From 1933 to 1945, Germany was ruled with an iron fist by Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party. They eventually used Refuge in Audacity to execute millions of people they found undesirable, with about half (using the 12 million death figure) being Jewish, the rest being various other groups that often got picked on in Europe: political prisoners (especially communists), gay people (along with other perceived sexual deviants), Romani, Slavs, Jehovah's Witnesses, disabled and mentally ill people, etc. The Nazis were also one of the primary drivers in starting the most destructive war in human history, which killed even more people. (Estimates range from 40 to 80 million, based on what you include. Typically reported as the midpoint, 60 million.) Under Nazi control, the German military committed widespread atrocities across Europe, from soldiers partaking in looting, burning, and killing civilians throughout occupied territory, to pilots strafing crowds of fleeing refugees. The result is that they are considered by everyone (including both Western and Soviet history) to be one of the most evil groups of people that ever lived, and therefore easy and acceptable to make look bad. Even prior to World War II, the Nazis were easy targets for political satire. For that reason, ever since then, people have created villains who are clearly analogous to the Nazis. These pseudo-Nazis can generally range from sympathetic people who got swept up in the chaos to a simplified bunch of Psychos for Hire who joined the army simply so they can massacre inferior races. While the former is better depth-wise, making these Nazis By Any Other Name too sympathetic can result in a Draco in Leather Pants. Common elements include a black- or brown-uniformed paramilitary political force with simple geometric emblems on their arms, centering on one person as the supreme leader heavily guarded by black-shirted longcoat-wearing minions. Their ideology typically consists of the leader constantly shrieking, "We are the Master Race/Species! We will reign supreme! We will crush all who oppose us! All inferiors shall submit or/and die! Hail Victory!" To that end, they will commit the most hideous of crimes in a heartbeat, and the only thing that will get them to stop is unyielding force; if the story can't or doesn't want to emphasize physical violence, Book Burning will often be spotlighted instead. In fact, if the Nazis didn't exist, they'd have to be invented. Without actually being grateful for Nazis, hundreds of films, books, and other works would not be the same if they had not been their reference and inspiration. Of course, since the Nazis themselves stole symbolism, slogans, and rituals from other historical sources (and racism looooong predates their existence), much of what is associated with them today is actually far Older Than They Think. (In some cases, such as with the Non-Nazi Swastika, the symbols may even have had a perfectly innocent connotation before the Nazis got their dirty hands on it.) So a few examples commonly given merely reflect generic totalitarian, cult-of-personality, and/or dictatorship elements. Manga, Anime, and other forms of Japanese entertainment will also borrow from Imperial Japan: for example, the killing of surrendering soldiers, or attempts to stamp out culture. Further justification for this trope in more recent years has been the outlawing of Nazi swastikas and related imagery in Germany and other places, leading to the use of similar-looking symbols that were not previously associated with fascism. Any strong German ruler (Frederick the Great, Bismarck, Barbarossa, Merkelnote ironic because actual neo-Nazis hate her...) or right-wing German political movement (any one) is at risk of getting this treatment, especially in works from 1970 to 1990. A subtrope of Fictional Political Party and Does This Remind You of Anything?. Compare with Putting on the Reich, Scary Dogmatic Aliens, and Space Jews. Compare and contrast with Gratuitous Nazis, where actual Nazis are used (where one wouldn't expect to find them) just to have some villains that can be instantly identified as evil. Visit the scenic Reichstropen for more about Those Wacky Nazis and their imitators. For empire builders who consider themselves inherently superior to all other races/nations, but don't necessarily partake of other Nazi ideology or imagery, see Master Race. Similar imperialists who exploit the local people may also fall under Evil Colonialist. And if they're Played for Laughs, that's Adolf Hitlarious. See Commie Nazis for an evil political party that borrows elements (including just symbolic elements) from both the Nazis and the Communists (especially the Soviet Union). Conversely, comparing someone unfairly to Hitler or Nazis is well known as a violation of Godwin's Law. Truth in Television given the existence of Neo-Nazism, but No Real Life Examples, Please! Referring to any individual, Real Life group, or movement, as this will cause a massive Flame War. Also remember that eating sugar does not make one Hitler. noreallife |

Terminator: Skynet and the machines' rule are pretty much the future version of Nazi Germany. In the first film, Kyle Reese has a barcode tattoo that is similar in vein to the numbered tattoos that prisoners received in Nazi concentration camps, and in Salvation, Kyle Reese and several other humans are being placed in what is unmistakably an extermination camp. | |

Terrible Writing Advice often advises writers to base their villains off of Nazi Germany. Given the tendency of the series to use Stylistic Suck, it's mocking the over-use of this trope. In the "Evil Empires" episode, the reason he advises basing the empire off of Nazi Germany is because if you chose a different historical empire like Ancient Rome, that would require opening up a history book and actually doing research, which is always discouraged because that requires effort. The "Grimdark" episode also advises basing the bad guys off of Nazi Germany, but then proceeds to show a list of empires and how long they lasted, pointing out that Nazi Germany lasted for a bit over a decade, which is nothing compared to empires like the Ottoman and Roman empires, which lasted for centuries. | |

The web serial Worm has two such organizations. The Empire 88 (with the 88 standing for "HH" or "Heil Hitler") employs neo-Nazi beliefs with the superiority of the White (rather than Aryan) race run by a man who styles himself Kaiser. Gelleshaft however is far more sinister, a Nazi-inspired group that has its home base in Germany. They are not shy about exerting their influence or lending superhumans to others in order to further the cause. | |

The Last Son features the mutant-hating group of the Friends of Humanity as recurring adversaries of the heroes. Captain America straightly tells Graydon Creed that his bigotry is the kind that died out when Hitler committed suicide, or should have, at least. Interestingly invoked by General Zod when he is accused for being "another racist tyrant" by Magneto; however, Zod states that his comparison to Hitler is inaccurate because while Hitler's claim to supremacy was based on pseudoscience, whereas Zod has the might of an entire civilization behind him. | |

