Finland was never invaded by Germany .It joined the Germans on their invasion of the USSR in a hope regain what they had lost in the winter war in 1940.
We also have our own "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier" in Athens, Greece, to commemorate all of the fallen Greek soldiers from the time of the Balkan Wars to the World Wars and the Korean War. I didn't know that the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was a popular legend and national monument abroad.
The Russian army had already broken the back of the Nazis when the Allies opened a second front. Remember that 4 out of 5 German soldiers were killed on the eastern front.

@@ИгорьКоршунов-н7и Вермахт разгромил красную армию под Киевом в 1941 намного жестче чем это сделала красная армия под Курском. Но итог войны в 1941 не был ясен.

Если бы союзники заключили перемирие с Германией и СССР остался бы воевать сам на сам с Германией в 1943 году, то Германия бы легко победила и в 1943.
My grand father was here. Corsica, algeria, tunisia, sicilia, italy, France and finally Germany. He never traveled again in his life after that! He never talk about what happen except this : 1- a man set off a grenade at the entrance to the port of Algiers, the hut overturned and they all nearly drowned because none of them could swim. 2- We were watching a documentary on the Battle of Italy. At one point, we saw images of a plane planted in the roof of a house, and he pointed to the screen and said to me: "I was there!" 3- he was in transmission and had to blow up the German telephone lines, but during a night operation, he came face to face with a German soldier. They went their separate ways without saying a word to each other or fighting.
My grandfather was in Poland, france, russia and italy, but on the german side. He also didn´t talked much about it. In his last years I asked him some questions about the war. He surrendered 1945 in italy and went to american prisonment of war.
Один мой дед пыл пленен в возрасте 17 лет (он не был военным) и отправлен в Германию, затем в Польшу. В 43 году его освободила Красная армия и он воевал до 45 года пулеметчиком. Второй дед был офицер на Востоке России и воевал с Японией в Манчжурии. Он был в Японии с делегацией, принимающей капитуляцию Японии.
My grandfather was also in Tunisia, Sicily, Italy, Normandy, Ardennes and Germany. A grenade went off next to him which blew shrapnel into his leg. I’m proud that he served but that shrapnel could have killed him and his descendants. Given his near death experience; I thank God to be alive.

Your list and the video leaves out the 1939 Soviet occupation of eastern Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, plus Bessarabia. Also, the video leaves out the 1939 Soviet invasion of Finland. Instead, we just see Axis troop numbers magically appear between Finland and Leningrad in June of 1941, continuing on until Finland dropped out as an Axis co-belligerent in 1944.
This map even shows how long the soldiers and citizens of Odessa and Sevastopol defended themselves from the Germans, being already in the deep rear. Really cool detail. This is something new in such maps.
Germany invaded the USSR with 3.5M troops, but they needed 2M more. In fact, for the entire duration of the war, they need 2M more front line soldiers than they had. The war was effectively lost by May 1943, but they continued fighting the war for another two years, when all hope of a good result for them had gone.
You know what's interesting. The radio broadcaster rallied the Greeks with his final message by saying" "Brothers, hold the spirit of the war/battle within your souls" (I took this as literal translation of the message. I don't know if it is correct in the context of the message). Combine with the music in the background of the video, it appears like a battle that would boost morale even in defeat.

