Alfred Rosenberg was a prominent German politician and ideologue in the Nazi Party. Born in 1893, he became known for his role as the chief racial theorist of the regime, advocating for the idea of Aryan supremacy. He held various positions, including Minister for the Eastern Occupied Territories during World War II, where he was involved in the administration of Nazi-occupied areas. Rosenberg was also the author of several influential works, including The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which outlined his views on race and culture. After the war, he was tried at the Nuremberg Trials and executed in 1946 for his crimes against humanity.
