history millions of innocent people were killed killed in camps by 1944 Germany started losing the war adolf's enemies like the United States the Soviet Union and Britain were too strong bombs fell on German cities and the people who once called Adolf a hero began to lose hope Adolf became paranoid he trusted no one and spent most of his time hiding in his bunker by 194 four Adolf Hitler's dreams of ruling the world were falling apart his army which once seemed Unstoppable was now losing battles everywhere the Soviet Union one of his biggest enemies pushed the
German Army back from the East at the same time American and British soldiers attacked from the West German cities were bombed day and night families lost their homes and the people began to turn against Adolf why did we follow him many asked but Adolf didn't give up he sat in his bunker giving orders to his generals we will not surrender he shouted but deep inside even Adolf knew the war was lost in early 1945 Adolf stayed in a bunker deep underground in Berlin the bunker was cold and dark but it was safe from bombs inside
Adolf spent his his time planning though there was little hope left he was not alone his most loyal followers were with him including his girlfriend Ava Brown Ava had been by his side for many years though Adolf kept their relationship private she loved him even in his Darkest Days outside the bunker the sound of gunfire grew louder every day the Soviet Army was getting closer to Berlin the end is near whispered his advisers leaders from other countries begged Adolf to surrender save the people of Germany they said but Adolf refused he believed surrender was a
sign of weakness if Germany loses it is because the people were not strong enough he said coldly by April 1945 Berlin was surrounded the Soviet Army attacked the city from all sides buildings collapsed fires burned and people ran for their lives on April 29th 1945 Adolf made a surprising decision he married Ava Brown in the bunker it was a simple ceremony with just a few people you've always been by my side Ava Adolf said Ava smiled even though she knew this was not a happy moment after the wedding Adolf and Ava spent hours together talking
about their lives and what they had done they both knew the end was near on April 30th 1945 Adolf made his final decision he called his closest followers Into the Bunker and told them I will not be captured alive Adolf believed it was better to die than to let his enemies take him he and Eva went to a small room moments later they took their own lives Adolf was 56 years old when the Soviet soldiers reached the bunker they found Adolf and Eva's bodies the war in Europe ended shortly after Germany surrendered on May 8th
