The AfD is on the right, but by far no Nazi party. It is doing well because all the other parties are completely nuts, lackin any competence.
There is one very totalitarian party though: The green party. Absurd, but this might shed a light on the success of the AfD.
(btw. Germany did not manage the integration of the former eastern germany very well. This is another reason why a lot of people are dissatisfied with the ruling parties)

Seems almost identic to the Netherlands.
...and most of the western countries...
Come to think of it, I watched the German movie "Er ist wieder da" (Look Who's Back) on DVD a couple of years ago and was shocked to see Hitler in the movie, back in time to the present day, praising the Green Party. Now the Greens are in power, and Timur Vermes' prediction came true.
I am sympathetic to the people of the former East German region. They were supposed to be free, but after German reunification they experienced unemployment for the first time in their lives. It was not supposed to be like this, they must have thought.