Для меня, как для внука участника этой войны, это не просто цифры. Это горе. 27 миллионов трагедий. 27 миллионов душ. 27 миллионов не прожитых жизней. 27 миллионов причин ненавидеть властолюбцев, не умеющих говорить за столом.
Not many know that the 7 of those 27 milion are military. The rest are civilians mostly ukrainian and belarusian. Half of those seven milion disappeared in the first half of the war, mainly buy surrender. The rest are the well armed soldiers that won the war. Fun fact: even despite the surrender rate and huge lack of weapons, ammunition and food the russians successfully stopped the well equipped army of the Reich and defended their land to the last at Stalingrad and Leningrad.
Partizans had full control of 50-60% of the territory through the whole war. Germans were basically holding big cities and corridors for the main roads/railways, and they were holding those with heavy casulties since Partizans had daily ambushes and diversions. Germans had to keep in Yugoslavia, especially Serbia, big force just to hold it. Yugoslav resistance was 50x more succesful and better organized than for example French, which was pretty weak compared to positive propaganda media gave them in post war years up to now. Not to mention that Tito even managed in 50s to fight off Soviet rule and to secure basically neutral position for Yugoslavia in the Cold War era. Although Yugoslavia was in reality more leaning toward West, it was receiving big Western aid, was heavily influenced by Western culture without strong censorship, had open borders etc.
He miss Russian invasion on Poland with Germany too. I mean this is typical way in west european history , to hide Russian coop with Hitler and leave Poland ally with no real ingeration. Poland in this time was France/GB ally. After war they leave us in Stalin influence, Moscow establish his gov in Poland and no one help us when AK ( Polish Army) continue fight with Russians after end of WWII. So we suffer from Russian terror since 1989 ("Round table").
In the video, the figures are false, and they completely repeat the propaganda of the criminal Joseph Goebbels, known for his brazen lies. It is shameful for the West that the lie has become the official history of which the brainwashed population of the West is absolute, just as once the brainwashed population of Germany created the Nazis with an anti-human ideology. A fact of history! Hitler's ideology appeared in England and was and is their official ideology, they always and now consider themselves the highest race and the rest second-rate, just unlike the Germans, the British do not openly declare this, but their actions are similar, today the same ideology is followed and served by the Americans as an offshoot infection from Britain. Again, the fact of the history that the "West" prefers to hide: 1) The number of the land army of Germany alone in January 1941 was 7.5 million people, of which even according to the official history of the "West" 90% was used to attack the USSR, and this is 6.5 million! you can count it yourself if you know math, I'll tell you 7.5* 0.9 = 2) The number of German: land army, navy, aviation, air defense, military academies, military police, and other military structures armed and fighting in January 1941 was 12 million!!!The text size exceeds the maximum 3) The number of the entire army, land, air defense, fleet, aviation, etc. in the USSR at the same time was LESS than 5 million! For comparison, Germany alone is 12 million, and the USSR is only 5 million. In addition to Germany, almost the whole of Europe attacked the USSR together with Hitler, in total you can calculate for yourself how many each European country had in the army, there are from 20 to 30 million Hitlerites against 5 million of the USSR. 4) In addition, Hitler's ally was Japan, also ready to attack the USSR, there was also Turkey, also ready to attack the USSR, they all gathered their armies from the 41st year on the border with the USSR and waited for the order to attack. Because of them, the USSR out of its 5 million was forced to keep troops on the border with these countries up to 1.5 million against Japan, 0.5 million against Turkey. As a result, taking into account the rear structures, the USSR had only 2.5 million on the border with Hitler (8-9 million). 5) The maximum number of the USSR army at the front against Hitler did not exceed 6 million at its peak in 1945, the number of Hitler's troops was from 9 million in total at the front in 41 to 6 million in 43.The text size exceeds the maximum 6) The number of sides at the front was equal only at the beginning of 1943!!! ALL THE TIME BEFORE THAT, the number of Germans and Hitlerite troops was many times greater than the number of Soviet troops. Only after the beginning of 1943, the number of the USSR army at the front began to exceed the number of Hitler's troops on the same front. Ps: the video did not show the size of the army of the "allies" and the Germans in 1939 on the western front when Hitler attacked Poland. Ask yourself why such facts are hidden from you, even in an ordinary, albeit false picture. But if you know the history, you can easily find out that there was a huge army of "allies" on the western front who stood and did nothing, only occasionally played football with the Germans. If they show the numbers on that front, then any viewer will understand that: a) either the "allies" were many times weaker than the Germans when, even with a 10-fold numerical superiority, they were afraid of the Germans and could not do anything to them, b) or the "allies" were Hitler's ally and surrendered Poland to Hitler.
1:17 Hitler translation: "I've stood up for you over these years, that I've spent my time properly for my people give your vote with a yes! Then stand up for me as I stand up for you." 3:53 Hitler translation: "We Germans are sick and tired of this continuous oppression."
It's amazing how Germans rallied for such a cheap populist like Hitler. Sadly populist leaders still today gain power by empty phrases blaming outside factors for internal issues and people still fall for it today.
Great video! I wish the background music was a little quieter so it didn't need to be so loud to hear the radio addresses, especially early in the video.
I love this. Learning about the odd battle here and there is good, but this video is the best in that it shows the whole picture. It then makes me want to learn about the individual battles, like when you see a front collapse, it's like oh, what just happened there?

