← Terug naar het dashboard
📅 30 Januari 1933 📍 Duitsland

President Paul von Hindenburg appointed Adolf Hitler chancellor through constitutional procedures after political crisis and elite negotiations. Hitler was not directly elected to the office and did not seize it in a coup that day. Conservative politicians believed they could control him; instead the Nazis dismantled democratic institutions, persecuted opponents, and intensified antisemitic state violence.
