Historical Context:
The swastika is a symbol that has been used for centuries by cultures all over the world. However, it is most commonly associated with the Nazi Party, which used it as a symbol of its ideology. The Nazi Party believed that the Aryan race was superior to all other races, and they sought to create a German empire that would be ruled by the Aryans.
The swastika was used extensively by the Nazi Party in propaganda and on uniforms. It was also used as a symbol of the Nazi SS, the Nazi Party's elite paramilitary force.
The Nazi Party was defeated in World War II, and the swastika is now considered a symbol of hate and intolerance. It is illegal to display the swastika in many countries.
