Hatred and discrimination for Jewish people, it sadly reoccurs over and over throughout history and into the present day, with the Nazis and their actions representing the most infamous (and most often depicted), example.
An evil organization is a group of super-villans who are hell bent on world domination or something of a similar nature. Usually defeated by a single Spy/Superhero/Average Joe/small child.
Fascism is a extremist totalitarian, nationalistic political ideology. Within video games, various fascist regimes are often portrayed as the enemy within the Second World War.
Members of the German National Socialist Party, which controlled Germany from January 1933 unto the end of World War II in May 1945. Nazis and characters inspired by them are often used as villains in video games.
A common concept used in World War II games, where the limited knowledge of everything the Nazis did helps create an alternative history.
Nazi Zombies are a combination of two of gaming's main bad guys, Nazis and Zombies.

A xenophobic, evil and totalitarian alien race who usually invade lots and lots of space Frances or space Russias. They normally have a Fuhrer type leader who wants to conquer the universe like Hitler.
Terrorists can be found terrorizing people all over the world of video games. While there is no consensus on how to define the term "terrorism", terrorists are generally considered to be people who express their ideals through violence.
An alliance of nations who opposed the Allied powers in World War II. They included Germany, Italy, Japan, and many others.
Lasting from 1939 to 1945, The second World War was a conflict between the Allies and the Axis. It was the most devastating conflict in human history.
A devastating future war in many game's narratives. Some games take place in a post-World War III setting where humanity struggles to live with the consequences of WWIII, while other games are centred around preventing global warfare from ever happening.
