I don't know about that. Nazi Germany was facing outward pretty hard

Fascism inward. Then what followed was Imperialism. Imperialism outward.

Imperialism is the practice, theory or attitude of maintaining or extending power over foreign nations, particularly through expansionism, employing both hard power and soft power.
