I'm gonna go with the most "realistic" Nazi-victory scenario - they beat the USSR on the ostfront, Stalin gets fragged and Soviets sue for peace, the Western Allies never invade, eventually a separate peace with the West. The Nazi frontlines go up to Astrakhan-Arkhangelsk but not much further; the remaining USSR still exists behind that line. America and UK are untouched by the war.

(I know that any kind of Nazi victory is a huge stretch, but this "limited" Nazi empire in Europe is the most plausible-looking, rather than the United Nazi States we see in Dick's book.)

It's an interesting question, though. Would they have gone with "KILL EM ALL", or decide to take a more gradual colonization approach?

There's many real-life cases of the latter, like the Anglo planters in Ireland or the Israeli settlers in Palestine. And it's definitely possible that Hitler's successors would've been less hardcore than him in this matter.

Anyways, speculate about scenarios.

Half of Eastern Europe was Axis.You dont need need alt-history to imagine what life would be like in Romania, Hungary, Croatia, Bulgaria, they'd keep their ways most likely.
And if you want to advance it in time, just imagine Eastern Europe without communism. A paradise.

>>51394249
This. Reich probably wins the space race (assuming there is one; they get to keep all their scientists). The more plausible "weird war" weapons probably get developed too.

>>51394142
Well the Nazi's were Nationalists at heart and besides putting German on side posts and installing puppet Governments not alot changed.

We'd see more conservative, tradtional European countries. Really with the Euro and centralised power in Brussels most of the sort of negatives that might have been perceived at the time actually came about anyway with the EU.

I think the more telling sources are Eastern Euro's and Poles quotes on why they started fighting WITH the Germans agaisnt the Russians at the end of the war.

The Germans were Guards on the hill sort of occupiers that didn't really bother the public day to day. Whereas the Russians billeted 50 soldiers in your house.

>>51394302
Irrelevant, Poles would fight with Satan himself if it was against the Russians.

>>51394338
On the contrary that's irrelevant. It was just context for the description of a hands off occupier.

>>51394267

Romania/Hungary/Bulgaria were indeed Axis countries. I should've mentioned that.

What I'm really interested in is the fate of the "lebensraum" countries, like Poland and Russia. They would've hardly been a paradise.

>>51394272

A space race, with Von Braun working on Germany's rockets, sounds very likely.

Nazi Germany winning the space race is probable, since they had both genius scientists and a Soviet-like attitude to human life (no problem using human guinea-pigs in those capsules until they get it right.)

>>51394302

Poles were actually the only population that never collaborate with Nazis - they fought both the Nazis and Bolsheviks, and were crushed really badly. Poland was probably the main tragedy in WW2.

(The Nazis didn't install a puppet government in Poland either, IIRC. They renamed it "Government-General" and put it under German rule, banning the name "Poland".)

>>51394265
Nationalists and dissidents are disposed of.
The rest becomes second rate citizens. They can hold menial jobs, they have access to education up to high school / trade school, but no college. They can't own property beyond personal necessity (say one room per person, children count as half, plus a limited form of savings). They can't participate in cultural events and general high-society stuff (or only on a special permit as a retinue of a proper citizen), they can't travel abroad.

However, they are offered a way to gain full citizenship - exemplar service at assigned job, no criminal activity, fluent in German language, knowledgeable about German history, public subscription to the ideology, etc. And obviously in good physical shape. Because after all Aryan bloodline goes all over the Europe historically and can be present in some diluted form in anyone. All they need is to foster it to strength it is worthy of.

And people will want to take this path, partially out of pride indoctrinated into them, partially because it secures them (and their children) better standing in life.

Mixed couples are discouraged and child born form such union becomes automatically second class, plus the offending first class parent might become disowned by their own family. Loss of citizenship might also become form of criminal punishment.

The best option for Germany is NOT to break the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. The idea of an invasion of the Soviet Union was the most stupid idea of Hitler together with the Holocaust.
Germany annexes Austria and Czechoslovakia becomes protectorate. Germany and SU invade Poland. Britain and France declare war on Germany. Germany roflstomps France. From now you have several alternative options.

War with the SU? Okay, stupid but historical accurate. Necessary option here for German victory is a truce/stalemate on the eastern front. Basically ending in a demilitarized zone after end of the war similar to how North and South Korea's borders looks today. Better option: No war, the entire eastern front debacle is never a thing, German resources can be used entirely on the western front. Germany and SU stay grudging "friends" after the war.

War with the UK? Two options: Either once again truce as the UK realizes that with the entire focus of the German war machine on the west and France's fall the outlook ain't so peachy anymore. Meanwhile Italy would be gnawing at British colonies in Africa. Alternative: Operation Sealion/Reverse D-Day. Germany pulls of the invasion of UK, City of London becomes German territory, Wales and Scotland become protectorates, N.Ireland is retaken by Ireland.

>On March 21st, 1943, Ribbentrop sent a memorandum to Hitler in which he stated the need for a "European Confederation." The composition of this new political entity was supposed to include Germany, Italy, France, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia, Greece and Spain. A memorandum of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany from September 9th, 1943 reveals the structure of the future European Confederation. This proposed structure does not differ significantly at all from the current structure of the EU. Economic issues were to be governed by the European Economic Council, and it was suggested that a European Monetary Union and European Central Bank be created.

Interesting ideas, all of them sound realistic.

German cultural imperialism would've been a thing, akin to the Brits banning the Irish language. I can definitely see Hitler banning the Russian language, but since the German settlers would be hugely outnumbered by the natives (even after WW2 mega-deaths), such a ban wouldn't work that well. A black-market business of Germanic settlers learning Russian would probably be a thing.

There was a Swedish alt-history book set in Nazi Europe a while ago. It takes place in the 60s, with Speer as the Fuhrer. I remember that the protagonist ends up in "Ostland" and notices that old Hitlerian apartheid-laws on Slavs are being a bit relaxed - they're allowed to get an education, participate in sports events, etc etc.

(If I remember right, Hitler didn't want Eastern Europeans to be allowed literacy at all. No idea where this was from, though. "Hitler's Table Talk"?)

Stupid idea, but pic still thematically appropriate.

OP read "Fatherland". It is basically this exact scenario.

In it, Germany defeats Russia but can't obliterate it. Russian remnants continue an insurgency and the Urals / most of Asian Russia is a hellish no man's land.

Eastern Europe, or at least Poland, seem to be ruthlessly exploited. By the 60s Pole's are emigrating to Germany as menial, second class workers.

Been a long time since I read the book though. Check it out

>>51394676

The 60s.

