well I always supposed it meant empire... but when you said it meant epoch I started doubting because it made sense (The Third Epoch)
but after looking it up in a dictionary and thinking about it
I'm pretty sure it means Empire.
The First Reich was the Holy Roman Empire ruled by Charlemagne
The Second Reich was (I believe) the Hohenzollern empire under the Kaisers (it was also called the Kaiserreich)
and The Third Reich was Nazi Germany under Hitler.
