Why the fuck is nazi Germany called "third Reich" so often in English? "Reich" simply means empire.
You would have to call the German Empire "German Reich" then and the "Holy Roman Empire" "Holy Roman Reich".
This is fucking retarded.

My question was why you often don't call it the third empire, but the "third Reich".
Jayden Howard
Because its quicker than saying "3rd German Empire".

>implying that Germany was a Herrschaftsgebiet/Imperium all the way from 33 to 45

"Third empire" would make more sense, wouldn't be long and means exactly the same.
Landon Sanders
the winner decided you were called the "third reich"
Grayson Nelson
German """""""""empire""""""""""", that's why we say 3rd reich
Caleb Lopez
The third empire sounds too awesome
William Richardson
>implying any country isn't a Herrschaftsgebiet
Also you can name your country how ever the fuck you want.
The "Reich" was also based on the tradition of the German Empire.
Aaron Hernandez
Reich = empire.
It is the fucking same thing. You also would have to call it "third """""""reich""""""""
John Fisher
>the tradition of the German Empire.
yes, and traditionally empire meant "realm".
Jack Phillips
"Realm" means Königreich, the German Reich had an emperor. Also the German empire was an empire (=Imperium).
Why would the nazis call their empire Königreich?
Brandon Ramirez
Really liked your pre-WW1 system of government ngl
Jeremiah Jackson
nah, that would be Königreich, not Reich.
Angel Murphy
Koninksrijk is the rijk of the koning.
Brandon Martinez
which empire?
german empire.
what word means german empire?
reich
Oliver Miller
Because English speakers saying "Reich" implies Germany, since it's a German word.
Henry Moore
Me too.
Also the whole society etc. It was one of the most glorious times in our history in my opinion.
It kind of combined traditional values and the modern industry, paired with ambitions and proud.

You're not allowed to discuss the war unless you punctuate every sentence with "das tuet mir leid.".
Brody Scott
Normally they add in: "Ich habe es nicht gewusst."
Michael Ortiz
reich sounds more evil
Anthony Collins
Probably because its clear what you're talking about... 'third empire' is not as clear
Justin Phillips
The correct sentence is 'däs tüt mir lëid'
