Nazi Party

The Nazi Party is a German political party which came to power in that country in 1933. Under the Nazis, Germany extended its borders across most of Central and Western Europe from 1939 to 1942 in a series of wars which led to World War II.

The Nazis were originally led by Adolf Hitler. Their platform was aggressively militarist and racist, calling for genocide against many ethnic groups, most famously the Jews.

The Nazi Party had alienated most of the world from Germany by the time World War II began, but with the invasion of the Race in 1942 the various human powers capable of resisting the race's onslaught were forced to ally with one another. The decision to find common cause with the Nazis was an unpopular one in the United States, the Soviet Union, and Britain, but the necessity was recognized.

After the Peace of Cairo ensured Germany's continued independence, the Nazis continued to dominate Germany. Hitler's successors Heinrich Himmler and Ernst Kaltenbrunner were members of the Nazi Party. Kaltenbrunner's successor, Walter Dornberger, was not a particularly enthusiastic believer in the Nazi platform, much to the relief of most of the world's human population and the Race, which trusted the Nazis no more than any human government which had dealt with them.
