>>533327174Their failure to hold the lines around Stalingrad contributed greatly to its failure. But yes, of course Romania would be better off.

>>533327259Ironically an Axis Poland would likely secure victory for Hitler.In December 1941, the Germans were short of 5 divisions and around 100-200 tanks, a solidly mobilized and well prepared Polish army would be capable of mustering around 50-60 divisions and 1000-1500 tanks, which would likely sway the balance on the Eastern front and secure victory.
>>533327913Not that the Poles would allow this.
I doubt there would ever be a Romania at the rate germans were palming our land and giving it to others. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Vienna_Awardhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Craiovahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pact#Consequences_in_Finland,_Poland,_the_Baltic_States_and_Romania

>>533327174>Would Romania be a global power today if operation Barbarossa succeeded?Had Barbarossa succeeded Romania would have been a protectorate/province/region of the Reich.
>>533327309>let Romanians and Italians protect a 2,000 mile long supply line with your largest army at the very end of it>strip the army of its accompanying tank army and any armor of its own to go seize the oil, making a breakout impossible if anything goes wrong>Halder points that out>loses his job
