@slmb_b Actually that isn't true. The Nazis had little interest in Occupying lands that they didn't think were part of Germania. Outside of Eastern Europe in which they wanted for resources, they had no interest in annexation of just about anywhere else, even Eastern Europe likely would of been turned into Puppet Regimes instead of being fully integrated into the Reich. Hitler believed for a nation to survive they required specific resources to be self sufficient. Germany lacked Oil and Farm Land. That is why he wanted Eastern Europe, and the Nazis had no plan on taking land beyond the Euro mountains in the East either. So they would of never had a common border, nor would the Nazis ever had a reason to ever go to war with Japan. Hitler was also very serious about honoring Alliances as well, even when they went against their own needs. The only time he ever betrayed any of his Allies is when they pretty much already betrayed him. Heck Romania and Finland in particular literally dropped out of the war and switched sides in most respects, Romanian switched sides, and used German Provided aircraft and Tanks against their former Ally. Finland dropped out of the war and forcefully arrested all German soldiers and military advisers in her territory, also betraying the Germans. If anything it was Germany's Allies who were the ones willing to betray. People use the German invasion of the USSR as how dishonest the Nazis were, but they never made an Alliance, only a none aggression pact. Guess who else made a none aggression pact? The USSR and Japan, in which Stalin broke in 1945 when he invaded Manchuria.
