that was annexation bcs of Britain and France selling out their smaller allies to slow down germany to give themselves time

There is a prominent historian who considers the idea of the World Wars as kind of a myth. He considers most of them to be seperate wars. Simply because the Axis said they were allied with each other doesn't really mean anything. There was never any meaningful cooperation between any of the Axis powers.

Yes there was

Mainly in fighting Russia

And Greece

Germany actually sent a couple of Tigers to Japan

China

they got sunk though

The middle east

It was a world war.

well Italy was with Germany, but Italy never was ablee to do much due to poor location I believe

that and poor leadership

Nope

Poor tactics

Japan was fighting on russia's rear end

so yeah they were all together

Italy could have taken Greece, but their commanders were more concerned with making the others look stupid rather then trying to take Greece

Mussolini was just a horrendous leader

So were his generals.

yeah lol

Bourbon, of course there was cooperation in fighting Russia.

I believe the phrase was, "winning a game of chess, against a man who only knew how to play checkers

at least until Kesselring got involved

Everyone was fighting Russia. You didn't have to be Axis to be fighting Russia.

Finland proved that.

Fun Fact: Kesselring was the guy whos name would be used in the infamous Kessel Run from Star Wars

And fighting greece, China, and Canada.

What meaningful cooperation was there in those cases, Bourbon?

Germany fighting with Italians in Greece and the Japanese in China.

Hitler was a good leader in terms of charisma and lifting his people out of the depression, I am NOT saying he was a good person, but his people did technically elect him, so he did something to win them over. As a general, Hitler was an absolute buffoon

not completely

Like.... what? Which offensives did they plan together?

for example, his generals wanted to continue grinding on Moscow

He made some calls that a 12 year old could've done better

Germany fighting with Italians in Greece and the Japanese in China.

Which grand strategy did they formulate together?

Canada was just constantly weeding out their spys.

and he said no sit still and starve

Mhm

Just because they weren't shooting at each other doesn't mean they were allies. It just means they weren't enemies.

no, that was Stalingrad, which was an entirely different can of beans
