Yes, if anything it's over-appreciated in public consciousness.
The Russian revolution and the Great Depression were also crucially important events that explain the rise of the Nazis.
- imtringued 4y agoIt's more like the depression before WW1, the hyperinflation in 1923 and the great depression all combined resulted in Nazis gaining power.
- hackerlight 4y agoI'm familiar with these two things: - The Great Depression was the acute and proximate cause behind the rise in support for the Nazis. Their popularity went up by ~20-30% due to this one event. - The Russian Revolution and the attempts of communist revolutionaries in Germany in 1919 was the defining event of Hitler's psyche, according to historian Ian Kershaw > depression before WW1, the hyperinflation in 1923 I'd be interested to read more about this.
