I was gonna ask about that, i always wondered whether someone could pull it off, it's pretty awesome you did.

The dominant line of economic thought in Germany at the time (at least among the officials of the Nazi party, who were in a position to act on it) centered on "lebensraum", that is, living space.

It was an ideology that was centrally pessimistic about the idea of economic growth from a fixed pool of resources. Basically the thinking was that in order to maintain and expand the economic well being of the state, expansion for new agricultural land and natural resources was an imperative.

In fact Germany's import policies in the leadup to the war would have likely been unsustainable. It would be a mistake to say that (at least from the point of view of German decision makers) the economic problem had been solved simply because the worst impacts of the depression had finally been overcome.

I get a hunch it won't be affected at all, no new science has managed to do so in quite some time.
