Original Note:
In Germany in 1933, no single party had a majority. However the Nazi party was the largest with 37.4% of the vote. The Weimar Constitution allowed the President to appoint a Chancellor to govern without a majority, since no party had one, rather than have no government. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/timeline-event/holocaust/1933-1938/hitler-appointed-chancellor
