In 1923 he led a failed rebellion that was proposed to overthrow the Government of the Republic of Weimar, an episode known as the putsh (beat) in Munich. Spent time in jail for it. Business speaker, able to add tens of thousands of people to his party. In 1933 he was appointed chancellor of the Reich and managed to accumulate powers to become the leader of a totalitarian state.
