You are cool men...

Denmark only consisted of 2 infantry divisions (in Zealand and Jutland), around 30 naval vessels (including submarines), about 100 aircrafts, and NO operational Tanks, with a total of less than 14,000 men (8000 were drafted during the last 2 months fearing Germany), totally unprepared for war, so no much to blame

***** finland had treaty with nazis.

Zo Mi Not in the Winter War

Leader IM ϟϟ You are speaking about individual things here, while I just tried to point out the greater concepts. As you rightfully said, the main fighting force of Germany was positioned to break through the Ardennes, while they used more immobile forces to bait the Allies into the BeNeLux countries by faking a second attempt of the Schlieffenplan and to secure the Maginot line. That is the plain strategic aspect though. What I was referring to with the math thing: Imagine you have two forces facing each other off. Both consist of 1000 soldiers and each salve that one force fires roughly deals damage equal to 10% of their own strength. (So a force with 1000 soldiers firing for the first time will kill 100 opposing soldiers. - A force with 500 soldiers firing will get rid of 50 opposing soldiers.) In this scenario, given that both forces fire simultaneously and so on, both forces will just eradicate each other. (This is roughly what happened during WW1 and what inspired Guderian when he was developing the Blitzkrieg doctrine. - Just that everyone split up their forces before WW2 and Guderian figured out that this was a bad thing.) Now imagine, if one of the sides decided to split up their forces. So the first battle would be 1000 vs. 500 and then there would be a second one. In this case the force with all its troops concentrated will win decivisely, as when they exchange volleys for the first time, you'll have a 2:1 ratio. The second volley will be at a 2.4:1 ratio. The third volley will be a 3:1 ratio. This way you end up with the big force ramaining at ~800 troops, while the smaller force gets completely decimated. And then you have the second battle with 800 vs. 500 and the same principle applies. And when it comes to Russia: What I referred to was, what has happened before the attack on Stalingrad. Originally Germany had two axis. The northern one and the southern one. Hitler then demanded the southern one to be split up with one half of it rushing towards the Caucasus oil fields and the other half of it trying to take Stalingrad. (His generals advised him to ignore Stalingrad, by the way, but he wanted to humiliate Stalin and what would be better for this purpose than to conquer the city bearing his name?!) Imagine, if Germany would've had twice as much troops attacking Stalingrad or if Hitler would've actually allowed his generals to go for flexible warfare, as they demanded, instead of forcing them to "never retreat". So I'm not really saying anything against what you've said. I just pointed out the mathematical concept of why splitting up forces is bad and that Germany failed in the East, because it split up its forces (as Hitler himself actually demanded it in his complete megalomania and thinking, that he knows more about warfare than his generals), while you pointed at the result (the battle of Stalingrad) of the split. And yeah. The allies in the west were able to bind enough troops to buy an advantage for the Soviets and vice versa.

Leader IM ϟϟ Ye, of course. That again is going into detail though, which I wasn't talking about. I don't deny, that there are a multitude of factors going into this, that can modify the outcome of a battle. (the weather conditions and experience of a troop alone have huge impacts) Also: The Combined Arms doctrine is intrinsic to the Blitzkrieg doctrine. So even if your land force is relatively small, you make up for that with the coordination of Air, Naval and Ground troops with perfectly coordinated artillery and mobile forces aswell.

Iceland was actually invaded by the allies because it was under Nazi occupation

I think the British invaded Iceland to use it for airfields and naval bases for the Battle of the Atlantic. No fighting occurred in the invasion.

Yep, Britain invaded Iceland to prevent it from possibly falling to into German hands and for its strategic position. Its funny because when the troops landed crowds gathered to watch the military arrive. The British army asked the Icelandic Police to hold back the crowd so they can move the equipment though. In other words the Icelandic police helped the British army occupy Iceland. Thats the level of resistance they were facing :D

Bob Der "It wouldn't be to hard." What an ignorant thing to say.

Bob Der No, you're just a moron. Let's see how they 'Conquered,' half of Europe. France = Completely surprised them, didn't fight a single battle. Poland = Invaded by the two strongest military powers on earth from two separate directions. Czechs = Completely outnumbered, abandoned by its allies. Austria = Not conquered at all. Switzerland's entire population has been in the military for at least two years, everyone owns a rifle, the entire country is a giant fucking mountain, it controlled nearly all the banks in Europe, which included Germany's money, it had a highly nationalistic population, it had a cold climate, it was preparing for war when Poland was invaded, having hidden staches of supplies, weapons, etc, all across the country. You're the same kind of dipshit that would think "KEKEK, VIETNAM? LEL AMERICA'LL KICK THEIR ASSES.' Ignorant fucking hill billy.

they seen it was a successful american tactic and had to try it lmao

Im turkish and turkey joined the war because turkey wants to be friend with america

I think they joined the allies because they were scared that the soviets would invade them.

