Germany was hit particularly hard during the American Great Depression. The reason being was that America was a major source of loans for Germany's reparations after WW1. When Hitler came to power as the Chancellor of Germany, he incited the entire country into a nationalistic rage and establishing a totalitarian single party state, with the support of the Nazi Party.
The Great Depression led to severe economic hardship in Germany, prompting a rise in extremist political parties like the Nazis. With widespread unemployment and public discontent, Hitler was appointed Chancellor in 1933, allowing him to establish a totalitarian state. This transition fundamentally changed Germany's political landscape, marking the rise of dictatorship and the Nazi regime.
