Nazism

Nazism refers to an ideology based on the practices, policies, and platforms of the German National Socialist Party (Nazi Party) of Germany. This ideology rejects 'International Socialism' and embraces 'National Socialism', it embraces Scientific Racism, Antisemitism, Social Darwinism, and Fascism. During World War One common focus among the allies was on the National Socialism part of the ideology, and the term came to represent Nazism as a whole to the Allied powers. This caused some confusion among German citizens after the war who were asked to denounce National Socialism yet found issue doing so as they still believed in that economic principle.
