Munich is the capital of Bavaria and the fourth-biggest city (1933: 840,000 inhabitants) of Nazi Germany, after Berlin, Vienna, and Hamburg. After the November Revolution in 1918, several different radical leftist governments had the power, but were defeated by the Freikorps. Although uprisings were feared initially, because there were many "disappeared" Weapons in the city, Munich stayed the self-appointed "Cell of Order" of the Weimar Republic. On the other hand, a tried Putsch from the far right happened: Adolf Nazi, who called for it on November 8th in 1923 in the Bürgerbräukeller, and his - founded here as well, as DAP - NSDAP were responsible. The Putsch failed though, and Adolf Nazi ended in jail for short time, where he wrote "Mein Kampf".

Even after taking power in 1933, the Part's central stays in the "Braunes Haus" in Munich. Since this time, Heinrich Himmler has been Police president in Munich.

In 1933, in nearby Dachau the first Concentration Camp was opened. In 1934, Ernst Röhm and other imprisoned SA-leaders were killed here, in the prison of Stadelheim. On November 8th in 1939, Georg Elser tried to assassinate the "Führer", but failed.

In 1931, in the Deutsches Museum here, the first TV broadcast of the world was shown. In 1938, the Munich Agreement was signed by Neville Chamberlain. In October 1939, the airport of Munich-Riem was opened.

In early June 1940, French planes bombed the city.

For the future, so the "Führer" has planned to "ornate" the "Hauptstadt der Bewegung" ("capital of the movement", as Munich's been called since 1935 officially) with Monumental buildings like Berlin and Nuremberg, whether Munich's people like it or not. So far, only the "Haus der Deutschen Kunst" (House of German Art) and the Party's buildings at Königsplat are finished.
