tag group:nazi germany
Nazi Germany refers to the far-right government of Germany under the National Socialist German Worker's Party (π©πͺ: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbr. NSDAP), from the appointment of Adolf Hitler as Chancellor in 1933 to its capitulation to the Allied Powers in 1945, ending the Second World War in Europe. Through a combination of cooking the books and mass theft of Jewish assets, the Nazis rapidly built up a war economy with which to wage genocide against Eastern Europe before getting their teeth kicked in by most of the world. Intended to last a thousand years, today its only enduring legacies are the Autobahn, Volkswagen, and (literally depending on your taste) Fanta.
