Hitler wanted to be in control because he thought that he could take over Germany and eventualy the rest of the world, in other words he wanted to make a "perfect" world consisting of no Jews, blacks, or gypsis but those are just the main groups.

Germans felt anger over the the Versailles Treaty and Hitler gave them a strong sense of nationalism. He promised jobs and food, which appealed to many because Germany was going through an economic depression as where many countries in Europe during the 1930's. Antisemitism was also present in Germany which Hitler used to his advantage to make non Jewish German citizens blame the Jews for the problems of Germany. After the Nazi Party won the election, Hitler was chosen to be the Chancellor and then with the Enabling Act, he had all the power (legislative and executive).

After World War I, Germany was humiliated and put under harsh restrictions by the Treaty of Versailles (which was written by the then victorious Allied Powers). Germany's military was limited to a certain size, while the German economy collapsed. The value of the German currency, the mark, was so inflated, that in 1923, a pound of bread cost 3 billion marks.

Hitler, a charismatic and passionate speaker, was able to stir the German people's hopes up. He promised that under his leadership, Germany would escape its post-World War I humiliation, and return to becoming a military and economic powerhouse.

First point- Hitler was not universally loved before he became dictator in 1933-34. In the elections in 1932, the Nazi Party only won 32% of the vote. In the elections of March 1933, Hitler was able to abuse an emergency to arrest political opponents and intimidate voters into voting for the Nazis- and they still only got about 44% of the vote.

Those who supported him saw him as a strong leader who would reverse the much-hated Versailles Treaty that blamed World War I on Germany and severely punished them for it. He promised to end the government gridlock which had crippled the German government in the 1920s, and to reverse the effects of the Great Depression. He was a talented demagogue who assigned Germany's problems to socialists, communists, and Jews.

Once in power, he formed alliances with other right-wing parties, and passed a law called the Enabling Act, which gave all government power to himself. With that power in hand, he was able to abolish all other political parties, and reformed the entire government to fit his ideology. A massive Propaganda apparatus was put in place to ensure the loyalty of the people, and an equally massive secret police force to eliminate people who refused to be loyal.
