‘The assertion that Germany affected to conquer the world was ridiculous. The British Empire embraced 40 million square kilometers, Russia 19 million square kilometers, America 9.5 million square kilometers, whereas Germany embraced less than 600,000 square kilometers. It is quite clear who it is desires to conquer the world.’ -Adolf Hitler to Sir. Nevile Henderson, Ambassador of Great Britain to Germany, August 25, 1939
