Although the birth of Hitler was not a specific part of American History, Hitlers birth was a very important part of world history that America was very much a part of. Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 in Braunau Am Inn, a small Austrian village very close to the German border. Hitler would go on to become the Fuhrer of Germany and attempt to conquer Europe and exterminate the Jews. Eventually the United States would have to get involved in the World War and this was a huge impact on the nation. For this reason, Hitlers birth is important in the history of the world and the history of the USA.
