No, not for the German Army The moral of the story, Avoid being an ally with a stupid idiot such as Mussolini. That fool delayed the Germans one month of lunching barbarossa operation by making them into wars they didn't think about such as, Greece and Libya. One month can make a huge difference according to the Germans that time and the battle of France is a convincing evidence .
There was no western front by the time barbarossa started. Britain was the only holdout in which Germany didn't share a land border with. Hitler needed the oil in the caucasus and aimed to fulfill one of his objectives of creating lebensraum. Plus both Stalin and Hitler were very suspicious of each other and it was only a matter of time either would betray the other. Hitler took the initiative as he had the largest land army at the time and wanted to quickly destroy the USSR in it's weakened state as evident by the initial success of barbarossa.
About how far did the Germans have to go to reach Moscow, I mean from day one of the invasion? Were they already staged in Ukrainian territory, or maybe not yet because they didn't want to tip off stalin? Like, I guess what I'm asking is does anyone know near which cities the Germans took off from
So much potential in this channel, but damn those borders killed me xD Also, I'd recommended you to put Germany and its puppets in dark grey and USSR in red.
@user-wj6dt5bq3w True, but it wasn't enough. Germany had IG Farben working on Coal to gasoline technology long before Barbarossa. But Hitler was an idiot. Between the speed injections and the brain rot, racial socialism he advocated its really clear now how stupid the man actually was. But ironically when the allies IQ tested the other german leaders for Nuremberg they all had very high IQs. So this tells me 2 things. First, Highly Intelligent people aren't always the smartest and most clever of humans. Secondly, they are the most prone to extremely ignorant ideas without common sense. Wouldn't you agree the Nazi's ideology was literally some of the dumbest ideas a modern nations has ever attempted?

Stalin planned to invade Europe on July 10th, 1941 in Operation Thunder with the world's largest army. However, Germany preemptively invaded the USSR with only 3 weeks to spare.
I remember stood outside in January or February 2006 here in England and it was literally the coldest I'd ever been. The cold made my nose, ears, facial muscles, feet, hands almost useless, it was painful to breathe, I could hardly speak properly, I couldn't use buttons or use a lighter, I was shaking and I could feel the cold through my shoes and the freezing fog was the worst I'd ever known even though I was born here. I can't imagine the cold of a Russian winter, it would be very difficult to just live, never mind fight against a tenacious and brave enemy.
I lived in South Germany starting in 2004 for two years as a nanny from the USA. I luckily made lots of friends, teaching many Germans along the way, that many... many Americans did not want the Bush wars, as they angrily accosted me about it... My newly won German friends told me the hilarious story of visiting Scotland as young men and women, shivering in their head to toe cold wear, watching the Scottish boys ride their bikes up and down the streets in short sleeves shirts. They told me this with much admiration for our brothers of the North. Hearts of humanity, - I love you all very much.
It’s a shame you failed to mention what an impact the initial air attack made on the start of the war. The Nazi Germans effectively obliterated western soviet command posts, muntions and air fields with most aircraft included. A chief pilot, after landing from an inspection of the damage to his air base simply shot himself.
Some of your script is VERY similar to Mark Felton's video on the same topic, produced several months before this. Almost verbatim in places. That's plagiarism, dude. Why can't you write your own script? Or at least ackowledge your sources?
In 1950 when US forces invaded Inchon Korea the operation there was compared to this WW2 era offensive only that the Marines of the 1st Division were slower than the German Army and Waffen SS who reached Moscow in 4 days while the Blue Diamonds reached Seoul in 14 days.
Hmm. It is first stated that the Red army was inferior in equipment AND numbers, then a few minute later says that after the battles of Smoensk and Kiev "it no longer outnumbered" the German army. Inconsistencies like this cast doubt on the accuracy of the entire vid.
I never hear anybody talk about the inadequate tank for German to use the panzer ll Both the Panzer I and II were considered as stopgaps before the arrival of more advanced models, namely the Panzer III and IV. Despite of this, the Panzer II remained in service throughout the war, being the main light tank in German service and being used as a scout, although many wheeled vehicles preformed this specialized task far better. In this particular role, the Panzer II lacked both speed and range. It was gradually improved and produced until 1943, as no satisfactory replacement was ready in time.
rThe reason for the collapse of the russian defences lay largely in how they were set up. Were they even set up for defence at all? Was Stalin about to attack Hitler? Operation Bagration, the biggest operation of the war, which is unknown in the west, and yet which smashed the German armies before Moscow and drove them back into Germany. I would have liked to have seen something on that.
My Pa's mother was Polish good dad Ukrainian, both were thrown into prison camp during this. Luckily the British saved them both asking with others and they both joined the to put an end to both sides
