Adolf Hitler's War

Betrayed, Stalin fights the German army in the Soviet states. The German occupation policies lead to the first extermination policies of 'undesirables'.

About the programme: Hitler was determined to extend Germany eastwards to make Germany a great continental power. Hitler's policy, based on a racist ideology, planned to eliminate or enslave the population that stood in the way of the Reich. It was this determination that propelled the world into war. Hitler believed that the conquest territories including Poland, the Belarussian and Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republics, and the Baltic States "for the German people" was his destiny.