@Alper Tunga They could have just stay neutral.

They are like "well the winner gets something so let's join"

Agreed. Durning the war Kent was actually nicknamed 'Hellfire Corner' as the heaviest German guns could and did lob shells across the channel over there just to be a nuisance. The Channel Isles, which are British Crown dependencies off the French coast actually were occupied for the duration of the war as the UK government thought they weren't strategic enough to defend nor recapture right away when the allies did invade in 1944.

The one lesson I've had to learn like 10 times in studying military history is "No, you THINK you know how demanding amphibious assaults are, but they're harder". Over and over. But I had learned it sufficiently that when people were saying russia would try one against Odessa earlier this year, I took a look at their logistics, command, initiative, etc that we had seen in the first month, and said "not a chance".

You must be really stupid if you think the sea is the reason there invasion attempts were unsuccessful.

Technically they were an Axis power, as allied with 3rd reich. Modern historian keep it distinct, because of political reasons. Although, there is the argument thei joined the wrong side due to USSR, and not because they were "willing to". But that doesn't change the fact they fought in cooperation with Germany and almost conquered Leningrad.

It's like my relationships. Me, the girl, and some other guy that I find with her in bed.

It was because of the Winter War, when the Soviet Union invaded Finland; and Finland later accepted some German help after the Nazis invaded the USSR. However, from the very beginning, Finland was against the Nazis because they were democratic, and after signing armistice with the Soviets (the Soviets having taken some Finnish land but having suffered massive casualties due to strong Finnish resistance), they turned against the Nazis, repelling them from Finland and eventually joining the Allies. So technically they were both Axis because they were fighting the Soviets, and Allies because they were fighting the Nazis. You should read about the Winter War and Finland during WWII, its actually really cool.

Araştır bakalım esat 🤨

It's shocking how our education system and media ignore the Eastern front. It was by far the most important theater of the war, just look at the mind blowing casualty rates.

True, but if it hadn't been for the Western Allies, the attack would have come much earlier before the Russians could have developed their army to the point they had, which was still earlier than they had hoped, everyone knew war between Germany and Russia was inevitable, the question was when, every day, gave further strength to the USSR, Britain holding out delayed any attack on the East, so did German intervention in Yugoslavia and Greece which put back the offensive by months.

Lewis Carlin It was a team effort, the war couldn't have been won without any of the 3 main allies. But the fighting itself mainly took place in the East.

Sloth from The Goonies Indeed.

Sloth from The Goonies I never thought that it is shown like that in USA (and believed it was just stereotypes and maybe anti-USA propaganda) until I really met some Western people who think that Soviet Union didn't do anything (so how did 27 million of Soviet people die then?). This is really hurtful, considering the fact, that every person from ex-USSR countries has grandparents who fought there and most probably died :( And don't forget that war changed its course after Battle of Stalingrad, which was one of the main USSR victories. I mean, having Allies ofc helped and was important, but it is very far from saying that "America did it all", most important battles happened on USSR land.

if by all you mean europe then yes

Dokta Whawee I’m pretty sure the Finnish helped the Germans so they could retake their lost land but I get what you mean.

Finland only wanted reclaim their lands back and even held back troops from attacking Leningrad. They didnt even allow their SS troops to fight against any other country than Soviets. For not attacking Leningrad was part why they got easier peace terms after war. All other major german allies fell under soviet flag and look how poor those countries are now.

Another total braindead fool responded who dont know history or was born in 80s or later. No need to respond to people like that who dont really know history or had close family there during when it happened. Later there was war against germany. God some people are so ignorant these days they think all is so simple. Since SS battalions were raised from over 40 countries in world i guess this simpleton Cmi above would make them collaborators too? He obviously dont know jack shit about history

Allied as was written to get lands back that was unjustly lost cause noone else would have helped. To call allied people nazis you must be totally simpleminded, my 2 grandfathers both fought on 2 different sides on this war so i think i know some things that you cant never read on internet. Stop beeing such a fool: "Yes, they were allies from 1941-1944. Finland wasn’t, however, part of the original axis. Finns preferred the term “co-belligerent”, because they resigned from Nazi racial politics and regarded the alliance merely as a possibility to reconquer the areas Finland had lost to Soviet Union in Winter War (and possibly to conquer some more too, had the Greater Finland plans come to fruition). Finland finally turned against her ally in the 1944-45 Lapland War, banishing the remaining German troops that burned down northern Finland while retreating." Some people still are such simple people that they believe all bullshit thrown to them, Fins never gave even jews to nazis when other nations allied to him did. Fins didnt fight anyone else except Soviets to take back wrongfully stolen land. And you claim they are nazis? Omg who taught you in school must be uneducated, or maybe its just you.

