He was and did, as soon as the war started, unemployment around europe vanished overnight. Actually unemployment vanished in Germany before the outbreak of war.

You would need to be superman to solve a world wide great depression with just keynesian economics .. or any legal economic theory for that matter.

Impossible "What if" Scenario" he already wrote that he will gain "Living space in the east" when he wrote "Mein Kampf" wayback in Jail in Landsberg 1924.
No way that such a "What if" scenario ever would have happenend.
Read that crapbook and you will find a timeline for the later war including the final solution, the Anschluss of Austria etc.
The only things he didin't expect was France and the Empire to fight for Poland and that he had to declare war against the USA because of his treaty with the Japanese.

A Hitler without his ideological pet crusade against the Soviet Union wouldn't be the historical figure Hitler. Besides, I think it would have been a question of time only until the red and the brown wolf would have turned against each other. Both followed ideologies which contained ideas of "world dominance" so a clash of the two systems was "systemic" and therefor inevitable.

Good question! But that also wouldn't have happenend because nobody took him for serious. Not to forget that antisemitism was very common back that days not only in Germany.

And what if the people of Iran stood up against their leaders Aryan roots? That would be cool but it's not happening. The word Iran is the Persian word for land/place of the Aryan.

What if... Hitler had have been accepted into the art school he so cherished, instead of the path taken?

What if the French hadn't imposed ruinous, vindictive conditions on the Germans after WW1? (They were already starving for god's sake so what more did they want) What if the European nations had owned up to a shared responsibility for the outbreak of WW1? What if Britain had stayed out of the War and left it to the continental powers to resolve?
