ABSTRACT
Adolf Hitler totalitarian goals also extended into the sphere of culture, where a propaganda apparatus headed by Joseph Goebbels and yearly mass rallies at Nuremberg presented him as a demigod. Adolf Hitler sought to replace Christianity with a secular cult defined by his own racist and nationalistic ideology. Adolf Hitler directly incited World War II, which he saw as an opportunity to increase German power, expand to the east, and eliminate Europe's Jewish population. Adolf Hitler's fanaticism produced a false conviction that Germany was invincible. Adolf Hitler further depleted Germany's resources by ordering a systematic campaign of murder against the Jews, which came to be known as the Holocaust. The “new order” that Adolf Hitler sought to impose on Europe also brought destruction to many of the countries surrounding Germany. The death toll in Europe during World War II is Adolf Hitler's darkest legacy.
