Third Reich

A Dictionary of Contemporary World History | 2004 | | Copyright

Third Reich (‘Third Empire’) A term used by Nazi propaganda to identify Nazi Germany as the final (and inevitable) stage in a historical process, from the loose federation of German territories in the Holy Roman Empire (until 1806), to the Second German Empire created by Bismarck 1866/71, which collapsed in 1918. The Third Reich, despite the claim that it would last for a thousand years, lasted from 1933 to 1945.
