Heinrich Himmler

Heinrich Himmler (born 7th October 1900) is the Reichsführer of the Schutzstaffel and the leader of the SS State of Burgundy.

In-game

The goal of Himmler and Burgundy as a whole is to initiate nuclear armageddon between the United States of America, the Greater Germanic Reich, and the Empire of Japan so that the Earth can be cleansed of non-Aryans. This goal is rather difficult and can only happen under specific circumstances.

During the German Civil War, he will indirectly support Reinhard Heydrich and in the likely event that Heydrich is defeated (reflected by the name of said focus that the player will unlock, "A Predictable Failure," upon Heydrich's defeat), he will shift to supporting Hermann Göring instead. He will not attempt to support either Albert Speer or Martin Bormann if Göring is defeated. Heydrich will turn on Himmler when he learns of Himmler's true plans, which causes a civil war to break out amongst the SS. If Speer or Bormann win, they can only invade Burgundy if the French State is a member of the Einheitspakt during the collapse of Burgundy (if the French State becomes a member of the Organization of Free Nations, the United States will instead lead an invasion of Burgundy).

While Himmler is shown to be dismissive of the United States as a whole, if Margaret Chase Smith is elected, he is shown to actually respect the United States somewhat because of it, believing that they have made a "sensible" decision for once, largely due to her belligerence towards Japan, believing she has risen above her "cowardly" English and French ancestry.
