In 1933 Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany.. but in Germany this doesn't give you total power. President Hindenburg still remained. In 1934 the old man was fading fast and Hitler had his opportunity. Would Hitler be able to pull off claiming Hindenburg's role as well as his current one? Would the people accept such a thing?

Most aren't aware that Benito Mussolini absolutely hated Adolf Hitler and that their alliance was purely due to convenience but fewer still are aware of the time they nearly went to war. In 1934 a crisis in Austria erupted and could easily have gotten out of control and plunged Central Europe into war.

What really happened during the Rohm Purge? In 1934 the SA were approaching a state of revolt as they felt Adolf Hitler had not taken his National Socialist revolution far enough. Also, they felt that they were not being given enough power and they felt like the second fiddle compared to the army. Pressure was mounting on Hitler to deal with these rowdy brownshirts from all directions, the conservatives, his vice chancellor Papen, President Hindenburg, the German people and even the other leading members of the NSDAP like Goring, Goebbels and Himmler. Eventually Adolf Hitler could hesitate no more and he decided on radical action. In late June the SA was changed forever as the head of the organization was severed clean off and from then on the SS would be by far the main NSDAP organization. Also the opportunity was used to take care of political rivals and settle old grudges. When all was said and done.. dozens laid dead all over Germany. Let's find out what happened, to who and why.

In the Second World War, it wasn't just Germans fighting for Germany. Belgians, Frenchmen, Armenians, Latvians, Portugese, Spaniards and more all answered the call. There was one group however that went down in the history books more than any others and were the main component of the most famous Waffen-SS Division of all time, the SS-Wiking. The Wiking was comprised of 1000's of Scandinavians who all voluntarily decided to join Hitler's war effort against the Soviet Union for a variety of reasons. Let's find out what let these men to risk their lives when they could easily have not done.

Our entire world view is now based on the idea that World War 2 was a battle of Good vs Evil, and that us intervening was unquestionably a good thing. If you even question it, you're hounded down and called a Nazi. But why can't we call 'The Good War' into question? The whole point of the war, originally, was to save the Polish Corridor or at the very least, like the guarantee said, Polish independence. We failed in this task. All of Eastern Europe was handed over to the Soviets, an enemy feared far more than Hitler's Germany, at least in the actual Eastern Europeans eyes. And were our aims in going to war even so altruistic after all? Is the official narrative true? Let's find out. DISCLAIMER: I didn't make a disclaimer in the video, but here, just in case. In the video, I mention QUOTES from 2 individuals insulting Hore-Belisha where they mention his religion/ethnicity, obviously, quotes are not my own opinion by their very nature. Use common sense.

In 1928, the National Socialist's had a measly 810,127 votes in the federal election, only the 9th largest party in the country. However in just 2 years time, everything would change forever. In 1930, they had won over another 6 million Germans, making them the 2nd biggest party in the country and suddenly... the final victory was in sight. But why did 6 million more Germans vote for them? Why did they suddenly believe in Adolf Hitler's vision of a United Germany? Let's find out. Also in this video, we cover other events around this time in Hitler's life. Why did Adolf Hitler's niece 'kill herself'? Did he kill her? Were they in a relationship? How did Adolf Hitler meet Eva Braun? Why did the SA keep revolting? What is wrong with the Strasser brothers? All this and more.

Growing up, we are told the story of the Blitz. It usually goes along the lines of Evil Hitler trying to conquer the world as usual and he tried to bomb the British into submission. But is this really what happened? Who started the terror bombing, what did each side have to gain from bombing civilian centres? Did Hitler even want to bomb London? Why does the official narrative differ so much from the reality? Let's find out in this video. The Blitz Myth.

In the UK, every single person has heard a phrase along the lines of 'If Churchill didn't stop Hitler invading the UK, we'd all be speaking German mate!'. But is this really what happened?

Let's cut past the emotions and the need to justify our own actions. Did Adolf Hitler really want to invade the United Kingdom? Why? How does that even make any sense? Operation Sealion?

In 1940, as typical history videos go, Germany simply invaded Norway, but not much context is given. In reality, the Norway campaign has a much more interesting story. What was the actual reason for the German invasion? Why does no one mention that it was in fact the British who broke Norwegian neutrality first? Why did Winston Churchill become Prime Minister after the failure of Norway despite it being his idea? How did Germany win in Norway in 1940? Find out all this and more in this video.

