The fact that England was an island prevented the Germans from winning the war in 1940 after winning the Battle of France. The great expanse of the Soviet Union and the harsh winter prevented the Germans from prevailing in its initial blitzkrieg onslaught in 1941. The relative remoteness of the United States permitted the US arsenal of democracy to produce war goods without harassment from enemy bombardment. Furthermore, its distance from Japan ensured that the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor would not prove to be 'decisive' (it did not compel the US to sue for peace) since the Japanese could not physically invade the West Coast.
