Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Briefly!? The Germans would have installed puppet Nazi regimes in all of the countries they occupied!. These would have rounded up Jews, Gypsies, blacks and anyone else they considered untermenschen for use as slave labour and eventual extermination!. In Eastern Europe and Western Russia the Germans would have planted colonial Aryan populations while attempting to reduce the native Slav populations to slave status!. They would have launched vicious reprisal programmes to crush any resistance; for an idea of their probable ferocity, consider that during WWII Belarus lost 25% of its population under Nazi occupation!. These regions would have been turned into vast factory farms to feed the Aryan overlords!. Western Europe would have been treated relatively leniently as most of the population would have been considered Aryan!. Most industry would probably have been retained, although arms factories probably would have been transferred to the Reich!. Danes, Dutch, etc who were willing to work with the Nazis would have been well rewarded!. Even here, though, the Nazis would not have tolerated any kind of resistance!. Any resistance fighters could expect only torture and execution if they were captured!. The Axis powers would have tried to turn Indonesia, India and the other major Asian countries into slave states!. Their resources would have been systematically plundered!. Essentially, most of the world would eventually have been turned into a vast slave labour camp, with the non-white population being treated as disposable labour units!. It's quite likely that Nazi Germany would eventually have gone to war with the Japanese as they could only justify their alliance during WWII by classifyng them as 'honorary Aryans!.' And they would have had no compunctions about using nuclear weapons to exterminate the Japanese!. It's unlikely the USA could have been conquered but it would only have been able to survive by becoming a garrison state, highly militarised and not much different from a military dictatorship!. They would probably have annexed Canada for their own security!. On the whole, it would have been a pretty grim place!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Germany really couldn't have won the war considering Hitler's aim was to conquer the world!. It would have been difficult to conquer England since it would have required an amphibious invasion and there is no way that Germany could have invaded and held the U!.S!. & Canada!. The only possible way that they could have won the war was to develop the Atomic Bomb but they had abandoned that project and were never really that close!.Www@QuestionHome@Com There would be no Jewish State of Israel!. There would be no gypsies, British Aristocracy other than those related to the then Duke of York and Mrs Simpson!. There would be no living Jews in Europe or European Asia!. The intellectuals in the UK would either have been gassed or worked to death!. We'd be driving , those that could afford to, on the right side of the road!. The European Currency would be the Reichsmark!. There would be no Bank of England, only the Deutchesbank would be able to control currency and interest rates!. We'd speak German as a first language!. Christianity would be an underground religion and the State Religion would be the worship of Nordic and Aryan gods!. Ownership of land would be forfeit and all valuable land would be owned by the German State!. America would be isolated and afraid of German long range missiles fitted with nuclear warheads!. No Amrican or Russian would have been in space because the German scientists would not have been made to work for them to promote their space programmes!. Russia in fact, would not exist!. German Leibensraum or Living Room would dictate that the Polish and Russian untermenchen would have been gassed!. The whole of Europe would be like the Third World, except those that collaborate with the Germans!. The cult of Hitler Worship, which would exceed any other cult of worshipping an individual would ensure that Nazi policies continued for the Thousand Year Reich!. As your granddad said, the world would be a very different and a very dark place!. Imagine the effect of the Roman's leaving Europe and the Dark Ages that followed, now multiply that by 1,000 times!. Nazi policy was evil!. The state would control every aspect of your life, if you had been born and even that is very doubtful!. Won't bore you any more!.Www@QuestionHome@Com A number of possibilities may have happened!. But let us assume what would happened if Germany could win World War II!. The New York bomber would have been built, and New York would have been the site of a atomic bomb attack!. In Short, a atomic war would have drawn it to a close!. Hitler would have enjoyed a very large empire for awhile assuming the U!.S!. dident drop its atomic bombs on Germany anyways!. The War likely would have ended with Germany controlling his Lebensraum space including the breadbasket of Russia, most of Europe, and N!. Africa!. Japan would likely control Manchuria and most of the Asian islands!. Now, I dont believe Hitler would be able to retain that empire!. Even during the war he was under scrutiny by his command and likely Hitler would have eventually been assassinated or blame may be shifted to his shoulders for the costly war!. EIther way, his popularity would have fell from under him!. The German empire would be overextended like Rome was at its height, and the borders would recede!. Germany was incapable of launching an invasion out of Europe and Africa, so an attack on N!.America was out of the question in terms of troops!. California and Alaska may have been a battleground with the Japanese!. I know its fiction, but a Sci-Fi series called Sliders experimented with these realities!