Because much of the propaganda surrounding Hitler has to do with his character as a child, it has been difficult for scholars to uncover the real truth concerning Hitler’s abilities and behaviors when he was a very young man.

Many people have argued about Hitler’s religious background and whether or not he was in fact a Catholic. While it cannot be proven conclusively one way or the other in the case of Hitler, it is known that his father, Alois, was Catholic and many other members of his family also professed the faith.

As far as anyone knows, Adolf Hitler did not have any biological children. Hitler himself wanted to give Germans the idea that he was the father of the nation and therefore the father of all Germans equally.

Propaganda was one of the most important forces that allowed the Nazi Party to retain control over the German people and to spread their campaign of death and destruction all across Europe. Propaganda was, in fact, one of the first functions that Hitler established when he became the chancellor of Germany in 1933.

For much of the early events leading up to World War II, Hitler and Stalin were considered to be allies. Stalin had recently become leader of the new Soviet state and thought of himself as being “threatened on all sides” by capitalist states. The Soviet leadership was also extremely worried about loyalists who had escaped from Russia and who, with aristocratic ties to others across the continent, might be able to motivate another nation to attack Russia.
