The Jewish people were always ethnocentric, as evidenced by their religious texts purporting the supremacy of their ethnic collective over other nations.

However, their supremacist beliefs lacked the force of a state and an apparatus for wielding control over non-Jews until the formation of modern UsefulNotes/{{Israel}}, in which the Palestinians living under them are heavily discriminated against. Black African Jews (largely Ethiopians) have also been treated very badly, as have some Middle Eastern Jews (in spite of Jews' origins being there) and Christian converts because European Jews are the rulers overall, with many holding racist views.

* ''VideoGame/WolfensteinTheNewOrder'' is pretty much the only UsefulNotes/WorldWarII game in recent memory to pull absolutely '''no''' punches in depicting just how socially reactionary, racist, genocidal and ''[[NightmareFuel downright terrifying]]'' the Nazi ideology was, particularly this aspect of it. As it turns out, if anything, 14 years of controlling the planet after their [[spoiler:completely ill-begotten and undeserved]] victory over the Allies has given them plenty of time to buy into their Ubermensch bullshit, so they're even worse about it than they were in real life.

** The Chinese Communist Party (and the nationalist [read:Jingoist] population) believes that the Han Chinese are superior to any race, and one that is destined by an ancient decree to rule the world, with them as the highest authority. They view minorities (and those not of the Han) as inferiors treated as second class citizens and vassals at best, or as vermin that needed to be erased. They view Taiwan as a separatist and a race traitor for the gal of viewing themselves as being separate from the mainland, and has vowed to rule the island through force if necessary.

* In the first ''VideoGame/Fallout1'', the Master of the Super Mutants tries to make his creations this, he even uses the trope name in one of his speeches. Emphasis on ''tries'' because he didn't take into account two variables: the Vault Dweller putting a stop to his plan and, most importantly, the fact that the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) makes the Super Mutants infertile. If you talk to him about the latter flaw, he will realize that everything he's done was AllForNothing and is DrivenToSuicide.

** TheEmpire in ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' believes that the True Sith and humans descended from them are the master race, with [[FantasticRacism other aliens being treated as second-class citizens]]. One quest on [[FirstTown Korriban]] has a Sith Lord even send you out to measure the blood purity of his associates so he could try to convince the Dark Council to enslave those he found "lacking". However, more [[PragmaticVillainy pragmatic]] Imperials such as Darth Malgus, Darth Marr, and potentially the PlayerCharacter look down on this policy as it means ignoring potentially useful allies.

* The aliens in ''Film/TeenagersFromOuterSpace'' ([[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch save one]]) see themselves as the supreme race, and the weak are seen as a threat to the gene pool. The leader of the saucer crew in particular likes to go on about this:

* A running theme throughout ''Franchise/StarWars'':
** One of the underlying philosophies of TheEmpire in the original movies was that of human supremacy (termed "High Human Culture" in ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends''), with most non-humans relegated to menial labor, slavery, or outright extermination. It's implied Emperor Palpatine himself never personally bought into this, but encouraged it to solidify the support of his subordinates and create useful scapegoats to distract the populace with. Nonetheless, a handful of particularly capable or well-connected non-humans did manage to hold positions of real power within the Empire.
** The Yuuzhan Vong of ''Literature/NewJediOrder'' see all other species as scum to be forcibly converted to [[ReligionOfEvil the Great Doctrine]] or exterminated.
** The Rakata's Infinite Empire, first mentioned in ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'', is implied to be this, as they conquered many planets with their extensive technology and used the natives as slaves.



* ''Literature/TheElenium'': The Cyrgai in ''The Tamuli'' are a bit of a DeconstructiveParody. For a fun question, how do you ''really'', '''really''' piss off a Master Race? You seal them in an area so that anyone who tries to cross a line in the sand dies, no saves. After thousands of years of being isolated in this way, the Cyrgai suffered what would likely befall any master race given enough time: They've become so massively inbred and obsessed with their own physical perfection that they are a race of entirely beautiful, statuesque ''morons''.



