      How would that have happened? Nazi Germany only existed for 12 years…

          Their original plan was to have eternal peace after world domination and genociding away all other cultures. Many wars was really never the plan although in reality that would‘ve looked very different of course. You can‘t force a world order under one fascist regime for very long. People would have revolted constantly and the Nazis would‘ve tried to answer in the only way they knew how until the whole thing collapsed. It was doomed to fail but the plan really was long lasting peace after the one war, not endless wars.

          My family was from the North, but my dad was in the Army when I was a kid, and we bounced around to several bases in the South. When I got older, and talked to my parents about the Civil War, they were always adamant that the Southerners they’d known had never really surrendered, and truly believed that “The South Will Rise Again.”

          I thought it was just talk, but apparently not. Southerners were holding onto that dream for better than 150 years.
