My German might not always be spot on, but I can see "Fascist" in the title for the page. According to the Google language tool, it means something like "vehicles OF combined fascist states new of the realm". I would translate it as "Vehicles of the United Fascist States of the New Reich". Fascism was a right-wing authoritarian political movement originating in Italy and similar in many ways to the Nazi movement in Germany. For many people "Fascism" and "Nazism" are almost interchangeable as terms, and if someone makes a reference to "Fascism" and "Reich" in the same sentence, this implies reference to the "Third Reich" (1933-1955) rather than the "Second Reich" or Kaiserreich (1871-1918).
