As she says in another clip, prior to the German invasion Russia and the USSR itself were not really a united or coherent "nation". After the invasion and occupation they were much more united and ready for a war. Nobody really wanted to start that "next" war and hence we got the Cold War.

She had a good point about Britain being a maritime power rather than a Continental power. In many of Continental wars including the Napoleonic Wars her role in the land battles was secondary to her maritime roles ,even in the Peninsular wars she had the somewhat ineffectual Spanish allies both regular army and Guerrilla forces tying down many French troops and winning some battles. In the seven years wars her main contribution was monetary to the hard pressed Prussia but she reaped huge rewards in India and America by virtue of her naval strength. The First world War changed all that.

Also (more so in ww2), Germany had less resources and poor mismanagement of the stuff they had (which was almost nothing). Even if Germany won ww2, Germany would’ve run fry on supplies because their policies were isolating comparatively to the countries they were fighting.

Literally every educated European, at least outside the UK, knows this. What's really interesting is that it was African colonialism that largely caused WW1. The European rush to divide the continent led to military treaties to assure peace between the competing nations. These treaties were then instrumental in drawing every country into war once some of them started fighting in Europe. So in a way everything from African colonisation to the end of the cold war is just one continuous link of events in European history. WW1 was the first time the white man's hubris really bit him in the ass, leading to the systematic death of his own kind; but the seeds were laid 30 years earlier, and the devastation only ended 75 years later.

In 1939, Poland, of course, was JOINTLY invaded by Germans from the west and Soviets from the east. The family members who were in western Poland were mostly wiped out by the Nazis, with only a few surviving. The family members who were in eastern Poland were deported to Soviet forced-labor camps in Russia. Plenty of hardships, but most of them survived.

It is the only war memorial to the Red Army to be erected in any country not either a present or former Soviet bloc/Russian aligned country.

Russia did outproduce Germany but it is important to note that they had Land Lease which was incredibly useful, especially because it allowed them to focus on weapons; and Germans were bombed, and attacked on all sides; while having inefficient economy themselves. Bottom line is that Ukraine showed just how bad Russia is, and how bad it's manufacture process is; the corruption, the failure , the great deal of waste, is all visible and in spotlight. That said, Ukraine was a corrupt nation before hand, was hardly a nation before hand, primarily due to what Soviet's have done to it. It is also far smaller nation in terms of people, with very weak manufacturing base. Therefore it is possible that Russia may pull this off, as Russians never cared about their own losses. Their people die? OK, So? They sure don't care. SO while it's possible that Russia may win the war of attrition they will loose the war, and will not get back their Empire, that much is certain.

They war was started to prevent Germany from destroying Bolshevism

The interviewer was missing the inherent full on genocidal nature of Nazism vs Soviet Communism. Yes stalinism mirrored many aspects of the Nazi regime but it didn't have the grand visions and well thought out doctrine of racialized scientific antisemitism, racialized socities, and genocidal imperialism like with Nazism. Keep in mind the USSR wasn't just Stalin. The post-Stalin Soviet leaders, while corrupt and dictatorial, were not totalitarian like Stalin as communism, unlike Nazism, is not inherently totalitarian and genocidal. Communism can be genocidal ie Pol Pot (although many of Pol Pot's racial ideas went well beyond Communism) but it doesn't have the same automatic disposition towards racial conquest and genocide like Nazism. This is why I'm always a little cautious when I see Communism and Nazism brought up in the same breath and especially so when discussing WWII. I find Eastern Europeans given their harsh experiences with Communism understandably have a difficult time grasping this and often lend themselves to clumsy historical equivocations between Nazism and Communism. It's also absurd to imagine defeating Hitler and Stalin at the same time when Hitler had been primary enemy of the allies for years by that point and had now made himself an enemy of a mighty country like the USSR. What attack the enemy of your enemy as opposed to teaming up with them? That's ridiculous. They didn't even have the means for that. Besides Nazism's longterm plans were so horrific they went well beyond any evil dictator like Stalin.

