@@GB-kj3fr bigger deal?without Italy there would have been no invasion of North Africa, in addition to the strategic position of our peninsula in the Mediterranean we had an imposing fleet compared to the economy of the times and we owned Libya as a "base" of recollection, our fleet has successfully escorted 85% of supply convoys to Africa (the number may seem large, but supplies were scarce due to the amount of wagons, men present on the field). Unfortunately we did not conquer Malta, it would have been a further stop of supplies and a blockade to the British in the Atlantic could have been implemented.

Poland would do the same but "Great(unsure) Britain" left them to die as alliance. Roger MOORHOUSE: Poland was betrayed. Also We will never forget: Polish soldiers were one of the largest national formations fighting against Germany. More than 200,000 members of the Polish Armed Forces in the West had fought under British High Command. No. 303 Squadron RAF one of two polish squadrons claimed the largest number of aircraft shot down!!! None of them has been invited to the Victory Parade. Simply Churchill didn't like Poles. There is more facts about it so to all the kids without any knowledge,before you throw hate on me read the history...
Thats just respectful until you think about the atrocities that Britain also did in the war. They should not get respected Just because they were in the winning side. They were also responsible for terrible things, and their war crimminals were never judged like Germany's were.

Terrible
@@Jz9222 I'm sorry, but that is such a croc of shit. I don't know all the numbers, but Sweden certainly was incremental in saving Finland from the Soviets, specifically, total annexation by them. The Swedish government sent ~135.000 rifles, 347 machine guns, 450 light machine guns, ~50.000.000 rounds of ammunition, 92 anti-tank guns, 100 anti-aircraft guns, 144 other field guns, ~300.000 artillery shells, 300 sea mines, 500 depth charges. 138 aircraft were sent to Finland from Sweden + a bit more, but they were privately fundraised and have no clear numbers. Sweden also broke the rule of export of military munitions in peacetime by importing some 200 planes that were sent by other countries to be assembled in Sweden and then sent to Finland. They set up a volunteer flying corps in Finland and a flying school in Sweden for Swedish volunteers. Later when Sweden imported 44 Finnish-bought American planes, Sweden was so busy assembling them that the assembly of their own airforce was hampered. Sweden allowed Finnish submarines to be repaired in Swedish docks. ~15000 Swedes volunteered to fight, ~10000 of which got accepted and ~8000 who became part of organized units in Finland to fight in the war until it ended. Some 80.000 Finnish children were sent to Sweden during the winter war. Keep in mind, this is only the winter war and not the continuation war, where contributions were also made. I'm so tired of my country being called cowardly despite our best efforts to help our Finnish brethren all the while trying to stay neutral and saving our country and people from merciless bombing. You have to keep in mind the times they were in. It's easy to put blame in hindsight, knowing what happened. But Sweden successfully navigated a precarious situation in Europe, one where Sweden was on thin icewhile not ignoring the plight of our neighbors. Finlands sak är vår!

From a German perspective this was actually really interesting. There were some alliances I was not aware of. Really good to have an overview like this!
Finn here. Everyone who knows even little bit about our history is aware of the fact that without Germany's help in the Winter war and the Continuation war the faith of our country would have been completely different in a negative way. Though we didn't really get military equipment or ammunition from the Germany during the Winter war (later in the Continuation war we did and a lot), Germany sent us grain and food which was crucial help since the previous year's harvest had been very poor. Danke! ✌
@@Byrzzaa and then later on to save themselves the fins then betrayed Germany and kick the german troops out of their homeland... not before killing some German soldiers themselves though.
@@someblackguy7371 Yes. We definitely had to SAVE ourselves. We had to make a peace deal with Soviet Union since Germany was losing the war so government realized that Soviet Union could invade Finland and taking harsh actions against people like sending most men to gulags since Stalin would have seen Finnish people as a threat. Finnish and German military brass tried to agree on withdrawal for a quite a long time. Finnish government and military commanders sent fake information for Soviet Union about German forces withdrawal and there was even fake battles so that Soviet Union commanders believed that we were pushing Germans out. I don't remember 100% sure how the situation escalated but then Soviet Union found out that we weren't actually trying to get Germans out quickly enough so they gave really strict time limits for withdrawal of German troops. Since Germans were not willing to withdraw at those time limits (Germans were already withdrawing their troops to Norway and Europe since they needed troops there) Finnish commanders had no choice but fight Germans out of Northern Finland. It was about saving our country from invasion and genocide

