Hitler's Rise To Power

Used his position to form a dictatorship, suspended basic rights and allowed detention without trial, gave his cabinet full legislative powers for a period of four years with the Enabling Act

On July 14, 1933, Hitler's Nazi Party was declared the only legal political party in Germany

The day before Hindenburg's death in August 1934, the cabinet had enacted a law abolishing the office of president, combining its powers with those of the chancellor. Hitler thus became head of state as well as head of government and was formally named leader and chancellor. As head of state, Hitler became supreme commander of the armed forces.

Rise to Power
He organized a paramilitary unit known as the "Black Shirts," who terrorized political opponents and helped increase Fascist influence.
As Italy slipped into political chaos, Mussolini declared that only he could restore order and was given the authority in 1922 as prime minister.
He gradually dismantled all democratic institutions. By 1925, he had made himself dictator, taking the title "Il Duce" ("the Leader").
Mussolini carried out an extensive public works program and reduced unemployment, making him very popular with the people.
Joseph Stalin
Rise To Power
-
Three years later, the Bolsheviks seized power in Russia.
The Soviet Union was founded in 1922, with Lenin as its first leader. Stalin had continued to move up the party ladder, and in 1922 he became secretary general of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, a role that enabled him to appoint his allies to government jobs and grow a base of political support.
Stalin eventually outmanoeuvred his rivals and won the power struggle for control of the Communist Party.
By the late 1920s, he had become dictator of the Soviet Union.
