"One People, one Reich, one Leader."On 30 January 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany. Although he initially headed a coalition government, he quickly eliminated his government partners. At this time Germany's borders were still determined by the Treaty of Versailles, the peace treaty between Germany and the allied powers of the United Kingdom, France, United States, Italy, and Japan at the end of the First World War. To the north, Germany was bounded by the North Sea, Denmark, and the Baltic Sea; to the east, it was divided into two and bordered Lithuania, The Free City of Danzig, Poland and Czechoslovakia; to the south, it bordered Austria and Switzerland and to the west, it touched France, Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Rhineland and Saarland. These borders changed after Germany regained control of the Rhineland, Saarland and the Memelland and annexed Austria, the Sudetenland and Bohemia and Moravia. Germany expanded into Greater Germany during the Second World War, which began in 1939 after Germany invaded Poland, triggering the United Kingdom and France to declare war on Germany. Germany conquered and occupied most of Europe and Northern Africa during the Second World War. Millions of Jews and other minorities were persecuted and killed, particularly during the Second World War, amidst the Holocaust. Despite an alliance with other nations, mainly Italy and Japan, that together formed the Axis powers, by 1945, Germany had lost the war and ceased to exist. It was subsequently occupied after the war by the victorious allied powers of the Soviet Union, United Kingdom, United States, and France.[4] The Third Reich arose in the wake of the national shame, embarrassment, anger and resentment which resulted from the Treaty of Versailles.[5] Versailles, a harsh treaty essentially dictated to the vanquished Germans after a brutal war, provided for

15. So You Thought You Had Seen The Earliest Movie About A Brave Archeology Professor Battling Nazi Ger
May 22, 2008
The plot may sound somewhat familiar: an unassuming Archeologist goes up against the growing might of pre-war Nazi Germany in a thrilling adventure with the fate of many on the line. He's got a very common last name, and is known for his daring bravado. But this isn't a blockbuster from George Lucas and Stephen Spielberg - in fact, although it may have been the inspiration for 1981's Raiders of the Lost Ark, this movie came out in 1941!
Forty years before the release of Raiders of the Lost Ark, English actor Leslie Howard released a movie he had directed and produced with his own money, ear... (read more)

18. Education News: German Homeschoolers Fight the Power
October 18, 2007
As America moves forward with thousands of parents turning away from government education, Germany seems to be taking a step backwards towards the restriction of freedoms reminiscent of the Nazi era.

Germany's academic standards are among the lowest in Europe, and their hostility towards homeschooling shows that they do not want any private institutions unmasking their inability to educate. “…this gravely oppressive action was condoned by the European Cour...
