The Nazi Party was a political party in
Germany, founded in 1919 by Anton Drexler. At first it was called "The German Worker's Party".
When Hitler later took over the party, helped by his oratorical skills, he renamed the party the NSDAP (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeitpartei), meaning National Socialist
Germany Workers' Party.
Later on the Great Depression helped the Nazi come to power in 1933.
Paul von Hindenburg, the president at the
time, appointed Hitler Chancellor of
Germany on January 30th 1933. Within 3 months, he had assumed dictatorial powers.
Hence, the Nazi Party is indeed what Hitler used, and what helped him to gain power and wage war across the globe.
