Answer
(a) The Anti-Semitic (Anti-Jewish) propaganda carried on by the Nazi party described the Jews as traitors and blamed them of conspiring with the allies during the war. They impressed upon the Germans that the cause of their hardships were the Jews who exploited the German economy. As a result many Germans rallied behind the Nazi party.
(b) Germany suffered heavy losses of life and property in the First World War. After the war many soldiers became unemployed. Trade and commerce were also ruined. The workmen were thrown out of employment. In 1929, there was, however, a great slump in Europe called the Great Depression. It affected Germany also. Germany was in the grip of unemployment and starvation. The prices rose and value of money declined. The Republic failed to solve the economic crisis.
(c) Hitler possessed a very influential and charming personality. He was a first-rate orator. He was a resourceful person, a tireless worker and an able organiser. His speeches were very effective and had great logic in them. Naturally, the people began to have a blind faith in him and they started thinking of him as a great leader.