People think communists had a lot to do with winning over Nazi Germany. But as a matter of fact, they only disturbed. NOT Russians, but the communists. Cause Stalin ignored the warnings and failed to prepare for the invasion. Weakened the Russian Army with the "Great Purge". If there was a responsible government who understood what happened since Sep1. 1939, not ignoring the warnings, and getting ready for the war - The Allied could have won much sooner. (for instance - instead of 3M soldiers at front, Russia had 10M soldiers at front. They manufactured enough weapon for the war. They secured their airplanes. WW2 in Europe could have been over in 1942!). If anything - the communists only disturbed.

+The Stalker It does happen. +TheFrozenGargon The more you look into WWII the more you learn just how much those years changed the world and in how many ways. Without WWII we would not be living int he world today. No UN, no jet engine, radar, no powerful US, Britain and France would likely still be super powers (as they were before WWII) The Soviet Union would probably still exist, China may not be communist, Japan may not have given up their warrior culture, no Atomic Weapons, no computers (The first one was devised to break the German code, ultimately it was the Poles who broke it). The EU would not exist, neither would NATO ect ect. So much changed during or as a direct consequence of WWII, so much, in fact, that without it, the next big war may well have been Between Britain and the US. During the 30's the two were at each other's throats and tension was high. It was only Churchill's personal family connection with Roosevelt (they were distant relatives) that sparked off the 'special relationship' the UK and US share today. Without it we were more likely to be enemies. War Plan Red suggests this.

+TheFrozenGargon educated? Let's see. most of top comments are talking about how to chill when a war is happening. nope.. it's still a plain ol internet.

+TheFrozenGargon I have a little question guys. So, a few weeks back I bought 3 books about world war 2, each containing 400 pages. So, everything seemed normal until I reached the Operation Barbarossa. What stunned me is that it says, that before the invasion the Germans had 7 million troops in total. This stuns me, because I have read several things on the internet, watched at least 10 documentaries about the eastern front and world war 2, and they all say that Germany attacked Russia with 80% of their forces, 3.2 million troops. My book says that the Germans had 7 million troops and used 3.2 million for Russia, and that they *only had 370,000 replacement troops*!! This very much surprised me, as I have heard people saying that Germany had an army of 4 million in total in 1941 and then I read in my book and find out that it says otherwise. Now which one should I trust ? Numerous documentaries I watched, numerous things on the internet I have read or only one book??

ilija stankovic That is actually a really good question, and for once, I am stumped. I would have said they attacked with about 4 million. The raid on Britain had stopped but the war was still fought in North Africa and in late '41 Hitler had to bail out Mussolini.Granted the 'Afrika Corp' under Rommel was small, but honestly I am not sure. If you do find the answer, please let me know. EDIT: Wiki says 3.2m But this IS Wikipedia. So who knows?

During WWII Finland was on a German side and coordinated its actions with Wermacht.

We searched for unburied soldiers to bury them and also we met with Karelian partisan veterans who fought on a Russian side during the war against the Finnish and the German. I know something about this war. Finnish and German were perfect allies during that war.

Kreed of Krieg each single country from both sides had its own interests. It doesn't change the fact that some were on one side and others were on another. Finnish coordinated their actions with the Germans and that's more than enough. Their rhetorics behind that doesn't mean anything.

@shamus h Finland was much more supplied by US, UK, French, Italy, Sweden etc. than Germany during Winter War, in fact one can say that Germany and Finland were actually sort of enemies during that time (see the Molotov-Ribbentrop contract)

sweden wasn't touched at all! we da best! we just stay out of war

Tell that to every mainland European nation except switzerland and sweden.

If every country would have done this then europe would be Germany right now...

And switzerland too

Sure !

Нет, из-за провала операции СССР в Финляндии, историки говорят, что Гитлер понял, что СССР слаб и решил напасть с планом Барбаросса сразу же, пока они не оправились

И фины держали оборону не неся при этом больших потерь из-за линии Маннергейма

yees we are very strong

@@FoXy_4 Не из-за линии Маннергейма, которая состояла из 3,5 бункеров, а из-за долбоебизма Мерецкова. Тимошенко, сменивший этого бездаря, проломил оборону финнов за две недели - он просто разъебал все живое артподготовкой в течении этих двух недель.

