After World War I, Germany faced economic collapse, political instability, and widespread social unrest, creating the perfect storm for radical ideologies to flourish. Tracing the Nazis' emergence from the fringes of politics to their consolidation of power, the series reveals the pivotal events, propaganda, and policies that reshaped Germany into a totalitarian state. Through a deep dive into the Reichstag Fire, the Enabling Act, and the use of fear and nationalism, it examines how the Nazis dismantled democratic institutions and silenced opposition. Explore how their ideology pervaded society, from education to culture, as they built a war machine driven by racial superiority and territorial ambition. The series also examines the global response to Hitler's early aggression, the failure of appeasement, and the eventual eruption of World War II. Richly detailed and grounded in historical analysis, this series offers a comprehensive look at how the Nazis' path from obscurity to domination changed Germany and set the world on a catastrophic course, leaving a legacy of lessons for future generations.
