The Sturmabteilung (SA) was the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party, known for its brown-uniformed members called "Brownshirts," and was founded in 1920 by Adolf Hitler and Ernst Röhm. The SA played a crucial role in Hitler's rise to power through intimidation and violence against political opponents. Its influence declined significantly after 1934, when its leadership was purged by Hitler during the Night of the Long Knives to appease the German military, and the SA was eventually dissolved.
