Comparison - Nilfgaard and the Third Reich (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt)

Very well noticed, so it seemed to me too.

But racism flourishes more in the north, Nilfgaard treats other races with disdain, but not as harshly as the northerners treat the same non-humans. And genocides does not suit, Nilfgaard looks more like Kaiser's Germany for me. But not as a Nazi.

There are all racists, everyone hates each other in every village they look askance at the witcher, and one wants to arrange genocide there

the main characteristic of the Third Reich is Nazism (social-nationalism). in the nilfgraard there is no such thing, for all the lands that the blacks seized, they, let's say, "care"
and they have

no hatred of any race, apart from the fact that almost all people do not like nonhumans

Agree !

The first presentation of Nilfgaard when he read books was the same.

Interestingly, the official language of the empire is the Nilfgaardian dialect of the Elvish language, and the elves in the northern world are, to put it mildly, oppressed.

Nilfgaard is more like the USSR than the 3rd Reich.

and even more to the Roman Empire =)

Maybe national socialism? and to be honest, there is nothing to fight for like the School of the Cat, even though they are KROOTS developed and have created so many different atmospheres.

Nazism is just in Radovid, he burns inhumans and witches, and in Nilfgard everything is fine with this

We are waiting for the armor of the Stirlitz school ...

Nilfgaard's special language is Elder Speech, so it looks more like Elvish than German.

it seemed to me that I was the only one who thought so

They look like the Germans, but I would call Radovid the third Reich. The genocide was exactly there. And in the Empire, what the soldiers raped and burned was always from all sides of the conflict. Geralt cut out two of these at a time.

Nilfgaard is such a medieval empire in a vacuum, it has absorbed the features of anything, from Rome to France during Bonaparte's time. By the way, by local standards, this is a civilized and humane state. As for the soldiers burning villages - well, the realities of war, blaharoded paladins are only in children's fairy tales.

Invaders are invaders. In general, they are good fellows, also good fellows and clans on Skellig, imbued to the bone with courage and desire for battle.
But in dialogues, I still send the emperor through x. Because my witcher is the coolest and is ready to cut a whole regiment alone)

When I first visited Oxenfurt, I heard how the Redanian commander there threatened to send his fined soldiers to the eastern front as punishment, hinting that the most difficult battles were taking place there - like Nazi Germany at one time :)

Nilfs are just like the Roman Empire, rather than Nazi Germany:

I have bad news for everyone) Sapkowski when he wrote the witcher under the nilfs meant the USSR and under the northern peoples - Germania) and the whole situation about the war in the book and the infringement of small countries - the partition of Poland between 2 strong "empires" in 39 year. He spoke about it more than once in an interview) and once he was trolled, they say, Poland is the northern countries of the Nilfs, this is Germany, and the small countries are Czechoslovakia)) but he did not appreciate the joke)
