Why I Chose Adolf HitlerI have chosen Adolf Hitler for my advantage. I always wanted to research about him. Some people tell me that what he did was right. Some say he was a evil leader I want to make this project a opportunity to find out more. Even though I don’t know a lot about Hitler, what I know is that he was a successful leader. I have watched many documentary's about him on discovery history channel. I found out that he fought in WW1. I think he was the most important person since 1900 because he changed how the world is know. He killed many Jews in the holocaust. I would recommend you to read The Diary of Anne frank because it shows a 15 year old girls struggle through the holocaust. I want to make the project to best standard I could offer.
