Black Order

The Black Order (German: Schwarze Ordnung) was a country beyond the Gate, bordered by the Fourth Reich in its southern border.

The country itself is completely administered and operated by the Waffen-SS and the SS Ehrengarde who remain loyal to Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler. The Black Order was formed in order to destroy Helga Mörder and her Fourth Reich in order to successfully place in motion his plans to build a massive German army to attack Berlin directly.

The population is controlled through fear and brutality. But unlike the Fourth Reich's goal to exterminate all natives, Himmler saw he had no choice but to indoctrinate and force natives, non-human and non-German, to act as cannon fodder while his actual troops only partook in battles where victory was assured against the much larger and more powerful Reich. Due to Himmler's desperation, almost every single industry was converted to help the war effort.

Overview
The Nazis are a military junta that controlled a quarter of the upper part of Arthursland. Due to their smaller size in both manpower and territory, they had no choice but to relax the Nazi doctrines in order to build up a stronger military precense through extensive recruitment of local populations.

Ideology
The Black Order, like the Fourth Reich, follow the ideology of National Socialism, led by the Führer Heinrich Himmler. Heinrich's idea with the Black Order was to use the Continent to develop and create a giant army in secret in order to launch a massive attack against Berlin in order to regain control of the Reich and restore Nazi Germany. This plan was halted by Helga's seizing power in the Fourth Reich and desiring to create her own empire within the Continent itself.

Military
The military of the Black Order was made up of entirely of Himmler's personal honour guard army and Waffen-SS who were convinced of the treachery of the Helga towards Himmler. Even with the 15,000 men of the highly-skilled and well-trained Ehrengardes, they were seriously outnumbered both by Helga and Werner's armies. Because of this, Himmler had no choice but to remove the Nazi ideologies of German purity from the Waffen-SS and start recruiting people native to the Continent, regardless of race and species, to supplement their forces, whose promises of carnage were able to convince the brutal species to their cause.