In the Archie Sonic fanverse series Dimensional Wars, the New Order faction is introduced as a darker path of what Moebius could become if King Scourge was forced off the throne and what the result would be with an interdimensional and interplanetary war between the prime world and Moebius. While not as technically advanced as the forces of the Egg Empire, the Moebian soldiers are known to be at least better trained than Eggman's usual lackeys, and they put on the Reich in spades. You have Moebian dogs mentally conditioned by dog whistles to attack with more ferocity when ordered, Wehrmacht like tactics and training, black Nazi like helmets, and the kicker? The Order openly supports genocide and interment of the 'rodents' of both worlds (echidnas who are hated for being allied to Eggman, and hedgehogs for being heroes normally in the Sonic fandom). However, unlike the Nazis the Order doesn't believe in harming the disabled, and both male and female soldiers have specific tasks on the battlefield. | |

In TOKYO TRIBE 2, the NEO WU-RONZ, after nearly taking over a majority of Tokyo, becomes the "Skunk Empire", named after its leader and former underling of Mera. The outfits of the Skunk Empire members are reminiscent of Nazi uniforms, with the kana "?" in place of the swastika. Even Skunk, who grew a mustache over the course of two episodes, dresses very similarly to Hitler during his reign as the leader of the Skunk Empire. Averted as the soldiers have little loyalty to Skunk, and more to Mera and Buppa/Bubba (depending on translation) - shown when Skunk orders his soldiers to fight the resisting Tribes who were not destroyed/amalgated into the Skunk Empire after Buppa/Bubba died. They tore their armbands off after receiving that command and moved against Skunk - and all the other Tribes did too. Also, they stopped fighting after hearing Buppa/Bubba died. |

Bluebeard (1972) provides an odd example, due in part to its observance of No Swastikas. For all intents and purposes, it's set during the Nazi era — the characters have Germanic names, one scene depicts an anti-Jewish pogrom, Hitler and Reinhard Heydrich are even mentioned by name — yet the setting is never explicitly identified as Germany. | |

Bleach: Yhwach, The Emperor of the Vandenreich, an empire of Quincies with a German aesthetic. His Sternritter wear uniforms that bear resemblance to the apparel worn by SS personnel. The four Sternritter chosen to serve as his elite guard are called the Schutzstaffel, sharing the name of the paramilitary organization that served under Adolf Hitler. Six years prior to the start of the series, Yhwach enacted a purge on all Quincies of mixed blood, or Quincies he deemed "impure" in order to empower himself. | |

Done comedically with the organization ACROSS in Excel♡Saga. Characters regularly shout "Hail Il Palazzo" while doing the Roman salute to their leader. Though otherwise ACROSS does not share much with Nazism, besides a desire to Take Over the World. In the anime, you can actually briefly see twin swastikas in Excel's eyes as she vocally expresses her loyalty in the first episode. | |

Played for laughs in The Big Lebowski, when Walter continuously assumes that the gang of German ruffians who constantly harass the Dude are Nazis. Even after the Dude corrects him that they're not Nazis, they're nihilists, Walter seems hesitant to let go of the idea, and later on accuses one of them of being an antisemite. | |

There is a shot of Trade Federation battle droids marching through an archway on Naboo in The Phantom Menace that is modeled on a famous shot of Nazi troops marching through the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. It's specifically mentioned (though not shown) that the citizens of Naboo captured during the invasion were taken to Trade Federation concentration camps. And then there's the fact that little resistance is shown in the capital city when the battle droids arrive, evocative of (the story claiming that) French soldiers simply dropping their weapons and surrendering when the Nazis skirted around the Maginot Line. And Amidala leaving Naboo only to return later to take back control is similar to many European monarchs doing the same thing during World War II. | |

In the Dutch series Alfred J. Kwak, which features humanized animals, the main character's nemesis is named Dolf. He founds a party called National Crows, he takes power by staging a fascist-style coup, and while he proclaims himself Emperor and dresses in Napoleonic style, he's obviously a satire of Hitler. Oh, and he grows a characteristic mustache. Dolf also tries to enforce "racial purity" while he himself, like Hitler, is hardly up such standard - he's the son of a crow and a blackbird. Calling Dolf, well, Dolf was considered too much in Germany, in fact, where the character went by the name Kraa instead. | |

In Linkara's review of Secret Empire, he spends a good portion of the beginning calling out people who would try to say that HYDRA are not Nazis by pointing out they the organization uses Nazi tactics, worked with the Nazis, its founder and many of their employees were Nazis and that all HYDRA needed to really do was do a find-replace on a Nazi pamphlet replacing "Nazi" with "HYDRA". | |

V for Vendetta: Norsefire is essentially the British version of the Nazi Party, complete with a Hitler-esque leader in Adam Sutler (he even has a very similar mustache plus last name), a swastika-like cross symbol, genocidal persecution of LGBT people and religious minorities (in their case Muslims instead of Jews, at least that we see), concentration camps and brutal feared secret police. They also came into power as the result of a crisis which they'd engineered, not unlike some claims about the real Reichstag Fire, which helped the Nazi Party take over. | |

Amestris, the country in which Fullmetal Alchemist takes place (probably the best anime example of this trope), is a military nation where the standard — or you might say, the preferred look is blonde hair and blue eyes, ruled by a "Führer" who in the past sought to exterminate an ethnic group living within the borders, distinguishable by their facial features and monotheistic religion. Amestris is, however, rather more like post-World War II Germany, what with the aforementioned "Ishval Civil War" having been a horrible PR catastrophe and most modern Amestrians behaving extremely apologetically towards surviving Ishvalans. The leader who initiated the genocide is somehow still seated in power and continues to uphold a destructive Lebensraum policy, but it helps when you're a superpowered Artificial Human backed by a truly ancient and sinister Government Conspiracy. This is a somewhat unusual example in that Amestris is mainly inspired by Industrial Revolution-era Britain, and the Ishvalans are based on the Ainu people, but it manages to look like a parallel to Nazi Germany anyway. | |

Dune: Part Two: Some of the visuals outright depict the army of House Arkonnen in a very similar fashion to the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany. Also, them trying to invade a foreign culture and Rabban Arkonnen calling people of said culture "rats" drives the Nazi similarities home. | |

The Golan Army from Fist of the North Star is a gang composed mainly of surviving members of a special forces unit whose leader (a man known only as "The Colonel") seeks to create Godland, a nation for "the chosen people" (also drawing some parallels with Israel). They do so by kidnapping young fertile women, killing their friends and family in the process, in order to breed a generation of superior children with their soldiers. This aspect is downplayed in the anime, where the gang is renamed "God's Army" and is turned into a subordinate organization of the Kingsmen (the enemy faction that Kenshiro faced in another story arc of the manga), with the Colonel being rewritten into a deluded follower of Shin. | |

