Slight historical hyperbole there...the extreme weather killed more men than actual fighting did.

The Weather didn't kill more men

The Germans were already close to the capital already

Yes Americans changed the war drastically they were manufacturing a lot of weaponry, and also Germans soldier had setback as they were advancing towards Moscow, due to the severity of the winter, many died of cold.

Hitler had a fascination for Britain, so he decided not to occupy Britain or defeat Britain, but to play a phycological one on them, although he might have thought to defeat Russia his former ally, first, so Britain will have no option, but accept Germany as their master.


Ur second paragraph is a bit incorrect in my opinion..

Hitler actually didn't want to conquer Britain because he believed that Britain would surrender on seeing its allies and the rest of Europe conquered by Germany...

His major aim was Russia Tho...

Britain was just lucky not to have been on the same land mass as the rest of Europe

when i say fascination, i mean the Aryan race or super race, this ideology was borrowed from Britain too.

This is the fascination i am talking about or the Aryan race , which is also related to Darwin's evolution or survival of the fittest

Funnily enough, both nations are from the Germanic tribes

But I still maintain the fact that Hitler wanted to conquer all of Europe living nothing to spare

The first picture is his 30years self,

Story has it that at some point, in the early part of the war he was captured as a POW by the Germans for nearly 2 years!

I'm African but lived abroad for more than two decades. I'm not maligning anybody but I prefer the truth and unfortunately truth is bitter.Hiding the truth in this case is wrong because the African Will not be ashamed enough to pursue excellence and do the right thing if you keep lying to him.I know of a few people abroad who would like to invest in Nigeria but they were scared off by the Yahoo Yahoo atmosphere, insecurity and the general perfidious nature of the Nigerian.People need to confront the truth so good changes can occur.

What we lack are strong institutions, there is no nation without scammers and low life criminals. Only few weeks ago, a bunch of ill informed Americans invaded their seat of power. Only recently also, someone stole public money in Sydney....

Do you know what fighting for the soviet union against the germans was?
It's better to commit suicide than to experience such a thing.
The battle was the most bloody part in world war 2.

Wrong sir. At the beginning Russia had a pact with Germany that it will not be attacked if it did not interfere in Europe. Russia did, Germany did not.

With the loss of Africa and rhe potential oil from the planned mid east incursion gone, Hitler tore up the pact with Russia and massed troops qith the aim of capturing the oil fields of the Caucasus.

Russia in its naivety never secretly developed its military so it had to turn to America and Britain for help to kickstart its defence and its was given massive inventories of planes, tanks and artillery pieces.

That is why the Germans initially had the upperhand and siezed almost a fifth of the country in just a few weeks. Russia was not up to speed.

But Hitler's obsession for grandeur made him split his own army in two and diverting vital resources to capture Stalingrad which neither had administrative nor economic importance. By pursuing a city just for its name he lost the entire war.
