Germany In 1936, German troops entered the demilitarised Rhineland, violating the Versailles Treaty, in an attempt to rebuild national self-esteem. That year, the German Communist Party was established, and on January 1919 the German Workers Party, later known as the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP). While the German language and the feeling of "Germanhood" go back more than a thousand years, the state now known as Germany was unified as a modern nation-state only in 1871, when the German Empire, dominated by the Kingdom of Prussia, was forged. www.worldhistory.com /wiki/G/Germany.htm   (5026 words)

An Army Surplus-The NVA's Heritage, BICC Brief 3, June 1995 The fall of the Berlin wall and the succeeding German reunification left the Federal Republic of Germany's Bundeswehr with an additional, inherited army, the former East German National Peoples Army (NVA). Since not all these limits were met prior to the cascading, this process could led to substantial increases in national holdings in some cases. The personnel, infra-structure, weapons, ammunition and all other types of equipment of the former East German armed forces-supplemented by weaponry former-ly owned by the East German Intelligence and internal Security Services (Stasi), the border troops and other armed units-ended up under Bundeswehr ownership, custody and responsibility. www.bits.de /public/bicc95.htm   (7482 words)

German National Identity: Patriotism and Stigma By contrast, the people who self-identified as patriotic Germans were, ironically, most likely to show signs of nationalism—as indicated by endorsement of the military, national anthem, and ethnocentrism— rather than benign patriotism. The intertwined issues of German national identity and patriotism are not just matter for idle contemplation: divergent approaches to these controversial topics have shaped aspects of Germans’ lives ranging from the government’s official immigration policies to the everyday experiences of Germans abroad, from Germany’s position in the international community to German schoolchildren’s history lessons. The present study explores the singular topography of German national identity and patriotism with an appreciation of the specific situations or stigmas that Germans may encounter and is an attempt to interpret some of these findings in a more global framework. surj.stanford.edu /archives/2003-05GermanNational.html   (2932 words)

Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia That year, the German Communist Party was established, and in January 1919 the German Workers Party, later known as the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (National Socialist German Workers Party, NSDAP, "Nazis"). 9% of the population is not ethnically German.

Bavaria - nationalanthems.info When the German anthem became official in 1952, the Bavarian Parliament decided unanimously that the German National Anthem and the Bavarian Anthem should be played by Radio Bavaria and taught at school together. This song spread fast all over the country and was soon known by most people. The anthem originally had lyrics praising the king of Bavaria in the third verse, this was omitted in 1918 and in 1946 the Bavarian poet Josef Marai Lutz wrote a new stanza (which is now unofficially used). david.national-anthems.net /bav.htm   (290 words)

Das Lied der Deutschen - A closer look. - Stormfront White Nationalist Community A crumbled and dismayed nation rose from the ashes on the back of Hitler like a phoenix, pain and injustice had been the anthem of the German people untill the day when Hitler delivered his message to the poeple and they cheared "Hail Hitler". It is a look at the German National Anthem, it compares it to the British and French Anthems and is quite an eye opener and raises some fair points that most anti-whites would see as being the anthem of evil. But it only made me think, how can you call the whole German nation evil, the support for Hier Hitler was overwhelming if not unaminous by mid 1930's. www.stormfront.org /forum/showthread.php?t=117348   (1647 words)

The Silencing of Hans Schmidt: Hans Schmidt Was Thrown into Jail Simply for Displeasing the Wrong People -- Free Speech, January 1996 That's because the German government today is a continuation of the occupation government imposed on the German people 50 years ago by the communist and democratic Allies who conquered Germany in the Second World War. Five months ago, in August 1995, an American was seized by the German secret police at the airport in Frankfurt as he was preparing to return to the United States after visiting his 93-year-old mother in Germany. Schmidt often discusses in his newsletters is the Jews' hate-propaganda campaign against Germany, especially their claim that the Germans gassed 6,000,000 of them to death during the Second World War, and therefore the Germans of today owe the Jews of today a free living. www.natall.com /free-speech/fs961b.html   (2659 words)

Nazi Party (NSDAP) The German people were asked to vote whether they approved the consolidation of the offices of President and Chancellor in a single Leader-Chancellor personified by Adolf Hitler. The German Army was worried that it was a left-wing revolutionary group and sent Adolf Hitler, one of its education officers, to spy on the organization. The German Social Democrat Party was the largest party in the Reichstag, it did not have a majority over all the other parties, and the SPD leader, Hermann Mueller, had to rely on the support of others to rule Germany. www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk /GERnazi.htm   (5951 words)

National Gallery of Art-20th century Teaching Packet National alliances, often motivated by conflicting colonial interests abroad, were in a constant state of flux, and in the newly developing nations of Europe, serious struggles between upstart and established political parties emerged, dramatically shifting the balance of power. Convinced that her art should serve the needs of the people rather than a small elite of art connoisseurs, she chose printmaking (and relatively inexpensive, multiple images) as the likely medium to reach the broadest possible audience. Tellingly, women were still denied admittance to official art schools when she undertook the study of art in the 1880s, but in 1919 she became the first woman elected to a professorship at the Prussian Academy of Arts. www.ibiblio.org /nga/20thc.html   (3411 words)

The Corner on National Review Online If you care about national security, it is critical that the Justice Department continue to have solid people at the helm — in the positions that are in the thick of the day-to-day task of protecting Americans. As if the concentration camps scattered by American Imperialists are ANY different from the ones erected by the German National Socialists, or Stalin. So my view is that the commissioners got all high and mighty with each other about how their efforts were being stymied, how they needed to get to the truth and were being hindered in their efforts, how the "families" deserved no less, etc. etc. corner.nationalreview.com /05_08_07_corner-archive.asp   (12282 words)

Wikipedia: Dietsch Another reason 'Diets' is no longer used in modern Dutch is that the term was abused by 20th century fascists of the NSB and other nationalists, usually in the terms 'Diets', 'Nederdiets', or 'Nederduits' to refer to the shared heritage of the Dutch and German people. A historical remnant of the original meaning of 'Duits' to refer the the people of the Netherlands, rather than the people of Germany, can still be seen in first line of the Dutch National anthem : 'Duits' is still used in Dutch to refer to the German people and language, but the word 'diets', as well as the use of 'Duits' to refer to the Dutch people and language has fallen out of use. www.factbook.org /wikipedia/en/d/di/dietsch.html   (133 words)
