Another World War 2 thread but can't seem to find answers elsewhere. I have always been fascinated with the events in World War Two but I'm more interested in the "what could've been", Germany went to war against the Soviet Union but what was their end game? I've heard of "Generalplan Ost" and "Lebenstraum" which was the colonization and annexation of central and Eastern Europe including western Russian territories, but what was to be the fate of the Soviet Union had the Germans won. Clearly the German high command had a plan because you don't go into war without one. The Germans could never occupy the entire country so would they just install a puppet government or is there something else? Answers on the internet just say shit like "probably they be taking some territory idk"

Pic related was the only good example of what Lebenstraum could've looked like but no idea what the other shit is, the artist might just be an alternate history larp

They wanted to genocide most of the local populations in Eastern Europe and then import regular Germans to live there

>genocide most of the local populations
That's a meme.
>import regular Germans
Initially, but no Germans actually wanted to live there. Germany started to advertise a program with full incentives for Germans to move into conquered Ukraine and the Baltics but literally nobody wanted to. So they expanded the program to the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway as well but all they could muster up was a couple hundred wannabe settlers, the entire thing plan was probably scrapped long before the war ended.

Are there more pics of maps or just faction symbols or whatever of sides fighting in WWII.
USSR fought on both sides but only as "enemy of my enemy" and really they had their own plans and agenda. Most pictures I could find simply throw the Soviets on the same side as the rest of the Allies but I think it's an oversimplification.

Yes, however that is not what I'm asking, I am asking what was to be the fate of the entire Soviet Union. Not just Eastern Europe. Would it all be colonized and the entnic population genocided? Puppet government? Or man in the high castle style where it's just a buffer zone between Japan with no government?

Poland is not the size of Russia

No idea what you even mean

Murder/Relocate most of the population and then send Germans to live there.
Like Manifest Destiny in America but with Germans.
>>
This is the Soviet Union before the invasion
>>
Germans plan to take pic related.
Now what do they do with the rest. I'm not asking about Eastern Europe, I know what happened to Poland. Maybe there is no positive known answer

Relocate where? There are 200,000,000 people, where the fuck do they relocate them
>>

The Urals, a ditch with a bullet in the back of their head, or a concentration camp
