Italy doesn't count, they sucked in their own way. Had they been on a level with Germany, Grece would have been screwed.

I bet if Greece was the size of Britain we could have taken them on all by ourselves. After all we stopped a country 6 times larger than us.

I take it you're referring to the Italians?

Come off it, the Vatican could have beat those wimps. At least they were smart enough to surrender as soon as the Anglo-American forces arrived in Sicily.

Maybe they were bad fighetrs but they were still 6 times larger.

And Greece got screwed after Germany had to come and finish what the Italians could not.

[Ecthy]

But Germany got screwed there as well, think Crete.

Are you still pestered by that guy?

[Bereta_Eder]

What guy?

[Dan Severn]

The bad guy.

But still it was one Great Power against the other (you).

If Germany was purely attacking Greece you wouldn't have stood a chance.

Anyway my original point being that yes, one on one Germany would have defeated England. However England has been clever enough to forge alliances to protect itself. Germany relied on itself. Had Germany allied up properly it could have won the war. That being waht makes England better.

the one who pestered you

and where's the thread where you gave info about that EU student project thing? I'm still interested.

[Bereta_Eder]

Come on Sagacious, who would have allied with the Nazis?

Ok the Italians are known to make mistakes in judgement in the past

But seriously, there was democracy versus totalitarianism.

You didn't have to do anything to gain allies. (which were not "yours" of course )

[Ecthy]

give me an eu link, please

Anyone who would benefit. I'm sure the Turks would have helped to invade Greece if given sufficient incentives.
