The name Third Reich refers to the state that succeeded the Holy Roman Empire of the Middle Ages and the German Empire of 1871-1918. In German, the state was known as the Deutsches Reich(German Reich) until 1943, when its official name became Großdeutsches Reich (Greater German Reich).
Although empire is a very close translation of the word Reich, the two words are not perfect synonyms. An empire implies the existence of a monarchy, while a Reich does not have a monarchy. Since the words Reich and empire have slightly different definitions, historians decided to use the German word, rather than the imperfect English translation.

Why did Hitler call his government the 'Third Reich'?
The German word "Reich" conveys a concept that can not really be expressed in English. Empire is about the closest that English comes to it but that isn't really equivilant. The way Hitler saw it, the first German Reich had been the Holy Roman Empire which was largely German. It had been abolished by Napolean. The second Reich had been the German Empire which was established when Prussia brought all the other German principalities under her sway in the 19th century. It was abolished in favor of a republic after the First World War. When Hitler put an end to that republic, he felt he was returning Germany to the imperial position which was hers by right, hence it was the third Reich.Michael MontagneAnswer1 Holy Roman Empire 962-1806 2 German Empire 1871-19183 Third Reich( 1933.1--1945.5 )
