Nazi
pseudo-science proclaimed the "Aryan race" to be the superior,
culture producing race. Of the Aryans, the fair Nordic type was considered
best.
"Adolf Hitler has led the
German people to the realization that the Nordic race is the most
creative, valuable race on earth. It has determined their nature, their
culture, and their history. Therefore, caring for the valuable Nordic
blood is their most important task. Each of us has a role. A consciousness
of our proud ancestry must be the guiding force in our behavior. We do not
want to be the last of a millennia old advanced culture that ends with us,
rather 'members of an unending chain extending from our most ancient
ancestors to our distant grandchildren' (Heinrich Himmler)."
