ministry disseminated anti-Semitic propaganda.\n\n\n& the Holocaust:\n\nBetween 1939 and 1945 the SS, assisted by collaborationist governments and recruits from occupied countries, systematically kille

I agree, Hitler was more evil. Mussolini was just a petty criminal who was bent on squeezing everything out of Italy that he could.

Adolph Hitler, leader of the Nazi party in Germany, became Chancellor under President von Hindenberg in 1933, and began his official reign of terror against the Jews, and many other groups of people.  When von Hindenberg died, Hitler assumed the presidency also, and became the sole ruler of Germany.  Soon after, he ordered implementation of THE FINAL SOLUTION, which meant murdering every Jew he could get his hands on.

Nazis are hated because they promote ideas of racism and anti-Semitism. And of course because of holocaust. Adolf Hitler was the leader of NSDAP.

Hitler came to power at a time when Germany was defeated (from WWI), weak, vulnerable, in a depression, and looking for someone to blame for their troubles.  The Jews became their primary scape goat, and Hitler became their sense of hope for the future.\n\nGermany decided to take over the world, starting with Poland.  The Soviet Union was initially an ally in Germany's quest, but then Germany attached them as well.  \n\nThe US initially planned to stay out of the war, and that policy held for the first couple of years.  We were dragged in when Japan invaded the US through their surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.\n\nThe rest is...well...history.\n\n;-)

Germans were for ages very pedantic. They kept their records meticulously for generations. To be determined a Jew, it was enough for you to have one Jewish grandparent.\nSometimes there were exceptions to the rule, but mostly there weren't. It wasn't a problem at all, to look three generations back at the archives and find out what happens to you. \nIn very special cases, Hitler himself has overridden the case, but it happened only very few times. Generally the Nazi machine never deviated from the standard in that respect.

Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 at Ulm in Baden-Württemberg, German Empire, about 100 km east of Stuttgart. His parents were Hermann Einstein, a featherbed salesman who later ran an electrochemical works, and Pauline, whose maiden name was Koch. They were married in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt. The family was Jewish (non-observant); Albert attended a Catholic elementary school and, at the insistence of his mother, was given violin lessons. Though he initially disliked (and eventually discontinued) the lessons, he would later take great solace in Mozart's violin sonatas.

Adolf Hitler (help·info) (April 20, 1889 – April 30, 1945) was Chancellor of Germany from 1933, and "Führer" (leader) of Germany from 1934 until his death. He was leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), better known as the Nazi Party.\n\nHitler gained power in a Germany facing crisis after World War I. Using propaganda and charismatic oratory, he was able to appeal to the economic need of the lower and middle classes, while sounding resonant chords of nationalism, anti-Semitism and anti-communism. With the establishment of a restructured economy, a rearmed military, and a totalitarian fascist dictatorship, Hitler pursued an aggressive foreign policy with the intention of expanding German Lebensraum ("living space"), which triggered World War II when Germany invaded Poland. At the height of its power, Nazi Germany occupied most of Europe, but it and the Axis Powers were eventually defeated by the Allies. By then, Hitler's racial policies had culminated in a genocide of approximately eleven million people, including about six million Jews, in what is now known as the Holocaust.\n\nIn the final days of the war, Hitler committed suicide in his underground bunker in Berlin with his newlywed wife, Eva Braun.

Adolf lead Germany during World War II. Adolf also  clung to supremisist beliefs and extermination of "undesirable" races in order to create a so-called "perfect" race.

Hitler was a mystical minded idiot who's only claim to fame was being in the right place at the right time and taking over a bunch of simple minded already angry and bitter people who wanted revenge on the world. I bet in his book he talks a lot about WWI and God? Hitler's a joke. What influence has he had? National socialism, pah, that's barely a sentence, let alone an attempt at a philosophy. "Germans are genetically superior, therefore they must rule the world." The refutation is WWII itself: Germans lost, therefore that statement is false, therefore, done.
