In January 1933 Hitler becomes Chancellor. How? He said things people wanted to hear, persuasive, very good at speeches, Germany hated the treaty, Hitler said he would get rid of it, he managed to help Germany recover from the Wall street Crash.
REARMAMENT
When Hitler finally becomes into power he is determined to increase Germanys armed forces after they were reduced due to the Treaty of Versailles.He keeps it a secret because he doesnt want to be stopped as he knows its wrong.
Disarmament conference (feb 1932) Germany had been part of the league for 6 years and people agreed that they should be treated more equally and that the treaty was too harsh on them.
Should everyone disarm to the level of Germany?
All the powers failed to agree on disarming to the level of Germany. As a result Germany storms out of the conference. Hitler says 'we will not rearm, if in 5 years all other nations disarm to Germanys level'
He leaves the league in 1933 and rearms anyway because he knows the league will never disarm.
