How would it have been different if Germany won WWI?

Question

Answer 1

Wow, finally an interesting question!

Obviously there would have been no World War II as we know it, no Naziism (because nothing for the party to react against), no Holocaust... Hitler might have stayed in the German Army and gotten killed in a future battle in Alternate 1919 as Germany rolled over the rest of France and perhaps down into Spain (where there would be some tough mountain fighting in the Pyrennes, but the Spanish haven't been much for war since 1600 or so -- but those Basques and Catalans would give the krauts bloody hell!)...

The British would have treated behind the English Channel, while attempting to retain control over their overseas colonies, but with the growth of the Imperial German Navy, would have to let go of them one by one. India would be the last to go, in 1947...

The US would have retreated into abject isolationism (as happened after a victorious WWI -- it would have been much more intense and long lasting had we lost!). No League of Nations...

Japan, an Ally during WWI, would have continued their encroachment into China (where the Germany had forged an agreement with the government of Sun Yat-Sen) and World War II would have happened after all as Germany defended her East Asian ally.

Russia, out of the war since 1917, would have used the 1920's to build its military might to fight the Germans who continued to threaten her borders through the formerly British and French Middle East...

I think World War II would have started in the early 1930s as Imperial Japan invaded China and Germany honored her treaty obligations to defend China. At this, the Soviet Union would have struck through the Caucasus into former British Iran and Iraq, with the promise of freedom to the indigenous peoples.

If I tell anymore no one will want to read my novel...

Answer 2

valuable, if Germany had gained WWI there could be no could desire to locate a scapegoat like the jews for loss of the conflict. yet on a similar time as you have a solid factor, i'm not specific the upward thrust of Hitler and holocaust could've been prevented. remember that the main ingredient which propelled the nazis to capability grew to become into the melancholy. i think that despite the fact that if the German monarchy grew to become into extremely bolstered via victory, the melancholy could've extra approximately a progressive difficulty and Hitler could desire to've capitalized on that to upward thrust to capability. this could've been probably if the monarchy fell via 1931-33 and there grew to become right into a solid risk for somebody to rally the rightist forces to oppose the "bolsheviks." there is not any doubt hatred of jews grew to become into generic in Germany so the holocaust could desire to truly have accompanied from a victory of the a ways suitable.

Answer 3

You can read about it in a novel, "When William Came," by Hector Hugh (H.H.) Monroe ("Saki"), 1913. The William refers to Kaiser Wilhelm II, and it imagines defeat of Britain by Germany in the coming war.

Answer 4

Very very VERY different. Holocaust wouldve probably been kept secret yet the Russian concentration camps "Gulags" would have been much publicised. Also German would be the worlds national language. And the USA wouldn't exist.

Answer 5

Another good book would be "The Children's War"
