Describe how Jews were discriminated against in Germany from 1933 to 1939.

Once Adolf Hitler had gained complete power of Germany as a dictator in March 1933, he set up policies to bring the country's people 'into line'. His desire to do this was fuelled by the belief that the German people were a superior race above all others, called the Aryans. He also believed that, in order to prosper, Germany needed to be 'purified' by setting the Aryans apart from such inferior races as the Jewish community. …

…Jews because Hitler used force as well as the legal system to prosecute any who opposed him. Hitler pitted himself against all those against the 'Aryan' way of life so Germany could become a 'pure' master state. The Jews were treated extremely unjustly from the very beginning of Hitler's seizure of power and the level of discrimination rose to such a height that it was immensely difficult and virtually impossible to end.
