National Socialist ideology
National Socialist ideology, associated with the Nazi Party in Germany, is characterized by extreme nationalism, a belief in the superiority of the "Aryan" race, and anti-Semitism. It promotes the idea of a strong, centralized state led by a dictatorial leader, valuing militarism and expansionism. The ideology emphasizes the importance of community and racial purity, often at the expense of individual rights and freedoms. It seeks to unify and strengthen the nation through the exclusion and persecution of perceived enemies, particularly Jewish people and other minorities, ultimately leading to widespread violence and genocide during World War II.
