I agree. Is simplistic and very improbable,rather absurd.

We said two options (and two resulting timeline). 1-Kerensky regime stay in place. 2-A some type of white conservative regime takes the power.

If Communist had never took the power in Russia,likely in how many nations would be divided the ex Tzarist Empire? Is possible a situation like that in China with many war lords?

And if Hitler had listened them? If had pointed on a strategy of long game,balancing a re-armement,based on technological innovations and new type of weapons ,on which Germans were masters,with a sane economy of export of goods?

Which is the best scenario for axis? A different UK Prime minister (no Churchill) that reaches a some type of peace agreegment with Germany after Dunkerque? A isolazionist USA with a President less able of Roosevelt ?

And if FDR and Churchill were dead natural causes in 30s? A different US President and UK Prime Minister in 1940 change something?

"Fast decolonization is inevitable" is another mantra ? (as "Axis not can win in anyway" or WW-I is inevitable") Without the WW-II (and cold war) i don't see a decolonization until late XX century early XXI century at least.

In this case,why make the war? They were fanatics,of course,but were also all idiots?

I'm a bit confused. In this forum seems to be some beliefs on WW-II. 1-Germany must do the war within 1939,otherwise his economy collapses. 2-Are no way that Germany can win WW-II,whatever he does,whatever strategy apply,Germany can not win,neither in 1940-41 before the America...

What is spanish flu had arriving some years ago,in 1915 circa,hitting the soldiers at front? Influence on the war?

Was spanish flu consequence of the war? In a timeline without WW-I we would have epidemic spanish flu?

What if Italy,otherwise Germany, had not declared war to United States? USA anyway would have broken diplomatic relations with Italy or declared the war for first?

The incredible thing is that the Italians believed to the German's promise to not start a war before 1942 at least! In retrospect they were dupes and muggins!!

In the agreements between Germany and Italy for the "steel pact" of alliance,Germany agrees with Italy to not start a war before 1942-43. What if Hitler,that was a irrational man, had make the mistake to respect this pact with Mussolini,and wait for four years? Meantime,France and UK would be...