Paranoia parodies this (among other things) in one module, where the hapless schmucks (Troubleshooters) become hapless smershoviks (Commie troubleshooters), in a Friend Computer-engineered experiment to see what all the fuss with Communism was all about. In this alternate Alpha Complex, the equivalent to the Commies are the "NazCIA", pronounced "Not-CIA", and a mix of the worst (read: cheesiest) Nazi stereotypes melded with the worst (read: cheesiest) CIA stereotypes. Though the fact Registered Mutants have to wear yellow armbands pointing them out as such does play this trope somewhat straight. |

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney): As Minister of Justice in Paris, Judge Claude Frollo makes it his personal mission to persecute the Romani people of the city by arresting them on (often) drummed-up charges and sending his thuggish guards to harass them. There is a chilling scene where he compares "taking care of the gypsies" to squashing ants, with the ultimate goal being to find the Court of Miracles, their safe haven in the city, and crushing the "nest". The filmmakers cited Ralph Fiennes' portrayal of Amon Goeth in Schindler's List as one of the inspirations behind the character. | |

Discussed in Static. When caught doing research on the Malcolm Xerox supervillain Commando X and lectured by his parents, Virgil claims that black people can't be racist if they don't have the power to oppress anyone. His Reasonable Authority Figure father explains that anybody is capable of using violence and fear to oppress others and that people like X are no different from the Nazis. Sure enough, X himself begins targeting Jews after Jewish executives have his tv show Screwed by the Network. | |

v2 to v4 of Open Blue's Sirene (back then called Seran) didn't even try to hide its Naziness. Authoritarian Germanic nation led by a Führer, snazzy (albeit red) uniforms everywhere, an intelligence agency that almost directly parallels the SS right down to the Common Ranks, everything except racial superiority beliefs and swastikas. This was toned down in v5. | |

Attack on Titan: The Kingdom of Marley, which resides beyond the three Walls. They practice systemic racism and exclusion against the people of Eldian descent (bonus points for the Jewish overtones of the Eldian culture and mythology), forcing them into conditions that heavily remind of the treatment of Jews during The Holocaust, including using extensive propaganda to paint them as "descendants of the Devil", forcing them to live in ghettos and making them wear an armband with the Eldian symbol. Interestingly, both Eldian and Marleyan characters have Germanic sounding names already. The Yeagerists have this role for Eldians inside the walls. After the truth about the outside world is revealed, and that they plan to invade and exterminate the people of the island. The Yeagerists believe to be the master race destined to control the world, and rally after Eren Yeager, believing his powers will destroy the world outside the walls and help give rise to the New Eldian Empire. Having huge support from the population, they free Eren from prison, and execute a coup d'etat against the Military Junta, taking control of the government, gleefully executing foreigners — even those who were helping Paradis — mass poison dissidents with the Spinal Fluid to turn them into Titans, and adopt Erwin Smith's "Dedicate your hearts!" warcry into a Sieg Heil-equivalent. |

Tweeny Witches: The military dictatorship of the warlocks is led by Grande, who plans to destroy the Human Realm through dark magic in hopes of making a new home for his species to escape the destruction of the Magical Realm. They believe in the superiority of technology over magic and thus oppress the wizards as the remnants of the old magical order, forcing them to live in Miche Village since the establishment of Wizard Kingdom and having turned them into a Dying Race in the present. At one point, Tiana addresses Grande with "-kakka", a Japanese Honorific used for the Führer. When the special task force urges the witches to fight the warlocks, Luca paints humans as a scapegoat in an effort to get both groups together, claiming that one of them, Arusu, has hidden the True Book of Spells to keep dark magic from saving all the witches and warlocks from the eventual destruction of the Magical Realm. | |

Contact. There's a certain amount of alarm when the First Contact signal turns out to be a retransmitted television broadcast of Adolf Hitler giving a speech. Kitz even suggests it comes from Scary Dogmatic Aliens who find his views appealing. Cooler heads point out that aliens wouldn't understand the context of the transmission — the speech is Hitler opening the 1936 Olympics, which would have been the first strong TV signal sent into space. Sending it back is simply their way of showing the message was received. | |

Chicken Little (1943): Tying in with the short's status as a Wartime Cartoon, Foxy Loxy is written as a direct allegory for Nazi Germany and its tactics, using propaganda to manipulate the masses and defame his opponents before literally devouring his subjects. The initial draft further accentuated the allegory by having Foxy Loxy read a copy of Mein Kampf instead of a generic psychology textbook. | |

Starship Troopers (though very definitely not the novel of the same name) uses the Nazi-like symbolism to portray the humans as an evil invading race by Putting on the Reich, and occasionally showing a propaganda commercial. This is capped by Neil Patrick Harris (at the time, best known for Doogie Howser, M.D.) as a Dr. Mengele Expy. There are even hints that the humans, not the Arachnids, started the war. In the DVD Commentary, director Paul Verhoeven confirms it was very much intended as a Deconstructive Parody, and a middle finger to the book as well. Verhoeven grew up in the Netherlands under Nazi occupation and was working with a satirical script called Bug Hunt when he tried to read the book, found what he read as disgustingly familiar, and decided to adapt Bug Hunt to be a direct parody of the book. Also he used the film to satirize American politics, outright comparing the US Government (specifically what he was seeing in Texan politics in the 1990's) to the Nazis without even blinking, visibly taking fellow commentator Edward Neumeier off-guard. | |

It's hardly just Magneto — extremists who hate and fear mutants want them wiped out in a manner similar to ethnic cleansing. There are numerous Elseworld stories (like Days of Future Past) in which this has come true and Mutants are enslaved and imprisoned. Magneto's main motivation is to make sure this doesn't happen. By wiping out the humans first. Heel–Face Revolving Door and Depending on the Writer decide just whether Mags' solution is "don't start none, won't be none" or "epic mass destruction" or something in between this week. Part of this is because excess use of his powers makes him literally bipolar. The other part is later explained in Magneto: Not A Hero at the end of his savage "The Reason You Suck" Speech to his now psychotic clone, Joseph: "There are no heroes or villains. There is just what I want and how I'll get it." In short, he'll use whatever tactics seem appropriate. |

