He also served as the last commander of <a href="/wiki/Jagdgeschwader_1_(World_War_I)" class="mw-redirect" title="Jagdgeschwader 1 (World War I)"><i>Jagdgeschwader</i> 1</a> (JG I), the fighter wing once led by <a href="/wiki/Manfred_von_Richthofen" title="Manfred von Richthofen">Manfred von Richthofen</a>. An early member of the Nazi Party, Göring was among those wounded in <a href="/wiki/Adolf_Hitler" title="Adolf Hitler">Adolf Hitler</a>'s failed <a href="/wiki/Beer_Hall_Putsch" title="Beer Hall Putsch">Beer Hall Putsch</a> in 1923. While receiving treatment for his injuries, he developed an addiction to <a href="/wiki/Morphine" title="Morphine">morphine</a> which persisted until the last year of his life. After Hitler became <a href="/wiki/Chancellor_of_Germany" title="Chancellor of Germany">Chancellor of Germany</a> in 1933, Göring was named as <a href="/wiki/Minister_without_portfolio" title="Minister without portfolio">minister without portfolio</a> in the new government. One of his first acts as a cabinet minister was to oversee the creation of the <a href="/wiki/Gestapo" title="Gestapo">Gestapo</a>, which he ceded to <a href="/wiki/Heinrich_Himmler" title="Heinrich Himmler">Heinrich Himmler</a> in 1934. </p><p>Following the establishment of the Nazi state, Göring amassed power and political capital to become the second most powerful man in Germany. He was appointed commander-in-chief of the <i><a href="/wiki/Luftwaffe" title="Luftwaffe">Luftwaffe</a></i> (air force), a position he held until the final days of the regime.

In September 1939, Hitler gave a speech to the <span title="German-language text"><i lang="de">Reichstag</i></span> designating him as his successor. After the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_France" title="Battle of France">Fall of France</a> in 1940, he was bestowed the specially created rank of <span title="German-language text"><i lang="de"><a href="/wiki/Reichsmarschall" title="Reichsmarschall">Reichsmarschall</a></i></span>, which gave him seniority over all officers in <a href="/wiki/Wehrmacht" title="Wehrmacht">Germany's armed forces</a>. </p><p>By 1941, Göring was at the peak of his power and influence.

Informed on 22 April 1945 that Hitler intended to commit suicide, Göring sent <a href="/wiki/G%C3%B6ring_telegram" title="Göring telegram">a telegram to Hitler</a> requesting his permission to assume leadership of the Reich. Considering his request an act of treason, Hitler removed Göring from all his positions, expelled him from the party, and ordered his arrest. </p><p>After the war, Göring was convicted of <a href="/wiki/Conspiracy" title="Conspiracy">conspiracy</a>, <a href="/wiki/Crimes_against_peace" class="mw-redirect" title="Crimes against peace">crimes against peace</a>, <a href="/wiki/War_crime" title="War crime">war crimes</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Crimes_against_humanity" title="Crimes against humanity">crimes against humanity</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Nuremberg_trials" title="Nuremberg trials">Nuremberg trials</a> in 1946.
