How did Hitler come to power in a democratic country? To start, the country was weakened by the Weimar government system. Second, Hitler found that the country was looking for a new leader (as a result of the weakened government). Finally, since the country needed help, nobody stopped Hitler from becoming the dictator.
Hitler and the Nazis exploited these things by giving motivating speeches and posting propaganda. His fame was well known, and everyone wanted someone like him in power. He also showed them his troops (sometimes known as the stormtroopers) to show that if anything went wrong he could fight and protect their country.
There reason nobody stood up to Hitler is because they were afraid that they would be killed. Even though it was wrong, everyone was fearful that Hitler and the Nazis would kill them if they spoke up.
