1. 0:00What if Germany won World War II? Well,
2. 0:02to answer the what, we got to answer the
3. 0:05how. Hitler made notoriously three
4. 0:08massive blunders: attacking the Soviets
5. 0:10in the winter, letting Britain breathe
6. 0:12after Dunkirk, and declaring war on the
7. 0:14US for literally no reason. So, let's
8. 0:17flip that. Germany invades the USSR in
9. 0:19the summer, finishes them off, blitzes
10. 0:21Britain before they regroup, and makes
11. 0:24peace with the US. It's wild, but
12. 0:26honestly, doable. Ireland was neutral,
13. 0:30so the Nazis could have hopped right
14. 0:31into mainland Britain if they kept the
15. 0:33pace and didn't have to worry about the
16. 0:34Irish. And don't forget, early in the
17. 0:36war, much of the US public was weirdly
18. 0:39pro-German. If the Nazis hadn't opened
19. 0:42the gas chambers, maybe the sympathy
20. 0:44would have lasted. Okay, so now the
21. 0:46Reich grows from this to this. What now?
22. 0:50Well, instead of fantasizing, let's look
23. 0:52at the past massive empires. Remember
24. 0:55the Roman Empire? Too big to hold. Too
25. 0:58many people forced under one flag. You
26. 1:00can't slap an eagle on everyone's
27. 1:01passport and expect harmony. So,
28. 1:04best-case scenario, the German Empire
29. 1:06splits in half. An Eastern Reich, a
30. 1:09Western Reich. One thrives, one will
31. 1:11eventually rot. Same old imperial cycle.
32. 1:14Eventually, the rotten Reich falls
33. 1:16apart. Groups come together to set up
34. 1:18countries again, and they start to
35. 1:20harass the other Reich till that one too
36. 1:22loses its Lebensraum. And in the end,
37. 1:25Germany is right back where it started.
38. 1:27Oh, well, time for World War III.