They where beyond outnumbered, but the numbers don't go down until the final squeeze not long after the initial soviet push. I'm guessing by then we're talking masses of raw recruits, most of them basically unfit for battle.

@@tatwo1234They didn't react? oooooo )))) Did they tell you at school about the Munich Agreement of 1938? The Munich Agreement was an agreement between Germany, Great Britain, France and the United States of Italy, drawn up in Munich on September 29, 1938 and signed on the night of September 29-30 of the same year by German Chancellor Adolf Hitler, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, and French Prime Minister Edouard Daladier Beni and Italian Prime Minister Mussolini. The agreement stipulated that Czechoslovakia would be free and linked with Germany in the Sudetenland within 10 days. Or you may know about the joint statements of the "Imperial Industrial Group" and the "Federation of British Industry" (the "Düsseldorf Agreement") - an agreement signed in Düsseldorf on March 15, 1939, which stipulated the economic division of Europe between the monopolies of Germany and England. People rarely write about this. It’s as if their countries and governments are trying to hide these shameful facts, presenting the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact as the only one with Hitler’s Germany. “The Soviet Union is bad, but we always knew that Hitler was bad and were never friends with him” Ahahaha.

As a Pole, I claim that the beginning of the film distorts the reality regarding the side occupied by the Soviets in the war. On September 17, 1939, the USSR attacked Poland from the east, which meant that the Polish Army had to defend itself from two sides. It is not visible on the map, as if the Polish army was simply transferring forces to the west, which is not true. The Germans and Russians were on the same side of the conflict until Operation Barbarossa began. The red army were bandits. I encourage you to read, for example, about the Katyn massacre.
The polish government left before the soviets “invaded” if you expected the USSR to let Germany move all the way up to its borders you’re crazy. They needed a buffer state. Dont leave your people without a government and then get mad when the USSR creates a buffer state that would eventually help to , you know, inevitably beat fascism out of europe

Ссылаясь на соображения безопасности для Ленинграда, расположенного вблизи финской границы, советское руководство выдвигало несколько предложений на протяжении 1938-го и 1939-го годов о том, чтобы Финляндия уступила пограничные территории (Карельский перешеек, острова в Финском заливе, часть области Петсамо) в обмен на земли в Карелии, которые были вдвое больше запрашиваемых территорий. Финляндия отказалась от этих предложений. 26 ноября 1939 года правительство СССР направило ноту протеста правительству Финляндии по поводу артиллерийского обстрела, который, по заявлению советской стороны, был совершён с финской территории. 30 ноября СССР начал вторжение в Финляндию

There is missing the Soviet invasion of Poland in September 1939, the Soviet invasion of Romania and Finland in 1940. It should be remembered that Soviet Russia is responsible for the outbreak of World War 2 AT LEAST as much as Germany. And that the Soviets paved the way for Adolf's rise to power, hoping that he would unleash war on the West, and then the Soviets would "liberate" Europe
Russian Admiral: "Sir, we only have military equipment for roughly 2.5 million men. How many people do u want on the front? Stalin: "Yes" Ps: Excellent work 👏 👍
Yes. Opération Barbarossa was delayed due to yougoslavia war and italian difficulties in Greece, that’s why Battle of Moscow was in december during the hard winter (Germans had problems in Smolensk and Kiev too). That, and the fact that USSR was sure in late 41 that Japan wouldn’t open another front on the east, so they send a lot of their troops to help against the germans.
@@Puccino710Even sooner there was no chance. Both wehraboos and a lot of documetaries have overtaken a great deal of German that time propaganda that Germans have only lost due to winter. German logistics was a pure disaster, since day 1. They didn't have enough trucks, drivers, trains, coal, ammo, anything. Their army logistics was dependent on horses, and if there were trucks, they were mostly looted. German war industry was a bad joke. War in Poland lasted 3 weeks, France 5 weeks, Balkans roughly the same. German army had no chance at all fighting constantly offensively more than 2-3 months, and they knew it. Also their doctrine since Prussia was like that.
@@noldo3837 and adding on to that, very importantly they had run out of fuel, if you look at any battle in the late eastern front germany did not have the fuel to launch tank offensives despite having the tanks. they even cut tank production from what it couldve been as they had no need for more tanks that couldnt be fueled.