Ben 10: Alien Force has the Highbreed, a species of genocidal aliens who consider themselves the Master Race and wish to wipe all other "inferior" species out of existence, to the point of enslaving humans and forcing them to work hard labor on their warp gates. Heck, one Highbreed even has a German-sounding name. Although it turns out that their entire reason for doing is because their obsession with genetic purity has made their entire species sterile due to generations of inbreeding, so the current generation of Highbreed is in fact the last. They can't stand the thought of any "inferior" species outliving them, so they've gone on a Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum to make sure that everyone else dies before they do. | |

In X-Men: First Class, Sebastian Shaw (who really was a Nazi during the second World War, going under the name "Klaus Schmidt") envisions his mutant-dominated society much as if it were he ruling over 1940s Germany. Ironically, his most scarred victim as a Nazi scientist, Erik "Magneto" Lehnsherr, finds Shaw's mutant supremacy views to be compatible with his own, despite the fact he spends the entire movie chasing the man in an effort to get revenge for killing his mother during the Holocaust (he was a Jewish survivor of Auschwitz). Somehow, he isn't troubled by the similarities. | |

In The Order of the Stick, after the revelation of what Minister Malack plans to do with the Empire of Blood when he inherits it in some 30-40 years (to whit: organising for a thousand sentient beings to be sacrificed each day in the name of his deity, Nergal), plus his idle comment of needing to make "some special chamber to do it in" as Tarquin's silly arenas are inefficient, in #875, the forums were immediately filled with posters comparing him to the Nazis and Adolf Hitler in particular. The Giant himself promptly showed up and explained that the issue actually left certain details out; Minister Malack's plans also include creating a ruling caste of vampiric nobles to control the Empire with him, and the chambers were based on equal parts Soylent Green and factory farming. The professional butchering chambers (the Giant is a vegetarian, see?), are supposed to sacrifice via exsanguination, so that Nergal gets deaths in his honor and the vampires get blood to feed their own hungers. | |

The Zamoran Government from Lighter Than Heir. The similarities include being forbidden from holding a military after losing a war with a neighbor country, being resentful with said neighbor, building up a formidable military in secrecy, performing grisly human experiments on unwilling victims in secret laboratories, being obsessed with genetic "superiority", launching surprise attacks without warning, and massacring entire cities. Even their banner looks similar to the one used by Nazi Germany. | |

The Kreelers (anti-mutant lobby) in the 2000 AD strip Strontium Dog, led by Nelson Bunker Kreelman (pictured above). There's even a Kreeler Youth organisation. Replaced by The New Church in the SD story arc aptly titled The Final Solution. Another 2000AD comic, Invasion! and its sequel, Savage, feature the Volgans, a far-right Russian regime. Originally intended to be played by the Soviet Union, Editorial Meddling forced the creators to use a generically authoritarian Ruritanian copy so as not to aggravate officials at the Soviet embassy during a period of fragile détente. They were later explicitly revealed to be Russian. Likewise, the enemy Norts from Rogue Trooper show quite a number of Nazi characteristics. |

HYDRA from Captain America: The First Avenger are explicitly stated to have started as a Nazi deep science division, but move away from the Reich after the Red Skull plans on bombing Berlin as part of his plan for world conquest. He even states that due to his deformity, he no longer fits with Hitler's perfect Aryan ideal. Despite this, HYDRA still uses a "Hail HYDRA!" cry and salute that seems suspiciously close to the "Heil Hitler!" salute. Note that HYDRA seems to have at least moved away from the racial purity angle of the Nazi regime, as Jasper Sitwell, a brown-skinned Latino man, is seen as a HYDRA agent in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. This is given a big fat Lampshade Hanging in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: | |

In The Owl House fanfic The Girl from Earth, upon finding out about World War II, Luz's friends and family question how humanity could just sit by and let the Nazis come to power, only for Luz to angrily point out the Emperor's Coven is exactly the same (Cult of Personality, unethical experimentation, attempted eradication of everyone who doesn't fit the coven's rules, etc.). | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: In The Avengers (2012), one of the first things Loki does on earth is to force a crowd of Germans to kneel before him while giving a speech about how humans "were born to be ruled". One old German — who is confirmed by Word of God to be a Holocaust survivor — calls him out on this while refusing to kneel: HYDRA from Captain America: The First Avenger are explicitly stated to have started as a Nazi deep science division, but move away from the Reich after the Red Skull plans on bombing Berlin as part of his plan for world conquest. He even states that due to his deformity, he no longer fits with Hitler's perfect Aryan ideal. Despite this, HYDRA still uses a "Hail HYDRA!" cry and salute that seems suspiciously close to the "Heil Hitler!" salute. Note that HYDRA seems to have at least moved away from the racial purity angle of the Nazi regime, as Jasper Sitwell, a brown-skinned Latino man, is seen as a HYDRA agent in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. This is given a big fat Lampshade Hanging in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: HYDRA in the MCU seems to be something of an inversion, as despite being formed from a Nazi-splinter faction, they lack the nationalism and racial purity associated with Nazism and are borderline Terrorists Without a Cause. The Agents of HYDRA/Framework arc of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has them in full force, however, having taken over the United States on an anti-Inhumans party line... and pulling no stops on the "racial purity" issue, as a result. |

Choze from One-Punch Man is a practitioner of the 'Fist of the Pure Blood Master Race' martial arts style, and claims to be from a clan of people who have practiced the greatest breeding program to create a superior race, and that they aim to rule the world. He also looks like the generic ideal of an 'Aryan Superman'. Upon becoming a monster, he decides that he is going to wipe out all of the 'inferior specimens' of humanity and only let the 'master race' survive, and one of his new attacks is even called 'Inferior Race Annihilation Shot'. | |

X-Men Film Series: X2: X-Men United: William Stryker's genocidal desires peg him as one. In X-Men: First Class, Sebastian Shaw (who really was a Nazi during the second World War, going under the name "Klaus Schmidt") envisions his mutant-dominated society much as if it were he ruling over 1940s Germany. Ironically, his most scarred victim as a Nazi scientist, Erik "Magneto" Lehnsherr, finds Shaw's mutant supremacy views to be compatible with his own, despite the fact he spends the entire movie chasing the man in an effort to get revenge for killing his mother during the Holocaust (he was a Jewish survivor of Auschwitz). Somehow, he isn't troubled by the similarities. |

