Heinrich Himmler, the infamous head of the Schutzstaffel (SS), was a central figure in the Nazi regime. A fanatic believer in Nazi ideology, Himmler sought to establish a master race through brutal policies of racial extermination. As Reichsführer-SS, he oversaw the expansion and radicalization of the SS into an elite force responsible for the Holocaust and other atrocities. Himmler played a pivotal role in the establishment of concentration and extermination camps, and his fanatical dedication to Hitler and his vision made him one of the most feared and reviled figures in human history.
