Slow board is slow. Advertise this, guys, I'd love a true history board if it can get more than one post a day.

Anyways, to start some discussion, I'm an amateur historian writing an alternate history of WWII. What, in your opinion, are the biggest potential turning points in the war? Examples would be Churchill never being elected, success of operation typhoon, Germans ignore Stalingrad, US carriers don't leave for training exercise and are sunk at PH.

The Soviet Invasion of Poland is a key point.. England and France declare war with Germany over the Nazi Invasion, but ignore the Soviet Invasion.

What if England and France declared war on the USSR as well?

Britain would have to be dumb to invade the USSR over Poland. Churchill himself at the time the Soviets moved into the eastern portion said that it was necessary as a buffer against German troops. Furthermore the members of the League of Nations did not recognize it as an aggressive act, unlike the case of the Soviet invasion of Finland months later when the League immediately denounced the USSR and expelled it from the organization.

Rudolf Hess completes his flight over the Atlantic and somehow brokers the deal of an alliance between the UK and Germany against the Red menace, the USSR.

>Oswald Mosley wins the British elections before the war and eventually teams up with Hitler and Mussolini

>Hitler doesn't decide to invade the Soviet Union

>the entire North-American continent doesn't exist or is still inhabitated by natives (I know this is a weird one but since you're trying to write an alternate version of WWII anyway it would be interesting to think about what would have happened to Europe and Asia if the US never existed and thus could have never fought against the nazis).

>the Soviet Union never existed and instead the Russian Empire is still intact and ruled by the Romanov family. You get to decide what side they take during the war.
