The policy that identified the need for greater living space for Germans and Europe as a goal of Aryan superiority was the concept of "lebensraum" or living space, which was central to Nazi ideology and expansionist policies. Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party believed that the German people, as a supposedly superior race, needed more land and resources to grow and prosper, and that this entitlement justified their conquest and colonization of other territories in Europe. This belief in lebensraum was a key factor in shaping Nazi foreign policy and ultimately led to the outbreak of World War II.
