Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The global economic crisis, particularly the Great Depression that began in 1929, dramatically increased Adolf Hitler's popularity in Germany. The economic hardship, unemployment, and social unrest made the German population more receptive to Hitler's promises of economic recovery, national rejuvenation, and strong leadership, contributing significantly to his rise to power.