It's a good decade to set it in - space race, "counterculture" kids, first post-Nazi generation, oldies like Speer and Heydrich are still around, etc etc.

(I imagine the 60s culture in Nazi Germany would be treated much the same way Franco's Spain did in real life - hippies getting hanged up by their hair, etc etc.)

>>51394603
That would be a terrible idea, actually. The USSR was going through a massive military expansion that would see it as being the world most well equipped army by 1944 or so. Attacking them by that point would be suicidal.

>>51394142
Check out "In the Presence of Mine Enemies" by Harry Turtledove. Alt history from the viewpoint of a hidden Jewish family about half a century after the Nazis won.

My biggest question in this scenario is always: How does Germany hold on to the territories? The german and austrian heartlands had it decent, but nearly every single other territory had not discountable resistance movements. Even regions that were sympathtic to them got alienated by how dickish many germans were to them. Germany simply never had the manpower to hold on to most territories.

Genocide.

Apparently a quote from Speer:

> Along with the new towns, gigantic SS cemeteries were to be established, looking like the tumuli of the ancient world, but rising to heights of a hundred meters and more. . . .in addition to Himmler’s fortress villages, many new towns were to spring up in the vicinity of the existing Russian towns. As models, Hitler would mention Regensburg, Augsburg, Weimar, or Heidelberg. These towns were to be as different as possible from each other. It was perfectly all right for us to copy familiar buildings, so that even in Russia a feeling for the fatherland could develop. In antiquity, Hitler would often say, no attempt was
made to develop new forms of villas or temples for, say, the Greco-Roman colonial cities in Sicily. He also wanted to use a great deal of color. He recalled the ‘Theresian yellow’ to be found in any territory where the influence of the Habsburg monarchy extended, even deep into the wilds of Montenegro. Our future buildings in the Ukraine, in White Russia, and as far as the Urals must always be identifiable as products of German culture.

>old Hitlerian apartheid-laws on Slavs are being a bit relaxed - they're allowed to get an education, participate in sports events, etc etc.
Well, I would say get a bit old school on this - there's is low culture and high culture. Some sports (soccer and most other team sports, cinema, circus, street performance) are low culture - permitted to both perform and attend by anyone (though monitored if they're not secretly agitating against the state). High culture (fencing, classic Greek athletics, theater, opera) are high culture.
Low culture is for masses and by masses - bread and games. High culture is more about the prowess of the individual.

>(If I remember right, Hitler didn't want Eastern Europeans to be allowed literacy at all. No idea where this was from, though. "Hitler's Table Talk"?)
I fail to see how this would be a good idea - restricting them from higher education makes sense but the absence of basic literacy seriously limits the use of a workfoce. You'd still want those people as assembly line workers and farmers for the new Reich, I imagine. They can do that without knowing how to read but they would be quite inflexible in adopting any new technology or methodology when everything needs to be shown by example as in ye olde days of craft apprenticeship.
I don't think the threat of samizdat anti-state literature is that serious to justify this. You can easily overwhelm it by your own propaganda if you control the main media.

>>51394142
slavs make up the working class, while germans are their overseers. the law is very strict and it's easy to end up in a death camp, but generally only if you break it.
there is probably forced castration / sterilization for people with defects as part of a mandatory eugenics program
there are definitely a lot of resistance movements and the whole thing would collapse pretty soon honestly, hard to manage a state in which 90% of people absolutely fucking hate the ruling 10% with good reason

>>51394563
>The idea of an invasion of the Soviet Union was the most stupid idea of Hitler together with the Holocaust.
Honestly one of the best options is also having Hitler die early. His successor would be infinitely more suited if they just don't meddle with the military. Hitler was a great demagogue (with the help of others) but he definitely was no military strategist or logistics expert.
For example the whole development of the Me 262 jet fighters was set back by months and months because Adolf himself wanted them to be fighter-bombers...

It's a really awful idea, but apparently it was Hitler's intention. Here's from "Table Talk":

> We must take care to prevent a military power from ever again establishing itself on this side of the Urals, for our neighbours to the West would always be allied with our neighbours to the East. That's how the French once made common cause with
the Turks, and now the English are behaving in the same fashion with the Soviets. When I say, on this side o fthe Urals, I mean a line running two or three hundred kilometres east of the Urals.

> It should be possible for us to control this region to the East with two hundred thousand men plus a cadre of good colonial administrators. Let's leam from the English, who, with two hundred and fifty thousand men in all, including fifty thousand soldiers, govern four hundred million Indians. This space in Russia must always be dominated by Germans.

> Nothing would be a worse mistake on our part than to seek to educate the masses there. It is to our interest that the people should know just enough to recognise the signs on the roads.

Because Hitler hit them in June of '41, not too long after one of Stalin's purges.
Lend Lease was enormously important, but if there hadn't been that pressure of invading Nazis then they might not have needed it so much - they have 3 years to do what they did IRL. Lend Lease would still help though

Then there's things like when they moved a shit-ton of factories beyond the Urals in 41 after it became clear the Germans were coming, which saved them and meant they could keep working once they were put back together, but was still a huge undertaking that lost them a few months production.

>>51394563
Not breaking the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, and probably not trying Sealion either - the Kreigsmarine really wasn't up to the job.

A myth, but it could happen in your fantasy world:

>Himmler's personal masseur Felix Kersten claimed that the former even contemplated resettling the entire Dutch population, some 8 million people in total at the time, to agricultural lands in the Vistula and Bug River valleys of German-occupied Poland as the most efficient way of facilitating their immediate Germanization.[60] In this eventuality he is alleged to have further hoped to establish an SS Province of Holland in vacated Dutch territory, and to distribute all confiscated Dutch property and real estate among reliable SS-men.[61] However this claim was shown to be a myth by Loe de Jong in his book Two Legends of the Third Reich.[62]

>The objective was to undermine the national cohesion of the Russians by promoting regional identification; a Russian from the Gorki Generalkommissariat was to feel that he was different from a Russian in the Tula Generalkommissariat.[37] Also, a source of discussion in the Nazi circles was the replacement of the Cyrillic letters with the German alphabet.[38] In July 1944, Himmler ordered Ernst Kaltenbrunner, the head of the RSHA, to begin the exporting of the faith of the Jehovah's Witnesses to the occupied east.[39] Himmler considered the Jehovah's Witnesses of being frugal, hard-working, honest and fanatic in their pacifism, and that these traits were extremely desirable for the suppressed nations in the east

>In the Greater Poland (Wielkopolska) region (joined together with the Łódź district and dubbed "Wartheland" by the Germans), the Nazis' goal was the complete "Germanization", or political, cultural, social, and economic assimilation of the territory into the German Reich. In pursuit of this goal, the installed bureaucracy renamed streets and cities and seized tens of thousands of Polish enterprises, from large industrial firms to small shops, without payment to the owners. This area incorporated 350,000 such "ethnic Germans" and 1.7 million Poles deemed Germanizable, including between one and two hundred thousand children who had been taken from their parents (plus about 400,000 German settlers from the "Old Reich").[19] They were housed in farms left vacant by expulsion of the local Poles.[20] Militant party members were sent to teach them to be "true Germans".[21] Hitler Youth and League of German Girls sent young people for "Eastern Service", which entailed (particularly for the girls) assisting in Germanization efforts.[22] They were harassed by Polish partisans (Armia Krajowa) during the war.

