Would you like to read a great novel about that?
"Plot Summary:
It's America in 1962. Slavery is legal once again. The few Jews who still survive hide under assumed names. In San Francisco, the I Ching is as common as the Yellow Pages. All because some 20 years earlier the United States lost a war--and is now occupied jointly by Nazi Germany and Japan.
This harrowing, Hugo Award-winning novel is the work that established Philip K. **** as an innovator in science fiction while breaking the barrier between science fiction and the serious novel of ideas. In it **** offers a haunting vision of history as a nightmare from which it may just be possible to awake.

Reviews
"There's no point in beating around the bush: this book is a masterpiece. Stylistically what makes it especially good is its restraint; it has none of the loony excess of late-period ****, but all the inventiveness and vision of his best work is here, carefully modulated and controlled. Nothing in the novel is superfluous, everything contributes to theme and form -- because this book is very much more than a straightforward SF narrative. It is a meditation on the nature of history, a quasi-philosophical work cast in fictional form, as are several of ****'s masterpieces from his great Decade (1962-72, or thereabouts)."

No. until now 1940, the Allies, Russia and Japan have been all working against Germany of their own techniques. The allies had already declared war. Russia became into shifting 1000's of hundreds of troops from Asia to Europe each month commencing up in 1938. Japan began sending spies to each usa in Europe to visual demonstrate unit the war approximately 1939 and had a minimum of dozens in each usa continuously sending returned records on Germany's progression. (all of us understand this via fact we had broken Japan's diplomatic codes some years before and have been translating each little thing they despatched returned to Tokyo).

There would be no NATO or Warsaw Pact or WTO. Only Axis and Allies, most of Europe would either be part of Axis countries or in their sphere of influence. Japan would've moved on conquering China and Pacific islands. The technology would be much advanced because. Well. Germany... People would not be educated correctly. And Adolf Hitlers dream of a better Europe is finally achieved.

Many authors (especially sci-fi authors) have written books using this premise. For an example, read Philip K. ****'s "The Man in the High Castle" (and remember: if Germany won WW2, Japan would have also won, so though the alternate world would be bleak, it wouldn't be predictably so.)

The World would have a halocaust for a while. Maybe until the 1960'S then a World War 3 would break out...

This is the best option for a reverse phone number lookup https://tr.im/721a7
Receiving a one or two hang up calls each month is probably nothing to worry about, but when those calls increase in frequency and if it happens in the middle of the night then you must do something to stop it, before it starts affecting your life. With the help of this services you can take away the one advantage these people have - their anonymity.

If Germany won WW2 and Hitler lived, the world would be a pretty happy place. Happy for the white people that lived. All people of color would be either eliminated or be slaves. Im favoring the elimination outcome. Hitler's son or grandson would probly be in power.
The question is, what wars would arise if we lived in a world with people with identical race and ethnicities.

Well, we know life would be different. What we can't know is how much. It's easy to imagine everyone having to speak German, but that's probably just not true. Your question, if properly considered, could lead to millions of different scenarios. For instance, how would the Japanese/German alliance play out? Would the world pause, rebuild and eventually revolt against Hitler or his successors? Just a few things to consider...

I can't see that happening. But if it did happen we could expect genocides that would wipe the vast majority of the world and we would be left with a handful of people who would soon be fighting against each other in the name of an even stupider ideology.

Its impossible for the Germans to have won in any case. The vast materiel power of the Allies made it that way. There would've been no way for the Axis to win although they could've bought time with strategic victories
