What were the Nazi's aims?

1. A strong Germany

   • strong government to overturn the Treaty of Versailles
   • strong army to make it a great military power (like before the war)
   • strong thriving economy
   • rearm Germany, possible war against France

2. A racial Germany

   • Aryan race: blond and blue-eyed
   • racially pure Germany
   • getting rid of racial minorites = Jews by:
     • removing them from positions of powers
     • hounding them out of the country
     • isolation from Aryans

3. People's Community

   • wanted all 'racially pure' Germans to feel they were part of the Volk
   • loyalty to the German people, Fuhrer and Germany
   • all other claims on people's loyalities to be removed
     • churches, political parties, swimming clubs and choirs would be dissolved or taken over by Nazis
   • no room for free speech - conversations would be controlled