If you have this, the Anglo-Allies are still essentially unbeaten and will still achieve air dominance. While odds of attacking onto the European mainland are low, attacks from the air are likely to be unceasing.

Hmm... I feel like any peace with the western allies, leaving france still occupied would have been impossible.
Further, Hitler and the germans respected France as culturally and ethnically distinct from the german.
A 'gracious' peace with the western allies immediately after the fall of Paris, with the germans de-occupying most of France, and perhaps Holland, allowing them to throw all of their forces and armour at Operation Barbarossa in the initial shock of operations, when they actually had a chance of KO'ing the soviets seems the most likely way that they might have come out on top.

>>51395726

Or something like this:
The US never opens up Pearl Harbor for the Japanese bombing as an excuse to get into the war, and the Japanese army doesn't run out of resources, doesn't lose morale and doesn't get disbanded at the end of the war.
A stronger Japan means a weaker Russia and China, and at the end of the war, the Nazis still lose but have put a deep dent in the Soviet Union and Britain. While political opposition to Japan is an obstacle, the Soviet proves itself unable to maintain its eastern territories, and Siberian territories crumble away to Japan at the promise of a stable economy and mining, logging and industrial jobs.
Britain staggers on for a decade with ruined historical buildings, rationing, civil unrest and its infrastructure in tatters - and in the end needs to take a huge loan from still-fascist (but peaceful) Greater Japan, as well as take in a large amount of Japanese workers to administrate the rebuilding.
That way, you can get the Nazi thrill without swastikas and Hitler, and the "Japan will take over the world" story without as much panicked racism.

The atlantropa project sounds cool as fuck, say what you will about the nazis but they were ambitious.

-A network of tiefplatzes for this workforce are implemented to restore war damage and produce infrastructure, quarries, roads, factories, V-10 launch bays etc. Some selected people are killed just as before, but most are put to work like this.

-All non-german dead are processed: soap to clean inferiors, fertilizer to feed the future, canned food for inferiors, non-germanic servitude extends unto death. Germania's Golden Reich* will be born from their ashes.

*color symbolism: blond hair, fields of wheat, prosperity, previous reiches defined as iron, bronze, silver.

Wildlifes Reserves and ocasional hunting grounds are created in the whole of Europe, future homes for auroches, european lions and other reborn species. Guess what is used as bait?

Argentina and the brazilian south fuse into the Silberland Protectorate. South America itself is the playground for a Great Game between USA and the Reich.

German cultural imperialism is exported just as american culture is today. Some german city becomes a sort of Hollywood where things are looser, and a contraculture develops.

If history didn't go the way it has, we wouldn't be able to read up on Willy waggling shenanigans. Seriously, Germany history from 1871 and 1914 is like a fucking sitcom.

Unlikely, by supporting Germany over France and Russia they would have effectively been submitting to German hegemony.

It was mostly a concession to prevent the reds from getting into power. That said, under certain conditions the welfare state is a good idea. It only sucks when both patriotism decline and a large group of foreigners that don't consider themselves part of the people start exploiting that system. It basically falls apart when people stop realizing it's "their" money the government is using, and start seeing it as the money of someone else.

Though if Bismarck ever made a mistake other than being born German, that was probably it.

>>51398193
Wilhelm was.... weird. He was an Anglophile and an Anglophobe at the same time. He loved England and he loved Victoria (his aunt, I think?) but at the same time he hated England. He visited their ports at some point and fell in love with their fleet, but at the same time he wanted to crush it with his own. I think it all started when his mother insisted on getting a British docter to assist with her birth, which resulted in Willy having a fucked up arm (which is unbefitting of a Prussian prince, who was expected to be an exemplary warrior-king).

>>51398286
I think a best-case scenario for Germany is securing British neutrality. If we want to go into alternative history, I can foresee the following ways WW1 develop in a non-Entente Cordiale world.
>Germany attacks France through its eastern borders. France would probably have a much easier time defending itself and Plan XVII might actually work
>Germany attacks through Belgium, Britain joins anyway, more or less historical WW1
>Germany attacks through Belgium, Britain doesn't join. At this point it depends on whether or not France could pull a Miracle of the Marne without the BEF (which was incredibly small and died off rather soon, but was also incredibly professional and held off German conscript armies many times its size). I don't know enough about WW1 to call this.

>What would the towns and cities look like?

Much like they do today, except some more grandiose neo-classical architecture on government buildings. Oh, and fewer minorities. A lot fewer.

>What would life for the average person be like? Not just the Polish or Russian people, but also the German settlers that the "lebensraum" was meant for? How would relationships between the native people and settlers be like, in a post-Hitler world - some kind of uneasy co-existence, or violent hostility like the Old West frontier?

There would have been lots of purges, slavic ethnic groups would probably have seen their populations dramatically reduced. Ethnic Germans in the "lebensraum" area would have struggled at first, due to ideologically motivated policies, but things would have stabilized in less than a decade. Economic growth would have been slow due to excessive planning. The communities built in the conquered territories would have had an artificial feel, as they would represent idealized versions of German villages.

My personal theory is that after Hitler and his generation of leaders died out, around the 60s and 70s, you'd see a transition to from National Socialism towards a sort of Democratic Nationalism. It would have been a bit like post war America. A strongly nationalistic population, which saw The State as central to civic life without excluding other institutions of civil society. The thing about convincing your people they are a master race, they would probably insist on having broad rights and political power.

I've always loved the Z-Plan Ships, and Germany's WWII Navy. Raeder was lucky in that he had far more freedom than any of the Kaiser's Admirals ever did. Until displaced by Dönitz he could run the naval war as he saw fit.

>>51402552
Also would be very interesting to see how those ships' refits and modernizations would look in such an alternate timeline.

German ships always woefully lacked in AA compared to e.g. the US ships bristling with 40-mm Bofors and radar equipment.

>>51394142
Honestly, I'm kind of thinking it'll look like ACCA.

