      It is the Fourth Reich

      Oh wait, that's just post-WW2 West Germany

      There were more Nazis in West Germany’s justice department after WWII than during Third Reich for example

      Fully 77 percent of senior ministry officials in 1957 were former members of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party, a higher proportion even than during the 1933-45 Third Reich, the study found.

      Nazis in post-WW2 Germany’s government

      From 1949 to 1973, 90 of the 170 leading lawyers and judges in the then-West German Justice Ministry had been members of the Nazi Party.

      Of those 90 officials, 34 had been members of the Sturmabteilung (SA), Nazi Party paramilitaries who aided Hitler’s rise and took part in Kristallnacht, a night of violence that is believed to have left 91 Jewish people dead.

      Alot of nazis basically kept doing what they already did like in the US’s operation bloodstone.
