re: What would’ve happened if Britain had surrendered in WWII?

Germany’s military wasn’t as strong as they would have liked you to think. The whole operation was a house of cards led by a nut bar who meddled with every minut military detail Assuming Britain falls before America could get in the war, the US would have had all of its might in the pacific, quickly ending the war against Japan. Once Japan was defeated, we would have re evaluated our stance in Europe and likely joined the guerella fighters in France and Britain. All this while the Soviets were deep dicking the Germans. Germany didn’t have the men, weapons, and resources that they led people to believe they had. Neither did Russia for that matter, but the Ruskies would have overwhelmed with numbers

If Britain falls, so does the Dutch government in exile, which means Japan can negotiate with Germany for access to the East Indies oil fields. The Pacific war may not take place at all.

Another interesting though is the timeline for American victory in the Pacific. Would the full force of the American ground forces speed up victory in that theatre? If so, how many more casualties do the Americans suffer in the Pacific by having to attack the main island with an amphibious assault? In this scenario the timeline for the Manhattan project remains unchanged.

Then Rommel and The Afrika Korp would have taken Egypt and the Suez Canal... That would have cut off all the Mediterranean and all Southern Europe.
The US would have lost a staging point for invasion... No way the USA could launch an invasion from the US.
Russian would have never had that second front.