>>51402953

Given the shift in the H-Class, getting more and more excessive with time, I think that's the exact same shift they'd go through in refits. Hitler's grandiose ambitions would eventually hit his Navy.

>>51398688
There's always the possibility of the war not actually being started by the central powers/the central powers not even existing. A German-British alliance would just bring France and Russia even closer which was seen as a threat by the Brits in the 1890s.

>>51401006

This is what I think as well - massive reduction of those peoples in Hitler's time, followed by a more moderate policy by his successors.

Far from all Nazis had this "kill em all" approach to Eastern Europe. But since Hitler and Himmler thought this way, it would've been the initial approach.

>>51405551
>There's always the possibility of the war not actually being started by the central powers/the central powers not even existing.
In that case Germany is straight-up fucked. The July Crisis reveals the Germans wanted war sooner rather than later. That's because the Germans had no interest in peace, and they wanted to go to war in the best possible situation. France and Russia were pretty close (despite one being a revolutionary republic and the other an ancien regime monarchy. That always struck me as pretty weird) and in for example 1917 they'd be unstoppable: France would be fully mobilized (and have their Horizon Blue uniforms issued to all their troops) while Russia's railway system and industry would've been modernized to such an extent it'd allow them to entirely overshadow Germany. In 1914 the Germans fought against an unprepared France and a backwards Russia (and Britain) and even then they lost.

Keep in mind that in this timeline, european politics between 1888 and 1914 would most likely be fundamentally different. Germany and the UK would be a lot closer, which in turn would bring France and Russia together earlier which might provoke a war before 1914, for example over conflicting interests of France and Britain in Africa. Also France, just as Germany, was very dependent on food imports so a sea blockade would probably hit them very hard as well.

I think this was a big reason why the Brits and French were so disgusted by the Nazis - the methods they used to rule their occupied Eastern European territories weren't all that different from how the Brits and French dealt with their colonies in Asia and Africa, but it wasn't supposed to happen in Europe. The way the Nazis massacred the town Lidice was really shocking by modern European standards, but it was standard policy for "pacification" in French Indochina, among other places. They brought colonialism home to Europe, so to speak.

Hitler seems to have liked this comparison. He often called the Ukrainians "negroes" and "a colonial people".

Without a balance of power and the total dominance of a single super state the situation turns into hell for the smaller countries. The super power extends its reach towards them ,creating incredible chaos for furthering its own agenda. Also the goals turn from patriotism and ideological motivations to consumerism. This in turn will lead to stagnation of the sociiety and degredation of the civilization. A constant struggle between opposing factions is important even if it is dangerous. Otherwise it will be the fall of roman civilization v2.

I'd say that the most realistic Nazi-victory scenario is for the Battle of the Bulge to be successful (somehow) and the USA / Canada / UK are cut off - Hitler then surrenders to the Allies on favourable terms, and joins with them to fight off the Soviets. France is freed, the Soviets are pushed back to the Russian borders, Germany is granted everything east of Germany with the support of the Allies to keep the Soviets out of Europe proper.

Nupe. The last realistic chance of victory the Nazis had was crushing the Red Army, taking Moscow and driving the Soviets beyond the Urals in '43. The war was a forgone conclusion by the time the western Allies landed in France.

Kursk ended the Wehrmacht's chances of victory in the east.

>>51410975
Well you'd have a much more depopulated eastern Europe and instead of post-war reconstruction in the West aided by the USA's economic dominance, you'd have a central European economy being horribly mismanaged by Hitler et al and no outside aid.

>Nazi Germany winning the space race is probable

German post-war economy would have been a shit-show worse than the USSR's was, even if they won. Even prior to the invasion of Poland, Hitler was being warned by his own advisors that his plans to occupy relatively undeveloped eastern European territories would actually end up being a burden rather than a benefit on the German economy. They simply wouldn't be able to afford an Apollo program.

Couple with the fact that as soon as his V2's weren't neccesary anymore, Von Braun would have probably been thrown back into jail as a political dissenter, as he was during the war for 'defeatism' when he complained at a private dinner party that he'd prefer to be using rockets to explore space rather than flatten London landmarks.

Hitler was much, much more into architecture than rockets for enhancing national prestige, just look at how much influence his personal architect, Albert Speer had within his inner circle, relative to the V2 rocket program which had to fight for funding with half a dozen other wunderwaffe programs. The Nazi's rocket program would have been slashed the moment they didn't have anyone to launch them at anymore.

I don't know where the 'If the Nazis won we'd have Moon colonies by now!' meme has come from, but it's exactly that, a meme.

Question about those wunderwaffe: other than rockets, were they viable? Because from a lot of people I get the impression that Hitler threw money at the most retarded playthings rather than at Russia or Britain or America.

Though on the flipside, a succesful wunderwaffe could've turned the tide of the war (the atombomb could be considered one) so maybe it wasn't as stupid a modus operandi as it might appear?

I'm wondering what 60s America would look like.

Without lend lease and the war in Europe, all the war production is going to go East. And the war in the Pacific is going to be much different.

Be interesting to see how the development of the a-bomb happens.

China's going to play or a lot different too, with both the US and Russia having more resources free.

>>51411299
>were they viable?

Depends what you mean by viable. Would they have been able to get them to work? Most of them, probably. Would they have been a cost effective use of increasingly limited resources? Definately not.

The V2 program wasn't even really viable. If they'd developed them earlier in the war, then yeah, they might have stood a chance of forcing Britain to surrender since the V2's were practically impossible to intercept and did catastrophic damage. That is assuming the Nazis actually worked out that their entire spy network in the UK was being run by British Military Intelligence agencies and their best spy-ring for reporting successful strikes was actually just a single Portugese guy and his collection of sockpuppets.

Even then, Britain wasn't the real threat to Germany, it would have helped, but V2's wouldn't have done shit against mobile Red Army divisions so really it was just a huge waste of resources.

They should have just put their money into perfecting the Panther and streamlining it's production, rather than fucking about with 'war winning' super-weapon concepts.

At sea, if they'd ramped up U-Boat production rather than trying to get into a dick measuring contest with the British Home Fleet's battleships, again, they would have had much greater success.

>>51411323
Well enlighten me please.

Because I haven't got a clue how a nation which would be busy making the Weimar Republic look like a prosperous economic powerhouse, had already plunged itself massively into debt creating the illusion of prosperity in the late 30's AND had just sunk huge sums of capital into an unexpectedly prolonged and bloody war, would suddenly be able to do something that ultimately defeated the much more technically adept and economically stable USSR.

Yeah, after they'd already wasted a fuck load of resources building the Bismark class warships. They even laid down steel for the next gen super-battleships which were nothing but an 'ours are bigger than yours!' aimed at the USA and Japan.

