<em>The United States devise the Marshall Plan, which gave about $13 billion in grants and loans to nations in Western Europe to provide food to reduce famine, fuel to heat houses and factories, and money to jump-start economic growth.</em>
The European Recovery Program or Marshall Plan sent help to Western European countries after the destruction and consequences generated by World War II. Secretary of State George C.Marshall drafted the plan that sent almost $14 billion dollars to reconstruct cities, provide food to reduce famine, fuel to heat houses and factories, and money to jump-start economic growth in Western Europe. The plan also was intended to stop any help from the Soviet Union that wanted to spread Communism in different parts of Europe.
The answer is the appeal of Hitler and the Nazi Party. Hitler made promises to the people that gave them new hope in the face of the economic crisis. His Nazi Party used propaganda and the media very carefully. This attracted people to their ideals. Therefore, the Nazi Party and Hitler became popular due to their appeal.
