Yeah the Axis did astoundingly well
Well, you say that
I mean Germany occupied most of Europe
If Italy hadn't invaded the fucking greeks in May 41
It may have gone a lot differently
the Italians delayed barbarossa for 2-3 months, the best months of the year
The Germans were ready to go in late april
If Italy didn't exist the Germans would have won
im pretty sure had the US stayed out and Italy had more competent military leadership it would've been much more possible
@Mairon Italy is a military blight
The old Crete meme.
Sad!
Problem was that Italy was simply not equipped or ready for a major European war
I thought you were based.
Imagine if the Germans conquered the USSR the Allied forces wouldn't be able to touch the Axis
italy had prepared for trench warfare lmao
and it did not work out well
@εïз irma εïз the problem wasn't that they invaded greece
It was that they asked the Germans for help
I am fully aware of the meme.
Minutiae. Completely irrelevant.
I'm fapping to the idea of an Axis Europe rn
Idk
No fapping in the server
An extra 2 months of non-winter advance in 1941 would've gotten the Germans a hell of a lot more significant gains
The Germans already had vast logistical and military superiority over the Soviets during the opening months of Barbarossa.
Particularly in the south
It was just one of several winters.
Oh yeah i know
I'm not disputing that
No serious historian entertains this line of thought.
Im saying the earlier they started the better
It's something armchair historians jerk off over.
I'm saying Axis is number 1
Im not saying that it was a huge logistical blow
Just that it delayed the implementation of the plan
Sad all countries are either liberal democracies or in africa
@Mairon
>implying one doesn't lead to the other
We should consider immediate invasion and displacement of Romanians.
This is true