Plus, they then wasted a load of time developing 14 different, new kinds of U-Boat, instead of picking one and producing enough of them to starve Britain into surrender. This is true across their entire war effort.

People get the idea that the Nazis were running on super-science because they had all these 'firsts' relative to the Allies, when in reality, both sides were usually considering the same tech.

The Allies did a cost-benefit analysis and decided a new super-heavy tank that could solo thirty Tiger II's but could only be moved on the five largest roads in Yurup wasn't worth it and just built another 10,000 Shermans with a slightly bigger gun.

The Nazis would just shout 'FUND IT!' before yanking the money from the program three months later to allocate it to the next thing that had caught the Fuhrer's fancy.

The Nazis funded research programs like a retarded kid trying to pick what he wants in a sweet shop.

So Japan simply did not have the industrial or military capacity to defeat America but tried it anyway, and Germany would've had the capacity to defeat the Soviet Union and Britain if they actually spent their money reasonably?

Holy hell, so many people died for this unorganized shitfest? Which also makes me wonder... Japan did Pearl Harbor in 1942, right? The same year as Stalingrad? And they also signed a non-agression pact with the SU right? Maybe I'm saying something incredibly stupid here, but even if the Japs were starved for resources wouldn't it be better to invade Russia? Even if Stalingrad ended in a German defeat, the Russians would now have to fight on two fronts thousands of kilometers removed from eachother, and every victory on one front would translate to a defeat on the other. Was the only reason for this really the Japanese navy having a tight grip on the emperor?

I guess the old saying is true: war is far too important to be left to politicians.

>>51411884
Pearl Harbor was 1941. And no, Germany did not have the industrial capacity to beat the Soviets, their only chance was a quick success with Operation Barbarossa and beating the USSR to a pulp before they could organize

>>51411799
There was also shit like the way Hitler believed competition would breed strength and efficiency, even in things like research and military divisions - which was why there were several nazi nuclear programs, all fighting for resources, and why the SS had panzer divisions even when the Heer was under-supplied

Japan invading Russia would have have ended with Soviet realizing that it might be time to surrender their eastern lands.

To play the devil's advocate, on paper that sounds like a good idea.

>>51412012
It was a good idea for Hitler, it meant people were always second guessing and attempting to curry favour with him, which is how he ended up so firmly secured in his position.

Unfortunately it also makes everyone as paranoid as fuck, and means everyone is constantly overstating their own perfomance, understating their rivals (or actively trying to fuck them) and generally just means you're playing Divide and Conquer with your own people. It's part of the reason people rarely criticsed his decisions, not matter how mental.

None of which is helpful when attempting to fight a major industrialised war.

Good for the man, bad for the country.

Isn't that the most overdone type of alt-history?

What about a setting where the the Allied invasion never gets beyond liberating France, and Germany and adjacent lands fall into Soviet hands? Alternative Cold War where much of Europe is under a more successful Soviet Union?
Haven't seen that before.

>>51411884
>Germany would've had the capacity to defeat the Soviet Union

Technically. Again, it was Hitler who decisively fucked them by micro-managing his generals on the eastern front, but really, the whole of Op Barbarossa was a pretty desperate attempt to flatten the USSR before it picked up momentum. Stalingrad was a mess and it was largely Hitler's doing that it went on long enough for the units there to be cut off.

Hitler, being the egomaniac that he was (seriously, read Table Talk and Albert Speer's autobiography) focused on Stalingrad because in his mind, reputation was everything and Stalingrad carried his opponent's name. Stalin just saw it as a good opportunity to drag a large chunk of the Germans invading his country into an unneccesary war of attrition that his forces were much better equipped for.

The moment the Red Army got their act together, they could defence in depth to such a ridiculous degree that the relatively small Wehrmacht didn't have a hope. Blitzkrieg only works if you can punch out through the enemy lines into their soft underbelly, their logistics. The Red Army was so fucking deep the panzers ran out of fuel before the reached the rear echelon.

Japan was fucked the moment it poked the USA. Even if they'd completely sunk the whole US fleet at Pearl Harbor, American industrial capacity could replace naval losses faster than anyone else on the planet by a long way, and the US population is collossal next to Japan's. Even the guy who led the Pearl Harbor attack knew they'd already lost before the last ship finished burning.

I assume they thought they could hit America, grab a bunch of Pacific Islands whilst it's fleet was out of commission, then try and sue for peace. No idea WHY they thought that, but they did apparantly. Bit like Hitler expecting Britain and France to ignore the Luftwaffe flattening Warsaw, it apparantly did genuinely shock him, which makes you wonder what world he was living in.

GURPS Alternate Earths did this. Several times, actually. They're they various Reich timelines, with Reich-5 being a near-future high tech nazi world. Remarkably complete treatments.

The lastest version is a chapter in Infinite Worlds; however, that chapter mostly focuses on the Reich timelines in the context of their covert operations on other parallel universes. The version in Alternate Earths (or possibly Alternate Earths II, I forget which) is more workable for a standalone game in its own right.

The bottom line is that where your divergence point goes will greatly determine what the post-war world looks like.

One thing to note: the myth that nazi germany was highly productive and efficient economically isn't supported by the facts. The nazis themselves wanted to look good, and the allies wanted them to look powerful so as to encourage their own war efforts ("Work harder! The nazis are putting in overtime!"). In truth, like other nationalized systems, there was an initial "sugar rush" of productivity in the first days after nationalization, followed by a long decline in innovation and productivity and a vast increase in corruption. Up to a certain point, looted riches and slave labor made up the difference, but in the end even that didn't reverse the decline. In many ways, that was even more devastating than allied bombing.

The Soviets went through something similar, but it took much, much longer. And no I don't think it was their system that made the difference-- some communist systems identical to the Russians' fell apart much more quickly. It doesn't appear to have been culture, either. I'm not sure what the difference was.

Of course, the nazis after a victory and under a new fuhrer might have made radical changes to their system, much as Deng Xiaoping changed things and turned China into a powerhouse global power. It's so dependent on individual personalities and events that you're pretty much free to author things however you want them.

>>51394782

IRL Stalin had just purged the Russian army general staff. As in, pretty much liquidated everybody. Yes, Russia survived by luck, iron determination, and a ton of American money and materiel aid.

Stalin was sure he had at least a year before Germany set its sights on Russia. He wasn't a fool. He saw that Germany couldn't handle a two-front war, and felt that Hitler wouldn't attack while the Soviets were still sending the Nazis raw materials.

