Germany was humiliated by the outcome of WWI. They were forced to take full blame for the war, and it had destroyed their economy. Adolf Hitler was a fanatic politician who was attempting to gain power. He manipulated Germany's feelings by telling them that their hard times would soon be all over. He promised more jobs, better economy-- basically a new Germany. The people, desperate and depressed, eagerly ate up his words and looked forward to being a proud nation again...
If your country was in a similar situation, and someone came along who promised to fix it all in exchange for your allegiance, would you follow him? Even if it meant sometimes turning a blind eye to things he did that might seem a little... off? Write about that.
