Why was the bitzkrieg effective?

Blitzkrieg, or "lightning war," was effective due to its fast-paced and coordinated strategy that combined air support, armored divisions, and infantry to rapidly penetrate enemy defenses. The element of surprise, along with the use of mechanized forces, allowed German forces to encircle and overwhelm opponents before they could mount a cohesive defense. This approach disrupted communication and supply lines, leading to swift victories and significant territorial gains during the early years of World War II.
