instead of an alliance with germans in 1940's
we chose war
Alliance was impossible
But Germany should've been invaded in 1939
Because France and Britain pledged to do so, and had responsibility to do so, in respect to their fallen in WW I and for the sake of sparring another generation of well born people of slaughter
France was a liberal country with a fucked up government
Soviet Union was ironically, the last saving grace for Britain and France
Britain, i don't know, but they didn't xant wxar too
Because all the millions killed in the east would have had to fall in the west instead
Soviet Union just fucked up Europe
They even counted on this scenario
Yes they didn't want war
That's what kid says when he must go do a chore "I don't want tooooo"
Reality is, consequences were clear
Consequences of lack of proper response to another German agression
i don't put the fault on them defense
but the fact is
It is well known that only complete fools get tricked with same trick twice (pre-emptive invasion through Belgium)
soviet union fucked up europe
Even greater and even more impossible fact
is that British and France *planned in advance* that they will defend again in northern france and will repeat WW I
Which is utterly horrific
and deeper in fact, the fault is french's Traité de Versailles
You pledge to repeat the same completely flawed strategy because last time it ended with your pyrrhic victory
France didn't accept reality, tactitians were uncompetant
And partake no pre-emptive action yourself
It's par exellence the type of burreaucratic thinking common to Europeans
"stick with what worked last time"
Soviet Union is the result of all of that
Hitler-Stalin pact is the result of French and British incompetence
Which would have never happened have they only pledged to invade Germany as soon as it reoccuppied Rhineland, or mess with a neighbouring nation
All the beggining is Napoleon
like said @Salt
They only had to pledge to do so, because Hitler would've never did all he did if he didn't observe complete lethargy
Well, Napoleon was in many ways a better leader than what followed
He was ambitious yes, but his "acts" were always backed up by rifles and boots
He was distrustful of burreaucracy
in Hearths of Iron 4, i invade earth cause it's cool
in the real world, this is stupid
Hitler paid too