@@LONNESYRUPBITCH Yugoslavia doesn’t exist anymore

@@iDeathMaximuMII it does.

Actually, in this video it was green from 1939 to 1941, and then from 1941 to 1945 it was blue. This means that the USSR was on it's own from '39 to '41, but when the Germans attacked it in 1941, it needed help from the Allies, so it has joined them and stopped being on it's own

@@darioisakovic7802 oh that makes sense

@@hordlood Yes, it does

It wasn't on it's own before 1941, it was in the comintern with Mongolia and Tannu Tuva.

@@hordlood USSR didn't formally join anything during that war. And USSR helped to the allies much more than the allies helped to the USSR. Also the first help from the allies arrived just in 1942.

@@TheAilate Nah, Finland had to fight Germans and push them out of Lapland because the soviet peace treaty demanded it. Barely anyone died, but whole northern part of Finland was set on fire. The Germans used scorched earth tactics because they felt we betrayed them. Anyway, I dont think we ever joined either side officially, although you could definitely describe Finland as a co belligerent with Germany.

This comment is repeated 10s of times in the comment section yet it STILL manages to rack up so many likes

They were in the axis then switched sides

HOLY CRAP YOU KNOW HOW MANY RESOURCES AND LAND THERE IS IN LUXEMBOURG

Haha

in 1938 and 1940 the Japanese attacked the USSR, after which they had to re-equip their army with tanks. they really had no reason to step on the rake a third time

Lol

Sparka Even if they were good people, they fought for the wrong purpose.

Sparka Alright, would you rather fight for a side who’s killed millions of Jews based off of an extremely wrong and immoral basis, or a side that fought against that? Even if the Allied side didn’t have as much morals at the time, they still prevented many more from dying. Even if it meant doing what they hated.

Shengsun Li yep

And it was at that moment they realised, they fucked up.

Hitler ruined Germany with his useless decisions, unfortunately those were crucial, if would've left all the war for his generals, you would be speaking german, rofl.

If they would have captured Moscow and Russia capitulated, there's no telling how much longer the war would have gone. At the end of the day, USA was still the first to get nukes, so I think Germany winning still would have been a long shot.

Getting nukes, with some of the brightest German minds, exactly lol. Don't forget the development of the ballistic German rockets, especially after capturing the vast ressources of the Soviet Union.

won is maybe a bit wrong term, because with both Winter and Continuation wars, we were forced to give up lands to Soviets, pay war reparations and drive off remaining Nazi Germany troops from Finland, although been able to hold on to our freedom and independence against much stronger force was definitely a victory for us.

Balnazzardi Absolutely yes

@@mila_idiot rest in peace

My great grandfather died in this war in 1943 as well. He was a Norwegian immigrant in the US and joined the air force. He flew a plane that conducted supply drops, anti-aircraft shot them down. They found his remains in 1976 on a mountain side.

My grandfathers and grandfathers brothers were Soviet soldiers. My great-great-grandmother's brother was a partisan and fought when he was 40 years old. He hit a mine. My grandfather's brother was a tanker and fought in Stalingrad, he received a "medal for courage". My grandfather was a machine gunner at the beginning of the war, and at the end he served in the NKVD in the counterintelligence department. He participated in the liberation of Warsaw, Prague and in the battle for Berlin. The rest of my relatives are dead

​@@lukekrause5005 so sorry to hear that RIP

Finland was Axis

no it wasn't

It was Axis. Cut your bullshit. I understand their position of choosing lesser evil for themselves, but they were nazis, and sided with them

Yes Finland was Axis, but not nazi or fascist.

They had divisions with nazi symbolics, they had nazi parties, they had nazi help, nazi leaders in politics, SS divisions, they imprisined any anti-fascists. How is that not nazi?

@@ToadComrades finally someone that is smart

Не Петербург, а Ленинград!

It was due to the construction of UN, which stated the states which haven't declared war on Germany, would not be included in the UN. So a series of declarations took place. Turkey, Saudi Arabia.

This was what Turkey needed. Because the founder Mustafa Kemal Ataturk was just passed away and Turkey was not able to fight with another countries. Because there were already other countries' agents in Turkey who were trying to end the country from the inside. Turkey did a smart choice and stayed out of war. Also, Turkey got into war at the end because it was one of the very first step for becoming a member of League of Nations which was found by Woodrow Wilson at January 10, 1920, so Turkey declared symbolically to show that they were with UK and others.

Turkey should've joined sooner, maybe they could've genocided the Germans back to Berlin, amirite?
