Why the fuck is nazi Germany called "third Reich" so

Because it was the 3rd empire. Don't they teach you how to count in Germany?

Nazis are leftist and I don't like leftists.

Always funny to see people here saying they are nazis because they hate the leftist folks.

My question was why you often don't call it the third empire, but the "third Reich".

>>66911092
Because its quicker than saying "3rd German Empire".

>>66911092
>"Reich" simply means empire.
it means realm you degenerate cuck

>implying that Germany was a Herrschaftsgebiet/Imperium all the way from 33 to 45

lmao, it was not. It was just Germany.

>>66911709
"Third empire" would make more sense, wouldn't be long and means exactly the same.

>>66911092
the winner decided you were called the "third reich"

German """""""""empire""""""""""", that's why we say 3rd reich

>>66911092
The third empire sounds too awesome

>>66912026
>implying any country isn't a Herrschaftsgebiet

Also you can name your country how ever the fuck you want.
The "Reich" was also based on the tradition of the German Empire.

>>66912343
Reich = empire.
It is the fucking same thing. You also would have to call it "third """""""reich""""""""

>>66912543
>the tradition of the German Empire.
yes, and traditionally empire meant "realm".

>>66912662
"Realm" means Königreich, the German Reich had an emperor. Also the German empire was an empire (=Imperium).
Why would the nazis call their empire Königreich?

>>66912917
Really liked your pre-WW1 system of government ngl

>>66912917
nah, that would be Königreich, not Reich.

>>66912917
Koninksrijk is the rijk of the koning.

>>66912032
which empire?
german empire.

what word means german empire?
reich

Because English speakers saying "Reich" implies Germany, since it's a German word.

>>66913076
Me too.
Also the whole society etc. It was one of the most glorious times in our history in my opinion.
It kind of combined traditional values and the modern industry, paired with ambitions and proud.

You're not allowed to discuss the war unless you punctuate every sentence with "das tuet mir leid.".

>>66913850
Normally they add in: "Ich habe es nicht gewusst."

>>66912032
reich sounds more evil

>>66911875
Probably because its clear what you're talking about... 'third empire' is not as clear

>>66913850
The correct sentence is 'däs tüt mir lëid'
