WHAT WAS NAZISM?

National Socialism (common English short form Nazism) was the ideology of the Nazi Party and Nazi Germany. It is a variety of fascism that incorporates biologicalracism and antisemitism. It was designed to draw workers away from communism and into Völkisch nationalism. Major elements of Nazism have been described as far-right, such as allowing domination of society by people deemed racially superior, while purging society of people declared inferior.
Nazism claimed that the so-called Aryan master race was superior to all other races. To maintain what it regarded as thepurity and strength of the Aryan race, the Nazis sought to ethnically cleanse Jews and Romani, and exterminate the physically and mentally disabled. Other groups deemed "degenerate" or "asocial" received exclusionary treatment by the Nazi state and included homosexuals, blacks, Jehovah's Witnesses and political opponents. The Nazis promoted German territorial expansionism to gain Lebensraum ("livingspace") for German settlers. Nazism rejected democracy because it believed Jews used it for their self-preservation.

THE BEGINNING AND THE ENDING OF NAZI PARTY

The Nazi party was never the same in the first place. During the early 1918, a group of extreme right-wing people formed an organization that was racist, anti-Christian, and antisemitic. This group was called the Thule Society. Intheir newsletter, they were labeling the Jews as the stains of the human race and the enemies of the German people. However, they were as popular as the existing political parties. In order to gain popularity and support, they found help and teamed together with the German Workers' party. After the First World War, this organization was under the investigation of the army. An investigator was sentto the group. He then decided to join this society after agreeing with many of their ideas. His name was Adolf Hitler and that began the rise of Hitler and Nazism.
In 1919 at age thirty, immediatly Hitler began a frenzied effort to make it, the party, succeed. Hitler was one of the seven members of the executive committee of the party. First he prepared invitations for other party members togive to friends and family...few people came. Slowly the party grew and then one night they rented a beer cellar that could hold a hundred people and overly filled the place. One of the speakers was Hitler. Much to everyone's surprise he was a passionate and stirring speaker.In 1920 Hitler became the head of the party's propaganda and in Feburary he pushed for the parties first mass meeting. Thoughthe other leaders of the party apposed it, it was soon organized. It was feared that Marxist revolutionists would show up at the rally and be disruptive, but Hitler wanted this. He suspected correctly that this would only spur on the cause of the Worker's Party playing on the fears of the Germans that there would be a communist revolution.
By 1923 the party had exploded to 55,000 members and inNovember of 1923 Hitler led the "Beer Hall Putsch" which tried but did not succeed in overthrowing the government of Bavaria and eventually Berlin. It was spurred by the economic breakdown which had struck Germany. It failed dramatically and ended with several Nazi leaders (later to become iconized Nazi saints) and Hitler in prison. It was while in prison that Hitler wrote his infamous Mein Kampf.Nazism was somewhat outlawed which only lead to its becoming more popular among the young of Germany and Hitler's loyal SA.
It was between the time Hitler was released from the prison until 1933 that what historians call the "quiet years" occured. Nothing happened, except that the Nazi party grew quickly in size. 
In 1933, through Hitler's adept political manuvering he and his party were...
