In this presentation, I will prove that Adolf Hitler was, in terms of his geo-political ambitions, a German carbon copy of Napoleon Bonaparte in that he wanted an empire that could stand tall against the might of Britain and the USA. I will prove that this qualifies Adolf Hitler as a Eurasianist, and that his influences, maneuverings and alliances all reflect this inescapable reality. Geopolitically speaking, the only difference between Bonaparte, Hitler, and Stalin was in terms of which city should govern this great and vast land power called “Eurasia”. For Napoleon it was Paris, for Hitler it was Berlin and for Stalin it was Moscow. Nevertheless, the final geo-political aim was all the same: The existence of a mighty world power to stand against London and Washington DC. I will present Karl Haushofer and analyze his influence on Hitler. I will show how Haushofer was the German counterview to Halford Mackinder's Heartland Theory with the only difference being that Mackinder's Geopolitics was from a pro-western perspective while Haushofer's was from an anti-western perspective. Finally I present the influence that Haushofer's theory of Geopolitics has had on the Russian philosopher and thinker Aleksandr Dugin.
