Sure thing m8. Doesn´t sound like a bloody and prolonged campaign too me. During which you received massive american help.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinking_of_Prince_of_Wales_and_Repulse

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_off_Endau

And gee the RN would have protected the assets of the empire in Asia just fine...

>the germs in africa

You won (after massive landings of US troops that opened a second front btw) with higher casualties on a secondary front that wasn´t properly supplied or reinforced.

I bet in a situation where the germans are properly supplied and reinforced the outcome would just be the same without american help...

>we destroyed the french fleet for old times sake

Something not to be proud off.
>>
>>1664736
>we fuck the japs in burma
Irrelevant, especially when compared to Singapore

>the germs in africa
You opened an irrelevant front in the desert where you fought 80% of incompetent Italians and sometimes a few Germans
Bravo

>and we destroyed the french fleet for old times sake
You attacked a flottilla of 9 ships and destroyed 3 of them
The real French fleet of 75 ships in Toulon had to be destroyed by fucking Vichy French (German puppets) to save your sorry ass from invasion

It's not the fact you blasted frog but how you did it

When you take in account the number of ships present at Mers-El-Kebir, how many of them you actually managed to destroy and what happened in Toulon afterward, it really puts things in perspective

America pretty much single handedly won the Pacific theater while the Brits had the second most embarrassing performance in Asia after the Netherlands.

Sure we did, but overall we absolutely buttfucked the Japs.

Now tell me what did Britain actually do in WW2?

>pussied out during the Sudetenland crisis and tried pussying out when Poland got attacked too
>got kicked the fuck out of Scandinavia
>ran away with tail between their legs at Dunkirk, somehow spinned that into a success
>got absolutely murdered by Japan in the Asian theater

>piggybacked American troops and airforce during the invasion into Europe
>WE DID IT CHAPS, WE WON THE WAR!
>>
>>1665083
That's not saying much. Everyone was getting blitzed until mid-1942. The U.S. had the first victory toward pushing back the Japs (and simultaneously ensured that Australia could be resupplied) at Guadalcanal.

I thought China also had somewhat of a handle in it, distracting and detracting Japanese supplies that could've been used to reinforce their lines against the yanks.
>>
>>1665820
China distracting them didn't even matter. Even if they had those resources available, they would have to somehow get all of those troops and supplies across the ocean towards the lines where they're fighting the Americans.

And the problem with that is that they wouldn't be able to do that because the USN had already established naval parity/superiority in 1942 and were already sinking troop transports that got anywhere near towards the fighting like at Guadalcanal. IJN supply lines were already thin and any merchant vessels or troop transports would just get eaten up by submarines or aircraft.

The war effort relied on

>american industrial power
>russian army and manpower
>british naval superiority

If one of these three things had been taken away, it is unlikely that the war would have ended as quickly as it did - or maybe not at all in the allies favour.

The Brits would have lost their colonies, had not the US been there.

The US and British would have had to step up and send a lot, a looooot more troops if the russians had not been there - most likely they would not have been able to focus on two theaters at once with any great success.

The Mediteranean and North Africa would have fallen to the Axis had it not been for the British

Until the US Navy got involved. Indian Ocean was pretty irrelevant anyway. Royal Navy was so cucked they had to rely on getting 50 WWI-era US destroyers or collapse. Logistically the RN was utterly dependent on the US merchant marine. Pretty sad desu

Actually it was never the case of the allies winning, but one of the Axis losing. Hitler invading Russia was the stupidest thing ever and they carried it out like a bunch of idiots to the letter.

Had Hitler authorised winter equipment no later than September and called his armies to dig in, he'd have had a great stalemate for years and if the yellow monkeys joined in to fight USSR instead of the U.S. they even had slim chances of breaking the ruskies.

Even if that would've failed you could just dig in, leave some troops, move back, dig in, repeat until you've created a frontline of trenches 50kms wide and Ivans would need those 20 millions to just break through, bleeding all the time.
