What is the one thing you'd change in history?

[Conscentia]

I've done some more thinking on this thread, and I've decided to change my statement.
I'd make Stalin and Hitler become allied with each-other during World War 1-2. They could easily conquer the world together.
I'm sure that Stalin would be happy with all of Asia and Africa, Hitler would be happy with Europe and North America, and they could contemplate how to share the rest of whats left.

Hitler and Stalin hated each other.
Hitler's plan for lebensraum involved conquering Russia, exterminating it's entire native population, and replacing them with German farmers.

so I gather either Stalin isn't a communist or Hitler isn't a Nazi. Because otherwise this will never work, which would be a great thing for the rest of the world.

Stalin was a communist, and Hitler was a Nazi.

Just because they had different political ideologies doesn't mean they wouldn't be compatible. I have friends who range from Fascists to Anarcho-Communists and we all get along fine.

your friends are also not a pair of paranoid megalomaniacs who openly stated multiple times that they wanted to exterminate each other.

you have no proof of that

This is all hypothetical. Besides, if they could become allies with similar goals prior to them wanting to kill each other, then there would be no reason for them to hate each other.

there was also no reason for Stalin to kill off half his officer core or fear doctors but that didn't stop him.
plus they probably would have blown it anyways seeing that they both insisted on running their respective armies despite having almost zero understanding or knowledge of strategy between them.

America was newer under any serious threat during WWI. Germany newer had any chance of sponsoring or performing any attack on your continent. In fact, even joining WW2 in Europe was pointless from your perspective. It's just that Japan and Germany were sort of in a package and having one hit you meant you also had the other foolishly wanting to take a shot.

Why do you insist on consistently misspelling the word 'never'?

Because I feel like it.