In the final episode of BNA: Brand New Animal, Alan Sylvasta is revealed to be what amounts to the Beast Man equivalent of Adolf Hitler. He is an immortal, Kaiju-esque pure-bred Beastman who plans to use his cure for the Nirvasyl syndrome to forcibly turn all "hybrid" beastmen into humans against their will in the name of "genetic purity", which isn't too far off from the actual Nazis' rhetoric. | |

In Event Horizon: Storm of Magic, the Lannisters definitely seem to take on characteristics of the Nazis as they modernize, complete with a "Lannister Salute", foot soldiers who dress up with spiked helmets, and Tywin Lannister openly discussing creating a "thousand year dynasty" and invading the Riverlands to obtain more "living space". | |

The Fire Nation from Avatar: The Last Airbender. "We are the sons and daughters of fire, the superior element!" a military rally is told. There's genocide in the back-story, attempted genocide in the climax, there's propaganda, revisionist history, indoctrination of the young, and the whole take-over-the-world thing. While the Fire Nation is definitely paralleling Nazi Germany, its main parallel was Imperial Japan, which had all of the above. The various Chinese dynasties also were definitively in there if you were looking for them with any regularity. Which just goes to show that "Nazi's" are Older Than Print. While we don't know what he did in particular, Chin the Conqueror/the Great is a serious contender for Bonapartism, as seen in the episode Avatar Day. Though he is far more obviously a rather blatant copy of the First Emperor of China, whose name he also shares. In the sequel The Legend of Korra, the treatment of non-benders by the Republic City Council (mostly Tarrlok's doing) (Curfews, cutting off electricity, rounding up innocents including children en masse and throwing them in jail) in response to the rising threat of the Equalists is awfully similar to not only the Nazi treatment of Jews, but also the Red Scare and Japanese internment in North America. The Equalists are also very similar to Nazis, with their desire to "purge impurities..." And there's fact that the leader of this anti-Bender movement in no way fits his own definition of purity. In Book 4 Kuvira and her Earth Empire not only employ re-education camps for dissenters and traitors but proceed to send any "non-Earth Empire" citizens to prison camps, specifically targeting anyone not of direct Earth Kingdom descent. |

The Norsefire Party in V for Vendetta. The head honcho Leader Adam Susan, in an introspective moment before the beginning of his slide into true madness, reaffirms to himself he is fascist, both by the historic and the Nazi definition. In his own mental phrasing (and Norsefire doctrine, no doubt), the war "put paid to freedom". | |

Endtown: The Topsiders are complete xenophobes who kill anything that isn't human. They're all about human purity and believe that The Virus will die if they complete their genocide. But sometimes, they'll experiment with mutant brains and vivisect immune humans For Science!. For extra irony, the reveal that the mutation comes from contact with extradimensional matter and how they just showed up one day at the end of the world, implies that they might not even be human, let alone from the same world/dimension. | |

Gundam SEED does this to both sides. ZAFT shares Zeon/Germany's look, and their leader, Patrick Zala, is essentially a more sympathetic expy of Gihren, who believes that Coordinators are a Superior Species/Master Race that deserves to replace the Naturals, and advocates the butchering of surrendering troops and the eventual destruction of the Earth (he and his supporters live in space colonies) by Wave-Motion Gun. His archenemy, Muruta Azrael, is a smooth-talking blond psychopath who runs Blue Cosmos, an anti-Coordinator political party and lobby group that is equal parts Nazi Party and Ku Klux Klan cell, and seeks to use nuclear weapons to destroy the colonies and kill all the Coordinators because they are "unnatural." As both sides become more and more Naziesque, the sympathetic characters on both eventually defect, forming the Three Ships' Alliance. | |

Gundam The Principality of Zeon and its successor movement Neo Zeon from the UC timeline preach a Master Race philosophy that champions Spacenoids (humans born in space) as superior over Earthnoids, make use of Deadly Gas to exterminate dissidents and ultimately plan to cull Earth's population once they've conquered it. Although, the political and military actions taken by Zeon "liberating" other colonies from the Earth Federation are more akin to Imperial Japan's actions of "liberating" Asian nations from Western influence. They also have a salute that goes "Sieg Zeon!" (Hail Zeon in the dub) and are led by a charismatic despot who accepts being compared to Hitler as a complement. While the analogy had been in place since the series started, the 1990s OVAs Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket and Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory kicked it into overdrive by having Zeon start slapping German names on practically everything and using flags and banners that were literally just Nazi trappings with the Swastika replaced by their own emblem; the franchise has kept running with the theme and hasn't looked back since. On the other side of the war, the Titans in Zeta Gundam also have an SS vibe, being a State Sec that believes in the supremacy of Earthnoids over Spacenoids. And yes, they also like using Deadly Gas to massacre undesirables. The Sleeves, The Remnant of Neo Zeon, have Nazi-esque designs for their mobile suits: example, the Geara Zulu has a distinctive helmet shape. Their soldiers use "All Hail Neo Zeon!" as a battle cry of sorts. |

Murder Drones has the Disassembly Drones, who were sent by JC Jenson in Spaaaaacee!!!! to wipe out the newly independent Worker Drones after the humans they were supposed to be serving died out and there was no more use for them. If wiping out a group of people wasn't enough, they wear uniforms reminiscent of Nazi officers, complete with armbands, though their leader J is the only one who also expresses the Workers' supposed inferiority. | |

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore: Grindelwald, as Voldemort's predecessor, loathes Muggles, wants war against them and believes his own kind (the magical people) are naturally superior. He even disparages Muggles as "animals". Further, he nearly takes power in the same year as Hitler, with similar ruthless methods. His Army's symbol also has a vaguely swastika design behind the Deathly Hallows symbol. | |

His authoritarian rule is compared to "Julius Caesar, dot Italian" and "Attila, dot Aryan," a thinly-veiled allusion to two dictators who held power when the show was written (1938). | |

In order for the old, previously lost rules of King Mortimer to be enforced, King Bob employed Fun Police, who even had red armbands with happy faces on them. There were also higher-up Secret Fun Police. |

