Several reasons:
- Building up and maintaining a great army is very expensive for a country. The more the other countries can stall and delay a war, the less money and resources the first country will have to fight the war with.
- If the other countries started strengthening their armies too much/too obviously, then the first country might see that as a reason to attack, while the coming enemy is still weak.
- Going to war is always a huge decision and a huge committment. It has a high price, in every way you can measure it. People get killed, stuff gets destroyed. Countries can't trade as they used to. etc etc.
Nazi Germany .
Italy and japan were the allies of Germany
The allies set up a military government after the war and the Soviets were given control of what became East Germany.
The allies started by liberating countries Germany occupied early in the war. then there was a smash of Germany as the Western Allies and the Russians pour in on both sides, causing Germany to not be able to get any resources which made lots of citizens starve. Then the Russians invade Berlin causing Germany to surender.

No. Germany and Japan have never exercised political or military control over one another. Germany was instrumental, though, in helping Japan to modernize and the two countries were strong allies in World War II.
No 'bilateral type of allies'. Both Bulgaria and Germany are members of the NATO. That is their ally
Germany's main allies were Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire.
