Nazi ideology

Nazi ideology was a set of beliefs centered on extreme nationalism, racial superiority, and anti-Semitism. It promoted the idea that Germans were the "master race" destined to dominate others, and it blamed Jews, Romani people, disabled individuals, and others for societal problems. Nazis rejected democracy and promoted authoritarian rule under Adolf Hitler. Their ideology emphasized military strength, imperial expansion, and the suppression of dissent. This combination of racist beliefs and aggressive policies led to widespread persecution, the Holocaust, and World War II, making it one of the most destructive ideologies in history.