Humarise from My Hero Academia : World Heroes' Mission is a anti-Quirk cult who claim that those with Quirks are abominations that should be purged so the Quirkless, the "true humanity" in their eyes, would be allowed to thrive. To that end, the organization attempted a Final Solution involving a global genocide of Quirk users via Super-Power Meltdown inducing bombs. True to form, because Quirkless individuals are so rare, most of their own ranks have Quirks, with their membership being explained as them either being full of self-loathing for their powers or opportunists who hope they can survive being "cleansed" by making themself useful to the cult. Even the cult's leader is a self-loathing Quirk user, despite his Quirkless Supremacist doctrine!. | |

Thurim in Requiem Vampire Knight is an Medieval example as a German Teutonic Knight who was secretly an Satanist that fought in the famous Battle in the Ice against the Nodvgorod Republic. Prior to the battle, he makes a speech to his men denouncing the Russians not just as heretics since they are Orthodox Christians (which is rich, considering where his true allegiance lies), but outright sub-human - anti-Slavic racism was an essential component to National Socialism. Just before perishing, he issues a Dying Curse on the Russians promising revenge in another lifetime which he gets when reincarnating centuries later as an actual Nazi fighting in the Eastern Front against the Soviets. | |

One Piece: The fishman pirate Arlong believes that fishmen are a superior race towards humans whose only purpose is to serve them and even tried to create an empire where fishmen would be the rulers of the world, and these beliefs were passed on to Hody Jones to took them to an even greater extreme. The New Fishmen Pirates Lead by the mentioned Hody Jones have a very intense hatred for humans largely due to the negative influence of the environment they were living in. Arlong as well as countless human hating Fish-men filled their minds with anti-human propogada, making them believe that it was their duty to deliver divine punishment to humans and any human supporter fishmen. They even burn down a house of a Fishman who had donated blood to save a human while wearing black masks to conceal their identities. The World Government, despite presenting itself as a federation like organization composed of kingdoms across the globe, is in reality more of a totalitarian regime controlled by an oligarchy of nobles who see everyone who isn’t one of them as insects including other humans and are led by a single ruler. Fantastic Racism is common and encouraged towards other species (especially towards Fishmen who have a long history of being slaves to the World Nobility), and the government has many assassination groups and death squads to keep itself in power and maintain the status quo. Many of their high-ranking Marines follow the idea of absolute justice and are willing to commit genocide against any group or nation that opposes them or deemed a potential threat, to the point that they would even erase it from existence. In the Whole Cake Island arc from, we're introduced to the nation of Germa and its army of Germa 66 (pronounced "Double Six"). Germa itself borrows heavily from Nazi imagery, with one of its national symbols being similar to the Reichsadler (the Nazi eagle) and prides itself on scientific progress and conquest. |

Borduria in the Tintin franchise — first played straight by dictator Müsstler (Mussolini + Hitler) and later subverted by "Taschism" by dictator Kurvi-Tasch (in the original French, "Plekszy-Glasz", referring to Plexiglas, implying being "transparently Nazi"). | |

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the Death Eaters are symbolized as Klansmen—check out the KKK-inspired headgear, torches and "burning signal". Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows shows a snippet of Hermione's torture from the book, except instead of just hearing her disembodied screams, we also see Bellatrix doing...something with the dagger in her hand to Hermione's arm. When we see her arm, we can see that Lestrange carved "Mudblood" into the inside of Hermione's forearm, much like how the Nazis tattooed numbers into the forearms of the Jews in concentration camps. | |

In Man of Steel, Zod's speeches about saving the world from decline by rooting out inferior bloodlines (and then genociding an inferior species, i.e. humans) are eerily reminiscent of a certain ideology. | |

Britannia from Code Geass combine Nazism with the British Empire, with a society built around notions of Social Darwinism. They refer to conquered non-Britannian people by a numbered designation ("Elevens" instead of Japanese) and are not hesitant to massacre entire ghettos in order to fulfill their aims. Emperor Charles zi Britannia turns the funeral of his own son, Prince Clovis, into a political rally complete with All Hail Britannia chants. It also borrows from Japan itself, with the Numbers being a reference to the Japanization that happened after Japan began expanding its borders. There is also a Pureblood faction that tries to seize power following Clovis' assassination. At one point, Princess Euphemia, one of the Britannians who opposes this system, is prodded to overlook an apparently talented painter's work due to his having a smidgen of Eleven blood. The uniform style is notably absent, particularly considering how it's used so much in anime without trying to evoke this trope. To drive the nail further, the often used Britannian chant is "All hail Britannia!", which sounds more like "All heil Britannia!" in the Japanese version |

The Hero Laughs While Walking the Path of Vengeance a Second Time: Just like Adolph, Princess Alessia genuinely believes that she has a divine mandate to exterminate all the "lesser" beings, everyone with less than 100% human blood, and those from other worlds or countries, even if they're all 100% human, purely for the repulsive "crime" of daring to exist in her sight. | |

The Force Awakens takes this even further, with the First Order, the Empire's successor organization established by Imperial officers that refused to recognize the New Weimar-by-any-other-name Republic. They wave red-and-black banners, and they take after the SS, whereas the Empire took after the Wehrmacht. Word of God has compared them to Nazis who fled to South America after WWII. General Hux's speech right before Starkiller Base blows the Hosnian System into a trillion space chunks clearly takes after the way Hitler did his speeches, starting off fairly firm but calm but escalating into outright screaming at the end of his last sentence. Oh, and the Stormtroopers in attendance raise their arms into the air in unison afterwards. | |

"Arctic Nation", from the eponymous edition of Blacksad, consists of rich, influential white animals (as in, with white fur), who wear early Nazi-style trenchcoats, have a flag which substitutes a stylized snowflake for the swastika, and wear armbands, but in their actual workings they're instead The Klan, complete with sheet robes and burning crosses. | |

In Tomahawk #112, Tomahawk battles a Hessian officer named Van Grote: a Torture Technician who is rounding civilians sympathetic to the rebel cause and imprisoning them in them is prison camps (surrounded by anachronistic barbed wire). To further drive the point home he has adopted a good luck symbol stolen from a local Indian chief as his personal symbol: the swastika.note Never mind that the swastika was a symbol of luck for the Navajo: a tribe located nowhere the original 13 colonies. His personal troops wear the symbol on an armband. | |

