Behind the scenes[]

The Nazi-KMT alliance was real. In the early 1930s the Nazis gave weapons, vehicles and training to the National Revolutionary Army. However, as the Second Sino-Japanese War raged on and the Japanese began to win the war, the Germans favored them instead and broke their alliance with China.
