German resistance to Nazism

The German resistance to Nazism (German: Widerstand gegen den Nationalsozialismus) included both unarmed and armed opposition and disobedience to the Nazi regime by various movements, groups and individuals by various means, from attempts to assassinate Adolf Hitler or attempts to overthrow his regime, defections to the Allies and acts of sabotage against the German Army and the apparatus of repression and attempts to organize an armed struggle or open protests, the rescue of persecuted persons, the harboring of dissidence and acts of "everyday resistance". It was not a united resistance movement, unlike the more organised efforts in other countries, such as Italy, Denmark, the Soviet Union, Poland, Greece, Yugoslavia, France, the Netherlands, Czechoslovakia, and Norway.
