[edit intro]

Anschluß (or Anschluss) is the German word for "unification". It is the specific term for the formal annexation by Nazi Germany of Austria, then a federal state, into the Third Reich on 13 March 1938. The Nazis chose the title for propaganda purposes to recast coerced annexation as peaceful joinder. The union is also called the Anschluß Österreichs.
