History
Nation Europa was founded by former SA member and SS commander Arthur Ehrhardt and Herbert Boehme. Helmut Sündermann, a high-ranking National-Socialist propagandist, writing under the pen name “Heinrich Sanden” also helped found the magazine. The publication took its title from a phrase sometimes used by Oswald Mosley to describe his Europe a Nation vision. Adopting a European-wide vision, writers such as Gaston-Armand Amaudruz and Maurice Bardèche were closely associated with the publication. Initially its largest single shareholder was Swedish neo-Nazi and former Olympic athlete Carl-Ehrenfried Carlberg. It was edited by Ehrhardt in association with a board of five made up of Per Engdahl, Hans Oehler, Paul van Tienen, Erik Lærum and Erich Kern.
