Etymology
Nazism comes from the German word Nationalsozialismus, made from national ('nation') and socialism ('ideas about sharing and running a society'); the party name was shortened to Nazi and the ending -ism shows a system of ideas. So, Nazism means the political system and beliefs of the Nazi Party, including its racist ideas and total control by the state.
