The possibility of Germany going Nazi again is actually much more real than most people realize. Currently, there is growing anti-German sentiment across Europe (especially Eastern Europe) due to Angela Merkel's perceived role in the migrant crisis. Poland's semi-nationalistic government is starting to state that Germany is entirely to blame for the migrant crisis, and even going as far as implying that it should be punished for it. This brings back echoes of 1918-19, when Germany was given sole blame for WWI and had harsh terms imposed on it at Versailles. This in the end would be one of the three main catalysts (along with the Great Depression and the rise of Communism) that made Hitler's rise to power possible.
So now the question is, would we see history repeat if Germany once again has harsh terms imposed on it, this time due to the migrant crisis? And if so, what role, if any, would this play in the CoC war? I actually believe that should Germany turn hard nationalist over a perceived national humiliation, we may see
two World Wars this century instead of one. Perhaps World War IV would be, in a way, a continuation of the CoC War, much like how World War II was, in a way, a continuation of World War I.
One more thing. During World War II, the Nazis were
very pro-Islam. Hitler sought to recruit Muslims into the SS divisions operating in the Balkans, and worked with Muslim leaders in the Middle East to provoke anti-Allied uprisings in the region. He also admired Islam as a religion, stating that it was superior to Christianity due to its emphasis on "holy warfare," and even going as far as cursing Charles Martel for his victory at Poitiers.
