Chapter Three
Aunt Sophie
Freyung Square,Vienna
Thursday 15 May 1930
 
In this chapter, we meet Bekka and Otto's cousin  Sophie Hohenberg, her husband Fritz Nostitz-Rieneck, and their children Erwein, Franz, Alois, and Sophie in their home in Vienna's First District, and discover the family plan for Bekka. The family and servants' instinctual respect for Otto as Emperor-in-Exile, as well as the familial piety are explored. We learn about the family's connections to the Jesuit Order, and the dangers facing Bekka's mother and other Germanic people in Tyrol from Mussolini's fascist govermnet. We explore the origins of Nazism and meet the major players in the Axis and an alternative possibility for Fürher: Adolf Hitler, Sepp Dietrich, Heinrich Himmler, Walther Nauhaus, and Rudolf von Sebottendorff.

The South Tyrol Option - Why South Tyrol (Sudtyrol), where Bekka was born, was such a political hot potato
The Thule Society and the Rise of Nazism Where do our modern ideologies come from? Fascism, National Socialism, Marxism and all the other ideologies we have to day have their origins in the ancient past, and this video maps out the philosophical origins to build a timeline of some of the most important figures in history, from Plato to Kant, Hegel and Marx, to Hitler, Lenin, Mussolini and Julius Evola. Very important to understand the catchphrases used in Mein Kampf and Nazism.

From Plato to Hitler: The Ideological Origins of National Socialism In this video, we'll learn how Hitler's "Struggle" and "Blood" concepts were nothing new, but ancient religious ideas given a new twist. Further to the religion of Nazism. Yes. You heard that right. It's a religion.

Tochter des Reichs (Daughter of Empires) - a novel of Occupied Austria

By

 This story began as a piece of information from a World War II history enthusiast about a relationship between Joseph (Sepp) Dietrich and an Austrian girl who was co-opted into the BDM - Bund Deutsche Mädel - the Girls' Hitler Youth. I was fascinated how someone from the Austrian upperclass could be indoctrinated into being 'a good Nazi'. This case is not the only one in the annals of Nazi Germany; 'Aryan-looking' children in all parts of occupied Europe were so co-opted, often taken to Germany directly. This interest broadened into the questions 'how does indoctrination happen?' and 'how effective is it?' This story is the result of that exploration. Major incidents are the core of the story I first discovered. In this day and age, it is necessary for me to make the following disclaimer: I am in no way a Nazi, neo- Nazi, admirer of fascism, or any other extremist right wing ideology. If you are that sort of person, please do not cite my work as pr...

We discover the only row Otto ever had with his mother was over whether to charge into Vienna and t...
