History- FOUNDING- Hohe Reich was founded after the failure of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. Hohe meaning High, and Reich meaning
Empire, The founders wanted to finally realize Hitler's dream fo a Thousand Year Reich. The former Third Reich, after its loss in WWII, was thrust into a period of democracy untill the year 2010. With the rise of the Nationalistische Partei the world would once again see the rise of a Charismatic leader that would lead this "Fourth Reich" into is coveted Thousand Year Reign.
ESTABLISHMENT- The establishment of Hohe Reich came after the liquidation of the former Democratic catastrophy that was Germany. Under the leadership of the first Führer Adolf Grynszpan the former Reichstag became the new Maximal Kaiserlicher Rat or High Imperial Council. The politicians and leaders of old are to be executed on the one year anniversary of the establishment of Hohe Reich. The Coup d'état that took place was brought on by High Military Commander and Party Leader Adolf Grynszpan to erase communism and establish the Fourth Reich.
