Is Germany better off having lost WWII?
I suppose the question is complex. Had they won WWII, Europe, and perhaps Eurasia would have been unified under German rule in the 40's or 50's. Would they have continued the war until they controlled everything from the Atlantic to the Pacific?
However, in losing the war, the Nazis were expelled, and they were able to rebuild a strong economy.
So, 70 years later, how the the Germans feel about the war? Do they consider the way the war ended the right way? Is Germany better off?
