Hitler and Nazi Germany


How important is it that students study Hitler and Nazi Germany? Year 9 are currently investigating Hitler’s rise to power and the Nazi party’s ability to keep control of the German people. Schools all over the country study this crucial part of the 20th century, and numerous films and books cover the topic. Why is this such an important part of our learning in History? Are there any other areas of history that you think are essential learning for students?

I think that we learn about the nazis and hitler because they played a big part in world war 2 and if it wasn't for them the present day and every day following wouldn't be the same. If hitler won we would all be speaking german and wearing lederhosen.

I think that many people study about Hitler and Nazi Germany becuase it was a big thing that happened in the 20th Century and because of the events that happened in the period of 6 years that the war went on for such as the mass execution of the jews (The Holocaust). The Vast Empire of Germany and how tey came to power using every way possible and because of their leader Adolf Hitler. Hitler was a politician and Leader od the Nazi Party, he became Führer of Germany in 1933 thanks to hs strong voice and party and things he belived in and wanted to do to make Germany a great nation again.

I think that it is important for children to study about Nazi germany because it gives them an inside into the lives of many people and how they where effected by nazism. I also think that they should learn about it because it was an event that effected the whole world and children should know about it and how people where treated during it.

An children should know about it and what happened during it; it will also allow a insight into the lives of the people living at the time, it will also show how another world war began.

I think schools study Hitler, The Nazis is because he led the Germans in WW2. This is a war which we won so we are studying our opponents and their tactics. His decisions have led to us leading our life today.

I think we have to study Germany And Hitler because our country fought against them and won in WW2. The leader of Germany throughout the war was Hitler and he and the Nazis have changed the way that we live today. It also teaches us Germany's struggles after and throughout the war.

I think that it is a good idea to learn about the Nazis and germany as we can learn about why the nazis came to power, why germany's people voted for hitler and what they did once they came to power. I think that we should also learn about the new advances in weapons during the second world war and how they affected the outcome.

I think that we should also learn about the advances in weaponry during the second world for example the new types of guns and tanks (e.g the tiger tank) and also the v1 and v2 bombs.

I think that Nazi Germany and Hitler were a crucial part of the 20th century. Germany had played a huge role in both World Wars, and it shouldn't be a thing to be forgotten. It is such a famous event in history and is well known all around the world, it is also generally a common sense topic that people should know quite a lot about. Especially if your living in a country which took part in either of the World Wars.

I think we learn about the nazis and hitler because he was a main part of history, and because of ww2. I also think we have to learn about him so we can see all the faults made and how it affected us all.

i think the reason why we have to study hitler is because he was a man that changed the world with his actions. He destroyed lives for his own benefit. I also think that we study nazis in history because they was in ww1 and they made revenge in ww2
