The timeline of World War 2 may very well have begun at the end of World War 1 in 1918, because only three years later Adolf Hitler was to become the leader of the National Socialist “Nazi” Party in Germany. While he was not yet Chancellor, a dictator, or the Führer he was well on his way to becoming one of the most tyrannical leaders known to the modern world. In 1933, the real timeline of World War 2 begins with the appointment of Hitler as Chancellor of Germany and finally ends in 1945 when the Allies take over the German government.

Adolf Hitler plays an integral and maniacal role in the timeline of World War 2 in that he was the mastermind behind many of the Nazi party’s actions. Hitler had it in mind to make a pure race and eradicate any other that would contaminate it, including the Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, blacks, and any other “non-perfect” race; which was everything except the master race. Hitler’s master race was what he called the Aryan race (blonde, blue-eyed, tall).

World War 2 ended in 1945, shortly after Hitler’s suicide with mistress, Eva Braun. It was in 1945 that the Allied forces overtook the Axis and reclaimed Europe, ending what was to be known as one of the vilest wars known in modern history. Although more than 60 years have gone by, World War 2, Adolf Hitler, and the Holocaust has been permanently burned into the minds of those who lived through it and those who will only hear about it in history class.
