Adolf Hitler, the leader of the German Nazi Party, was a powerful dictator in the 20th century. He rose through the ranks of the Nazi Party by taking advantage of Germany's economic troubles and political issues. Hitler was born in Austria in 1889 and grew up in Upper Austria. He dropped out of school and pursued a career as an artist, but was unsuccessful. He became interested in politics during his time in Vienna and developed ideas that would shape Nazi ideology. Hello and welcome to today's podcast. I am Adegi Tejerov, a student of Negus State University of Science and Technology. On today's episode, I'll be talking about the early life of Adolf Hitler. Adolf Hitler, the leader of the German Nazi Party, was one of the most powerful and notorious dictators of the 20th century. After serving with German military in World War I, Hitler capitalized on economic woes, popular discontent and political infighting during the Weimar Republic to rise through the ranks of the Nazi Party. Hitler was born on April 28, 1889, in Branau-Ham-Himm, a small Austrian town near the Austro-German frontier, after his father, Alois, retired as a state customs official. Young Adolf spent part of his childhood in Mainz, the capital of Upper Austria. Not wanting to follow in his father's footsteps as a civil servant, he began to struggle in his secondary school and eventually dropped out. Alois died in 1903, and Adolf pursued his dream of being an artist, though he was ejected from Vienna's Academy of Fine Arts. After his mother, Clara, died in 1908, Hitler moved to Vienna, where he pieced together a living, painting scenery and monuments, and selling these images. Lonely, isolated, and a voracious reader, Hitler became interested in politics during his year in Vienna, and developed many of the ideas that would shape Nazi ideology. Thank you for watching!
