the Nazi regime

The Nazi regime, led by Adolf Hitler from 1933 to 1945 in Germany, was a totalitarian government rooted in extreme nationalism, racial superiority, and anti-Semitism. It promoted the idea of Aryan racial dominance, persecuted Jews, Romani people, disabled individuals, and others they considered inferior, leading to widespread discrimination and atrocities. The regime aimed to expand German territory, ultimately causing World War II. It used propaganda, censorship, and violence to maintain control, resulting in the Holocaust, during which six million Jews and millions of others were murdered. The regime's brutal policies left a lasting impact on history.
