Nazi The Nazis , short for Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei ( PROSE : " Just War " ) or NSDAP , ( AUDIO : " The Alchemists " ) were a racist , fascist , and expansionist political party in Germany . They came to power under Adolf Hitler on 30 January 1933 when Hitler became Chancellor . ( AUDIO : " Neverland " ) World War II broke out on 1 September 1939 . ( PROSE : " Just War " ; AUDIO : " An Eye For Murder " ) George Wilson believed that the Nazis , along with the Allied Forces , were pawns of the Committee . ( AUDIO : " The Conspiracy " ) Foreshadowing . In 1903 , after receiving a wealth of information from the future , Grigori Rasputin foresaw , among other things , Hitler and the Nazis . ( AUDIO : " The Wanderer " ) Pre - war . The Nazis were influenced first by the Timewyrm , who took up residence in Adolf Hitler ' s mind , and then the War Chief and the War Lord s , who detected the Timewyrm ' s psychic powers within him and hoped to use him to conquer the universe . The Seventh Doctor , by becoming a personal advisor to Hitler , was able to first expose the machinations of the War Lords and later expel the Timewyrm ( which left Hitler disoriented enough to allow the Dunkirk evacuation ) . ( PROSE : " " ) The Nazis gained popularity by feeding on the discontent caused by the indignities and troubles suffered by Germany after World War I . The " Sturmabteilung " , Hitler ' s private army , effectively replaced Germany ' s police force , suppressing subversive Bolshevist elements and restoring law and order . The Nazis stood in the elections in July and November 1932 and although they failed both times to win a majority , Hitler eventually became Chancellor the following January . The First Doctor and Susan Foreman felt that if interwar Germany was more economically stable , the Nazis may not have come to power . ( AUDIO : " The Alchemists " ) In 1936 , Nazi sympathisers , including King Edward VIII and Sir Oswald Mosley , attempted a coup to place a Nazi - friendly government in charge of Great Britain , but were foiled by the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown . ( PROSE : " Players " ) That same year , the Seventh Doctor and Melanie Bush met Nazi scientist Emil Hartung , and accidentally gave him ideas that would lead to the development of a stealth bomber . ( PROSE : " Just War " ) World War II . In 1938 , the Nemesis statue influenced Hitler to annex Austria . ( TV : " Silver Nemesis " ) This event was later considered by some to be the start of the War , although open hostilities did not begin until the invasion of Poland in 1939 . In 1940 , the German Air Force began an air campaign known as the Battle of Britain . The campaign was designed to establish air superiority over the British and destroy their defences . By 1941 , the Nazis had been prevented from successfully invading Britain by the Shaker s , who conducted a terrorist war against German forces as part of a secret agreement with a faction of the British government . ( PROSE : " Losing the Audience " ) Despite this , they were able to launch a scaled - back version of Operation Sea Lion and conquer the Channel Islands . From there , they intended to use Hartung ' s weapon to force an Allied surrender . Although accounts differ , either Chris Cwej and Roz Forrester ( PROSE : " Just War " ) or Bernice Summerfield and Jason Kane ( AUDIO : " Just War " ) managed to destroy the bomber . Having failed to establish air superiority , the Nazis turned to a terror bombing campaign known as the Blitz . The Doctor and his companions were involved in the Blitz a number of times , although rarely engaging the Nazis any more directly than through their bombs . ( TV : " The Empty Child " , " Captain Jack Harkness " , " Victory of the Daleks " ) Working toward their own agenda , Dalek s did destroy several Nazi planes over the skies of London during this time . ( TV : " Victory of the Daleks " ) In one instance , an attempted invasion by the Cybermen , using the Blitz as a cover , led the Seventh Doctor , Ace , and an American private detective to expose secret Nazi operatives within Britain . ( PROSE : " Illegal Alien " ) In 1941 , a group of Nazis led by Koenig attempted to use a device which would block British radio signals , allowing German ships to attack without being detected .

The plan was defeated by the Third Doctor and the French Resistance . ( COMIC : " Timebenders " ) Later in 1942 , Nazis were present in Stalingrad . They killed two Russian soldiers , Piotr and Yusef , during an invasion of Isabella Zemanova ' s home . ( PROSE : " The Beast of Stalingrad " ) During the height of the War , both the Sixth Doctor with Brigadier Lethbridge - Stewart ( PROSE : " The Shadow in the Glass " ) and the Seventh Doctor with Ace ( PROSE : " " ) met repeatedly with Hitler and other high Nazi officials . In 1944 , the Seventh Doctor and Ace arrived at Colditz Castle , a Nazi POW camp , and accidentally left behind a laser , which allowed the Nazis to turn defeat into victory and conquer most of the world . ( AUDIO : " Colditz " ) In this alternate timeline , the Nazis captured the TARDIS . Elizabeth Klein , an ardent Nazi , brought the TARDIS back to 1944 and inadvertently allowed the Eighth Doctor to restore history , stranding her in the prime reality . ( AUDIO : " Klein ' s Story " ) Elizabeth Klein subsequently became a companion to the Seventh Doctor , but plotted to restore her original timeline . The final outcome of a series of manipulations led to Elizabeth Klein the Nazi being replaced by Elizabeth Klein the UNIT hero . ( AUDIO : " A Thousand Tiny Wings " , " Survival of the Fittest " , " The Architects of History " ) In one alternate timeline dubbed " Germany Alpha " , the Nazis were totally victorious over the whole world , having had all their enemies " sent East " . Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun had conceived a child , August . The Great House Mirraflex sent a Cwej - Prime called " Herr Abschrift " to this timeline to offer these Nazis the ability to travel to other Earths throughout the multiverse , leading to the Council of Hitlers and the Greater German Reich which spanned thousands of universes . However , this Reich fell under the combined forces of the Empire of Empires , led by Marcus Americanius Scriptor from Roma I , with the support of Faction Paradox and possible enemy agents . ( PROSE : " Warlords of Utopia " ) In 1945 , Hitler committed suicide , and the Nazis surrendered shortly thereafter . ( PROSE : " The Shadow in the Glass " ) Neo - Nazis . In 1983 , neo - Nazis firebombed the home of Ace ' s friend Manisha Purkayastha because she was from Pakistan . Thinking about this , Ace later lamented how Nazi ideologies had managed to survive beyond the Second World War . ( PROSE : " Illegal Alien " , TV : " Ghost Light " ) In 1988 , a neo - Nazi group led by De Flores attempted to take control of the Nemesis statue and use it to establish a Fourth Reich , but they were foiled by the Seventh Doctor and Ace . ( TV : " Silver Nemesis " ) In 2001 , another neo - Nazi organisation , led by Adolf Hitler , Jr . , pretending to be his father preserved by stolen Vvormak technology , planned to conquer the world with the help of demonic imps , but the Sixth Doctor and the Brigadier managed to foil the plans . ( PROSE : " The Shadow in the Glass " ) In 2593 , on Tyler ' s Folly , Bernice Summerfield encountered the SSSSSSS ( " Stella Stora Sigma Schutz - Staffel SturmSoldaten " ) which was considered the most ineffective Nazi group since the Outer Hebridean National Party .
