Biography
WWII
Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany after World War I, claiming that he could deliver Germany to its glory days. Hitler did not live through as he started one of the most sinister events in history!
When the Allied forces created a serum for super soldiers, they tried to recreate the serum but the result was not a super soldier but the Red Skull. The Skull later manipulated John Hardeski into stealing the serum for him but Hardeski refused to hand it over.
Hitler then sent out his general, Baron Heinrich Zemo to kill Captain America, but the plan backfired and Zemo died instead. Hitler became desperate and began to fear that the war would be lost if he didn’t figure something out soon. Red Skull, realizing this, created the Doomsday Weapon, which would make the Axis powers invincible.
Red Skull almost succeeded in Project Doomsday, but he ended up trapped in the doomsday vortex with Captain America. Hitler eventually lost the war an committed suicide to avoid arrest.
Modern Days
The Nazis, unfortunately, did not end with Hitler’s death. Zemo’s son Baron Helmut Zemo carried on the fight against Captain America and the Avengers. The Red Skull, his son Rhienholdt Kragov, and the Chameleon continued Project Doomsday, but the Six American Warriors and Spider-Man defeated them. The Nazis are responsible for the creation of Magneto, and Xavier’s handicap as Magneto was a Holocaust survivor and due to this became a villain.
Real Life Nazi Party
During Nazi party rule, Germany began World War II by invading Poland in September 1939 and conquered or directly controlled most of continental Western Europe except Portugal, Spain, and Switzerland by the summer of 1940. On June 22, 1941, they invaded the Soviet Union, betraying the 1939 Nazi-Soviet non-aggression pact, and came close to capturing Moscow in December 1941. However, its fortunes in the war declined by late 1942 and early 1943 when the Allies defeated Nazi forces at Stalingrad and at both El-Alamein and Tunisia in North Africa.
The Nazi regime in Germany ended with World War II in 1945, when the party was declared a criminal organisation by the victorious Allied Powers. Since 1945, Nazism has been outlawed as a political ideology in Germany, as are forms of iconography and propaganda from the Nazi era. Nevertheless, neo-Nazis continue to operate in Germany and several other countries. Following World War II and the Holocaust, the term Nazi and symbols associated with Nazism (such as the Swastika) acquired extremely negative connotations in Europe and North America.
