How would Europe have looked if Nazi Germany had been victorious in World War II? Between 1933 and 1945, Hitler developed a vision for an infrastructure, architecture, racial hierarchy, labor force, and Lebensraum-the acquiring of "living space"-among many other plans. Some of these were implemented during his leadership as the German Wehrmacht expanded the Nazi sphere of influence, but what were the unrealized plans for a Europe dominated by the Third Reich? The Nazis planned to establish a racially based social order across Eastern Europe, with former German soldiers running farms worked by slave labor. Germany and Japan would carve up the Soviet Union and Asia between them. Berlin would be at the center of this new empire, renamed Welthauptstadt Germania, a world capital city designed on grandiose, neo-classical lines. This German-dominated Europe would be connected by a new rail and autobahn infrastructure. Arranged in chapters covering topics such as leadership, war, physical infrastructure, empire building, race, culture, and weaponry, Germany's Secret Masterplan reveals the true scale of Hitler's vision for a Greater Germany and a world dominated by Nazi ideology. Packed with easy-to-understand maps, diagrams, graphs, and illustrations, Germany's Secret Masterplan is an essential reference for anyone who wants to know how the Nazis sought to reshape the world.