This is great, shows not only the battle lines but the effective strength of the opposing armies. As late as May '44 the Germans were able to amass 3 million troops on the Eastern Front (though the quality of the troops and the amount of equipment was far lower than the three million that invaded in '41). Really well done!
This is incredible! Is it possible to add the names of the countries involved and mark some important events, such as the D-Day landings, the nuclear bombs on Japan, the attack on Pearl Harbor and others? (I know some are hinted at in the audio) so that one can guide oneself even better?
Why there''s no URSS invading Poland at the beginning, but some mysterious ghost absorbing Polish land on the East? And no Finland Winter War either. Well, I know why. 😅
Well, technically winter war was not part of ww2. And the reason why USSR is not painted while taking eastern Poland is that he was not at war with Allies.
Maybe that's why Poland seized these lands in the 20s of the 20th century from Russia. And then, in 1939, the USSR took its lands from its enemy Poland. What do you think about the fact that Poland and Hitler took territory from Czechoslovakia in 1937? Poland is an angel?🤔

Really good. Puts into perspective many fronts. Particularly noticeable how small the bleb of the 'Battle of the Bulge'. And it's as if the British and Commonwealth forces in North Africa never had any part
They did, though. In that front alone the Allies drew some 500k Axis troops away that could very well reinforce the Eastern Front. After the French front is reopened from the Normandy disembark you can see an additional 1-1,5 million troops being drawn.

My grand father was here. Corsica, algeria, tunisia, sicilia, italy, France and finally Germany. He never traveled again in his life after that! He never talk about what happen except this : 1- a man set off a grenade at the entrance to the port of Algiers, the hut overturned and they all nearly drowned because none of them could swim. 2- We were watching a documentary on the Battle of Italy. At one point, we saw images of a plane planted in the roof of a house, and he pointed to the screen and said to me: "I was there!" 3- he was in transmission and had to blow up the German telephone lines, but during a night operation, he came face to face with a German soldier. They went their separate ways without saying a word to each other or fighting.
My grandfather was in Poland, france, russia and italy, but on the german side. He also didn´t talked much about it. In his last years I asked him some questions about the war. He surrendered 1945 in italy and went to american prisonment of war.

Good stuff. Only thing missing was the Partisans in Yugoslavia, since they were independent like the Finns. Otherwise really great.
not only independent they destroyed more german military than whole of so called western front
800 000 soldiers in second half of 1944 from end of the war.
Partizans had full control of 50-60% of the territory through the whole war. Germans were basically holding big cities and corridors for the main roads/railways, and they were holding those with heavy casulties since Partizans had daily ambushes and diversions. Germans had to keep in Yugoslavia, especially Serbia, big force just to hold it. Yugoslav resistance was 50x more succesful and better organized than for example French, which was pretty weak compared to positive propaganda media gave them in post war years up to now.
Not to mention that Tito even managed in 50s to fight off Soviet rule and to secure basically neutral position for Yugoslavia in the Cold War era. Although Yugoslavia was in reality more leaning toward West, it was receiving big Western aid, was heavily influenced by Western culture without strong censorship, had open borders etc.

