The forests were crippled, the wheat fields vanished; in place of the grass there reappeared stone and drifting sand. Men perished and moved on, the cities sank back into the sand, the dust settled over them. Thousands of years later Nordic dreamers dug up the petrified culture from the rubble and ashes. Today, the entire picture of the former paradise stands before our eyes as a spent dream which had once produced life, beauty and strength as long as a superior race ruled. It will live again and it will dream again. But as soon as races of a dreamless kind took over and attempted to realize the dream, reality vanished with the dream.

Rosenberg built on the works of Arthur de Gobineau Houston Stewart Chamberlain and Madison Grant as well as the beliefs of Hitler. The organization of these administrative territories led to conflict between Rosenberg and the SS over the treatment of Slavs under German occupation. At the Nuremberg Trials he claimed to be ignorant of the Holocaust despite the fact that Leibbrandt and Meyer were present at the Wannsee conference.

He is also known for his rejection of Christianity having played an important role in the development of Positive Christianity which he intended to be transitional to a new Nazi faith. Rosenberg was first introduced to Adolf Hitler by Dietrich Eckart; he later held several important posts in the Nazi government. At Nuremberg he was tried sentenced to death and executed by hanging as a war criminal.
