ANSCHLUSS
Anschluss
The Anschluss, also known as the Anschluss Österreichs, was the occupation and annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany in 1938. This was in contrast with the Anschluss movement, which had been attempted since as early as 1918 when the Republic of German-Austria attempted union with Germany but was forbidden by the Treaty of Saint Germain and Treaty of Versailles peace treaties.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Anschluss