I like that even the most obscure countries were added in the Allies/Axis lists. It goes in much more depth than other videos, showing the exact areas which were occupied.

So, you think Germany's mistake was to attack Soviet Union instead of UK?
@@riuthora7584 these are two mistakes
They needed to attack the USSR to secure oil. Without it, Germany would've lost the war against the British even without the help of the US. Unfortunately for the Germans, they couldn't secure Leningrad fast enough, nor could they grab the oil fields quick enough.
Germany were doomed tbh they would have been obliterated by the british navy if they tried a land invasion
@@riuthora7584 tbh germanys biggest mistake was starting an unwinnable war lmao
Can i use this video on my edit?
Switzerland is just watching probably eating popcorn
Amazing video! This is one of (or) the best WW2 flag video! Must have taken a long time!
At 8:12, you can, if you're fast enough to pause in time, see the Independent State of Macedonia which lasted only for 5 days (8-13 September 1944).
8:12 in nuetshall Macedonia:I'mfree thanks soviet for attack bulgaria Yugoslavia:you are going to yugoslavia Macedonia:noooooooooooooooo

A moment of silence for Canada, who played a vital role in the war and was not mentioned.
And poland them to kinda
Interesting video. I know time is the essence to hold interest. I wish it were longer and major cities marked. Thanks for sharing. It put several things in quick perspective.
Soooo much details in this video, even Yugoslavia joining the axis for some days was included, great job man!!!
In addition, the majority of the Croatian population refused to fight and welcomed the Germans as liberators. When it comes to Yugoslavia in the Second World War, the only resistance to the invasion came from units in Serbia and Montenegro. On the graph, it seems that it is only a few days, but from the inside, looking at everything from the beginning of the capitulation, the Serbs fought against the Germans, and even overthrew their government, which wanted to surrender to the Germans with the protests of the citizens ``better a war than a pact, better grave than a slave''
@@032HULK 👍👍👍🤩🤩 wow
2:34 if anyone was wondering
This is actually very cool ngl
What app or what they used for this
2:30 nice drifting from Yugoslavia
The Soviet Union really played a big role in all of this.
Random fact: 80% of overall losses Nazi Germany + it's allies suffered on the Eastern Front.
They truly won the WW2
@@meimeilei They would have been beaten if it wasnt for the 22,000+ tanks and armoured veihicles and 14,000+ aircraft given to the Russians by the UK and the US. TWENTY per cent of ALL armour fielded by the Russians was given to them by the west.
Especially when allied with nazis to destroy Poland
@@peterstubbs5934 They would never have been defeated. The deliveries avoided millions more deaths and shortened the time to victory, but there was no talk of losing the war.
Finland seems to be active all throughout
Thanks. 😀👍
Switzerland during WWII: What are you doing, Stepgermany?
bankin'
I love how the moment it hits December the german invasion of the USSR just goes backwards
Britain suffering himself in the allied powers while Germany vibes when he has teamates
Everyone: Changes flags Switzerland: We don't do that here
Yugoslavia: joins axis Yugoslavia milliseconds later: ight imma head out
Government tried to buy the time, but Serbian population did not liked Nazis and their corporal Chief of Staff
@@JohnJohn-km6fs Plus Yugoslavia lost upwards of a million people during the occupation, mostly by disobedience, mass shootings and Croatian concentration camps.
Pretty intresting that my grandma was born in Malatya which is now destoryed with an earthquake that is sad is born when İtaly invaded greece
Dude my history teacher would be impressed by this Also I like how Switzerland is just chilling
Its helping germany
If ww3 comes switzerland will dominate because they have prepared for the last 100 years or so
The world : Is literally killing each other all around them Turkey , Sweden , Switzerland , Spain and Portugal : *This is fine.*
You dont know how hard it is when you have to prepare for war even you dont participate it.
The last two were de-facto faschist states by then, they were just smart enough to distance themsevles from the axis, allowing them to persist until the 70-s (as pretty brutal, although generic autocracies).

