Anschluss 1938 (Stephen)

  • Round 1!

    Hitler tries to invade Austria. he does not succeed, but assassinates the Chancellor, Engelbert Dolfuss
  • Resistance from Scussnigg

    Hitler demanded 10 things from Schussnigg- one of these was that a Nazi was made Minister of the Interior. this would have given Germany power over the Austrain police force. Schusnigg decided that instead he would hold a plescibite to see whether the Austrian people wanted a free Austria or whether they wanted to coalate with Germany.
  • How Dare You!

    How Dare You!
    Hitler hears of Schussnigg's plecibite and hits the roof. He gives Schussnigg an ultimatum- resign or the Nazis take Austria by force!
  • I'm Gone

    Schussnigg is forced to resign from his post after creating a PLESCIBITE to see if Austria wanted to form with Germany.
  • We're Coming to Get You!!!

    We're Coming to Get You!!!
    Hitler and the Nazis invade Austria, with little resistance from the local people
  • You have decided (with a little manipulation...)

    the results of the plecibite are manipulated by the Nazis to make it seem as though 99% of the Austrian population wanted the coalition with Germany. However, Jerwish people and Roma (gypsies) were not allowed to vote
