How did hitler maintain power? use of ss, propaganda, terror tatics and elimination of opposition update: also: what was the nazi soviet pact-what was it and why was it signed? what was operation barbarossa? bombing of britain, blitzkreig.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Hitler used propaganda, terror tactics, secret police (Gestapo), he outlawed other political parties, and made the army swear personal allegiance to him. The Nazi-Soviet Pact was a 10 year Nonaggression pact that Germany signed with the Soviet Union in 1939 (which Hitler obviously broke a mere 2 years later). "
