NSDAP stands for the German Workers' Party founded in 1919 and which in 1920 became the National Socialist Workers' Party, or more colloquially, the Nazi Party. In German it was called NazionalSocialistiche Deutsche Arbeiter Partei, i.e. National Socialist German Workers' Party. It was founded by Anton Drexler, leader of the German workers' party, whose aim was to end the draconian sanctions of Versailles and ST. Germain and reconquer territories for the German people.
