The Nazi party conducted a purge of its more 'extreme' elements (some were simply opposed to Hitler but some were really out there politics wise.) This event occurred in 1934 became known as 'Night of the Long Knives.'
So... the Nazis.

you can talk about how they manipulated the democratic system in germany to legitmately be the ruling party, why is this interesting because alot of people think they just showed up and did a military coup or something along those lines.
or talk about how the government was pretty much a power struggle within the government between top nazis in the party and how hitler just sat back and watched due to him believing in survival of the fittest to the point that he let it infect the government itself

The second atomic bomb made by the Us was made with German plutonium.
At the time, only Germany could make plutonium. But they realised that they couldn't make a nuclear weapon in time. They sent the plutonium to the Japanese so they use it to make a nuclear weapon and use it against the US. But WWII ended before the plutonium reached Japan. The Nazi in the submarine carrying the plutonium surrendered to the Americans because they weren't that big a bunch of dicks. The Japanese scientist Hara-Kiried themselves in the sub. and the american used the German plutonium to nuke Japan a second time !
God bless america.

The nazis were quite obssesed with health and hygiene. It was part of their ideology of purity and "cleaning up" their country.
Hitler also considered himself an artist rather then a politician and during his rise to power he persecuted what he called "depraved" arts like german expressionism.

Hitler was very much a pro animal rights activist. He loved his doggie. As a result the Nazi empire was the first to ban vivisection. Before then it was common practice.
You would probably find this site quite intriguing come to think of it. http://listverse.com/2011/01/31/top-10-things-the-nazis-got-right/theparsonski said:
The Nazi's had a system of Wünder weapons they were working on thigh ranged from the atomic bomb, V2 rockets, and even a plan to create zombies. Other interesting facts you should include are the 1932 Olympics and how the Jews were treated better and Hitler's hatred if a non Aryan won a a medal.
Edit: Iforgot to mention that under Hitler's plan to exterminate the mentally insane his own niece was one of the victims. Hitler was also so paranoid about assassination that his own personal train had two triple-A anti aircraft guns to defend against arial assault.

From what I've heard, Adolf Hitler was into painting. He wasn't very successful when he tried to make it into a career however.
The Nazi wonder weapons, as a rule, were rubbish. Most of them could never work, and those that did tended to be less impressive than ordinary stuff. There were exceptions, like the Stg 44 assault rifle, though.Darren716 said:
In regards to the Olympics, the US complained about German racism towards Jews, and the German reply tended to be along the lines of "We don't tell you how to treat your negroes, don't tell us how to treat our Jews".
A lot of black US athletes went to the games, but were treated badly when they got back home by their own government, not the Germans so much.
Actually, they choose "Man/Person/Thing of the Year" by whoever was the most influential, not who was a good guy. Time was very clear that they did not consider Hitler a hero. It's still interesting to bring up (especially if you can find a cover) as they haven't done an out-and-out villain in a while.Torrasque said:
Also: he liked to draw Disney characters, not just watch the movies.
Behold the horror from Hitler's (probably) own hand!
From what I have heard, if Hitler had not embarked on the campaign of genocide that he did, he would have been remembered as one of the greatest leaders in European History. I hear that Germany at that time was in a major economic downturn due to still feeling the scars of WWI, and Hitler was a driving force for revitalizing Germany. If this is true, it is a terrible shame he chose to do what he did.Torrasque said:
