Germany's ultimate defeat resulted in a string of small failures: * It failed to win a decisive victory at Dunkirk, allowing 345,000 troops to escape. * It failed to win the Battle of the Atlantic, which meant that * It failed to win the Battle of Britain because it attacked cities instead of airfields and radar. * It invaded Russia without preparing for Winter War. * It declared war on the US. * It continued to use its faulty Enigma encryption system.

It stated the war. then it had two fronts.

Why did the Germans lose faith in Hitler at the battle of Stalingrad?

The German campaign to seize Stalingrad in 1942 ended as a major stunning defeat for the German Army. It was the first noticeable defeat for Hitler since he took power in 1933, and the most apparent military defeat of the German Army since the war began in 1939. However, it is not accurate that Germans lost faith in Hitler because of this. It is more accurate to say that Germans began to think that Hitler was not invincible, and that ultimate victory in the war was not certain. Germans still supported Hitler & their nation to the fullest, however doubt of the eventual outcome of the war began to enter their minds. Although eventually by 1945, many Germans had lost faith in (and many more their enthusiasm for) Hitler as their leader, they never really stopped supporting Germany during the war. The threat of Russian invasion & occupation led most Germans to resist the Soviets to the very (bloody) end of the war.


How did the Russians defeat the Germans at stalingrand?

The Russians defeated the Germans with the blessings of Ol' Man Winter and the follies of Adolph Hitler. The Germans were frozen, starving, dying from the cold and lack of food and supplies. At the end of the Stalingrad Battle a bunch of simple grenades did the trick. Many Germans were taken prisoner as they surrendered in defeat. Adolph Hitler can be blamed for the demise of the German forces failing. He refused to let them quit and he would not send more supplies.

What two countries halted Germany's advance in Russia?

Well, I suppose this could be construed as being Germanys allies Russia and Italy, who were holding the flank whilst the Germans were bogged down in Stalingrad. When the Russians launched their counter offensive, their lines disintegrated. As such the Russians then outflanked Stalingrad, and the rest is history. Italy and Rumania were a contributory factor in Germanys ultimate defeat
