In 1919, he joined a small group called the German Workers' Party, which later became the Nazi Party. Adolf became a very good speaker and helped the party grow.

In 1933, Adolf became the leader of Germany. He wanted to make Germany strong again and built many roads and buildings to create jobs. He also hosted the Olympic Games in 1936. Adolf believed strongly in his ideas and made many changes in Germany.