* From ''Literature/JohnCarterOfMars'', the Holy Therns (white Martians) and the First Born (Black Martians) both see themselves as being the Master Race (the First Born take this to the extreme of considering it beneath them to do any kind of work but fighting- ''lesser'' beings work, and the First Born take what they need from them). Needless to say, the two races hate each other's guts, though in the third book the Thern PriestKing and a First Born nobleman pull a (very tense) VillainTeamUp against the eponymous hero.\\\
Subverted from the very first book, where Burroughs explicitly tells the reader that the Red Martians are a blend of the best of the White, Black, and Yellow Martians. (The Green Martians are different -- they're not even humanoid, can't interbreed with the other Martian races ''or'' with humans, and are subtly implied at one point to be descended from carnivorous '''plants.''' But John Carter treats them as equals too, finding his best friend in one of them.)

* Deconstructed with the Dúnedain in ''Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium'' (adapted from the Atlantis myth)-- in many ways they ''are'' superior to other races of men, which leads them to ultimately turn themselves into TheEmpire, as well as arrogant and corrupt. Then their king makes [[BigBad Sauron]] his [[EvilChancellor chief advisor]], and he plays on these factors to lead the Dúnedain to ruin. By the time of ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' there are very few pureblood Dúnedain left, and their culture exists in an AfterTheEnd of their own making.



* ''Franchise/StarTrek'':
** In the very first original novel, ''[-STAR TREK-] Mission to Horatius'' by Creator/MackReynolds, the inhabitants of the planet Bavarya (''sic!'') are divided into artificially replicated people called "doppelgangers" (again, ''sic'') and biologically engendered people called the "Herr-Elite" (''sic, sic, sic'') -- obvious stand-ins for Nazi ''Untermenschen'' and ''Herrenvolk''. The "Herr-Elite" plan to invade the planets Neolithia and [[CorruptChurch Mythra]] and enslave their inhabitants. It turns out that the dictator, "Nummer Ein," is himself a doppelganger.

** [[Recap/StarTrekS1E22SpaceSeed Khan Noonien Singh]] was considered the "ubermensch" ("superman" in German), mentally and physically superior to normal humans. Interestingly, this "ubermensch" was portrayed as an UsefulNotes/{{India}}n male rather than a white male. This might have something to do with the term "Aryan" having Indian (and UsefulNotes/{{Iran}}ian) roots, before the term was adopted by white supremacists like the Nazis. And yet, on screen, the actor portraying him is either a Mexican or a Brit. See RaceLift.

* The Race in Harry Turtledove's ''Literature/WorldWar''. While not racist (speciest?) in the typical sense, they believe that it is not just their right but their duty to take over other intelligent races and add them to their empire. [[EvenEvilHasStandards They are horrified]] by UsefulNotes/NaziGermany, however. Even so, they're arrogant enough to conclude that they are the most advanced race in the galaxy after meeting only two other races and only looking in the galactic equivalent of a neighborhood. They also naturally assume that all intelligent life forms are like them, including their fear of change and an extremely methodical approach to everything. Then they come to Earth and they ''really'' don't like how different from them we are. How ''dare'' we have radar, [[TankGoodness landcruisers]], [[OldSchoolDogfighting killercraft]], etc., when we have absolutely no business having this technology in such a short (800 years) timeframe since their probe scanned Earth. As far as the Race are concerned, HumansAreBastards for not immediately recognizing the Race's superiority and submitting to their rule.

