When Hitler rose to power, the economic and social conditions of Germany were very unstable. The German currency was losing its value. The constitution had many flaws that could help any dictator to rise to power. Hitler was benefitted by these. He promised better life conditions and increased wages to people. People seemed liked him before he ordered mass killing of some special groups of people. Even after the mass killing order, many still liked him because their life conditions were increasing. They were allowed to rake the property of the people of the occupied lands.

Hitler pledged to restore prosperity, create civil order (by crushing industrial strikes and street demonstrations by communists and socialists), eliminate the influence of Jewish financiers, and make the fatherland once again a world power.
