    “Germany was split up” indeed.
    The western side had no consequences for it, on the contrary, they rehabilitated the nazis and kept them in positions of power.
    On the Soviet side they got their deserved reward. What you call ‘screwed’? Japan still had a lot of fascists and extreme-right to this day, even leading the country.

      By the eastern axis I meant Hungary Romania and Bulgaria. Japan got nuked but had it alright after since it was under the US.

        They were booming and becoming a world power, the reason why the US wanted war with them.
        I wouldn’t call getting nuked, having to rebuild their infrastructure and economy from zero , and now as a vasal state to the US “had it alright” either.
