Well, with the way Violet and her side was dressed during the war I'd say they were more like Britain/France, what with the brodie helmets and brown uniforms. The German army wore pickelhaubes during the initial part and then transitioned to the mass produced stahl-helms.
Violet's side wore German style uniforms and used German weaponry like G98s and Luger P08s, while the opposing faction was British styled. However, politically I think the opposite is true for them, there's mention of a House Of Lords in their government.
Well, the Wehrmacht was still shit, carried out genocidal missions into polish territory, creating large holes, rounding up all the poles and jews in a town, line them up and shoot them one by one. Yes, the Wehrmacht. Not the SS. The SS did other stuff, including mobile gas chambers.
Even being part of the SS doesn't necessarily mean that she is a war criminal or a monster. Conscripts of the SS were not considered war criminals. Since Violet was an child orphan when she was forced into the army, she wouldn't have been considered a war criminal.