In the video, the figures are false, and they completely repeat the propaganda of the criminal Joseph Goebbels, known for his brazen lies.
It is shameful for the West that the lie has become the official history of which the brainwashed population of the West is absolute, just as once the brainwashed population of Germany created the Nazis with an anti-human ideology.
A fact of history! Hitler's ideology appeared in England and was and is their official ideology, they always and now consider themselves the highest race and the rest second-rate, just unlike the Germans, the British do not openly declare this, but their actions are similar, today the same ideology is followed and served by the Americans as an offshoot infection from Britain.
Again, the fact of the history that the "West" prefers to hide:
1) The number of the land army of Germany alone in January 1941 was 7.5 million people, of which even according to the official history of the "West" 90% was used to attack the USSR, and this is 6.5 million! you can count it yourself if you know math, I'll tell you 7.5* 0.9 =
2) The number of German: land army, navy, aviation, air defense, military academies, military police, and other military structures armed and fighting in January 1941 was 12 million!!!The text size exceeds the maximum
3) The number of the entire army, land, air defense, fleet, aviation, etc. in the USSR at the same time was LESS than 5 million! For comparison, Germany alone is 12 million, and the USSR is only 5 million. In addition to Germany, almost the whole of Europe attacked the USSR together with Hitler, in total you can calculate for yourself how many each European country had in the army, there are from 20 to 30 million Hitlerites against 5 million of the USSR.
4) In addition, Hitler's ally was Japan, also ready to attack the USSR, there was also Turkey, also ready to attack the USSR, they all gathered their armies from the 41st year on the border with the USSR and waited for the order to attack. Because of them, the USSR out of its 5 million was forced to keep troops on the border with these countries up to 1.5 million against Japan, 0.5 million against Turkey. As a result, taking into account the rear structures, the USSR had only 2.5 million on the border with Hitler (8-9 million).
5) The maximum number of the USSR army at the front against Hitler did not exceed 6 million at its peak in 1945, the number of Hitler's troops was from 9 million in total at the front in 41 to 6 million in 43.The text size exceeds the maximum
6) The number of sides at the front was equal only at the beginning of 1943!!! ALL THE TIME BEFORE THAT, the number of Germans and Hitlerite troops was many times greater than the number of Soviet troops. Only after the beginning of 1943, the number of the USSR army at the front began to exceed the number of Hitler's troops on the same front.
Ps: the video did not show the size of the army of the "allies" and the Germans in 1939 on the western front when Hitler attacked Poland. Ask yourself why such facts are hidden from you, even in an ordinary, albeit false picture. But if you know the history, you can easily find out that there was a huge army of "allies" on the western front who stood and did nothing, only occasionally played football with the Germans. If they show the numbers on that front, then any viewer will understand that: a) either the "allies" were many times weaker than the Germans when, even with a 10-fold numerical superiority, they were afraid of the Germans and could not do anything to them, b) or the "allies" were Hitler's ally and surrendered Poland to Hitler.

The agreement stipulated that Czechoslovakia would be free and linked with Germany in the Sudetenland within 10 days.
Or you may know about the joint statements of the "Imperial Industrial Group" and the "Federation of British Industry" (the "Düsseldorf Agreement") - an agreement signed in Düsseldorf on March 15, 1939, which stipulated the economic division of Europe between the monopolies of Germany and England.
People rarely write about this.

As a Pole, I claim that the beginning of the film distorts the reality regarding the side occupied by the Soviets in the war. On September 17, 1939, the USSR attacked Poland from the east, which meant that the Polish Army had to defend itself from two sides. It is not visible on the map, as if the Polish army was simply transferring forces to the west, which is not true. The Germans and Russians were on the same side of the conflict until Operation Barbarossa began. The red army were bandits. I encourage you to read, for example, about the Katyn massacre.
The polish government left before the soviets “invaded” if you expected the USSR to let Germany move all the way up to its borders you’re crazy. They needed a buffer state.

