You are apparently unaware of the part the USSR played in WWII and how they defeated Germany, not quite single-handedly but did the bulk of the damage

I'm confident that Ann is fairly well read in her history...you seem to have a tendency to presume by the bushel load. Surely, Russia played a very large roll in defeating the Germans, but what the hell do you think western Europe would have looked like without US forces checking the Red Tide?

Since "idle conjecture" seems to be greatly in play....what if all the native Americans had used the heads of the Europeans to play football with like the Calusa indians of Florida did? While we are at it...what if they had been advanced to the point of repelling the invaders with superior weapons and technology?

The USA delayed involvement in WWII in a large part because we had just democratically elected a President with staying out of it as part of his platform. It something that I have found much fault with in the past, but not to the point of pining over a long gone & flawed empire.
