PICTORIAL BIOGRAPHY OF ADOLF HITLER

Adolf Hitler was leader of Germany during the Third Reich (1933 1945) and the primary instigator of both the Second World War in Europe and the mass execution of millions of people deemed to be "enemies" or inferior to the Aryan ideal. He rose from being a talentless painter to dictator of Germany and, for a few months, emperor of much of Europe, before the constant gambling approach which had led him this far now brought only disaster. He was leader of the Nazi party and became a powerful dictator. Hitler started World War II by invading Poland and then invading many other European countries. He is also known for wanting to exterminate the Jewish people in the Holocaust. His empire was crushed by an array of the world's strongest nations, and he killed himself, having killed millions in turn.
