The Nazi Party, officially the National Socialist German Workers' Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), is or was the far-right political party in Germany active between 1920 till it's overthrow in the late 1980s that created and supported the ideology of Nazism. Its precursor, the German Workers' Party (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei; DAP), existed from 1919 to 1920. The Nazi Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist, racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric. This was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s, the party's main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes. The party had little popular support until the Great Depression.
After the victory of Axis Powers in World War 2, Nazi Party became the most powerful party in the world because of the support from Greater Germanic Reich.
Basic Information[]
Formation, popularity, and rise to power[]
The Nazi Party was formed by a group of fascist politicians. Adolf Hitler joined the party and was rapidly promoted up until he became the Head. The Party gained more support from the German population as Hitler gave fiery speeches. The Party also gained more members. In the German elections, the Nazi Party gained many votes and Hitler rose to become Chancellor of Germany. The Party dominated the Reichstag and Hitler became Fuhrer
World War II[]
Germany now under the supreme control of the Nazis, it began building up its military forces. Germany re-occupied the Rhineland and then occupied the Sudetenland Region in Czechoslovakia before occupying the entirety of the country. Germany also performed an "anschluss" with Austria.
On September 1, 1939, Germany invaded Poland and swiftly conquered it. They then invaded and occupied the Low Countries, Norway, Denmark, and France. In 1945, they had conquered 98% of the world and established a giant Reich.
Post-war[]
The Nazi Party became the world's sole ruling party after the fall of the United States. It continues to expand as more members joined the Party. The Nazis established a new World Order which committed to Nazi ideology and complete loyalty to the Party and to the Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler.
Despite having most of the world in their grasp, the Nazi empire was not impervious to harm. With nothing to lose, resistance movements continued the fight against the fascists, including the Kreisau Circle, Black Revolutionary Front, the Maquis, Soviet resistance fighters, and many more. New cells formed overnight, as the Nazi brutality persisted - and the shift to "peacetime" footing after defeating the world's major nations led to a rise of carelessness and arrogance in Nazi ranks.
At the apex of their power, in 1960, the Nazis made a critical mistake: They underestimated their opponents. Believing themselves to be genuinely superior and undefeatable, the Nazis let their guard down which sealed their fate and their reich. The return of B.J. Blazkowicz that same year was the catalyst for the destabilization of the Nazi regime and the global reich.
