Ideology

“Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.” - Adolf Hitler

Nazism was the ideology and practice of the Nazi Party in Germany. The term "Nazi" is an acronym for the German words National Socialist (NAtionalsoZIalistische). Nazism was a combination of the beliefs of fascism, racism, and anti-Semitism. In their minds the Aryans had racial superiority to all others, and the anti-Semitics especially targeted Jews.  Nazis believed in extreme loyalty to their leader and government. Nazis were strongly militaristic; they followed the belief that the only way to achieve what you want is through war and violence. By being militaristic the Nazis dreamed of having a purely Aryan country and more lebensraum, living space, for their perfect race to live and grow.
