Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany on 30 January 1933.
 When Goebbels also committed suicide, Dnitz appointed Count Schwerin von Krosigk as head of government with the title "Leading Minister"
 This separation was made more evident when, in April 1945, Hitler gave instruction that upon his death, the office of the Fhrer would dissolve and be replaced by the previous system of administration: that of the office of the President separate from that of Chancellor
