Season overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Produce a JSON object for "History of the World" Season 5.
Constraints:
Use ONLY provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, counts, awards, ratings, etc.
If detail is missing, omit it.
Style: Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Output: Valid JSON only.
JSON Keys:
overview: 160-220 word factual summary.
primer: Array of exactly 4 concise bullet points (though the instruction says "no bullet points" in the prose style, it asks for an array of 4 bullet points in the JSON structure. I will interpret "no bullet points" as applying to the prose within the JSON values, but the array itself is the structure. Wait, the prompt says "no bullet points" in the "Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text — no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points" section. However, the primer key requires an "array of exactly 4 concise bullet points". In JSON, an array is a list. I will provide the array of strings).
TMDB Season Synopsis: Hitler is at the peak of his fanatical career, he has conquered France, and the German people are on his side. But now he's making the biggest mistake of his life. Hitler decides to turn his gaze east and challenge the Soviet Union.