The Great War was so influential to today's geopolitics and economic powerhouses. The gunshot that killed Franz Ferdinand began a chain reaction that we still see today.

Beside the usual exaggerations about the German concentration camps, I think that the nazis would have been reformed if peace would have endured. The Swedish Social Democratic Party was basically a copy of NSDAP at the time, eugenics included and it reformed itself for good and bad during the decades. Eugenics was the trend in many European countries at that time.

We are still paying the price for WW1 today.

Its more complicated than that, you consider how the world has transcended into the chaos we live in today, The Reich committed atrocities as many governments did but the German people under the Reich especially pre WW2 lived lives of high morality and plentifulness, Versailles was the problem as Germany was eviscerated and humiliated

@DominionSorcerer

They didn't really live lives of high morality and that plentifulness was reliant on first the possessions of Jewish people and later on foreign conquests. Versailles, for the record, wasn't even that harsh. The idea that it was is Nazi propaganda.

Did he? Those claiming so probably were in one way or another. They made up the clean whermacht myth to cope with this. And also cause they kinda solidified this myth at Nuremberg when they deemed the waffen SS a “criminal organization” Even though the Whermacht did more crimes and around the same or more percent adjusted for size. So they leaned into it despite being die hard NS themselves. It should be interesting to see how this is all viewed once the political propaganda is gone.

Fascism did survive till 1970 in Spain but it was more like Italian fascism without the overtly racial component. Yes, i do believe nazism would have crumbled. Likely by first weakening and watering it down first.

It's kind of a silly question, my respect to her for her patience. "What if" questions are typically implausible, and this one is not unique in that respect. The survival of Nazism would have meant the total destruction of the Soviet Union, the surrender or annihilation of the English. Much of Europe would have been exterminated, too...including the Spanish and Italians. Ten's of millions more would have died. Entire nations would have been...liquidated. Nazi Germany was *_doomed to fail_* because it was a totalitarian dictatorship led by a genocidal maniac. Believe it or not, at any given time, there are more people who *_love_* than *_hate._* This fact dooms the "them-or-us" ideas - like Nazism - to failure. The Soviet Union was doomed to failure because it was a totalitarian dictatorship led by homicidal and suicidal maniacs. Believe it or not, at any given time, there are more people who respect *_reason_* than those who respect *_irrationality._* This fact dooms the "do-gooder" Socialists from convincing enough young people to accept their logical absurdities. It prevents a lot of really, really dumb things from happening.

the Germans requested a peace treaty over 15 x with the British (and other European powers), before the war, during the war, when they were winning the war and when they were losing the war, their objective was never to destroy England. also Spain and Italy were German allies. not sure where you are getting your perceptive from?

I think she is pointing to Fishers "Baltic Strategy" to cut off the Germans from Swedish Iron Ore. Very little of this was ever implemented, but the few submarines that were sent in the Baltic were very successful. Despite Churchill's criticism of it in retrospect post WW1, his whole Norway campaign in 1940 looks like a poorly executed similar approach.

​@@HegemonicMarxismNubs making assumptions on what it was because of he way it ended. Now that may seem odd to discredit but we have to look into conditions at hand. The world war started because the Western powers wanted a weak Germany. Nobody can deny that. Germany had to attack the Soviets or get attacked later. Obviously there can't be partnership between two powers that could greatly benefit from smoking 1 another. It's also claimed that while small German forces had been in east the Soviets forces in its western lands were far bigger. Don't remember quantities tbh. They had also allegedly lost so much in initial phase of ww2 because their armies were not set up in defence posture but in offence posture. Either way war was inevitable. It's also said that the others didn't want to accept Jews. Perhaps concentration camps could've been avoided after all. Anyways no point in judging outcome. The outcome of the winner was obviously supposed to be much better. Problem of fascists was they got ahead of themselves. Not too much suprise since nobody really wanted to fight as much an eventually their luck ran out. The fascists could've put a good effort into a avoiding war Vs USA at least. Nub mistake tbh.