The Imperium in Strike Legion, as a copy(or perhaps a Take That!) to the above Warhammer 40000 Imperium, is a galaxy-spanning empire with a completely psychotic God Empress at the reins. In the Imperium, conscription and brainwashing are commonplace, and Imperial scientists perform cruel genetic experiments to create new breeds of superior humans to fill out the empire's population. The Empress' core philosophy is that Humanity Is Superior and all other lifeforms, especially Gens (genetically engineered species) are "impure" and must be destroyed; the Imperium has wiped out scores of alien civilisations and continually seeks to wipe out all the others, with varying degrees of success. This puts them at odds with the democratic, alien-friendly Star Republic. | |

The 1995 film adaptation of Richard III gives us a Setting Update, with Genteel Interbellum Setting Britain gradually Putting on the Reich and turning into a Nazi-esque/Orwellian state. Richard's heraldic boar is even incorporated into an exact copy of the Nazi flag in the place of a swastika. Surprisingly, the movie works quite well — both as a Shakespeare adaptation and as a satire on the inter-war period's nonchalance toward the rise of authoritarian regimes. | |

Since Warhammer 40,000 likes to take things to the extreme, its Imperium of Man is a mash-up of all kinds of totalitarian nightmares. There's Nazi elements in its militaristic authoritarianism, leader worship, obsession with racial purity (mutants are hunted down and exterminated, because they tend to worship Chaos), awesome tanks and spiffy uniforms. But there's also shades of the Soviet Union in the Imperium's bloated bureaucracy and use of commissars, as well as the Termight Empire thanks to an Inquisition serving as secret police. Arguable is how much of this fits in with the Emperor's vision of the future. He fought the Great Crusade to unify humanity under an enlightened order and free it from the oppression of gods or xenos. On the other hand, the anti-mutant angle, xenophobia, and militarism were all his ideas, he didn't show much concern about the well-being of Imperial citizens so long as the Imperium as a whole prospered, and his war on religion was an attempt to starve the Chaos Gods which he officially denied existed. In the end, the Horus Heresy happened, the Emperor was put on life support, and his Imperium devolved into a Commie Nazi hellhole where he's worshiped as a god on pain of being burned at the stake. There's a reason the fandom calls the Imperium "Catholic Space Nazis". Just sayin'. |

An episode of the 1980s Fat Albert cartoon had the Junkyard gang confronting a White supremacist group called the Double Cross, their insignia being two X's. This episode subverts things somewhat in the sense that Hitler, the Nazis, Swastikas, and the Holocaust are explicitly and constantly referred to in the course of the episode. Even in the allegorical Brown Hornet segment, Hitler was still mentioned by name. | |

In Warhammer, the Skaven are seen as very analogous to the Third Reich, what with their super technology, horrifying experiments, rune iconography (one of the more commonly used ones is a swastika-styled triskelion), disregard for human life, plan to conquer the world by killing everyone worthless (i.e. everyone, period) and the fact they have a unit called "Storm Vermin". | |

In Child of the Storm, HYDRA are this (as per usual), partly because they employ actual Nazis, one of whom is known for experimenting on people, as is Lucius Malfoy, in a roundabout fashion. He's a Social Darwinist who believes that the strong should rule the weak - he's just a bit more flexible about the whole race thing. Wanda alludes to telling her father Magneto to his face that he was no better than the Nazis and similar — and given that she's Romani on her mother's side, and was raised by her mother's family, it's not just a Godwin's Law comparison. As she notes with a certain degree of satisfaction, he took it badly. T'Challa accuses Baron Zemo of being little more than a Nazi. The other man objects, claiming to be a Social Darwinist and that Nazism's obsession with race ("mere cosmetics") got in the way of true Social Darwinism, before using T'Challa as an example - Nazis would have seen him, a black man, as fundamentally inferior, whereas Zemo recognises that he is a Super-Soldier and Genius Bruiser who is far superior to any of the Nazis. |

The Testament of Dr. Mabuse might be the Trope Codifier. Director Fritz Lang recasts Diabolical Mastermind Dr. Mabuse as an evil visionary promoting an "Empire of Crime" dedicated to sowing chaos and destruction. Unsurprisingly, Joseph Goebbels saw Mabuse as a Hitler analogue and promptly banned the film. Of course, Lang's earlier film M made a similar analogy, comparing Berlin's underworld to the Nazi Party. | |

Since Exo Squad is the European Theater of World War II IN SPACE!, it's no surprise that Phaeton's Neosapien Order has Naziesque qualities in rhetoric and ideology, and somewhat in practice.

Power Rangers GPX: Ragnar, the villain of Power Rangers GPX Supercharged, might as well be an elf version of a fascist dictator, right down to desiring a Final Solution to eliminate humanity, and having concentration camps. To put it in depth, he believes that humans, whom he considers to be inferior to elves, are a threat to Earth. So he manipulates his Queen to be able to attack the Power Rangers (who'd recently saved the world from an alien invasion). But then when she tells him off, he decides he never needed her in the first place and tries to kill her. Then he overthrows the government, installs himself as dictator, and all but declares war on humanity. As the fic goes on, his nazi-like tendencies are fleshed out, culminating in The Reveal of the aforementioned concentration camps. | |

TRON: Legacy has CLU, a digital double of programmer Kevin Flynn who was created to help develop the perfect system. Unfortunately, CLU's idea of perfection wound up being outdated. For the sake of his "perfect system" he not only turned on his programmer, but also began gathering an army of "re-purposed" programs (including Tron himself), wiped out a newly discovered race of ISOs (save one survivor named Quorra), and tossing any programs who didn't meet his standards into games in which loss means de-resolution (which is program-ish for "death", in case you were wondering). His ultimate goal was to escape into the world outside the Grid, the real world, and destroy everything "imperfect" to make way for his perfect system. | |

Nishikori in Cage of Eden is explicitly referred to as using Nazi tactics. However, in a rare example, they are not talking about genocide or racism (the population is too small for that). Rather, he borrows the Nazi "whistle blowing" tactic, encouraging his slaves to report on each other. Not only does it keep him informed, but it keeps his followers scared and unable to cooperate against him. | |

