And by the fact that under no circumstances will they be able to operate within the world economy in the way that West Germany did post war. You won't see American capital flowing into such a state after what they would have done. By this point, the US and everyone else surviving will expect to have to fight a war with them at some point and as such, shall treat them as a future adversary. Considerably moreso than the USSR OTL for that matter.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. The assumption that Nazi Germany would magically collapse if it wins WWII doesn‘t hold nearly as much water as people claim. Economic policy can change, and exploitation of newly available natural resources would stabilize the situation. There is no valid reason to believe collapse of the state would be imminent. Even if the economy went down the gutter, that does not mean the end of the regime, nor does it preclude the possibility of recovery.
Threads? This is my first thread that mentions Nazis. This isn't a Wehraboo. I only asked if Nazi Germany could become economically successfull ? That doesn't mean that i endorse their racial policy in any way
I disagree. Guerrillas require a support base, that generally being the population. That becomes a problem when vast swathes of land are systematically depopulated in preparation for colonization. Where do the partisans get their food then? How do they stay supplied? Even IOTL obtaining provisions was a serious concern for partisans, and theft was often a necessity to avoid starvation. They'd wither in the long run and occupation will become easier.
Yeah they would get a big oil boom after they conquer Caucuses, Mesopotamia and persian gulf
The Germans would not be able to reach Mesopotamia and the Persian Gulf, not unless the British roll over and straight up give it to them.
No defeat of Soviets means blank cheque on Middle East and Africa for Nazi they can transport enough troops to conquer those regions. If Soviets are defeated then nothing stops Nazi from diverting to other areas
Except the war to subdue the partisans, and logistical practicalities. Infinite expansion was not exactly the plan.
This ignores the impact of massive depopulation of Eastern Europe that would have made Mao China look like a child play, and then partial depopulation of Germany via moving colonists to the east. Both demand and supply would have suffered disastrous consequences.
Generalplan Ost would most likely be altered along the way to accommodate for economic expediencies. It would hardly be the first time the Nazis compromised their principles for the sake of convenience.
Germany turning all of Europe into puppets is questionable. Let alone the Middle East, Central Asia And Africa. I also don’t buy this idea that Germany would collapse economically in an Axis victory scenario. Economic policies can change and OTL Germany lasted 4 years while engaged in the largest war in history.
