What is a Nibelung cycle?

Richard Wagner's four epic operas... Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried, and Götterdämmerung. My favourite is Siegfried

Hitler loved Wagner's music btw. There's also evidence to suggest Wagner read Arthur de Gobineau's work and initially bought into aryanism on top of being an antisemite.. before backsliding into vehement defenses of Christcuckery and contradicting de Gobineau completely. Like genuinely the dude did a 180 and started saying we should focus on 'human qualities' and forget about race altogether.