I think his plan was to let the fascists and free-marketers fight it out. Whichever side won, they would be dangerously weakened by the effort and Stalin could march in and gobble up everything himself. His own writings from the time seem to support that. Many in the older generation hate this theory, because it smacks of the nazi propaganda meant to justify Barbarossa... but allied rapproachment with the USSR was sensible and moral enough without them having to be painted as totally innocent victims.

Meanwhile, Stalin felt that Britain's plan was to provoke a Russo-German war. That Britain's plan was to conquer Europe by waiting for that war and then storming across europe turning it into an imperialist capitalist bastion. So he basically didn't believe any of the intelligence reports he got (tons!) that said that the Germans were planning invasion. It just didn't seem possible to Stalin because it was so dumb.

Hitler was driven by a sense of destiny and his own belief that he'd die in early middle age. He felt that only he had the will to defeat Russia, so he moved up the timeline. I think he also saw Russia's industrialization and maybe felt it was "now or never" not realizing that there was no condition under which Germany could fight the entire world and win. IE "never or never". But that last point is controversial. Also, given Hitler's personality, it's possible that Barbarossa was driven at least in part by boredom and a desire for more short glorious ground campaigns.

>>51412262

Germany was also greatly hobbled by poor intelligence capabilities. The British famously turned nearly every german officer sent ashore and doubled nearly every agent they recruited. And that's in addition to one of the greatest triumphs of signals intelligence in world history.

The Russians penetrated them so hard that the German ambassador to the USSR warned them about Barbarossa. Sure, Stalin refused to listen to his intelligence agencies, but once the shooting started the soviet commanders got better briefings on German general staff activity and planning than the Germans' own field commanders.

So far as I know, and despite widespread propaganda to the contrary at the time, the Nazis basically failed to recruit anybody of consequence, and their signals intelligence was surprisingly weak as well (the Red Orchestra's capture being more about the GRU's desperation than the germans' competence).

There was a lot of spy-vs-spy skullduggery in the occupied countries' colonies and neutral countries. But not much of that amounted to anything.

Some I think was that (like Americans) the Germans weren't culturally suited to espionage. But I think much of it was ideological. Hitler had no shortage of admirers... before the war. Once the war broke out, his supporters in other countries were mostly nationalists for their OWN countries rather than Germany and so cut their ties.

Fun fact: the House Un-American Activities Committee searched for and attacked suspected fascist sympathizers on weak or no evidence-- often going after political rivals rather than real nazis. The tactics were used ten yeras later by the same committee to go after communists-- called the Red Scare.

WW2 was an allied punitive conflict against the Germans. They couldn't give less of a shit about the Russians and anyone who did got Patton'd.

Albert Speer talks about his and Hitler's concepts:

>Our happiest concept, comparatively speaking, was the central railroad
station, the southern pole of Hitler’s grand boulevard. The station, its steel
ribbing showing through sheathings of copper and glass, would have
handsomely offset the great blocks of stone dominating the rest of the avenue.
It provided for four traffic levels linked by escalators and elevators and was
to surpass New York’s Grand Central Station in size.

>State visitors would have descended a large outside staircase. The idea
was that as soon as they, as well as ordinary travelers, stepped out of the
station they would be overwhelmed, or rather stunned, by the urban scene
and thus the power of the Reich. The station plaza, thirty-three hundred feet
long and a thousand feet wide, was to be lined with captured weapons, after
the fashion of the Avenue of Rams which leads from Karnak to Luxor. Hitler
conceived this detail after the campaign in France and came back to it again
in the late autumn of 1941, after his first defeats in the Soviet Union.
This plaza was to be crowned by Hitler’s great arch or ‘Arch of Triumph’ as he only occasionally called it. Napoleon’s Arc de Triomphe on the Place de l’Etoile with its one-hundred-sixty foot height certainly presents a
monumental appearance and provides a majestic terminus to the Champs
Elysées. Our triumphal arch, five hundred and fifty feet wide, three hundred
and ninety-two feet deep, and three hundred and eighty-six feet high, would
have towered over all the other buildings of this southern portion of the
avenue and would literally have dwarfed them.

Hitler really had an obsession with surpassing Paris, didn't he? He even had half a mind to destroy it as soon as he conquered it, and then again gave orders to destroy it in 1944 as the Germans were retreating. In that between period his idea was to 'destroy' it by overshadowing it.

Paris and Rome seem to have been Hitler's ideal cities, yes. In his memoirs, Albert Speer also notices this:

> ...there was an adolescent feature of Hitler’s approach to architecture:
whatever he designed had to be gigantic. His boulevard had to be wider than its
counterpart in Paris. In Linz, he wanted to rebuild a marble frieze to make it the
longest in Europe. The Reich Chancellery in Berlin
was to have a corridor running from the main entrance to his study over a quarter
of a mile long. Hitler wanted a visitor to feel he was ‘visiting the master of the world’. Even in his Alpine mountain retreat, the Berghof, he had
to incorporate the largest lowerable window in existence.

- Atlantropa was the project of Hermann Sorgel, a kooky scientist who ran a one-man campaign. The Nazis had nothing to do with this sea-draining project.

That one scenario you think is plausible is basically the LEAST likely scenario. Roosevelt considered Russia a non-threat at worst and a country to be charmed back into the community of nations at best. Call it deluded if you like, but that's how things played out even before Hitler was a factor.

There are several turning points where the Nazis might have won. The initial drive to Moscow was much closer than the allies realized or the Soviets were willing to admit. Stalin himself might have been overthrown and the Russians defeated in the chaos. In the first days of Barbarossa, the Russians and especially Ukrainians welcomed the Nazis as liberators... had the Nazis not been mustache-twirling evil supervillians without being willing to even fake a trace of mercy or respect they might have won (and then shown their true colors). Roosevelt might not have been able to get lend-lease to help the Russians... or might have died, given his delicate health. FDR's vp was terrible (and eventually replaced by Truman in our timeline), we can only guess how stupidly he might have prosecuted WW2. Churchill quashed all talk of an armistice to buy time in the days when Britain stood alone; had he not been prime minister, the Brits might have done that to buy time... not understanding that time helped the Nazis even more. Japan's attack on America might have been later, different, or not at all. Or, Germany might not have declared war on America in solidarity with the Japanese, forcing America to fight a bloody island-hopping campaign FIRST while the Nazis defeated the Russians and sealed the North Atlantic.

The German physicists might not have dragged their feet on war technology, or might have seen the possibility of a fission weapon, but either way a nuke delivered by buzzbomb to London might have been war-ending.

There is a long list of things that might have handed the war to the Germans. None terribly likely, but history is full of weird chances.

Cars at the time of Hitler were the glorious new technology. Remember also that roads are more flexible, and inflexible mobilization schedules were a key cause of WW1.

