Detailed explanation-1: -Nazi Germany cultivated the Führerprinzip ("leader principle"), and Hitler was generally known as just der Führer ("the Leader"). In compound words, the use of “Führer” remains common in German and is used in words such as Bergführer (mountain guide) or Oppositionsführer (leader of the opposition).
Detailed explanation-2: -Hitler’s new status allowed him to achieve his political goals. As a citizen, he could run for office, and by the middle of 1934, power in Germany was entirely his as Führer und Reichskanzler (leader and chancellor).
Detailed explanation-3: -Executive power was vested in the emperor, or Kaiser, who was assisted by a Chancellor responsible only to him.
Detailed explanation-4: -’Fuhrer’ is a German word meaning leader or guide.
