Adolf Hitler, you would say, was a very, very lucky man throughout his reign as leader of Nazi Germany. There were various conditions that benefited Hitler to his success from 1918-1933, but the the two that stood out to me were when Germany reached Treaty of Versailles in 1919 and the Reichstag fire in 1933. On the date of June 28th, 1919, the treaty of Versailles (named after the building it was signed at) was signed. Years later, people lost their jobs and needed to spend millions of reichsmarks for just one loaf of bread. The economy faced a crisis and Hitler took this as an advantage. There were so many parts of the treaty that the people of Germany faced and hated with passion. They couldn't live life as they used to, and couldn't do anything about it. The Reichstag fire took place in 1933. It was originally the Nazi's who set the building on fire. In Hitler's elections, his motion was to go against the treaty, as well as blaming the communists and other parties. This heightened his fame by a huge increase. Lucky guy, huh?
I agree with you that the two events that stood out were the fire and the Treaty of Versailles. I also enjoyed your topic sentence, it is a good way to start your blog post. There is one mistake that I saw but it is very small, the "t" on treaty is not capitalized. You also said that the fire was started by the Nazi's but no one know who "really" started it. I like the way you ended it with a nice touch.