It was. Eastern front was brutal
@@Puccino710it wasn’t, but these videos just don’t show how the war on the seas and in the air (exceptionally important) went, and that’s key.
Except it wasn’t? This is just the ground war. You gotta take into account the aerial war too.
Well, maybe Soviets shouldn't have helped the Nazis start the war for their own selfish gains then (eastern Poland, Baltics, Finland). Stalin worked with a Fascist dictator, then got burned by a Fascist dictator. 🤷🏼♂️

Where is the USSR invasion of Finland(11.30.1939 - 03.02.1940)?
And where is Soviet Union invading Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Romania?

@@RoyalMela it was under n@zi control during that point
Ссылаясь на соображения безопасности для Ленинграда, расположенного вблизи финской границы, советское руководство выдвигало несколько предложений на протяжении 1938-го и 1939-го годов о том, чтобы Финляндия уступила пограничные территории (Карельский перешеек, острова в Финском заливе, часть области Петсамо) в обмен на земли в Карелии, которые были вдвое больше запрашиваемых территорий. Финляндия отказалась от этих предложений. 26 ноября 1939 года правительство СССР направило ноту протеста правительству Финляндии по поводу артиллерийского обстрела, который, по заявлению советской стороны, был совершён с финской территории. 30 ноября СССР начал вторжение в Финляндию
This looks fantastic good job
And you are saying that only Germany attacked Poland? Russia did not??? Load of BS!!!!
1)Poland is waiting for help and defence from Britain and France from Nazi army but didn't get, and Nazis attacted Poland.
2)Ussr invaded to east of Poland for to made a protection of Ukraine and Belorasia border and for creation of non-aggression zone with Nazi Germany.
3) Nazi Germany and Ussr always was enemies, wan't allies.
4) if someone doesn't know what Nazism means, you could go to Auschwitz Museum
Покажите акт объявления войны с Польской или Советской стороны?
Перед вводом советских войск Молотов вызывал польского посла и предупредил о об этом, объяснив это необходимостью безопасности.
И да.. как думаете, насколько было бы больше жертв в Польше, если бы Германия заняла бы её всю и сразу?

Why do you only show the German attack on Poland when Poland was also attacked by the Soviets on September 17?
Hey, I have a question. How did you make both sides be able to have encirclements? Sorry if you didn't understand
As you can see the end was clear once Steiner failed to counter attack.
haha
There is missing the Soviet invasion of Poland in September 1939, the Soviet invasion of Romania and Finland in 1940. It should be remembered that Soviet Russia is responsible for the outbreak of World War 2 AT LEAST as much as Germany. And that the Soviets paved the way for Adolf's rise to power, hoping that he would unleash war on the West, and then the Soviets would "liberate" Europe
Who closed eyes on demilitarisation of Rheinland? Anchluss of Austria? Division of Chechoslovakia? And USSR responsible for this? Idiotism.

The ahistorical meme 😭
The fact that they were so close on capturing Moscow, and yet the Russians pushed them back, that was beautiful
Yes. Opération Barbarossa was delayed due to yougoslavia war and italian difficulties in Greece, that’s why Battle of Moscow was in december during the hard winter (Germans had problems in Smolensk and Kiev too).
That, and the fact that USSR was sure in late 41 that Japan wouldn’t open another front on the east, so they send a lot of their troops to help against the germans.
@@Puccino710Even sooner there was no chance. Both wehraboos and a lot of documetaries have overtaken a great deal of German that time propaganda that Germans have only lost due to winter.
German logistics was a pure disaster, since day 1. They didn't have enough trucks, drivers, trains, coal, ammo, anything. Their army logistics was dependent on horses, and if there were trucks, they were mostly looted. German war industry was a bad joke. War in Poland lasted 3 weeks, France 5 weeks, Balkans roughly the same. German army had no chance at all fighting constantly offensively more than 2-3 months, and they knew it. Also their doctrine since Prussia was like that.
@@noldo3837 and adding on to that, very importantly they had run out of fuel, if you look at any battle in the late eastern front germany did not have the fuel to launch tank offensives despite having the tanks. they even cut tank production from what it couldve been as they had no need for more tanks that couldnt be fueled.
@@noldo3837 first step was to not invade the USSR. Invading Russia is itself a logistical nightmare
@@noldo3837 Ye, the war on the eastern front was a disaster for the Germans. Invading a country that would not surrender, while it also having the largest land area of any country, is extremely hard. Logistics were the main problem, and I don't see how would the Germans be able to improve that given the limited time they had.
Why USSR aren`t marked as Germany allies? They both attacked Poland, why on this map soviet invasion has no color at all?
Потому что СССР ни когда не был союзником Германии. У Германии были союзники Италия и Япония. Ни кто не называет союзниками Германии Францию, Чехословакию, Болгарию, не смотря на то, что вся их промышленная мощность работала на фюрера.
@@ТынисМяги-б5ъ Tak proč SSSR zautočilo společně s Německem na Polsko??? A Česko a Francie se nepočítájí jako spojenci Německa, protože byli donuceni pro ně pracovat a byl tam velký odboj proti nacismu. Vždyť spousta lidí sabotovala stroje, když je dělali a proto se začlo složitě označovat, kdo co dělal.