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Well, Britain would surely be part of Germany along with the rest of Europe and Russia!. Don't forget Japan!. Japan was a formidable enemy, small as their country is geographically!. I think Japan would have taken the U!.S!. and China, which would be really scary!. There'd be a lot of horrors done on U!.S!. citizens by Japanese soldiers just like they did in China when Japan invaded China!. Then I suppose there would be an even bigger war of the Japanese Empire versus the European Empire of Hitler starting in Asia!. And I suppose a few surviving Jews would be scattered amongst every country except Hitler's European Empire!. It's all very ugly!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Hitler would have eventually died or been assasinated and the German empire would gradually disintegrate, as did the Greek empire,Roman empire, and British empire!.Not all Germans supported the nazi ideal so it would be inaccurate to think that all German soldiers living in Britain as part of the occupying forces would be evil thugs, anymore than our soldiers were when Britain occupied a large part of the world!.Still, no one wants their country over run by occupying forces but the Brits would have just had to grin and bear it as other nations have had to do under British rule,lots of young Brits would have been in the resistance, hey wouldn't this imaginary "what if" scenario make a good film/book!?Www@QuestionHome@Com We wouldn't be seeing so many things made in China these days, for one thing!. We might be a more advanced civilization but repressed or we might lag technologically to where we're at today and still be repressed!. There's no doubt that a Nazi Germany wouldn't have visited Saudi Arabia and kissed their!.!.!. Not supporting the Nazi, but that's a possibility of what life might be like!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Several authors have written novels speculating that exact point: what if Germany had defeated the Soviets in the Summer of 41, as they had planned, and then sued for peace with England!? Try "SS-GB" by Len Deighton, and "Fatherland" by Robert Harris!. They made a TV movie based on the latter!.Www@QuestionHome@Com facism would've been ousted already in this idealogically developing world but the years that would've been the hell that your grandad envisaged would've been the fascist years and i reckon they'd have run until the about the 1990's!. but rememebr we are aryan too and hitler had a soft spot for britain!. Hitler might've considered us to be 'chosen ones' just like his people - collbaorators wouldn't've had it bad at all but the resistance fighters and those who would not bow down would've had the similar treatment to the Jews a major difference would be the state of Isreal would never have been created - Palestine might still exist and the area would not be as destabilised as it is now!. and hitler would've reinforced British rule in India rather than given them independence in 1948 he would never have pulled out of india with the opportunity to subjugate so many non-aryan people - so India might've only gained independence in recent years not 60 years ago and the hell your grandad taked of in england would've been nothing compared to what the indians and other non-aryan members of what was once the british commonwealth would've been subjected to!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Hitler never could have invaded Britain successfully and certainly not the US so no we wouldn't be "speaking german"!. The question is what would we do in the brief period we had the bomb and Germany didn't (say in 1946-1948)!. Would we start another war with Germany and bomb them into submission!? Www@QuestionHome@Com Wir müssen alles Deutsch gesprechen!. also we'd all be all be indoctrinated into believing bigotry has its place in society and that all the "inferior" (i!.e, not like us) races and ethnicities should be enslaved for our purposes and then killed off!. Please note I'm speaking of the Nazional Socialistisch Deutsch Arbeiter Partei (Nazis) and not intending to offend the average modern German citizen!. And please don't make fun of my spelling!. It's been a long time since I got to practice any German!. : )Www@QuestionHome@Com Well, Jews would no longer exist, at least in Europe!. Russia and Europe would be under German control, Africa would probably be under Italian control, and Asia would be under Japanese control!. I don't think the USA would have been conquered, bu it would have been forced into an unhappy peace!.Www@QuestionHome@Com This play would be a hell hole, our hole society would be another German colony , our money would be useless, and we'd be wearing German clothes, food and so on, be thankful for the things you have, and can change , because one day they might not be there!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Probably not much!!!!! Things will still be the same today, it hasnt changed germany as they lost the war, anyway, brits and germans are good mates now so thats all that matters!Www@QuestionHome@Com german troops would be too war stretch out to control all there land they gained even with there allies help and so Germanies land would become smaller over time due to attacks by European countries !.Www@QuestionHome@Com It's called alternate history!.
