Why Hitler could never have won the war Not only German neo-Nazis, but also more normal, right-wing citizens, even nationalists in other countries, such as Hungary, keep discussing how Hitler could have won the war. The aim of this article is to show the nonsense of these fancies. Alexander the Great, Attila, Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Hitler! Were they awesome or just megalomaniac? They all created huge empires, which then collapsed before or at the latest shortly after their death. So what for? All waged blitz wars that the enemies weren't prepared for, but they couldn't keep the territories. The text is about Hitler and the impossibility of winning World War II. How did it come about that neither the leading German industrialists nor the commanders in the German army could or did not want to see that such a conflict would inevitably end with Germany's defeat? Neither the United States, Britain nor Russia would have accepted an empire with the extension from the Russian border to France and the Atlantic under German leadership. A world war was inevitable in this case. Germany had about 100 million inhabitants in 1939, North America and the rest of Europe about 700 million, the whole world maybe 4 billion. The third world’s economies at that time did almost export nothing but provided goods only for national markets and Germany had only a 5% share of the total production in the industrial world. Coal was still available on German territory, but the much more important oil had to be imported, and precisely from powers against which Hitler wanted to wage war or from areas that were controlled by them. The same applies to almost all raw materials. Unfortunately, Germany has almost no mineral resources and is therefore still absolutely dependent on imports, especially as an industrialized country. At that time, as today, Germany did not only produce for the internal market; The biggest revenue came from export. In order to carry out Hitler’s policy of confrontation, the country excluded herself from her sales markets and set herself up for self-sufficiency and government projects, such as the expansion of the road and railway network and the military industry; The result was that raw materials and resources available in the country got more expensive and led to a lack of funds in the state budget. From 1933 to 1939, Germany had gotten into such a hopeless economic and foreign policy situation that it could only get out of either with an economic crisis or a war. And that was the lineup in World War II: a very capable people let themselves be led around by a donkey. Finally, let's look at a few examples from history. Alexander the Great had conquered his empire in just under a decade and founded many cities. It took less than a few months after his death to decay. The Roman Empire had grown over a thousand years and had slowly incorporated foreign peoples and cultures. In addition, the Romans were quite tolerant towards other religions; they even built temples for the new gods in Rome because they believed: "Si deus nobiscum, quis contra nos!" (If the gods are with us, who is against us!) Napoleon was another bad example. His empire didn't even persist until his death. The Russians, Austrians, Prussians, and English, who then occupied France, were smarter because they didn't want to divide the country among themselves, because they knew that they wouldn't be able to keep it anyway. Hitler was just a megalomaniac idiot and the Germans were just as stupid because they believed him. Back to list!
