Hitler

He probably started developing his anti-Semitic views in Vienna, during his time living on the dole as a failed artist. I suppose he started politicising those views when he started infiltrating the National Socialist party, before eventually joining and rising through the ranks - this was during the early 1920s.
Google 'Thule Society'...
yes, but thats when he decided hed rather kill 6 million jews instead.
Well actually I think that was when he just ponced about on the streets for a while before joining the army before infiltrating a political party and then realising that he could use politics (after a failed putsch) to take control, and what better way to gain popularity than to create a great big scapegoat i.e. the jews and the good side effect (in HIS opinion) was that six million of them were exterminated.
What's the difference between the ruler of Germany and the Nazi party?
Although the Jewish question receives frequent attention, in actuality it was a minor part of the Fuhrer's real ambitions; it was a rather supplementary course to keep the extremist partisans happy and supportive.
The Jews and the genocide have received mas histrical attention, and its endogenous connection to Hitler has borne most of it. In fact, mass murder was never on his agenda, and it didnt make any economic sense either, clear suspicion now points toward the other ardent anti-semites who perhaps orchastrated the operation, while Hiter gave his passive consent like so many projects in the NSDAP.

What's the difference between the ruler of Germany and the Nazi party?
I'm guessing you're referring to the President. There was a president of Germany (Bismarck) up until a year after Hitler was elected as Chancellor. After his death, Hitler consolidated the Presidency and Chancellorship into one role - Fuhrer.
Im just going to expand on some of the things you've already mentioned in your paragraph and state which things i disagree with, im an undergrad reading History and Politics btw.
The question is, 'why did the Holocaust happen?' not 'describe Hitlers rise to power'. At KS3 level for the introduction, you should be introducing the reader to what happened, mention Hitler blaming the Jews for WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles, mention anti-semetic propaganda, mention the Nuremburg laws of 1935, Krystallnacht 1938, the Wannsee Conference of 1942 and the implementation of the Final Solution. Then move on to the reasons why, 1. Need for a scapegoat, 2. The anti-semitism of Hitler and the German upper classes, 3. The determination of Hitler underlings to gain favour with Hitler. 4. Hitlers unstable personality.
Hope tht helped a little

I'm writing an essay on - "Why did the Holocaust happen?" (I'm in year 9 btw)
And I've started like this:
There are many reasons for why the HolocaustThe mass murder of Jews happened we all know what the Holocaust was so you dont need to say it was the mass murder of the Jews furthermore the Holocaust was not only the murder of Jews but also of Gypsy's, Gays, Slavic People and the disabled but one of the key reasons was Hitler's personality and experience, ive changed the wording here as the grammar was a little shaky before. Hitler joined the German army in World War 1.Earning the Iron Cross and participating as a trench runner. He was then blinded by a British Mustard Gas attack and was treated in a hospital in Germany. During his recovery, Germany surrendered and lost the battle of World War 1. Hitler was then furious as well as extremely depressed, we dont know this for certain, he may have written this to drum up support for destroying the Treaty of Versailles, I would argue that like much of Europe, Hitler was probably war weary.. He was elected to become the leader of the Nazi Party in 1921 He really assumed control of the NSDAP in 1921 rather than was elected, the party was a shambles of conflicting ideology and bankrupt (this is all according to Hitler himself by the way, Mein Kampf Vol 2 Chapter 11). Hitler then persuaded the people of Germany into electing him to become the leader of Germany in 1933. Hitler convinced Germany to vote for the NSDAP however it was Hindenburg that appointed him Chancellor and the Enabling Act of January 1934 that made him Fuhrer. Hitler promised the people of Germany that he would make Germany a better place and he would offer more jobs. So, Hitler was victorious with the most votes.

Standard structuralist argument. The Final Solution was really the brainchild of Reynhard Heydrich.

Bismarck was Chancellor of Germany from 1870-1890, he was never President, I think you are getting confused. Hindenburg was President of the Weimar Republic.
Why did the Holocaust happen? – Essay
There are many reasons for why the Holocaust/ The mass murder of Jews happened, but one of the key reasons is because of Hitler.
Hitler joined the German army in World War 1. He was then blinded by a British Mustard Gas attack and was treated in a hospital in Germany. During his recovery, Germany surrendered and lost the battle of World War 1. Hitler was then furious as well as extremely depressed. He believed that the Jews were the cause for the Germany losing the war. He also believed that the reason that many Germans were poor was because of the Jews. He was elected to become the leader of the Nazi Party in 1921 because he was a very powerful and convincing public speaker. Hitler convinced the people of Germany to vote for the NSDAP however it was Hindenburg that appointed him Chancellor and the Enabling Act of January 1934 that made him Fuhrer. Hitler promised the people of Germany that he would make Germany a better place and he would offer more jobs. Many people in Germany at the time would vote for anyone or do absolutely anything for wealth. So, Hitler was victorious with the most votes.
Hitler started to take action against the Jews: ‘1933: Jewish doctors, shops, lawyers and stores boycotted’, ‘1935: Jews forbidden to join the Armed Forces’, ‘1935: Marriage between any Jew and non-Jew banned’, ‘1936: Jews were banned from all professional jobs’, ‘1938: Kristallnacht – Jewish shops smashed’, this shows Hitler’s hatred towards the Jews. Hitler then told cafe owners to put up signs saying ‘NO JEWS ALLOWED’. The cafe owners would put it up but would still let the Jews go in. If they never put the signs up, they would be punished. The cafe owners would sometimes turn the signs to face the walls whilst Jewish customers were inside, this shows that not everyone hated/blamed the Jews. Some people believed that Hitler was wrong, but was just too weak/scared to say anything. Eventually, nearly all of the Jewish rights were taken away.
The Holocaust was taken to the next level by setting up concentration camps. There were ’22: The number of concentration camps in Europe’. Jew’s were sent to concentration camps to be gassed up/killed and then burned. ‘6 million: The number of Jews who died’. The holocaust which Hitler created was successful because it was done in secret during WW2. ‘The German government used codes to describe the extermination of the Jews’, so only the German government understood what was going on. Since the holocaust happened during WW2, the soldiers who killed the Jews were desensitised by the war.
This is my essay so far.
