Other than the leader himself--Adolf Hitler (b!.20 April 1889;d!. – 30 April 1945) was an Austrian-born politician who led the National Socialist German Workers Party!.

The official cause of death was recorded as suicide!.

Hermann Wilhelm Goering--(b!.January 12, 1893; d!.October 15, 1946) was a German politician and military leader, a leading member of the Nazi Party, second in command of the Third Reich, designated successor to Adolf Hitler, and commander of the Luftwaffe (German Air Force)!.

Dr!. Paul Joseph Goebbels--(b!.October 29, 1897;d!. May 1, 1945) was a German politician and Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda in Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945!.

Goebbels came into contact with the Nazi Party in 1923 during the French occupation of the Ruhr and became a member in 1924!. After the Nazis gained power in 1933, he was appointed propaganda minister!. One of his first acts was to order the burning of books by Jewish or anti-Nazi authors!.

Karl Adolf Eichmann (March 19, 1906–-June 1, 1962), often referred to as "the architect of the Holocaust", was a high-ranking Nazi equivalent to a Lieutenant Colonel!. Due to his organizational talents and ideological reliability, he was given
the task of facilitating and managing the logistics of mass deportation of Jews to ghettos and extermination camps in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe!. !.After the war, he traveled to Argentina using a fraudulently obtained laissez-passer (passport) issued by the International Red Cross and lived there under a false identity working for Mercedes-Benz until the 1960s!.

He reformed Germany's war production to the extent that it continued to increase for over a year despite increasingly intensive Allied bombing!. After the war, he was tried at Nuremberg and sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment for his role in the Third Reich!. As "the Nazi who said sorry", he was the only senior Nazi figure to admit guilt and express remorse!. Speer died of natural causes in 1981, in London, England!.

The word is Nazi!. The z in German and Italian is pronounced like a ts in English!. You know like pizza is pronounced Peet sah

Adolph Hiter(former resident of flop house in Vienna)

Heinrich Himmler(he had been a chicken farmer)Reich Interior Minister

Martin Bormann

Josef Gobbels (with umlaut over the o) spelled Goebbels in English, pronounced Gebbels!.

Herman Goring with an umlaut over the o!. That is the double dots!. spelled Goering in English!. Pronounced Gehring!. He was a dope addict, became REich minister of avaiation!. Oh, he also liked to wear makeup!.

Joachim von Rippentrop!. he was a wine salesman that bestowed the "von" on himself!. became Reich foreign minister

There was one that had been a pornograper, can't remember what his name was or his position!.

Now, there is nothing wrong with being a good old honest chicken farmer or wine salesman, but the Nazi heirarchy were not Germany's elite but they wouldn't have been the elite of any country including Third World Countries!.

The allies were determined to crush Germany after WWI!. In the long run Germany's main guilt was losing the war!. (The repurcussions from the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand should have led only to a war between Russia and Austria!. However, England and Germany didn't think the seas were big enough for both of them and they were annoying each other and made all the alliances that turned it into a world war)!. The result of the Treaty of Versailles was a Germany in constant turmoil!. Members of the German Military (Wehrmacht) thought they could use the charasmatic Hitler as a tool to regain German strength!. They didn't realize they would become his tool!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
