The swastika may have been a symbol found across the Indian subcontinent, but it was actually Rana-era Nepal which commandeered it as a political symbol of power, elitism and supremacism first, from whom Hitler took inspiration and whose example led Hitler to do the same (and to sponsor the 1938-1939 German Expedition to Tibet, passing through Nepal along the way, in his belief that the Nepalis represented the only pure race of "ancient white Aryans" in India). To this day, Nepali voters still mark their preferences on electoral ballot papers by stamping them with swastikas. And Adolf Hitler is reported to have said, "If I had Gurkhas, no armies in the world will defeat me." So, how much of an impact might it have had if the Kingdom of Nepal and the Gurkhas had altered their alignment during the interwar period, and sided with the Axis rather than the Allies?
