How was mein kampf important?

Answer 1

it was hitlers only completed book, it was a historical artifact that showed hitlers views Lamchops21 answer: It was also important because: The Treaty of Versailles was meant to ensure a long lasting peace in Europe and was signed in 1918. The treaty forced Germans to pay heavy war reparations, denied Germany a naval and air force and made them greatly reduce their military forces (only allowed 100,000 men). Also Germany was forced to de-militarize Rhineland, they weren’t allowed conscription and were forced to accept sole blame for World War I. At that time no one realized that the Treaty of Versailles would start the chain of events that would later on lead to World War II. The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh conditions including forcing Germany to pay huge sums of money to countries that were affected by the war. To meet the vast amount of money imposed by the treaty Germany had to print monstrous amounts of money, which devalued Germany’s currency leading to rampant inflation. It got so bad that a loaf of beard was 6 million marks (Germany’s currency), children played with money in the streets and people burned money to keep warm. This is very historically significant because this was one of the things Hitler promised to demolish once he was the leader of Germany. Hitler was an amazing public speaker and promised he would “tear up the hated treaty of Versailles” and restore Germany to greatness. This is also historically important because every German hated the treaty and voted for Hitler because he promised to demolish it. Also the Treaty of Versailles became the scapegoat for Hitler. He blamed all of German’s problems on the treaty and promising that without it Germany would once again be restored to its former grandeur.
