Leftist political parties are banned; Germany is declared a one-party state; Jews and leftists are purged from the bureaucracy; and trade unions are dissolved and replaced with Nazi organisations.

 First World War.com - Primary Documents - Bryce Report into German Atrocities in Belgium, 12 May 1915
Possibly it is to be regarded as part of the policy of punishment for Belgian resistance and general terrorization of the inhabitants--possibly as a desire to show these people to the population of a German city and thus to confirm the belief that the Belgians had shot at their troops.
On the morning of the 23rd, about 5 o'clock, firing ceased, and almost immediately afterwards a party of Germans came to the house.
This witness asked a German officer why her husband had been shot, and he told her that it was because two of her sons had been in the civil guard and had shot at the Germans.

 BBC NEWS Europe German poll rivals break the ice
Speaking after Thursday's talks, SPD chairman Franz Muentefering said his party was keen to have more detailed talks with the CDU, but he stressed again that Mr Schroeder should remain chancellor.
Mr Schroeder argues that the conservative bloc is actually made up of two parties - the CDU and its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU) - and that the Social Democrats are the strongest single party.
But both have ruled out any deal with the new Left party, which was created by disaffected SPD politicians and former East German communists.

 Chapter 15-THE ARDENNES: BATTLE OF THE BULGE
What had happened was this: German engineers had reinforced a small footbridge east of Trois Ponts, at least to the point that it would sustain a self-propelled gun carriage, and since the night of 18 December supply trucks and reinforcements had used the bridge to slip between the two American-held towns.
When the German plans to reach the Hohes Venn on the second day of the counteroffensive miscarried and the regular German formations were checked so far from the Meuse as to make a dash by this special task force out of the question, Colonel Skorzeny sought for some other road to fame and glory.
The second report reaching V Corps was initiated by the 393d Infantry and was circumstantial enough to indicate a German penetration on the front of the 99th Division.

 Germany Must Perish! (book)
For to the German, Nazi or not, the Mailed Fist is stimulating and meaningful as symbol of all the aims and aspirations of his nation as the Statue of Liberty is to the American.
Seeck, a noted German historian, writes with pride that the Germans of ancient days were notorious for their villainy and treachery and "their faithlessness became almost proverbial with the Romans," (note 5) who found that the Germans were adept at breaking a pact or a peace whenever it best suited them to so do.
Germanism -- the theory of a master race of Germans destined to enslave a weak world by force and brutality -- had been an unvoiced doctrine of German belief since tribal days until the latter part of the last century when it reached its maturity by becoming fashioned into a vast and well-organized movement.

Germans -of the highest racial purity, were to be the master race -supremacy of German race.
Hitler's party benefited by the economic collapse of the 1923 massive inflation; exploited it by holding mass protest rallies despite a ban on rallies by local police.

 Belgian Union - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the center of Europe, it consists of 3 large language groups: Dutch speaking Belgians or Flemings (north Belgians, about 59% of the population), French speaking Belgians or Walloons (south Belgians, about 40% of the population), and German speaking Belgians (East Belgians, about 1% of the population).
Throughout the years, Belgium has been reformed into some kind of "double" federal state: there is a federal Belgian governement, the territory is divided in 3 Communities (Flemish, Walloon, German-speaking), and concurrent with this division also exists another one, the Regions (Flemish, Walloon, Brussels-Capital Region).
The Belgian Union is a centrist party for reconciliation between the language groups, promoting multilingualism, and 1 government and 1 parliament for all Belgians without the division by language (which they consider as racist as a division by skin colour).
