    The rise of the Nazi party in Germany can be summarized in 3 points: [1] Hitler joined the German Workers Party in 1919 and became its leader, rebranding it as the Nazi party. He outlined the racist Nazi ideology and 25-point program. [2] In the 1920s and early 1930s, the Nazi party grew rapidly as Germany faced economic crisis and political turmoil. They received over 30% of the vote in 1932 elections. [3] After the Reichstag fire in 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor and used emergency powers to consolidate control, becoming dictator after Hindenburg's death. The Nazi party was the sole legal party in Germany by 1933.
