Citizens of the Reich: Raids and suspicion as German group grows

The "Kingdom of Germany," led by Peter Fitzek, a self-declared king, challenges the legitimacy of modern Germany, forming the Reichsbuerger movement. With over 5,000 adherents, this group establishes its own laws, currency, and health system, advocating non-smoking, non-drinking, and anti-vaccination beliefs.

While mostly originating from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, concerns arise about their potential ties to right-wing elements.
