Chapter 762: Leo Szilard

While Australasia and the United Kingdom were discussing how to control world oil prices, Germany, also located in Europe, was far from peaceful at that time.

Italy, with a similar regime, was engaged in a glorious colonial war, which made Hitler, who also wanted to expand his own territory, green with envy.

But the problem was, Hitler, having just become the German Chancellor, had not yet fully grasped power. The first thing he had to do was to eliminate other political parties in Germany that opposed his rule, as well as former government officials.

Although purging political parties and government officials could allow him to control more power, it would also unite other parties to fight back through civilian public opinion.

Hitler's first move was to have his subordinates submit a bill to Congress that directly magnified his and his party's power, which even allowed him to enact and amend the laws of the German Empire without Congress approval.
