Germany wouldn't try to attack America on home field, at first. Opposing forces would've crippled them or at least spit in their eye, they would've waited a few years.

WWII wouldn't have happened the way we know it today, but after Germany licked it's wounds, it would start assaults on the Americas and Canada.

After a few years of tug and pull, America would fall due to a lack of resources, and Germany and it's allies would become the omni government of the world.

Hitler quite possible would've come into power, because revenge for the loss of WWI was only a secondary goal.

One domino falls after another and Jews and Blacks are wiped off and the world becomes a drastically changed, stable, yet un-diversified place.

Best answer so far. The Germans would not have had a depression in the 20's, Hitler would have stayed unknown.
But there's no telling what the Central Powers would have done to the Triple Entente. Perhaps it would be the reverse outcome.
WWII probably would have happened still, but much differently, and possibly on a smaller scale.

Depends if the Germans would be so strict on the Treaty of Versailles equivalent. You could say that they wouldn't be such assholes since there was no revanchism like France had because of the humiliation of the Franco-Prussian war.

Maybe France would have been the one to have a Fascist expansionist government to take power and try to invade Germany?

Germany couldn't win WW1. After being exhausted from beating all of their European neighbors, the best they could have hoped for was a truce with us as our trade routes became threatened.

Tying =/= Winning

If Germany had won WW1, Britain and/or France would probably have been forced to sign some humiliating treaty similar to Versailles. That could have meant that the events whcih led to WW2 occured, only this time in Britain and/or France

But Hitler would probably still be alive. And have children too.

I'd say Germany would probably become the mightiest military power in the world if they won, they'd probably be more powerful than the US today, or at least competing equally. But there's no telling what would happen in the Cold War..IF, there was a Cold War.

Actually he wouldn't have had children because he only had one testicle...

He was the one-nut wonder! No wonder he wanted to take over the world.

However, thinking about it a bit more, it depends when Germany won it. For instance if they had won it near the start the losing sides would have got away with only minor territorial concessions - Britain would probably still be the largest power in the world and Russia would remain an autocratic empire

im sure the world would be much better

Well Hitler wouldn't hate the Jews if Germany had won and the country would of not been crippled and full of civil unrest which allowed him to take power.

So if Germany had won, the Holocaust would of never happened and maybe the The second world war would not of happened which means no nuclear weapons and no cold war?

What we really should talk about is how you came to the conclusion that 'the world' would be a better place.

What would have happened had Germany really won? Discuss it here.

Germany would've probably gotten more offshore colonies, but with the added territories of the treaty with the Russians it would've become more and more like Austria-Hungary, which had to introduced Hungarian monarchs in order to prevent being overthrown.

France would've also lost alot of its territory possibly, Italy as well.

Its hard to tell since it didn't happen.

Hitler fought in WWI. It was just before he was in politics.

This is true hence how he lost on of his balls but lets not linger on hitler he was just a soldier in WW1 and we're not talking about WW2. If Germany had won the nazi's wouldn't have existed, Germans turned to the nazi's because they promised a job and food. And if not for the genocide of the jews Isreal would probably not exist (not like I'm saying that was a good thing..) And as for the european empires they would have all collapsed from within over time but it would be a very different world for sure.

Well firstly WW2 wouldn't have happened.

And Germany would have a powerful influence over the world, much like Russia these days. They would also be feared amongst the lesser people, such as the Balkan countries.

Most of us would be dead.

Unless you have blonde hair and blue eyes.

But really, germany wanted nothing from europe from the war. They were just in it to help serbia. so if anything britiain and france would be safe, just they lost the war for what ever they were preventing germany (and the triple alliance) from achieveing (which wasent qorld domination).

So if anything probably nothing would change

Well Germany was actually protecting Austria Hungary, who attacked Serbia. Russia attacked Austria so basically German was helping Austria.
France probably wouln't be safe because Germany and France fought a LOT before WWI and WWI would just be the deal breaker. France territory would probably go to the Germans.
Britain would probably start a war after that with Germany because their U-Boats would cause their navy to rival Britains, and Britain likes being the head hancho of the sea.
Meanwhile Russia probably would have got their asses kicked (if Germany had won) and would be in revolution again which probably would just help communism start up.
Countries like Belgium, Denmark (i think) and switzerland would probably be absorbed in either Germany or Austria.

Before the war Germany had things going down. They had a great economy with a passable army(wasn't the best) and things like workers comp and such, so If they DID win the war then they would be strong still, and not go through civil dispute like they did once they lost. And without that dispute, people like Hitler ranting about Jews being the source of faliure and such would never had happened. Hell, he'd probably be locked up. Ha.

Who bumped this?

You weren't alive then so shut up.

WW1 was just a petty dispute between countries showing off at each other. England I suppose would have gotten Germany's economic crisis instead and some other things in the treaty of Versailles and thats about it. The biggest change would be that Hitler wouldn't have likely got to power without the crisis to trigger uprisings, who knows might have gotten an Edward Hitler in England instead.

All in all sure it would have changed the past which is bad of course, but wouldn't have caused much of an issue otherwise its not like it was an important war.

Then again if you go with Red Alert stopping the Nazis gaining power turned out badly for the world.

How so? If Russia turned into the Soviet Union, there would still be two blocks, only the order of things would've been different. Maybe Germany would be leading the capitalist side, or maybe a sort of 'EU', or another emergent superpower.

ITT: No one knows their fucking history

WW2 had Hitler, not WW1

I know lots of people have said this, but seriously way more have made some comment about Nazi's or Hitler.

Actually I think if Germany had won WW1, maybe the world is better off. No Hitler coming to power in Germany, so probably no WW2, and maybe there's not even nuclear weapons since there's no WW2. I kinda doubt that though, since scientists would have realized the potential of nuclear power, both for destruction and energy, eventually.

Nuclear weapons will still be made, sadly. I agree it would of been better. Or if England and France weren't bitches and didn't punished Germany after the war even the US told them not to.

Yes, the loss in WWI for Germany was one of the main reasons for WWII. Hitler wanted payback, in a nutshell. He thought the reparations they had to pay was unfair (they had to basically pay for WWI). He thought the humiliation was unfair. Germany was given a limitation on their military size and couldn't place troops in certain places as a result of the Treaty of Paris. So Germany was pretty pissed. WWII might not have even of happened had the Germans one the first world war.

Same question, what if the Babylonians had used the technology that they had 6,000 years ago to better effect? I don't think Alexander would have been so great.

I would be in happy ol' Hong Kong and since Britain is now german, it would be a German Colony :D

Well, it would have probably stopped World War II, so then Hitler would not have risen to power. Then again, if Germany was in a fine state afterwards, Hitler would get more powerful. Of course, one of the reasons he got so powerful was that he feeded off the Germans' anger of being defeated in the first world war, so maybe he would not come into power at all? I do think it would probably be pretty bad, but not as bad if they won the second world war.
