An Austrian by birth, he enlisted in the Bavarian Army and fought for Germany during the Great War. After the war, he joined what would become the Nazi party, and after a failed coup attempt at the Munich Beer Hall Putsch, went to prison, where he wrote Mein Kampf. In 1933, he became chancellor of the Weimar Republic. A year later, he established himself as dictator of the Third Reich—and the world would never be the same. His stated objective was to seize Eastern Europe and kill off its Slavic population to make room for the ”racially superior“ Germans. The last imperial conqueror to pursue such a horrific policy was Genghis Khan—but even Khan couldn’t touch the grand scope and scale of Hitler’s cold, businesslike slaughter of passive victims. By 1945, the Third Reich was nothing more than a finely tuned killing machine. All told, Hitler was responsible for the deaths of 29 million human beings. He committed suicide in 1945.

Local collaborators—some more eager than others—were necessary both to quash resistance movements and to implement the ”Final Solution.“ Some of the worst atrocities of the Holocaust were committed by Nazi collaborators.-The Czech lands became the Protectorate of Bohemia \u0026amp; Moravia. Emil Hácha, a former judge and the president, ultimately decided to collaborate with Hitler rather than let the Nazis invade, destroy, and kill his people. German overlords made life miserable anyway, and Hácha was beaten to death in 1945.-In Slovakia, Josef Tizo, a Catholic priest who became president, zealously accepted his role as Nazi collaborator. He oversaw the deportation of tens of thousands of Slovak Jews and political dissidents. He was tried for treason after the war and put to death in 1947.-The French puppet government at Vichy was headed by Marshal Philippe Pétain, a hero of the First World War, who after the armistice of 1940 oversaw an authoritarian regime in France. After the war, he was found guilty of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment. -But no European leader is a more infamous collaborator than Norway’s Vidkun Quisling. His very name is a synonym for traitor. He was an ardent fascist happy to seize power and collaborate with his idol, Hitler. He was executed by firing squad in 1945.–This collection coins two coins and two stamps from four collaborator regimes:-Protectorate of Bohemia \u0026amp; Moravia, postage stamp with man on horseback, 1943.-Slovak Republic, 5 korun, 1939.-Vichy France, franc, aluminum, with ”travail, famille, patrie“ slogan, 1943.-Norway, postage stamp, portrait of King Haakon VII, who went into exile rather than collaborate with Hitler, 1945\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhoto notice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Representative stock photos may be used.

In the Gallic Wars, Celtic, Germanic, and Britonic tribes fought to defend their homelands against Roman incursion. A united front may well have defeated Rome, stopping Caesar, and changing the course of history. But the squabbling tribes could not overcome internal divisions, and Caesar played them off each other. By the time the Gallic chieftain Vercingetorix gathered the Gauls under a single banner, it was too late.

Unlike his father and grandfather, who hailed from the Electorate of Hanover, he was born and bred in Britain, and was a native speaker of English. He presided over victories in the Seven Years’ War and the Napoleonic War, which made him generally popular with his subjects. This popularity did not extend to the American colonies. The Founding Fathers viewed him as a tyrant. It was the obdurate policies of George III— as well as his reactionary Prime Minister, Lord North—that compelled the colonies to declare their independence. As Thomas Jefferson wrote on July 4, 1776, in the eponymous Declaration, George III ”has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people“ and intended to finish ”the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty \u0026amp; perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.“ After losing the colonies, George III contemplated abdication, but decided against it. He famously went mad—for a few months in 1778 and 1804, and then for the last ten years of his life. When he died in 1820, he was blind, deaf, and insane. The cause of his malady remains a mystery.–This copper half-penny, KM-662, was issued in 1806 and 1807, after George III had suffered through his first two bouts of insanity.

New Amsterdam, as their settlement was called, was administered not by the Dutch crown, but by the trading company itself. Indeed, Peter Minuit, who famously bought Manhattan Island from the Canarsie Indians for the equivalent of $24, did so in his capacity as the company’s colonial director. It was the first in a long line of New York City commercial real estate transactions. The company the Dutch called the Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, or VOC, was the first company to ever issue stock, and was arguably the most powerful company of all time. The VOC was such an economic powerhouse that it minted its own money. The most famous of this currency is the duit, a copper coin worth 1\/160th of the gulden or gilder. (Minuit paid 60 gilders for Manhattan, according to a Company memorandum, which means the island could have been had for a mere 9,600 duits).This one-duit coin was widely used in the New World, and came to be known as ”The First New York Penny.“\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhoto notice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Representative stock photos may be used.

He did not. Instead, he tried first to repudiate the debt, then to take out still more loans, and, finally, to do absolutely nothing. This led to a financial crisis in his country. While his subjects starved, the king and his wife, Marie Antoinette, enjoyed a lavish lifestyle. When told commoners could not afford to buy bread, the queen famously said, “Let them eat cake.” By 1789, the situation was untenable. The people rose up in revolt. The French Revolution was underway. The king and queen first tried to flee to her native Austria but were detained. In January of 1793, Louis was executed. In October, Marie Antoinette also went to the guillotine. The popular nursery rhyme “Jack and Jill” is about their executions some months later—after Jack euphemistically “lost his crown,” Jill came “tumbling after.” This is a French copper sol struck in the last three years of the life of Louis XVI.

An inept commander, he pursued the retreating Turkish army too far away from his base camp—a tactical blunder of historic proportions—and wound up getting routed near a provincial town called Manzikert. As a result, the Seljuks conquered much of Anatolia. They named this new territory Rûm, for Rome. Not long after, the Seljuks took Jerusalem, a conquest that inspired Pope Urban II to call for the First Crusade. The Sultanate of Rûm endured until the early 14th century.
