Kein schöner Land[edit]
I have a bit of a problem with what you added to the song "Kein schöner Land":
- "Land" in the original song doesn't mean any specific "state" or "country", but the region - rather generally - where it is sung, - it can be applied to whichever area, which is a strength of the song.
- In your new paragraph, it should show that the Nazis' equation of "Land" with Germany was their interpretation.
- You need to format your references without "bare urls", - the best method is to format them like others in the article. Let me know if you need help with that.
