Actually I have a theory of my own. To start, most of you people know that this is assumed to have taken place in Germany. Most of you people also know of this little village at the south, this litte society of Titan Shifters. Who have the ability to become being that don't need to eat or sleep, who only need the sun's light to funtion. If you look at the Titan Shifter who are currently know, you can see they are of German descent one way or another.

I would like to note that most of them are actually stereotyped. Reiner Braun and Annie Leonhart both have blond hair and blue eyes, also both of their names are of German origin/translation. Reiner Braun name translates to "Purely Brown" which I assume refers to his armored titan form. Annie Leonhart name roughly translates to "Flowery Lion's Heart" which I assume refers to her fate, a crystalized flower shaped heart shell.

Bertolt Hoover and Eren Jaeger are also in the same boat, with the other side of  the German stereotypes. Both of them have dark hair and blue eyes, also both of their names are of German origin/translation as well. Eren Jaeger name translates to "Saint Hunter" which definitely refers to his willingness to slay other titans. Bertolt Hoover name roughly translates to "Large Strength Leader" which I assume refers to his largely proportioned titan form.

So here's my theory, what if the Titans and the Titan Shifters are universe's version of Nazis?
