There are several groups of people who think that the German state is not legitimate. These movements are generally known as Reichsbürgerbewegung (Reichsbürger movement in English). A single person with such views is called Reichsbürger. Since the German state is not legitimate, its laws do not apply to them, they think. Very often, these groups are very small. Often they have several of the properties of a religious cuilt or sect.The ideas these groups propagate are often against democracy, and instead want a monarchy or other state with a strong leader. Very often, they also think that the history they were taught in school did not happen that way. From their ideas, these groups are usually far-right in the political spectrum. Some are holocaust deniers. Their views are often anti-semitic.
