Hitler"s goals and methods: destroy the limitations imposed by the treaty of versailles and of the locarno. He managed to create deep divisions in his enemies: use his government"s influence over ethnic german groups in neighbouring countries to promote his policies. Do this by urging restraint and aggression at different periods. Major initiatives and turning points: october 1933. Withdrawal from disarmament talks and the league of nations. In a plebiscite on the decision to leave the league in which 96% of voters participated, 95% approved the decision. Germany did not agree to this: the league wanted germany to limit their weapons but did not limit the weapons of other nations. Hitler used this as an inequality argument: january 1934.