TNA had the stable Mexican America, who were encouraging "Hispanics" to takeover the USA/Florida because, in Hernandez's words, "They are the superior race!", however, these words proved to be much narrower than thought when Mexican America assaulted someone sitting at the Spanish Announcers' Table because they discovered one of them was a Mexican and didn't hate his broadcast partner who wasn't, even though he was still of Latin Nationality and Hispanic descent. Mexica/Chicanos were apparently the only "race" they cared about. They did accept aid from a gringo in Jeff Jarrett though, who felt obligated to in order to back up the claim he was "King Of Mexico" after winning AAA's Mega Title. Ironically, of the four members of the stable, only one was fully of Mexican descent. Hernandez is of both Mexican and Puerto Rican descent, Rosita is of Puerto Rican descent, and Sarita is Canadian (real name Sarah Stock). | |

Kill la Kill: The Honnouji Academy Student Council and their minions rule the school like a dictatorship and institute "survival of the fittest"-style policies while wearing white SS-style uniforms. By extension, there is also REVOCS and the Kiryuin Conglomerate, who put them in power and have them spread their propaganda. CEO Ragyo Kiryuin believes that the Life Fibers are a Master Race that is superior to humans, who deserve to be ruled over and consumed by them, and her Evil Plan is effectively a Final Solution aimed at humanity itself. | |

In In Nomine, the Archangel of Purity, named Uriel, took his role a bit too far and tried to "purify" the world of a race of beings called Ethereals which included most of the creatures of myth and legend. His "Purge" was largely successful with most Ethereals fleeing Earth for the dream-world; however, God himself eventually intervened and Uriel has not been seen since. Plus, Uriel was so Hitleriffic, he was able to genocide beings which didn't exist yet! |

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power Season 3 reveals that the intergalactic Horde has conquered entire galaxies, and is manned by genetically related clones of one man. Season 4 reveals that the First Ones wanted to purge all "impure" life from the galaxy. Etheria and the She-Ra mantle were appropriated by the First Ones for this purpose, as Adora discovers to her horror. |

Nemesis Sudou from the Evillious Chronicles franchise eventually becomes a Nazi without any selective racism—she becomes the dictator of a country based on Germany under the title "Führer" and decided to blow up the whole world during the setting's equivalent to WWII/WWI. | |

South Park: In "The Passion of the Jew", Cartman got all his Nazi imagery and leads a march where he yells hate messages in German, but everyone following him just thought they were fans of The Passion of the Christ. Cartman's ginger supremacist movement in "Ginger Kids". He refers to Gingers as "the chosen race"; in the climax of the episode, the gingers kidnap every non-ginger with the goal of exterminating them. It should be noted that the episode started off with Cartman spreading hate speech about ginger kids, which led to several kids being bullied. Stan, Kyle, and Kenny sneaked into Cartman's room while he was asleep and dyed and his hair and drew freckles on his face to make him think he was ginger so he'd learn a lesson. Being on the other end of the bullying he instigated, Cartman spearheaded the plan to exterminate non-ginger kids because he refuses to be part of a minority. He talks everyone down from beginning the genocide when Kyle secretly tells him why his appearance changed, as Cartman realized if the other gingers found out they'd kill him too. |

In the sequel The Legend of Korra, the treatment of non-benders by the Republic City Council (mostly Tarrlok's doing) (Curfews, cutting off electricity, rounding up innocents including children en masse and throwing them in jail) in response to the rising threat of the Equalists is awfully similar to not only the Nazi treatment of Jews, but also the Red Scare and Japanese internment in North America. The Equalists are also very similar to Nazis, with their desire to "purge impurities..." And there's fact that the leader of this anti-Bender movement in no way fits his own definition of purity. In Book 4 Kuvira and her Earth Empire not only employ re-education camps for dissenters and traitors but proceed to send any "non-Earth Empire" citizens to prison camps, specifically targeting anyone not of direct Earth Kingdom descent. |

The Wave (1981), mostly based on the "Third Wave" experiment in a Palo Alto, California high school, sees a high school history teacher conduct an unusual experiment to illustrate the chilling reality of the Holocaust and Nazi-ism by dividing his class into three social groups with strict rules stressing that an individual is part of something more important than himself. Things are fun and games at first, but eventually it becomes all too real as the lesson's unintended consequences turns the school into a regimental, regressive state of fascism and one of the groups becoming virtual Nazis. A German-language feature film inspired by the experiment, The Wave (2008), was produced in 2008. | |

The Fire Never Dies has the falangists. While they existed in real life, some of the entries indicate that not only will they become the dominant far-right philosophy to the point that falangism becomes a byword for any far-right authoritarian system the way that fascism has in our history, but Britain will be one of the nations that falls to falangism. | |

The German film Das Experiment is a fictionalized dramatization of the Stanford Prison Experiment, which emphasizes the Nazi-like aspects of the guards' behavior. In case the point isn't obvious enough, their leader actually resembles a blond Hitler. At one point, one of the prisoners even calls him a Nazi. The experiment itself, along with the Milgram Obedience Experiment, were originally devised as an attempt to understand what would drive otherwise good people to commit the atrocities that the Nazis perpetrated during World War II. | |

In Tsogt Taij, the invading Chinese and Tibetans are cruel and merciless. The film uses a closeup to show the swastikas the Tibetan Buddhists use during a religious ceremony. Of course, the swastika is an ancient religious symbol that predates the Nazis by a millennium or more—but in this film, made in Soviet-allied Mongolia just as World War II was ending, the context is clear. To make it even more obvious, the swastikas shown in the movie are right-facing, Nazi-style, rather than left-facing as used in actual Buddhist iconography. | |

The Flying Circus core rulebook describes The Goth Army as "the looming spectre of fascism." Their atrocities include a slave-driven economy and violent revanchism. The rulebook suggests saying to most groups that the Goths are "goddamn Nazis!" to make clear their real-world counterparts and why they're a Threat to topple. | |

Bob Heller, one of the presidential candidates in Transmetropolitan, whose rhetoric is equal parts social Darwinism and Patriotic Fervor. His campaign insignia is a black "H" in a white circle on a field of red, and other characters openly compare him to the Nazis and his campaign events to the Nuremberg rallies. (Just how much of a Crapsack World is Transmetropolitan? Not only is Heller not the evilest candidate in the race, he's not even the most evil candidate in his party.) | |

Voltes V: While The Boazanian Empire is a parallel to 17-18th Century France, many of their aspects are disturbingly similar to the Nazis, such as the belief that their race is superior to the others (and that it is fair for them to enslave them based on their genetic inferiority), the punishment of anyone who questions them/is considered "unloyal", their practice of eliminating the weak Boazanians, and their usage of slave labour to fund their war efforts. | |
