long they lasted, most countryes these days don't last 1 month in a
war against 1 country, Germany lasted 6 years against almost the
entire planet with minimum allies.LiannaSilverwind: Let's compare situation of Germany in, let's say, spring 1942.
Germany, Austria (part of Germany), conquered Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway, France (+ Vichy), Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Greece, great part of European Soviet Union
Allies: Italy, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Finland
Count population, amount of resources needed for fueling the war machine
Now compare to:
Great Britain (isolated on British Isles, fighting in Pacific, South-East Asia, North Africa)
USA (awaking and fighting in Pacific, no real danger to Germany for now)
Soviet Union (reeling after horrible losses of population, soldiers, tanks, aircraft, lost great amount of resources needed for fueling the war machine)
Count population and amount of resources.
Now let's ask the question: how is it possible that Allies had won?
German tanks were superior, amount of working population was strongly in favour of the Axis, most resources - in favour of the Axis. What has happened?
