While World War Two looks like it is about to end, the belligerent powers have vastly different goals for that end. Differences that may or may not prolong the war, will decide the survival of tens of millions of people, and the future fate of all of Humanity.

This episode covers the goals of the belligerents in February 1945. Goals that on the Allied side will be revised at the Yalta Conference, where Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin take decisions that continue to decide the fate of Humanity to this day in 2024. In a few days we will come out with a video covering the deliberations, and decisions at the Yalta Conference. It is the TimeGhost Army that enables us to do these deep dives into our common history.

I really like that you highlighted how the War in Asia is expected to go on for at least another year. To many histories write from the point of view that the ”August End date" with atomic weapons was already known. "Why are they fighting Japan in Burma in 1945? Obviously, they should know that a super secret american weapons system and a surprise soviet entry will happen in a few months" The people in charge do not know that. Everyone in Asia is operating under the assumption that Japanese forces will need to be defeated and pried out of each of their holdings in Asia one by one.

Right, how would they know about super secret American weapon? Vice President Truman did not know about it. My dad was in the Philippines training for the amphibious invasion of Japan. He was a coxswain of a landing boat. They were told to expect 70% casualties in the first hour. The saying there at the time was "the Golden Gate in '48 and the bread line in '49".

@@damascus21 That's the big question, really. People like to say that nuking two cities was the "lesser evil" compared to a long and brutal land war... but those were never the only two options. Japan is an island nation whose navy has effectively ceased to exist, and by then the other half of the war was over. It does, however, highlight that the war in the Pacific was never "necessary" for the US; it wasn't about survival or defence, it was about revenge, pure and simple. North America was never in any threat from Japan, certainly not invasion and for all practical purposes not shore/shipping harassment either, and the if the American public didn't want to get involved in Europe when the Germans were taking over nearly the whole thing, they certainly didn't care to fight for some obscure European colonies, or China, or random islands they've never heard of. Japan punched America in the face, so America followed them home, murdered them, their family, set their house on fire, then blew it up for good measure. That's the Pacific war in a nutshell.

​@@fortpark-wd9sxThe Japanese interregnum in the last three weeks in South East Asia was a fascinating aspect of the end. The Japanese Army was effectively commissioned to act on behalf of the British Crown during that period. The final surrender of Japanese forces in Malaya didn't occur until mid February 1946. A full six months after the bomb was dropped.

The previous war in Europe ended when both sides knew the Entente's victory was inevitable but before Germany was even invaded. The armistice saved a lot of lives, but was a factor in the rise of the NSDAP. This time, the Allied victory had to be total and Germany had to be clearly defeated.

It is interesting that he had fallen so far by this point that he doesn't even merit a mention during this episode's coverage of Axis strategic "thinking" in February of 1945. He knew his goose was cooked by this point as well. In January of 1945 he told the wife of an embassy press attache, "Seven years ago I was an interesting person. Now I'm little more than a corpse....yes, madam, I am finished. My star is fallen. I have no fight left in me. I work and I try, yet I know that all is but a farce...I await the end of the tragedy and strangely detached from everything, I do not feel any more an actor. I feel I am the last of the spectators."

