What would have happened if Hitler won WWII?

It would be horrible. Horrid. Horrendous. How can one look at that time and say, I wish life was like that? I have family members who died in the holocaust. The shoah was a time just like avdut. It was just like slavery in egypt. One nation was reduced to nothing, and that’s how they felt themselves–not worthy.

well first of all, it wouldn’t have been all three of those countries to have won. you have to think about who their respective leaders were and how each of them had acted prior towards other countries. especially hitler, who betrayed all of his alliances with countries and broke treaties. its more realistic to think germany would’ve been the top dog out of those three.

assuming germany was able to successfully win in the Soviet Union in 1941 and bombing Britain in 1940, it wouldn’t be hard to imagine a complete turn of events. if germany didn’t declare war against the U.S. when japan carried on its attacks on Pearl Harbor there wouldn’t be any hostilities between germany and america, possibly leading to japan declaring war on germany for betraying the alliance. keeping in mind that germany WON its invasion of the Soviet Union, germany would have plenty of oil overwhelming japan with two armies. with america on the attack towards japan, victory would favor the america simply because of lack supplies and raw oil for japan. however, that victory wouldn’t be from a nuclear bomb since the scientists who came up with the technology were germans arrested after the fall of the 3rd reich. so the war itself wouldn’t have ended in 1945, but many years later.

this would leave germany to actually have nuclear capabilities first as well as many other things like jet planes and medium/long ranged missiles. a fairly dark future might have ensued.

there’s a long list of great books out their that specialize in alternative history. a good one for world war II is Robert Harris’s ‘Fatherland’ .

Depends on what you mean by “won the war”. Hitler himself believed the Third Reich would eventually dominate the world, but he also believed that would take a very long time, likely not happening in his life time. He predicted that the final conflict for such domination would happen around 1980.

What he wanted to accomplish for the “Thousand Year Reich” was increased “living space” and resources for a united Aryan nation that included Britain. He also wanted to remove people he considered inferior from this new society (Jews, Slavs, communists, homosexuals, etc.).

So, Hitler’s best chance for achieving European victory came in 1940 when British and French forces were retreating from Dunkerque. A combined paratroop invasion of southern Britain and aerial bombardment at that time might have realistically forced a British surrender. Keep in mind that there were Nazi collaborates and sympathizers in the UK, just as there were in many other nations. A German invasion in 1940 could have brought about power struggle in parliament between Churchill and his opponents.

This would have allowed Hitler to focus his energy on invading the Soviet Union, and on expanding his holdings in North Africa and the Middle East, a less difficult task if not fighting the British. In this situation, I would say victory for Hitler would come by negotiating a “Brest-Litovsk” type treaty with the USSR, stripping it of huge amounts of territory and resources, since I still doubt he could totally defeat the Soviets, who might still have been supported by US materiel.

But even this is pure speculation. What if the Soviet Union was still able to rally and hold back the Nazi invasion, a strong possibility? And, with all of the resistance movements happening in countries under his control, how long could Hitler have possibly expected to hold Europe? And, would Japan have still forced the Axis Powers into a war against the US by attacking the American fleet, when Germany was clearly not ready for such a war? This is assuming that the US would not have entered the war with Britain being defeated. All in all, I see little chance of Hitler salvaging total victory.

At the Munich Conference, a meeting between the prime ministers of Britain and France with Hitler, Hitler signed the Munich Agreement, where he declared that he was satisfied with taking Austria and Czechoslovakia, the two German speaking countries in Europe, and he would back down and not invade other countries. This meeting was a response to the German army invading the Sudetland, an area that was taken from Germany, as a punishment for starting and losing World War 1, to create Czechoslovakia. If British and French prime ministers had told Hitler that he needed to back off and leave the Sudetland or else the British and French armies would attack full force on the Germany army, which was quite small at the time, the whole war would have never happened. This is because the Germany army would have either been crushed then and there, or Hitler would have been forced to back down and retreated back into Germany. Basically, if Britain and France had stood up for themselves and the rest of Europe then Hitler’s plan to expand Germany would have been depressed and German expansion would have been limited to its control of Austria. If Hitler had been stopped by Britain and France then Germany and Italy would not have allied to conquer Poland, and exterminating Jews. Also, the Japanese would not have followed the example of Germans, claiming that they needed to gain more “Lebensraum”, or “living space”, and natural resources. If none of this had happened, then Germany would not have, with their eventually gigantic German army, taken control of many crucial countries including Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Holland, and most importantly France. That’s how World War 2 could have been prevented.

We’d probably still be in nuclear winter…

if fascism woud have persisted in germany… well… im moving to jamaica..

wimp? your tlaking about a guy who took on france…great britain…russia…united states all top powers in that time and spoke out his beleifs in face of the world? i wouldnt call him wimp more like a strong misguided leader. very intellligent mind you i think smartest of his time? and with russia at your backdoor if your were german you would much rather commit suicide.

My father used to say, “if - if, ands and buts were candy and nuts, everyday would be Christmas.” Achtung!

Emilio, are you kidding me? Hitler had no intention of stopping there and the world’s nations should have intervened a lot earlier.

If Hitler hadn’t betrayed Soviet-Russia and had tried to negotiate energy and oil deals with them instead of trying to grab it all through brute force, Hitler would have had a far greater chance at winning World War II. Thankfully, he didn’t think it through properly.

Dictatorship doesn’t work and though the world we live in now isn’t completely free and definitely not as free as most people think, it’s safe to say we’re better off as we are.

He just want Poland,and he should it Keep it. Big mistake Eangland declares war on Germany on day 2.

i’m guessing we would all be speaking german.haha

ummm he would have probably been killed sooner or later…if the wimp hadent of killed himself first…cousin lovin pansey -_-

No because if they don’t then I will get very abstraperus
