And that is what Hitler wants.

When the Reichstag building is set on fire by a communist,

Hitler seizes the opportunity...

Hitler declares communists state enemies and organises new elections, using propaganda and terror.

the S.A. (Sturm Abteilung) = nazis in uniforms.

They arrest communists and intimidate voters

Reichstag elections March 1933

To strengthen his power, Hitler needed to get rid of "critical" members of his own S.A. (sturmabteilung)

Hitler did not want to share any power.

Hitler turns to his elite bodyguard troops: the SS to help him 

During the "Night of the Long Knives" the SA is purged by the SS.

Hitler claims he has prevented an "SA coup".

Two months later president Hindenburg dies.

that of "president" into a new title: FÜHRER