Remember also that looks were way more important than genuine efficiency. So if huge long highways with few on and off ramps looked better to some party functionary, then that's what you get approval from the Party to build.

Korea and a nationalist China emerge as independent, nationalist republics friendly to the USA, and competing with the Reich for the remains of the Soviet Empire.
>British colonies are still released, but communism is less popular than German style Fascism, with a less authoritarian and more industrial bent.
>1950's the Culture War between the USA and the Reich begins with German investment in radio, films and television that subtly and sometimes openly attack US culture and democracy. The USA fears to be losing its status as a "shining city upon a hill" that all the world looks to when the Reich launches the worlds first satellite in 1952. A space race begins, which the German have an immense lead in. However, the US exportation of popular culture is more popular than that of the Reich. Young aryans from Amsterdam to Konigsberg wear jeans, listen to exotic jazz and talk about Marlon Brando and Rear Window. American culture is even more popular in East Asia, especially in Japan, China and Indochina, where hundreds of thousands of US troops are stationed
>Reformers in Germany's Ministry of Culture are worried that state planning is hampering the ability of Aryanism to spread beyond the borders of the Reich. Their concerns are noted but ignored as non-aryan culture is irrelevant except in it's elimination

If I was to run this I would go with a couple of assumptions.

Japan never attacked the US. Instead focused on China and the suez canal.

America remained isolationist.

War in the east happened; and is still on going. Soviet Russians and Chinese moaist fight a war supplied via American companies wanting raw resources (think modern day africa, weapons for diamonds, gold, food, oil etc.).

Occupied countries dissestablishd and separated/ combined into manageable independent Colonial governorships.

Mass forced eugenics and migration has moved populations in the colonial areas east and west French to Eastern Europe slavs to France etc.

England still at war, and currently suffering from embargo.

Canada and the other colonies fending off aggression. India has become independent but as multiple different countries.

South Africa suffered a boer uprising and while not part of the 3rd riech it is closely tied to it in Africa where British, Belgium and French rule is being removed and replaced via Italian and German aggression.

The US and Germany both have nuclear capabilities. First drop was on Moscow via v2 to start German Russian war.

Ahhh, finally the /pol/tards show up to shitpost in what's been a pretty decent thread so far.

lol, haven't heard of any Soviet soldiers forcing German women into marriage...normally, the war bride thing happens when the conqueror is richer than the conquered people. That wasn't really the case with the Soviets, who were a lot poorer than the Germans.

But yeah, a lot of violent raping on top of fathers' corpses, and lot of German husbands getting cuckolded by a whole platoon and hanging themselves. Not really a pleasant topic - although, to be fair, it's still more kind than what the Germans would've done if they won.

Well, something interesting is that some of the Nazis were pretty interested in Islam. They thought it was more compatible with Nazism than Christianity. I believe it was Himmler thought that Muslims would make better soldiers due to their belief in martyrdom in combat, and organized Muslim SS units.
Assuming this idea started to get implemented on a wide scale, you could see something interesting with what's essentially a "Nazi Jannissary Corps" of fanatics indoctrinated into a Nazified form of Islam. Maybe that's one "path to usefulness" for all of the semi-untermenschen who aren't being exterminated outright. Strong children are taken and indoctrinated at a young age, taught to think of themselves as simultaneously elite and servile, the iron shield that protects their Germanic masters. They're usually sent to the frontlines in whatever continuous rapacious wars are going on, as their casualties are less important than those of "pure" German units. In the continual Social Darwinist struggle of conflicting Nazi government wings, controlling and influencing the Jannissaries might be one of the key factors to ensuring your will is made manifest.

>>51418872
Intriguing. I can also totally see the Nazi Muslim Janissaries instituting a coup against the Reich in 2040.

>>51418872

Whoa, that's a weird twist.

Actually, it's also weird but true that some online Aryan supremacists are actually Arabs. I don't know what the attraction is. Maybe the antisemitism? But yeah there's this weird Nazi/Arab nationalism crossover. And, no, before you ask I know a lot of Iranians (ie actual real Aryans) and none give a flying fuck about Hitler even when they're happy Persian nationalists. I guess they're confident enough in their historical identity that they don't need to borrow someone else's.

This thread has some wild, far-out ideas. Definitely have to try some if I do infinite worlds.

>>51418872
It's worth noting that the version of Islam that Hitler admired was basically what you see in Lawrence of Arabia, not the modern Iranian or Saudi theocratic state versions of Islam.

Islam in the pre-oil Middle East was mostly about being a warrior loyal to tribe and family. The actual religious aspects of it were of trivial importance to the average Arab. Plus, it was heavily romanticized in pop-culture depictions in the west, in a way essentially comparable to the unhistorical 19th century version of the Viking ideal. So Hitler sees these mysterious badasses in the desert who hate Jews, love war, are devoted to their own people, and believe in a strict code of honor. It's understandable how that would appeal to him.

There's no real reason to believe that a modern Nazi regime would be tolerant of what Islam has turned into in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

Heh. Have you considered treating the Germans honorably, helping them rebuild, all the while looking at them with disgust and horror at their crimes? Having those same conquerors selflessly stand vigil for half a century to defend them from enemies who you treated with unspeakable barbarity and who now want bloody justice? Having them live with themselves as the moral lepers of the world, an embarrassment to their own children? An example to the world of naked evil? Realizing that you were wrong, that your victims were better than you, and that you're almost irredeemably damned?

No, it's just that to maintain regional power and global relevance, the EU (conceptually, not in practice, obviously right now the EU itself is a shitshow) is really the best way to go.

Keep in mind that neither of those goals is necessarily a positive or a negative, but if those are your goals, you really only have federation as a real option.

I'm not sure that there's any chain of decisions that lead Hitler's Germany to victory in WW2. Just different paths to defeat.

If you mean out of positions of power, you're right. If you mean dead, then you're wrong. Stalin died before the Doctors Plot purge went anywhere. Jews suffered harassment, but that's it.

I did mean out of power, yes. Good thing to bring up, though.

Do we have any figures on the economic impact of creating the concentration camps? How much in terms of fiscal resources could they have freed up by not making them, and instead keeping suppression at an ideological and police level?

>>51418429
>>51418473
This was actually a fact, hundreds of thousands of Germans were removed to Russia to "work" to repay the Soviet Union.

>>51420323

Nothing better than guesses and declarations. If you're going to measure it empirically, the problem is that you only get to do it one way, so you never really know the counterfactual.

