Germany at War is a historical documentary series produced by CLA GmbH that takes a comprehensive look at Germany's involvement in the world wars. With Brian Matthews as the narrator, the show provides an in-depth analysis of the events that led to the rise of the Nazi party and its disastrous impact on the world.

The show is divided into captivating episodes that explore different aspects of Germany's military campaigns. From the invasion of Poland to the Battle of Stalingrad, each episode is packed with exclusive footage, authentic archival materials, and interviews with renowned historians and experts.

The first episode of Germany at War takes the viewers back to the early 20th century, to a time when Germany was struggling to recover from defeat in World War I. It sets the stage for the rise of the Nazi party and their ideology of supremacy, which culminated in the Second World War. The episode delves into the political and economic factors that paved the way for Hitler's rise to power and his plans for territorial expansion.

Subsequent episodes of the show examine different military campaigns and battles that defined Germany's role in the war. As the show progresses, viewers get to witness Hitler's megalomania and his disastrous strategic decisions that led to the defeat of Germany.

One of the standout features of Germany at War is the use of original footage and audio recordings from the time. The show also makes use of high-quality reenactments, which not only help viewers visualize the events but also add a layer of authenticity to the production. Expert commentary and analysis from historians and other experts are also included, providing context and depth to the narrative.

The show is not without its weaknesses, however. Some episodes feel rushed, with the documentary covering too much ground in too little time. Additionally, while the show's focus is primarily on Germany's military campaigns, it does not delve much into the social and cultural aspects of life in Germany during the war.

Despite these shortcomings, Germany at War is an engaging and informative documentary series that offers a comprehensive look at one of the darkest periods in world history. It provides a balanced perspective on Germany's role in the war, focusing on both the military and political aspects of the conflict. The show is a must-watch for anyone interested in World War II and the events that led up to it.