From 1925-1928 the NSDAP underwent an internal conflict that almost split the party in little pieces, or at least into 2. Gregor Strasser in the North of Germany was essentially pushing National Bolshevism along with his secretary, Joseph Goebbels. Both were on the left of the party, obviously, and wanted to take the party towards more of a class struggle. Private property being abolished was on the table and they were trying to pry Hitler away from the true National Socialists in Munich whom stuck to the original 25 points of the party. Hitler's vision however was class unity, not class struggle, and this conflict could not be allowed to evolve into a civil war. Also see how Hitler turned Goebbels into his most loyal solider and how he rose to power as well as Hitler's strange relationship with his niece, Geli.

Many have been fed a false narrative about how the Second World War began. When did the World War become a World War? In my eyes, this was only one occasion. When Winston Churchill chose to breech Norwegian neutrality and both invade Norway himself as Lord of the Admiralty and also causing Germany to invade too to counter them. After this, the War, became a world war. Churchill himself said he wanted to quote 'Open up the war' and that was exactly what he did, he got just what he wanted. Why did Winston do it and how?

Most know of Germany's unification with Austria, the Anschluss. More still know of the Sudeten crisis or the Munich betrayal, where the Sudeten German's were reunited with Germany. But many do not know of the 3rd and final peaceful conquest before the Second World War began. Let's discuss the Annexation of Memel/Klaipeda from Lithuania and how it came about in 1939.

When Weimar Germany was plunged into chaos in early 1923 and hyperinflation was out of control, a revolution seemed inevitable, but nobody knew from where and how. In Bavaria, Von Kahr was cracking down on Adolf Hitler's National Socialist German Workers Party and he was being backed into a corner. Adolf could either make a daring bid for power in Bavaria, and then seek to take over the entire nation, or he could watch his political career wither and die under the restrictions from the Bavarian Government. He took the gamble and in November 1923, the Beer Hall Putsch took place, which would change Adolf Hitler's life forever, as well as everyone else involved, if they survived. Let's find out what happened, and what went wrong.

When the German army was pushed back to it's own original borders in World War 2, the German civilians were prepared for the worst. But somehow, it was even worse than anyone could possibly imagine. The biggest mass sexual assault and perhaps murder of civilians was opened up on the people of Germany and their suffering has mostly been forgotten by history. Let's discuss how the Soviet Union's troops treated the civilians of the German Reich during World War 2. We will discuss what happened to those that fled, those that stayed and those that tried to escape by sea, like those on board the biggest naval disaster of the 20th century, the Wilhelm Gustloff.

Adolf Hitler had joined the German Workers Party (DAP) and taken them from nothing to something. Previously a back room debating club rather than the political party it was advertised as, he had dragged them into a real force to be reckoned with. By 1922 it was one of the most popular movements in Bavaria and those in power were terrified. With crisis’ breaking out on Germany’s frontiers and the local government closing in on him, it was time for drastic action. He could do nothing and be banned from political life by Von Kahr, or he could make his move, legal or not. This video is a part of a longer series but it can also be viewed as a standalone video.

Once Winston Churchill initiated the back and forth of bombing population centers in 1940, he had unleashed a chain of events that would result in millions of dead women and children in ways more horrifying than the world had ever seen before. Propaganda had worn down peoples humanity and the difference between innocents and soldiers was narrowing in the minds of the populations of both sides. The culmination of this insane propaganda resulted in the firebombing of cities like Hamburg and then ultimately, Dresden. Making this video was genuinely a hard task. The bombing of Dresden is joked about like it was nothing, but reading accounts on the ground is enough to make anyone with an ounce of humanity want to vomit. Let's find out what happened at the firebombing of Dresden in 1945.

In 1919 when Adolf Hitler first joined the German Workers Party (DAP) it was nothing more than a debating society of a few men in dark back rooms in the depressing time of post-war Munich. After three years, Adolf Hitler and the now National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) were famous all over Munich, Germany and even outside of Germany. Let's find out what happened and why the German people began to support Hitler in their 10,000's. He was involved in potential coup's, mass events and brawls with the Communists. He pushed an image and promoted a message that clearly resonated with German's at the time. Why did Germans support Hitler? Let's find out.

In 1943 Benito Mussolini was voted out of office by the Grand Council of Fascism, throwing Italy into an even bigger mess than it was already in. King Victor Emmanuel III was also in on the plotting and he had Mussolini arrested and locked up, ready to be transported to the Allies. Adolf Hitler could not bring himself to sit idly by and watch his friend be executed and he also needed a propaganda victory at home. There was only one man he trusted to pull off the impossible, Otto Skorzeny. Operation Oak or Unternehmen Eiche in German was the rescue of Benito Mussolini from a mountain top hotel in the Apennines. On paper, it seemed impossible. In reality, the daring raid came off without a single man killed. It was truly one of the most impressive feats of the war. Let's find out what happened and the situation surrounding it.
