Subject of the state (German, Staatsangehörige) was the official term used in Nazi Germany to designate those who did not qualify for full German citizenship under the Nuremberg laws of 1935 (those who did qualify were designated Reichsburger). In Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler had laid out plans to confer full citizenship only upon males once they had completed a tour of duty in the military, and upon females once they had gotten married. However, this vision was never implemented, and virtually all of those who ended up being labelled "subjects of the state" rather than "citizens" were Jews or Mischlings.
Interestingly, the same term - Staatsangehörige - is used in Germany today to denote all German citizens.
