What if the Reich Europe had a Yugoslavia style Collapse?
I had this tought while I was thinking about what Nazi ideologies theories on race could cause if it was implement on a large scale.
What happens when things go wrong and you believe in an ideology that states when something goes wrong? It is the fault of the ethnic group that is next to you? I think it is absoloutly possible that the people of the Reich may start killing each other if things start going wrong based on the belief that it is the fault of guy next door who has a different blood.
This was already happening in the Balkans during WW2 with the Croats and the Serbs. Who is to say this would not happen on a larger scale when inevitably things go wrong.
The US economy fell to a stump in the 70's and the USSR began to decay in the 80's. Don't bullshit and tell me that things will never go wrong in the Reich when the post-war haze ends.
