what if germany won WW2

You do realise that the majority of people in this Country at the time were of Germanic descent, and as such Hitler had no intention of wiping out or eradicating the British civilian populace if Operation Sealion had been enacted and he had somehow gone on to win the war.

Hitler, even if he was a megalomaniacal sociopath, actually had a lot of respect for the British people.

Bet he wouldn't have that respect for the British people anymore :P

We probably would have had already set up a base in mars, established nuclear fusion tech, flying cars, little to no poverty, etc ... in fact, I seriously believe life from a purely technical point would have been pretty sweet.

Except we would all have been white with blue eyes.

War is great for technological breakthroughs.

Now if we hadn't had 500 years of the Dark Ages we might well have been doing those things you have said now :P
 
Places like Bradford would be damn site different thats for sure.

Britain is still feeling the effects of WWII as is probably the country worst off since then, if left us on its knees and is still down there. Though successive stupid governments like the one we have now haven't helped.

"No more boom and bust!" bloody plonker. :rolleyes:

With Germany having more members in the EU Parliament than any other country they have finally started to take over Europe, this time they are achieving it politically rather than forcefully.

The pen is mightier than the sword. :)

Unlike the British colonies, or the Soviet regime which killed more people and more sufferred horribly than under Nazism. I think you need to read up on some history.

I'm not expecting people to play top trumps with the most inhumane forces known to man. I was merely stating that the Nazis were horrific.

And for what its worth the way the third reich operated it was never going to win, under Hitler anyway. Infact i'd guess if the far right never came to power in the 30's we'd all be under a Red boot.

I think you need to read up more yourself. How in the world can you compare the Soviet regime with the British Empire and indeed say that people "more suffered horribly" than under Nazism!? Ridiculous. a) I believe the Soviet regime was responsible for the worst genocide in history, no one beats it. b) The British Empire comes nowhere near The soviet deaths, and Id like to say Nazism too (certainly not in the systematic manner of Nazi/German death camps. c)Think about the motives, you arent at all.
 
Actually, on the grander scale, things probably wouldn't have worked out all that differently.

The Reich would have taken the place of the USSR, that's all. Ideologically there wasn't much between them, apart from Hitler's obsession with race, that is. You would still end up with a fantastically corrupt and inefficient totalitarian empire locked in a military stalemate with the US.

Because of Hitler's obsession with race, the Reich would, probably, have more active simmering insurgencies around the peripheries. These would be a constant draw on resources, and would ultimately have the same demoralising and financially crippling effect on the Reich as Afghanistan had on the USSR.

As for technology, there would be some fantastic showcase projects within driving distance from Berlin. For one thing, Germany would almost certainly have won the space race hands down. However, totalitarian systems are not geared to please the consumer. For the average person, there would just be a lot of talk about sacrificing personal comfort for the Fatherland and the Bright Future. Moreover, industry based on coerced labour tends to struggle with hi-tech stuff. Germany never produced a nuke; The USSR ultimately lost the space race and utterly failed to launch a competitive electronics industry - despite both countries having the strongest physicists and engineers in the world.

The human rights situation would probably ease up after Hitler's death, just as it did after Stalin's. You might even have ended up with a Chinese style "managed democracy".

The really scary thing is what would have happened in the Far East if the Japanese won. All of East Asia would be a bit like North Korea.

I'm not sure if you are joking or nor, but judging from your location I would say no. If that is the case then the rest of the world has some nasty suprises for you.

Is that why the native population of this island is doing a exodus given half a chance? Britain is only paradise for 3rd world parasites and twisted communist laws.
 
slightly off topic but the girls in the link above should be made to cover up and banned from wearing a short skirt unless they are prepared to attend weight watchers :)
