Hitler Named Chancellor

After Hitler lost the presidential election to Hinderburg, he decided to request the seat of chancellor several times until Hindenburg gave in, but each time he was refused the seat. Instead Hindenburg chose Papen to be his chancellor, but soon after Papen is named chancellor he resigns and the seat is turned over to Scleicher. With Schleicher as chancellor and Hitler's ally, he decides to persuade the president to agree to Hitlers demands. At this time Germany's government is still in a crisis with the Geat Depression and the Republic is starting to decline, and since none of Hindenburg's chancellors are able to fix the government, Hitler is looked at as Germany's last hope. After a rumor breaks out about Schleicher trying to arrest Hindenburg and take over the government, the chancellor is soon kicked out of office. With the old, tired president in a bind he decides that Hitler is the only hope for saving Germany. In 1933 Adolf Hitler is named the new Chancellor of Germany.
