en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Nazi_Germany.
Wiki helped me get a basic understanding of how the economy was like in Nazi
Germany. This helped me further make a clear explanation and description of the
atmosphere in Germany because it said the German economy, like those of many other
western nations, suffered the effects of the Great Depression with unemployment soaring.
It also said Hitler’s views on economics, beyond his early belief that the economy was of
secondary importance, are a matter of debate which help me prove that the economy
collapsed resulting in the need for people to move to places like South America.
This website was essential because after doing further research I came across a
significant contributor to Germany during the pre-WWII, which was the Treaty of
Versailles. This treaty was so crucial because Germany was not allowed to take part in
the negotiations, the German government issued a protest against what it considered to be
unfair demands, and a “violation of honor,” soon afterward withdrawing from the
proceedings of the peace conference. Germans of all political shades denounced the
treaty the provision that blamed Germany for starting the waran insult to the nation’s
resigned rather than sign the treaty. In a passionate speech before the National Assembly
on 21 March 1919, he called the treaty a “murderous plan.” All of this was was very
significant to my thesis in a way because it proves in a different way the hostile ideology
Though I used a lot of Wiki, this one page helped me comprehend the meaning and
significance of the Nazi Salute and how it had an affect on people. This was also a way to
identify the Germans vs. German Jews because the jews had a harder time doing the
Salute because of their religion. It says “The Nazi or Hitler salute is a gesture that was
used as a greeting in Nazi Germany. It was the Nazi Party to signal obedience to the
party’s leader and as a result of this the salute was mandatory for all civilians.”

This site simply helped me get a better understanding of Nazism or known as Nazi
by German nationalism.

This website of Museum of Tolerance shows the relationship between German Jews
before World War II. This site explains the how and why the need for people that have a
Jewish background or celebrate the Jewish religion was excluded from the country,
causing them to have to move out of Germany. It says that In 1933, 600,000 Jews lived in
Germany: 20 percent were immigrants from Eastern Europe, and 80 percent were
German citizens. Many were descendants of Jews who had settled in Germany for nearly
2,000 years. They were socially integrated and participated in German intellectual,
cultural, economic, and political life. It then goes on to say how Germany and
specifically Nazi Germany started to gain anti-semitic attitudes towards Jews which is a

six-years-old. This photo was taken in September of 1947. The image shows that though
she looked usual, she had a lot of eternal conflicts. At this point in her life she was
adopted by the Munck family, and it was known that. The phrase applied to children-
”useless mouths to feed”- was widely repeated before and during WWII to apply to the
wish of Germans and Austrians to kill 30 to 50 million in Europe, from Jews to anyone
outside who was attacked. Their need had nothing to do with anything economic; as
Hermann Goering put it in 1941. This helped me prove my thesis because it gives another
example of how the atmosphere was like from the children’s perspective, along with the
My first primary source is my grandmother, Carole Anne Strobel because she is who my
whole research project is about and focused on. She gave me my starting base for
information. In my interview with her, she said how when she was adopted by her birth
mother changed her name from Ramona Juanita Masquef to Carel Nancy Munck because
her adoptive family said it was too heathen and too Spanish from her parents going from
South America and then to Mexico before migrating to New York. So by changing her
name to Munck which was of German descent. This is an example of where she moved
from and because of this it brought up my questions about why for some was South
This website is essential to my research project because it gave me historical facts and
data regarding World War II. This was needed because my grandmother was born during
the war and it was necessary to investigate what the economic and political areas were
like. In the article it says, Hitler capitalized on this economic decline and the deep
German resentment due to the emasculating Treaty of Versailles, signed following the
armistice of 1918. This is great to know to get a specific historical event that I could
focus on that contributed to the economic collapse. It also helps get a better sense of the
political state Germany was in relating to Hitler’s decisions that affect people’s living
