• The Nazis Kicking Out Freemasons and the Occult from Germany

  This theory focuses on the Nazi regime’s campaign to purge Germany of independent esoteric, occult, and fraternal networks—especially Freemasons, astrologers, occultists, spiritualists, and related secretive circles. In conspiratorial interpretations, the purge was not simply ideological housekeeping, but a struggle for control over hidden knowledge, symbolic power, and underground influence. Some versions argue the Nazis wanted to destroy rival secret societies and occult authorities so that only state-controlled mysticism, racial mythology, and regime-approved esotericism would remain.

• The Vril Society

  The Vril Society is a conspiracy-lore secret society said to have emerged in Germany around the early 20th century and to have pursued esoteric knowledge, psychic communication, hidden energy, and contact with higher or nonhuman intelligences. In most versions of the theory, the society drew on the concept of “Vril,” a mysterious force originating in Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s 1871 novel The Coming Race, then evolved into an occult order tied to Aryan mysticism, subterranean beings, Nazi occultism, and advanced antigravity technology. Later legends added claims that the society worked with female mediums, received transmissions from Aldebaran, and contributed to secret German flying disc programs.

• Strawman Theory

  The “Strawman Theory” claims that every person has a separate legal-commercial identity created by the state at birth, often represented through capitalization, birth registration, Social Security records, and government documentation. In this theory, the state does not interact directly with the living man or woman, but with an artificial “strawman” entity used as collateral, debtor, or legal vessel inside a commercial system. The idea is central to sovereign-citizen ideology and is often linked to claims about secret Treasury accounts, bond relationships, UCC filings, admiralty law, and the belief that a person can reclaim sovereignty by separating from the artificial legal persona.

• Admiralty Law Governs America

  The “Admiralty Law governs America” theory claims that the United States is not truly governed by constitutional common law, but by maritime or admiralty law disguised as ordinary civil government. In conspiracy and sovereign-citizen circles, this idea is used to argue that courts, contracts, taxation, policing, and even personal identity are administered under a hidden commercial regime tied to shipping law, international commerce, and emergency powers. Supporters often point to courtroom symbols, legal terminology, capitalization conventions, and the growth of federal administrative systems as signs that Americans are being governed under a maritime-commercial code rather than the original constitutional order.

• United States Became a Corporation in 1871

  The “United States became a corporation in 1871” theory claims that the original constitutional republic was covertly replaced when Congress passed the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871. In conspiracy interpretations, this act allegedly transformed the United States from a sovereign nation into a corporate entity controlled by financial interests, foreign creditors, or hidden elites operating under commercial law. Variations of the theory connect the act to claims about the loss of constitutional rights, the rise of federal control, secret debt arrangements, maritime or admiralty law, and the existence of a second, illegitimate government centered in Washington, D.C.