Amazing job! Great video
My country fought till the end. I am so proud!! While others that got areas after ww2 didn't fight at all... Everything for Greece 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
why is the division of Poland between the Germans and the Soviet Union not shown? Why is it shown that only the Germans did it? Why is the Russian invasion of Finland and Bessarabia not shown? Where did the occupation of Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia disappear? All this also happened in 1939-1940.
They forgot that Soviet Union was also war criminal... instead it looked like Poland was sucked with straw by Germans

exactly
Local uprisings and resistance movements are completely omitted in the video. For example, in Yugoslavia huge swathes of territory were liberated by the resistance.

Apparently in the same place as Czechoslovakia, which the Germans and Poles attacked in 1938
@@1999MVK Oh, so it was ok to Stalin help 4d0lf?
Poles took few disputed since 1919 sq km in '38. Soviets took half country and murdered thousands of Polish POW. Because they wanted to make buffer zone.
This is great, shows not only the battle lines but the effective strength of the opposing armies. As late as May '44 the Germans were able to amass 3 million troops on the Eastern Front
(though the quality of the troops and the amount of equipment was far lower than the three million that invaded in '41).
Really well done!
And yet the millions more Russians still couldn't stop them or push them back until the US entered the war.
This is incredible! Is it possible to add the names of the countries involved and mark some important events, such as the D-Day landings, the nuclear bombs on Japan, the attack on Pearl Harbor and others? (I know some are hinted at in the audio) so that one can guide oneself even better?
Incredible! Germany was more organized in 1939 than Russia is in 2022.

Well, technically winter war was not part of ww2. And the reason why USSR is not painted while taking eastern Poland is that he was not at war with Allies.

Ribentrop Mołotow pact
Maybe that's why Poland seized these lands in the 20s of the 20th century from Russia. And then, in 1939, the USSR took its lands from its enemy Poland. What do you think about the fact that Poland and Hitler took territory from Czechoslovakia in 1937? Poland is an angel?🤔
@@matveyglazachev4276 Both were very much part of WWll. Soviet invading Romania, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania was part of WWll, so why invading Finland is not?
And WWll in Europe was for the first two years a shared operation with Germany and Soviet Union. Just google Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact and you'll be suprised.
Can you do ww2 with units
Great, absolute masterclass
Really good. Puts into perspective many fronts. Particularly noticeable how small the bleb of the 'Battle of the Bulge'. And it's as if the British and Commonwealth forces in North Africa never had any part
They did, though. In that front alone the Allies drew some 500k Axis troops away that could very well reinforce the Eastern Front. After the French front is reopened from the Normandy disembark you can see an additional 1-1,5 million troops being drawn.
I'm enjoying the video, but I am also noticing that the date counter in the upper right hand corner shows 30 days for every month, including February.
Nice one. But you should start the video by showing the Invasion of Poland by Germany AND Soviet Russia

Great video. One small error: the Channel Islands were occupied for most of the war, from the fall of France in June 1940 until the end of the war in Europe in May 1945. They are shown in blue, south of Britain but nearer to France, north of Saint-Malo.
