Things that are overpriced

Either way, you're not making friends.

I'd say Germany under Hitler was doing expansionism at first. Perhaps later, if enough Germans move into the occupied areas, I'd consider that colonization. Though I think it depends how "German-like" in customs and people the occupied territory already is. That's how I'd differentiate the two.

Nazi Germany can be considered a mix. In the west the plan was never to move Germans in for the most part. France would have been a puppet and Great Britain was to be a junior partner of sorts. Keeping her colonies but running most of overseas for Germany.

The east was to be outright expansionism. Locals not outright exterminated were to be rounded up on reservations in a sort of return of serfdom until they died out. I would call neither a "colony."
