Was Hitler planning to take over the world?

Answer 1

Answer:

No, he did not.

The German war objective was to conquer lands in Eastern Europe and the area within Russia between it's western border and the Ural Mountains. This land was supposed to be settled and cultivated by Germans and to serve as living space for German people, like the North American and Australian continents serve as living space for English people today. Western nations were attacked either because they were of great strategic importance and could not be lost to British occupation, or because they were, like Britain and France, aggressive towards Germany and would have interfered in the German plan to conquer the East of Europe. These Western and Southern European countries as well as possibly a few Eastern European countries not given in this list; Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Denmark, Norway, Greece and Crete, were not to be occupied permanently, but only for as long as deemed necessary for Germany to reach its objectives in the East without military interference from those nations. The Northern African nations were also occupied for strategic reasons, to keep Italy in the war and to possibly bring Britain to terms or capitulation by cutting off the Suez Canal.

Answer:

Yes he did.

Answer 2

Answer:No, he did not. One can say it's a matter of personal belief and speculation, but it cannot be based on fact, the popular belief, that Germany wanted to and would have attempted to invade every single country on the planet, with giant airships dropping paratroopers over America, Panzers rolling down the Savannah into South Africa, and then kill everyone who wasn't white.

The German war objective was to conquer lands in Eastern Europe and the area within Russia between it's western border and the Ural Mountains. This land was supposed to be settled and cultivated by Germans and or other "Aryan" (Northern European/Viking/Germanic) peoples and to serve as living space for German people, like the North American and Australian continents serve as living space for English people today. Western nations were attacked either because they were of great strategic importance and could not be lost to British occupation, or because they were, like Britain and France, aggressive towards Germany and would have interfered in the German plan to conquer the East of Europe. These Western and Southern European countries as well as possibly a few Eastern European countries not given in this list; Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Denmark, Norway, Greece and Crete, were not to be occupied permanently, but only for as long as deemed necessary for Germany to reach its objectives in the East without military interference from those nations. The Northern African nations were also occupied for strategic reasons, to keep Italy in the war and to possibly bring Britain to terms or capitulation by cutting off the Suez Canal.

The status of world power or the most powerful nation in the world could simply be achieved by having more power than your competition.

Answer:

yes he was planning on taking over the world

Answer 3

Answer:

Did he have such a plan?

No, he did not. If he did, it has not been uncovered yet. One can say it's a matter of personal belief and speculation, but it cannot be based on fact, the popular belief, that Germany wanted to and would have attempted to invade every single country on the planet, with giant airships dropping paratroopers over America, Panzers rolling down the Savannah into South Africa, and then kill everyone who wasn't white. At least there isn't conclusive evidence yet.

Would this have been plausible? What would the point have been?

The German war objective was to conquer lands in Eastern Europe and the area within Russia between it's western border and the Ural Mountains. This land was supposed to be settled and cultivated by Germans and or other "Aryan" (Northern European/Viking/Germanic) peoples and to serve as living space for German people, like the North American and Australian continents serve as living space for English people today. Western nations were attacked either because they were of great strategic importance and could not be lost to British occupation, or because they were, like Britain and France, aggressive towards Germany and would have interfered in the German plan to conquer the East of Europe. These Western and Southern European countries as well as possibly a few Eastern European countries not given in this list; Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Denmark, Norway, Greece and Crete, were not to be occupied permanently, but only for as long as deemed necessary for Germany to reach its objectives in the East without military interference from those nations.

The Northern African nations were also occupied for strategic reasons, to keep Italy in the war and to possibly bring Britain to terms or capitulation by cutting off the Suez Canal.

Some middle Eastern nations were sympathetic to the German war effort, and saw their approach as an opportunity to rid themselves of British and French rule. If these nations were reached by the German Army, fuel could then have been redirected to reach the German armies advancing into the Soviet Union.

It is likely that a victorious Germany would have desired certain other international possessions, so it is possible that they would have demanded or taken certain oil producing regions in the Middle East so as to be on par with the British and French empires. Bare in mind that the objective of Germany was not to destroy the British Empire, so whether the entire Middle east would have been incorporated into the new German Empire is debatable. Remember that the African campaign was considered a side show by the German leadership, so whether they had their hearts set on acquiring these Middle Eastern territories is also debatable.

The status of world power or the most powerful nation in the world could simply be achieved by having more power than your competition.

Other parts of the world were regularly studied in order to determine to what degree they would have been ill or well disposed towards a victorious Germany. South America, apart from Brazil, seemed to be well disposed to the National Socialist system and many of it's policies (Not the racial and expansionist policies, though, those things did not have much relevance in South America.) The Nazis might have become involved in these nations in certain ways, just like the capitalist and socialist nations cross pollinate one another in our times, but the belief that they would have attempted a take over/occupation/conquest of these countries after they had achieved total victory in Europe, would be far fetched. Papers/documents that are discovered and that are claimed to "prove" these things are often vague and open to interpretation, and can be used by different historians to reach contrasting and polarised conclusions of their choosing.

Answer:

Hitler was going to take over all of Europe first. A lot of people forget that there were battles in Northern Africa in WWII also, what Hitler was trying to do in North Africa was gain control of the Suez Canal so he would have a direct route to the Middle East, (where he would also take over) to supply his largely mechanized army, with the Middle East's vast amounts of oil. And they have recently found written plans and maps of the reorganization of South America under Nazi control. So you cannot deny that the Axis Powers were planning to take over the world and split it 3 ways.

Answer 4

In the 1930's up until World War two ended in Europe.
