How do you think the world would be like if Adolf Hitler succeded?

[syphonmax]

Well first I'm not really sure if this is the right place but what the hell it will be moved if it isn't.

For those of you who don't know who the guy is go to this site:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler

Anyway for my GCSE I picked history and being half German I wanted to learn about the country a bit more, but then I learned more about Adolf Hitler and his plans.

It got me thinking how would the world be like if he succeded in his plans. (If you don't know what they were look in the link above)
What if he did wipe out all the Jews?
What if another race of people were on his target list?
What would have happened if the Nazis weren't stopped?, but instead they took over the world?
Would there be peace in the world or would it be total chaos?

So how do you think the world would be like if Adolf Hitler succeded? I'm just really curious.

Spoiler

I'm still trying to figure out the German side of my family, the history and everything. Hell for all I know I could be related to the guy :sad:

For one thing, people like you and me would be NON-EXISTENT. Because, Hitler wanted a Arian Race, people over 6 feet, with sandy or blonde hair, and white skin. The world would be a VERY different place. However, I think Hitler woulda destroyed himself eventually. Somehow, sometime, somewhere, deliverance would have risen up, and overthrown his evil empire. Besides that, their aren't that many Arians in the world (compared to all the other mixtures out there). I don't think he would have stopped until he was satisfied that he'd wiped out everyone that wasn't arian. I would say there would still be total chaos. Hitler was a total Despot. Eventually his own people would recognize that or He'd drive his empire to it's own destruction.

Hitler was nuts, even the people closest to him thought that.
He had brain damage from syphilis there were many attempts to overthrow him and eventually someone on his own side would have killed him in his own sleep or something, we'd still have a nazi world, just a slightly less extreme nazi world.

Up until 1937, Hitler considered the British and Spanish Aryans.  Infact he still considered us aryan during the war, but would probably have killed a good chunk of us off as a sign that we shouldn't dick with him again.

And no, being non-blonde / blue eyed wouldn't have you killed off, just pushed to dye your hair. Only if you had a mental disability, physical deformity or wore a skull cap would you be killed.

wait you just learned about that? wow... sad... and i doubt your related to him

 

[syphonmax]

Before I just knew a little about his plans but I now know it in full detail and omg its sick......Hitler was barking mad. Learning about the extermination camps almost made me cry.
But we dont really know how loyal the Nazis were going to be to him. If his plan did succeed then most of us would probably not even be here, not sure if I would be its kind of strange being the only person in my school who is German (half German). There were plots by Hitlers followers to overthrow him but I dont think any of them succeeded and apparently Hitler was half Jewish but was never proved.

And I still cant find out about my German side to tell you the truth its worrying.

 

[PINEDAXP]

I honestly doubt you being related to him... why? *cough* race *cough* you could be, but a very, very distant blood line...

I'm an hemophiliac, so I could be related to some Russian Zar from a distant past, and then again, it'd be a very very distant blood line, not even enough to call me a relative of any sort...

Now, Hitler wasn't "nuts" he just had a way of seeing the world (not that it was the best) and he wanted to go with it, in fact he had the balls to do so... even if it was so terrible and sad...

If he succeeded? Many people would be dead, the rest of us just would be working for them, because not all of us would be dead, who would do the heavy duty? Exactly...

Actually, Hitler was insane and unreasonable by any modern definition.  Almost nobody, especially the perpetrators of some of the most atrocious acts in history, thinks they're doing something evil.  In their own warped version of reality they are doing what's best for themselves and for humanity as a whole.  They just happen to be very wrong from everyone else's point of view.  It's very difficult for people to act against their own internal ethics, but it's relatively easy to have internal ethics that are completely opposite those of a "normal" person.

Anyways there is some great fiction on the subject.  Philip K. Dick's "The Man in the High Castle" comes to mind.  I'm actually preparing to run a pen and paper roleplaying game that poses this exact question, set in an alternate 1970s where the axis won WWII.  Once I get the website up for it I'll link it if the thread is still active.

Well, I actually think Hitler was an incredible leader. He brought Germany from being really poor into one of the biggest empires again. What I found interesting was when the Allies sent planes over the concentration camps but they never bombed it even though the prisoners in the camp didn't mind dying they just wanted to have revenge, but when the planes just went by they were shocked.

Hitler was insane he wasn't even blond and blue eyed and I don't think he was willing to dye his hair. The next great leaders of Germany would be the kids who went to the special Hitler schools apparently. Do you think that there would be any religions if he succeeded. He was burning down books and what's really amazing was that he made Nazims a religion. Instead of a cross, crescent moon or any other religious symbol he would have a sword and instead of the bible, qu'ran or any other religious books he would have people read 'Mein Kampf' (My Struggle)

I also found out that they are already making a FPS game out of this. It's called Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty but I've already played the demo and it didn't interest me.

Like Nixon, Hitler did great things for his nation, but did some fucked up shit. No really, don't EVER trust a man named after an Italian pasta side-dish as your leader.

 

[$t3v0]

I was just about to vote for John Garlicbread as my local governer. Thanks for the advice!

 

[Aepriz]

Wel there would be a lot more jews .
And IF everything succeded .. wel only people with blue eyes and blond hair would stil be here ,
Wich isn't a lot .

(Then to think Hitler himself didn't qualifie xD).

 

[kumoKami]

You mean there wouldn't be a lot of Jews
So yeah that prolly includes me D:

He was a good leader, but at what cost? He used his leadership to lead an entire race into thinking anything other than them should be destroyed; and that's not very good. He was brainwashing most people, too. I refuse to believe there would be over a certain amount of people who would willingly submit to that route.

Did you just fucking compare Nixon to Hitler? Talk about fucked up perception.

And I just realised- you're doing your GCSEs and have only JUST heard of Hitler?  What the heck is wrong with you?

 

[syphonmax]

I didnt say I have never heard of him I knew a lot about him but I didnt really know why he killed Jews and sterilize criminals (xD) I am learning about the whole thing in full detail at the moment so I at the moment I know so much about the guy its creepy just saying his name

Would there be peace in the world or would it be total chaos?

there'd be much more peace than there is now. theres be no racism (lol because there'd be no other races), thered be an absolute rule over the entire planet, so there'd be either less war, or no war at all (given he actually conquered the planet, which was not going to happen anyway), exterminating THAT many people would greatly decrease the world population making natural resources last that much longer... and his people loved him so a good number of people would be happy.
so in that sense, yeah the world would probably be a better place.

bare in mind that's only looking at the positive effects.

there'd be some obvious downsides to having a ruthless leader like hitler commanding an entire planet.

He would of been dead by now anyway.. its called aging.

 

[syphonmax]

Yah, but don't forget about those kids that were going to take over Germany once he died or his son (if he had one not sure, but if he didn't then he'll need to roll in the hay a lot more)

 

[holloway]

or his son (if he had one not sure, but if he didn't then he'll need to roll in the hay a lot more)

Don't want to spoil the ending for you or anything but....

 

[Cruelty]

no, hitler doesn't have and kids. :p