The Nazi work camps are believed to have been pretty much useless or worse. Partly that's Nazi corruption/incompetence, partly it's that German industry required materials machined to higher tolerances, and partly it's that the work camps were never seen as real economic assets they way they were for the Soviets, Chinese, or others. They were run more to be misery for their victims than to maximize production.

In general, slave labor isn't super efficient, and as you go from early to late industrial revolution, the skill/motivation factor becomes decisive. Gulags turn skilled, at least somewhat motivated citizens into unwilling unskilled slave laborers. Because you can't trust someone to use any skills they have. The stuff prisoners can do will always be the first and most easily made obsolete by machinery and (later) automation. Plus, it's not a resource you can easily reassign as social needs change.

If you want a hint about how bad concentration camps are as economic assets, take a look at what Deng Xiaoping did for China in the 80s. He liberalized a very narrow strip of China, and the growth there fed massive standard of living improvements for the whole country. Now the army's gulags and the prison camps are all that's left of communist economics there... And both are big black holes for money, they have to be lavishly subsidized to stay afloat.

The big thing is this. Go into Excel and calculate 1.01, 1.02, 1.03... 1.06, each on its own column, each taken to the 50th power (50 years of compounding). That's how much the country's economy grows by over that period, and taken per capita, is how much your standard of living goes up. See what a difference even 1% difference in growth rate makes?

Gulags are a dead end economically.

>>51394142
I had an idea for how the Nazis could, although not win the war, at least knock the Russians out: Instead of actually sane people deciding that Communists later is better than Nazis now, the people designing Lend-Lease think they can use it to keep the market-capitalists alive while letting the fascists and commies choke each other to death. So, they don't lend to Russia.

The little extra breathing room this gives the Germans let's them take Moscow, though not a lot further, which breaks Russian morale and most likely kills a large amount of the Soviet government. The USSR breaks up into rump states, most of which are puppets of the Germans or anarchists done with governments altogether, the Germans turn their attention elsewhere, though still have to leave a ton of men behind to keep it occupied.

However, with the Americans having entered the war by that time (Assuming Pearl Harbor still happens, which it probably would), Britain really can't fall due to it being so heavily guarded by the Allies, and none of the Axis really have a hope of touching anyone in America, as basically no European power has that ability due mostly just to distance and no friendly port to be based out of without conquering it first.

Not too sure where to take the idea from there. My thoughts were the Pacific theater becomes a bigger focus, probably with ideas of occupying Japan and helping/occupying China and going through Russia to get at the Germans being flung around, or invading up through the Alps in Italy.

That's stupid. The overwhelming majority of Lend-Lease happened in 43 and onward. Its impact was how it enabled Soviet large scale counterattacks, not help them hold on to the initial rush.

>>51421115
Fair. Just a stupid idea I was throwing around.

Hitler and Heisenberg both didn't see the value of nuclear weapons. Hitler wasn't awed by it compared to other flashier wonderweapons since the effects weren't immediately visible and the description sounded ludicrous at the time ("a thousand tons of TNT, the atmosphere might light on fire, etc"). Heisenberg and his team didn't accomplish much. They had a team of like 10 guys working in some basement. Whether it was because Heisenberg was a theoretical physicist and didn't really know engineering, or because he actually was anti Nazi (see: his meeting with Bohr) is unclear. Either way, the Nazis didn't have the scientific capability or the economic commitment to create a fission weapon before 1950. Compared to how much the US pumped into Los Alamos, with all the superstar physicists and engineers there, the possibility of a German nuclear bomb is one of the greatest myths of the war

>>51421285

It's definitely something I'll have to try. "Oops Jews were the real master race we doomed" was funny and unexpected, too.

>heh Nazis were so dumb, those DEATH CAMPS weren't remotely sensible
What a tremendously stupid person you must be.

>>51420742
Fascinating. It would seem that literally enslaving the slavs is a bad idea, or at least less productive then propaganda-ing them into compliance. Third Reich economic planning would be much easier if one could back off one annihilating the slavs.

>>51421380

No argument there. It's just a case of yet another what-if that might have driven the war the other way.

Hitler murdering and driving into exile with his enemies such an overwhelming number of his best scientists is a monument to "Oft evil will shall evil mar."

It would have been even more ironic if the fighting in Europe had still been in doubt when the Bomb was completed. The very people he drove out of his country and declared a war of extermination on would have been responsible for turning Nazi strongholds into radioactive parking lots.

>>51421493

Anon was asking about the labor camps' productivity. Not the death camps, which of course were a straightforward waste of resources that generated nothing in return.

Point being that command economies of any kind are bad news economically, regardless of the ideology that they wrap themselves in. The way for the third Reich to have enjoyed a good long term economy would have been to abandon racism and employ their human resources productively, or better yet ditch national socialism altogether and use free markets. Even a little extra growth over a long time results in vast differences in standards of living and overall economic might. The Germans learned this lesson quickly, the Russians took a generation longer before reality caught up to them. China took the hint and became a great power again.

>>51421666

Well, Free markets are on the decline again now. The cycle continues.

Would it be possible for Britain to coexist with Germany in the event of a German victory over the USSR? I can see all of Europe falling in line, save for the Brits, who agree to a peace deal since neither side is willing to pay the cost of killing each other. From that point the Continent becomes Nazi-EU, fairly banal save for an international effort to hunt communists, and dependent upon French, German and Italian Fascism to keep the rest of Europe from drifting away. The Italians give up on conquering the Balkans once Germany makes it clear that war is a waste of time, and everyone goes along merrily colonizing places outside Europe: The Germans colonize Poland, Ukraine and Western Russia; France pushes far harder to keep Algeria and succeeds in creating enough patriotism to crush revolution there, while still losing Vietnam; The Italians fuck around in North Africa but over time stabilize their colonies. Turkey receives funding from the Triple Alliance to keep radical Islam at bay, making it an honorary partner to the Triple Alliance, while acting as their ally in the Middle East.

I'm not sure what would happen to French and British mandates in the Middle East. Does anyone have a recommendation? This area of the world has been skipped over.

Well, Death camps sorta generated a return by allowing controlled alteration of demographics, which was a goal in itself for the Nazis

>>51421737
>Would it be possible for Britain to coexist with Germany in the event of a German victory over the USSR?

Not with Churchill and Hitler. But if Hitler dies early of cancer or something, and the Tories lose an election, then maybe a peace is "plausible enough" for RPG setting purposes.

>>51421691

It's the natural cycle: free markets can't outcompeted command economies in the political/persuasion arena, but command economies can't outcompeted free markets in the standard of living/economic might arena.

>>51421737

Whether the Nazis felt that what they got from the camps was politically worth it or not, economically they were a black hole that had an unequivocally negative impact on productivity.
