The Third Reich comprised, at its maximun extend, the current countries of Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Ukraine, as well as parts of Norway and Romania.

The Reich was stablished in 1933, comprising originally Germany proper. By 1938, the Reich had included the former countries of Austria and Bohemia.

The invasion of Poland caused the Second Great War. In the first years of the War the Reich invaded and annexed Denmark, southern Norway, and the Netherlands. Without annexation, the Reich also invaded Belgium and France

In 1942, the Reich attacked the Soviet Union, completing the invasion of Poland and invading and annexing Ukraine.

Finnaly, in 1944, when controlling a rebelion against the friendly government in Yugoslavia, the Third Reich invaded Yugoslavia and annexed Slovenia.

In 1950, ten years after the invassion, southern Norway was returned to the Norwegian Kingdom.

In 1979, a civil war started after a succession conflict, this prompted separatist movements in most regions.

In 1980, Slovenia issued an independence declaration, and was soon recognized by Yugoslavia and the United Kingdom. Originally uncontended, when the Reich government attempted to crush the rebellion in 1981, a well trained and British supported Slovenian army defeated the demoralized Reich army.

The other separatist movements were controlled by one of the fractions of the Nazi contendents. This situation lasted until 1986, when the governors of the Netherlands, Lower Saxony, Baviera and Prussia banned the Nazi party and declared the end of the Reich. Given the popular support of these Land governments, they managed to convoke most army divisions to shut down the nazi and SS offices. Soon separatist movements in Denmark, Poland and Ukraine supported the declaration. By the end of the year the Reich was over.
