Introduction

In the United States, the neo-Nazis keep splitting up and forming new factions. The American National Socialist Party (ANSP) is one such splinter group. Their motto is "Raising up from the ashes, rebuilding the white race, one person at a time." They maintain several similar websites including "the one and only true Aryan Nations," and another for a youth group called "The Werewolf Youth Legion." They are headquartered in Chillicothe, Ohio.

The ANSP flag is slightly reminiscent of the flag of the short-lived West German Socialist Reich Party of Germany of the early 1950s. It has a red field with a fearsome-looking black eagle centered on it. The eagle is defaced with a crossed sword and lightning bolt providing a frame for the red letters ANSP.