I always find it funny when modern Stalinists talk up how much the USSR sacrificed to defeat Germany in WWII, and how they basically did most of the work by themselves. The funny part, at least to me, is how they ALWAYS just happen to leave out the parts in history where the USSR were seceretly and illegaly helping Germany rebuild its military might by allowing them to stay away from prying eyes while carrying out exercises to test which units, tactics, and theories would be most effecrive, even to the point of staging entire mock battles with fake canvas screen tanks on a truck or bicycle. It let them experiment with airplanes and learn with mock-divebombing runs, dogfights, etc. And IIRC was even the birthplace of the Luftwaffe's Infamous Fallschirmjägers. Then let's not forget the BIG one, the fact they actively worked together to invade and split Poland. Yeah they were still ideological enemies that were destined to come to blows eventually, but that doesn't deny the fact they occasionally worked towards a common goal and didn't mind assisting or being assisted by the other while they working towards it. They also try blaming USSR's casualties on the West for not opening a 2nd front sooner, despite the fact the West was already fighting on enough Front's to cover the whole globe. We were fighting in the skies over the UK, across the Atlantic, in the Mediterranean and North Seas, throughout the entirety of the North, central, and South Pacific with "D-Day" just being another month or two for them while island hopping, fighting even more U-Boats off the west coast of Africa and the east coast of the US, carrying out more amphibious landings in North Africa, Sicily, and Italy, India and Burma all the way up through Indochina and into China itself to team up with both sides or their currently paused Civil War, the Nationalist and Communist parties, etc... So it's pretty funny the West had ALL THAT they had to simultaneously deal with, meanwhile the mighty USSR, the great and unstoppable BEAR; needs us to, NO, DEMANDS we open a second front against Germany so the USSR can get some breathing room or something. And Remember, these were the same guys HELPING Hitler for the first Year an a Half of the War; and the same ones that refused to help us with, or declare war on Japan. Instead choosing to remain neutral to them until the USSR could finally attempt to swoop in and take as much land land for themselves as they could after we'd done all the work to defeat Japan.

A lot of the "sacrifices" the soviets made were due to their own poor decision making, an example of which being how cheap they made the T34, if they had actually spent the time and money making decent tanks instead of cutting corners, they wouldn't have had to make so many to keep up with the losses.

One mistake on Spartys part regarding Frederick the Great and the Seven Years War around 20:40: Frederick and Prussia did NOT end up with more territory after the war then before it. It was a "status ante bellum" peace treaty that ended the war in europe between austria and prussia. However Austria failed at achieving their goal of retaking Silesia which they had lost just a few years prior during the war of austrian succession to Fredericks Prussia. It was Austrias main war goal during the seven years war. Prussia was happy that they didnt lose anything at all with a status quo peace treaty. Also, Prussia wasnt broke yet at that point in time, Frederick still had enough money left to continue the war one potential year longer, however there was no army or soldiers to properly fight left that the money could buy. Prussia was bleed dry compleatly and all occupied territories had been looted clean(saxony). The money that was still in the war chest when the war ended would end up being used in reconstruction of the countryside after the war and to stabilize the Prussian currency again. Prussias economy by the wars end was compleatly dead and dry of any coin, it was pretty much a total war for Prussia by the end. Prussia would later on get a lot of land during the partitions of Poland in the later part of Fredericks rule.

In South East Asia and the Pacific, it’s Australia that’s the somewhat unknown quotient. Australia has captured British and Dutch colonies. In 1945 Australia is the world’s fifth strongest military force and it wants to see its region secure and under its influence. The Americans largely take over, but still, it’s Australia that occupies a third of Japan in command of Britain (and also for the Korean War) and leads the war crime trials against the Japanese. Sure it plays second fiddle to the Americans, which all but the Soviets do too, but Australia is very different, it hasn’t any debts to anyone in 1945, in fact America hasn’t paid all its bills on Reverse Lend-Lease, and it’s in control of a region that dwarfs most of the powers that existed before 1939. While the big three are strutting their stuff, it’s only a matter of months before reality sets in and it’s really the big two in a world that’s incomprehensible to the Europeans who have their heads stuck in the gears of 1939.

Just got done with Ryan's "Last Battle" and have Toland's "Last 100 Days", which I read many years ago in high school, and Erikson's two "Road To..." books on the way. Just in the mood to read on this time frame.

Riveting stuff. thanks. No kidding tho... I had an Uncle who was just like indie. Like when someone was trying to make a point he would mimic their gestures and point to the speaker and nod and you just never knew for sure if he was supporting or mocking. In the best possible sense of "mocking" that is.

I am not sure if it is KZbin or something else, but I never received a notification of this video and only noticed it while casually checking KZbin an hour after it came out.

It's YT's algos. They'd rather shove 40 minute-long shorts in your face than the videos you subscribe for and actually want to see.

Late comment, but another excellent video as the "war" is coming to an end. Would like to ask a question about this period, which involved a family member receiving the Medal of Honor. But in a different environment, if possible. Appreciated and thanks
