During WWII, the Croatian Fascists' actions were so horrible, they even terrified the Nazis!

Genocide and Nazi Germany usually go hand-in-hand, but there was a fascist group that terrified even them! Croatia’s Ustase group took power before and held it during World War II.


During that time they were fanatically Catholic, extremely conservative, and extremely racist. They were so fanatical about nationalism that they began a movement aimed for a racially “pure” Croatia by removing the Serbs, Jews, and Romani people.


Along with participating in the Holocaust with Germany, Croatia also began to systematically and brutally murder their own citizens. Hundreds were burned alive in their own homes and thousands more were taken by truck to be executed and dumped in mass graves.


But that isn’t the half of it. Primitive weapons were often used such as hatchets to smash skulls. Children were impaled, women’s breasts were cut off, people were often burned alive, and it wasn’t uncommon for noses and ears to be cut off.


It is for these actions that even the Nazi’s were disgusted, a hard thing to do!
