* AllohistoricalAllusion: The NSAAP is just the NSDAP[[note]]''National Socialist German Worker's Party''[[/note]] though without a unified German State, this version of the Nazis lean more heavily on Pan-Germanism than they already did.
* ANaziByAnyOtherName: Downplayed. The "National Socialist" part of their name is the same, but the party's full name mentions Austria instead of Germany as a whole.
* NoSwastikas: Despite being led by Hitler and the Nazis, Austria's flag doesn't contain the Swastika, instead opting for a Roman Cross. Averted by Austria's unique icon for fascism
* ThoseWackyNazis: Austria fulfils the role as the home of Nazism due to the lack of a unified Germany.

The Fuhrer of Austria. A war hero and artist, Hitler has vowed to unite all the German states into a Greater German Reich under his brand own of fascism: "National Socialism".

* HistoricalVillainDowngrade: Not in his motives or his actions, but his scope due to being confined to the smaller country Austria has limited his ability to persecute Jews to the same extent as in OTL. Even if he does unite Germany, his actions are considerably more sanitised, [[UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust and for good reason]].
