It was the Russians who defeated the Nazis, due to time and numbers (and greater industrial output).
Boy, what a terrible waste of russian lives that was, right? There was never really a russia anyway, except as a german colony, as Catherine The Great demonstrates. Besides, the nazis needed a buffer between their national borders and china as a us ally who was hosting troops and long range weapon systems. They should have accepted the nazis perfectly reasonable territorial demands and backed off all the way into the sea, but..ofc, they couldn't, because the us forced them to fight and provided military assistance in order to prolong the conflict, instead.
For what? So they could end up a gas station with nukes under the western thumb. Meanwhile germany's over there doing just fine. Damn You Great Satan!
