"Hitler's Germany" refers to the period from 1933 to 1945 when Adolf Hitler led Nazi Germany. This era was marked by totalitarian rule, where the Nazi Party controlled all aspects of life, promoting extreme nationalism and anti-Semitism. The government implemented policies that led to the persecution of Jews and other minority groups, culminating in the Holocaust. During this time, Germany pursued aggressive expansionist policies, leading to the outbreak of World War II in 1939. The war resulted in widespread destruction across Europe and significant loss of life. Hitler's regime ultimately collapsed in 1945, leading to Germany's division and the beginning of a long process of reconstruction.