* The Scourge on ''Series/{{Angel}}'', a small army of "pure-breed" demons bent on wiping out "half-breeds" like Doyle. The hypocrisy here is even thicker than usual, as all truly "pure" demons were colossal super-beings that were killed or banished before human civilization. Years after the show ended, the comics confirmed the Scourge were all talk when they tried to resurrect an Old One - and it wiped them all out.
* The Daleks from ''Series/DoctorWho'', who actually refer to themselves as "the master race" during the WWII-set ''Victory of the Daleks''. And the Cybermen. As well as a number of less scrupulous Time Lords.
** And the mockingly named "[[{{Pun}} Master]] [[DudeNotFunny Race]]" which came into being when TheMaster temporarily turned almost every human on Earth into a copy of himself.
* The Scarrans from ''Series/{{FarScape}}'' consider themselves the master race of the galaxy. Their hides easily shrug off small-arms fire, they posses a natural AgonyBeam and have the strongest dreadnoughts. If a species cannot provide them with either servants or breeding stock, they will be marked for extermination.

It's implied Emperor Palpatine himself never personally bought into this, but encouraged it to solidify the support of his subordinates and create useful scapegoats to distract the populace with. Nonetheless, a handful of particularly capable or well-connected non-humans did manage to hold positions of real power within the Empire.
** The Yuuzhan Vong of ''Literature/NewJediOrder'' see all other species as scum to be forcibly converted to [[ReligionOfEvil the Great Doctrine]] or exterminated.
** The Rakata's Infinite Empire, first mentioned in ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'', is implied to be this, as they conquered many planets with their extensive technology and used the natives as slaves.

* In ''TabletopGame/MageTheAwakening'', the Daksha legacy is built on a philosophical foundation that melds the viewpoint of "Mages are the MasterRace" with the viewpoint that [[TheMagocracy Mages therefor should be running the world]]. Their legacy even transforms them into {{ambiguous gender}}ed {{hermaphrodite}} {{genderbender}}s, with third eyes in the backs of their heads that can read the AkashicRecords, to further prove their "point" about being superior to ordinary humans (they built their entire Legacy around the assumptions of the "root races" right out of Theosophy, for just that extra soupcon of racism). Other Mages consider them ''very'' creepy, and would do even if they weren't working with the [[FantasticRacism Jnanamukti legacy]], who want to basically destroy all Sleeper civilization and technology in hopes of restoring Mages to their former power.

* Going hand in hand with the Paraguay entry above, Latin America struggle with downplayed examples of this tropes. While nowhere as bad as the Nazis and other modern example, the Caucasian man (especially those of origin from the Iberian peninsula) is top of the traditional hierarchy in former Hispanic and Luso colonies and people of various admixtures with white people taking up different levels of social strata based on their purity,skin color, and facial features with those mestizos closer to pure European being placed higher on the ladder. There were multiple attempts at "blanquemento" policies across the continent where government officials tried to bring in new immigrants from Europe and North America to make the already relatively caucasoid castia class even more pure and to whitify the wide mostly dark skinned and indigenous or negroid general populace by interbreeding in hopes of making nations eventually replaced by white passing mestizos.

* More recently, UsefulNotes/NorthKorea has given up on even pretending to be communist and adopted something which very much resembles race-based fascism, but with a twist. Koreans are the "cleanest race", but they're also child-like and guileless because they's so darn pure. This conveniently explains why they need a strong leader to protect them and why government censorship is necessary to preserve their innate innocence. The Americans and the Japanese are AlwaysChaoticEvil, of course. The Chinese are second best to the Koreans, but still not good enough for race-mixing. North Korean women who get pregnant from Chinese men are forced to have abortions, in order to avoid the "pure" Korean race being defiled. There are claims the government has began separating disabled people from the rest and or killing them, again to maintain "purity" for the race (which echoes Nazi policy).

* Before the 20th Century, there was The Confederate States of America, which was ''literally'' founded upon "the great truth that the Negro is not Equal to the White man; that slavery, subjugation to the superior race, is its natural and normal condition", with several seceding states declaring that their reason for seceding from the United States was to protect their "peculiar institution". That's right, they rebelled against the US government for the sake of keeping black people as slaves.
