Webb, the great error of your examples are that none of the countries are in Europe. Only Russia was a part of Europe, yet the vast majority of that country's land bulk lies in Asia.
Besides, landmass is a poor judge. Were landmass an accurate way to gauge country's power, Canada would have a far different image, no? Wonderful country, an economic powerhouse, but certainly no industrial giant.
Germany was.
Anyway, it is *almost*, but not quite, surprising that you are unable to realize why your glorification of Nazi symbolism is grating, to say the least.
