Germany didnt lose the alliance....Germany had a non agression pact signed with russia which meant that russia wasnt allowed to attack Germany and vice-versa. But sure enough Hitler had alredy planned to invade russia and in a surprise attack Hitler broke the treaty and invaded. It affected their plans by Germany having to use much of its manpower on russia instead of on the other allies.....and it also lead to the defeat of the Nazis and in 1945, the Soviet Union took Berlin itself.

AnswerNazi Germany never had any intention of abiding by any alliance with Soviet Russia. The initial agreements between the two countries were only entered into by Germany for convenience. Hitler intended all along to spread eastward into Russian-held territories. However, he initially had to defeat his enemies in the West... France and Great Britain. Once this was completed, Hitler meant to invade Soviet Russia.

Soviet Russia provided raw materials and oil to Germany almost right up to the point in 1941 when Germany crossed the borders and invaded Russian territory. Unfortunately for Hitler and Nazi Germany, they hadn't secured their western front nor their weakend southern exposure before starting the war with Soviet Russia. The result was the Hitler's forces were trapped into fighting a multi-front war.

Eventually, the Allies were able to battle their way through Europe from the west and south pushing the Nazis ever backward toward their German homeland. The Soviet Russians overcame the Nazis on the eastern front and eventually pushed them back also. In May of 1945, all collapsed for Nazi Germany. The war in the European theater was over.

You seriously don't know? :(

Adolf Hitler, the head of the Nazi party, was put in 2nd command to the leader of Germany to shut him up because he wanted power, and he and the Nazis were violent and annoying. The leaders of Germany didn't expect him to actually do anything. They thought they could control him. But then, Germany's leader died, and Hitler was leader.

Hitler started the war with the support of the German people because, after WWI, Germany was broke, and they blamed it on the Jews, and other minorities. They started the war to kill all the minorities and to basically just rule the world.

Invading the Soviet Union, destroying Communism and establishing a vast German empire in Eastern Europe had been one of Hitler's main goals since the 1920s.
