In the middle ages, what's now known as Germany was called the "Holy Roman Empire".
In 1871, these states united to create the "German Reich", also called the "German Empire". After the German Empire's defeat in WW1, the newly democratic Germany was often called "Weimar Germany" or the "Weimar Republic.
In the 1930s, they changed the name to the "Greater German Reich", but many people simply called it "Nazi Germany".
After WWII, Germany was split into the "Federal Republic of Germany" (also called "West Germany") and the "German Democratic Republic (also called "East Germany). After West Germany and East Germany unified in 1990, they kept the "Federal Republic of Germany" title, which is the official name of Germany today.