@@dorotach3326 I imagine the people at the time were very happy to be occupied by the Brits rather than the Nazis.
Axis like over half the time: i am bigger, i am better, I AM BETTER
That tiny speck of german forces between the black sea and the caspian sea. I can hear an oof from up here.
My dad was born in 1938. When he was 6 he was in the Hospital because he had a Pleurisy as well as a Otitis media. In 1944 the British bombed our City, including the hospital in which my dad was. As a result one of the huge ass windows that they had back then fell on his bed and ALMOST killed him, however his hospital bed saved him from it.
Seems like Britain is a bad country
I have a similar story: German soldier almost killed my grandmother when she was at the backyard, however he run out of the ammunition so she end up being alive
@@morelka1872 Damn. U mean they wanted to shoot her?

The best video of the World war
Every time I hear this song it reminds me of this video.
Many historians forget and it's sad to see them forgotten again here but Canada also fought with the Allies in Europe and took part in the D-Day invasion, they took Juno beach and suffered over 1,000 casualties. Of all 6 units to take part in D-Day (3 American, 2 British, 1 Canadian) the Canadian unit took their target and moved furthest inland of all 6 units. They went on the help liberate Europe and it shouldn't be forgotten.
this is not forgotten in Russia, we went through it at school (personally in my school yes, but I can’t say about others)
We thank you brother 🙏 to all of the countries that helped Britain we thank you... Canada, Anzacs, India, Poland, China the list goes on. Without your help we couldn't have lasted as long as we did until the USA joined.
🇨🇦 Juno Beach 🇨🇦
Lets not forget about Nicaragua, the most brutal one yet. They took a german guys pool.
Let's not forget that Canada joined the war when Hitler retreated for almost a year and the USSR managed to liberate all of its previously conquered territory, after which it began to liberate Europe. To have time to participate in finishing off a war that has already lost is a serious heroism. The USSR began to fight fascism in 1941, and Canada entered the war in 1944. During these 3 years, almost 27 million died in the USSR, and here you are talking about a thousand Canadians who died for the right to participate in the division of Europe after the victory over Hitler?
Hitler: we gonna invade Soviet Union! Stalin: *UNO reverse card
German Reich: NO-
That moment when poland spawns back: WHY
Was the reverse card him getting on his knees and begging the US for supplies lol? US lend lease program won thst war.

Whats the music called in 7:26
How do you do this?? I wanna do it
As a time traveling steam engine, that war really was something. A moment of silence to all those who participated in the war, doesn’t matter if you were apart of the allies or not.
I have a WW2 book search it up
Why would we have a moment of silence for the axis??
@@billyconnolli8224 i mean, ig there were germans who actually didnt want to fight in the war and, well, kill innocent people and stuff, but they were forced in some way. Dont mind me im just imagining.
But i just say that because i read it in books or watched it in movies. Hell no i wasnt there so idk
@@wadabid6165 I don't care if that's the reason a lot of them fought, it probably was, but it doesn't make what they did any less evil.
I love this synchrony in 7:27, when the music begins right when nazi germany takes hungary off.
😂😂😂🤣🤣
Thanks 👍
8:13 Independent State of Macedonia If your were wondering what that was that joined the axis power for a split second
I love how you can see with good clarity of what's going on in the eastern front.
