Those words bring into mind images of destruction, devastation and death. Broken families, broken homes and broken lives; the terror inflicted by Hitler and his minions were cold and unthinking. The prisoners in those camps were treated not like humans, not even like animals but as 'mistakes' or 'messes' that could be cleaned up without a second thought.
In his mind, Hitler thought he was right. He or his followers did not express any guilt or remorse at taking so many lives and for me, that is far worse. To the Nazis, they were correct and were fulfilling their duty. It is scary what can be accomplished when people believe so strongly in a certain ideal.

The what-ifs vary: what if Hitler served in the navy in the First World war, what if the Russians pre-empted Barbarossa and attacked Germany first, what if Turkey joined the Axis, what if the Germans got the atom bomb in 1944, what if Rommel defeated the D-day landings, deposed Hitler, and the war devolved into a one-front struggle with the Soviets? Most of these are interesting and seem to have been written with the general reader in mind; a few do suffer from getting bogged down with detail. On the whole it is engaging stuff, if recent military history is your thing, and you do come away with an improved awareness that the Second World War was a closer-run thing than most people realise nowadays.

If you are looking for simplicity, and a fun theme, then Secret Hitler is a great intro into social deduction.
If you are looking for complexity, then the classes in Avalon are much better.
