With a PoD after the Nazi invasion of Poland, have the Wehrmacht successfully invade and even defeat the USSR, but have the Axis Powers eventually be defeated, before 1950 and without any atomic bombs.

What would such a world look like? Would Russia and Eastern Europe have been governed democratically? Could this defeated Germany escape an alt-Morgenthau Plan? How would Communism be viewed across the world, had it collapsed after the german invasion? What would the borders of Europe look like, what would societies and politics of the post war world be like, with the two great totalitarian regimes of the 20th century being completely destroyed? Might we see earlier “end of history” style remarks by academics and intellectuals? Would populism rise in such a world? Could social democrats still implement Keynesian policies, would here be the internationalist spirit that the world was founded on?
