  • Germany and the Soviet Union briefly allied in a war against Poland. This war started the Second World War, but while France and Britain swore to defend Poland, they only declared war on Germany, not on the Soviet Union.
    But what if Germany never contacted the Soviet Union and just invaded Poland alone? You may be quick to shrug this off and say that nothing drastic would happen, but you will be wrong!...

    This is actually a stronger Germany after NOT wasting resources fighting in the west and a weaker USSR having less time to re arm. Germany would advance further, probably capturing Moscow and the Caucasus, not that that would mean the USSR is completely out. IF France and England don't invade before. Maybe Germany can use Japan as a threat to keep the allies from invading and promising to split the USSR territories with input from France and England.

    Fun fact: The Soviet Union, instead of declaring war on Poland send a note to Polish offcials saying "Poland doesn't exist" and that they were entering Eastern Poland to protect Belarussian and Ukrainian minorities, Polish high command forbid opening fire on Soviet troops entering Polish territory unless they open fire or will attempt disarming the Polish soldiers which is the reason of the tiny Soviet losses during the invasion.

    There is something that isn't ture:
    Most likely, if the Soviet Union wouldn't invade, Romania would join Poland's side in the war, as they were close allies, and if they wouldn't then they would definetly highly help them in every way they could.
    There is also a possibilty that the Soviet Union would do a bit of a troll, and demand Eastern Poland for joining on thier side of the War.

    What if the decembrist revolt succeeded in overthrowing the tsar and founding a Russian republic in 1823, when Tsar Alexander decides to go to Kiev as planned instead of diverting to taganrog. I believe this would create a fascinating new balance of power in Europe, and could potentially lead to the American Civil War becoming a world War, being that in our own timeline Russia backed the union against British and French aggression, and if Britain and France were to intervene on the behalf of the confederacy I believe that this could potentially drag a more closely allied, and more modern/industrialized Russian republic into the conflict.

    When it comes to the Baltics, I think they would've sided with the west. The Soviets were seen as a threat, but so were the germans, as they had been the ruling class in the area since the days of the Livonian Order. Although if this arrengement was the case, the Baltics and the Soviet Union would be the same colour, which I think is a bit extreme. It would've been better if the Soviets were sort of a faction of their own with their own colour. Something worthy of note is that all of this speculation is made under the assumption that they'll pick a side at all, since like Finland, they initially wanted to stay out of the conflict.
    Other than that, I think this video was great!

    So the stronger French and UK direct involvement in the victory against the Germans would eventually secure them stronger positions on dictating post war terms eventually saving Poland,Hungary,Romania,Bulgaria,Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia from falling under communism but also splitting Germany on parts since France wanted to outrightly prevent them from rising as a great power again. Also the Soviets are still getting most of the Baltics and Italy retains it's control over Albania and Istria.

    The problem with your theory that the Germans would believe it would be a quick war in Russia is because it was based two things that didn't happen in your timeline. First, the easy victory over the Low Countries and France. And second, the abysmal performance of the Soviet Army in Finland. Before these events, Hitler was sure that the struggle against the Soviet Union might take years. After these events, He was riding high on his victories and the Soviet's catastrophes.
