Soviet bodies 🤝 American industry 🤝 British intelligence.

The US had a significant geographical advantage. Can't strike at their factories from across an ocean.

British had their former empire to draw upon a multitude of demographics and a wide array of contacts to achieve intelligence superiority.

The Soviets had a huge population to draw upon and throw into the meat grinder. More than double of Germany.

I do wonder what would have happened if Germany hadn't of gone after the Soviets, but does feel like that war was inevitable.

It would have been a longer war but Germany would have still lost. Allied logistics, airpower, and manufacturing were just stronger while Germany struggled with getting raw materials in general, which was part of why they invaded the USSR. Before invading, Germany and the USSR had an agreement where the soviets supplied oil and food for the german military, and that and other provisions were part of the reason why Stalin thought they didn't have to worry about an invasion

The nazis would have won the war against wester Europe, the USA would have signed an alliance with them, and joined them in the inevitable war against Russia.

I am not joking, this is what History tells us would have happened.

Even when we had just won the war with the help of Soviets, Churchill wanted nothing more than to go to war again, against the soviets.

Let us be glad Hitler and Stalin were fools and fought each other.

Let us be glad France had Charles De Gaulle to stop the American gluttony.

And let History not repeat itself, with this time the USA as the "4th Reich".

Not much British intelligence. Also, American bodies and navy in the east. Europe was only half the war.

America and Germany were definitely the biggest players in ww2.
