   Hitler and Roosevelt both took power in 1933. At the time, Germany was suffering from an economic crisis brought on by WWI and the Treaty of Versailles, while the US was suffering from the Great Depression.
   
   Both leaders declared an emergency and requested special powers to repair the economy. The most pressing issue for both countries was unemployment which in 1933 was at 20% Germany and 24.9% in the US.
   
   Through National Socialism, Hitler brought unemployment down to 12.5% in 1934, to 9.6% in 1935, 5.7% in 1936, 2.5% in 1937, then below 1% in 1938, even reaching full employment before the war.
   
   Roosevelt's "New Deal" by contrast reduced employment to 14.3% by 1937, then back up to 19% in 1938, not fully recovering from the depression until after WWII.
