Aren't SS stud-farms a confirmed myth?
[edit] Neuordnung, not neue Ordnung!
German here. Just thought I'd let you know the original German phrase is a compound noun (Kompositum) in one word (Neuordnung), not neue Ordnung (which would be adjective + noun instead, just as the English grammar form of the phrase at hand).
Also, even though its literal translation "New Order" has become popular in English, what the original Nazi Neuordnung stood for was no political system (such as dictatorship, "people's rule", nazism, etc...), a more precise translation would actually be Re-structurizing or Re-structurization as the term in its original Nazi-era usage mostly referred to drawing new borders on the European map under post-war hegemony of Greater Germany. Hence, the term mostly appeared in full as Neuordnung Europas, for which die Neuordnung was merely a short-hand.
Of course, drawing new borders in Asia were part of Hitler's plans, however these Asian plans were hardly ever referred to as Neuordnung, probably because Nazi racism regarded Russia as a country as of yet lacking any recognizable civilization (in spite of the distantly Germanic-related ruling class that had formed aristocracy under the Czars and that Hitler had alluded to a few times in Mein Kampf) so there were no "structures" to "re-structurize". --Tlatosmd 10:01, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
