<h2>How Hitler Came to Power: Understanding the German Elections of 1919-1933</h2>
<p><b>Data Vis</b> by Claudia Aguirre. <b>Data Source:</b> <i>The Weimar Republic</i>, Eberhard Kolb</p>
<p> By the time World War I ended, the Germans had lost millions of lives and were in a deep economic depression. The unrest that followed the end of the war resulted in the overthrow of the empire and the formation of a new government, the Weimar Republic. </p>
<p>This time in German history is remembered by the cultural renaissance of German society; the emergence of cabaret, Bauhaus and the arts. At the same time, it also saw some of the biggest political and economic failures, most highlighted by rampant hyperinflation and ultimately, the government's inability to stop Adolf Hitler from coming to power in 1935. </p>
<p>Leading to that fateful day in 1935, there were more elections and political parties around the country than Germans could count. Many (like the Nazi Party, once named the National Socialist German Workers' Party) appeared one day, died the next and revived in a few months. In following these patterns, historians have been able to understand the state of the German mindset and how the Nazi Party was actually able to get to power.</p>
