This Bundestag election will be the first, since the end of Nazi era in 1945, in which a far-right party enters the German parliament (AfD) - a trend we are seeing in many places in Europe.
Wrong: far-right parties won seats in the first three Bundestag elections.
I just checked the 1949, 1953 and 1957 German election results and was unable to discern same. Care to name 'em?
The DP (German Party) was a right-wing nationalist party, the Bloc of Expellees was as well, and in 1949 the two other very right wing parties (the German Right Party and the Economic Reconstruction Union) also won seats. There were also right-wing elements in the early FDP.
The DP and GB/BHE even participated in governing coalitions...with the CDU!
