Oil and food. Russia got a lot of it's oil from the area near Stalingrad and grew a lot of it's food in that region. By losing the battle of Stalingrad, and the followup battle of Kursk, Germany was going to lose WWII by running out of oil and food it could not get elsewhere.

The "main" reason 6th Army was defeated in Stalingrad was due to a MAJOR soviet counter offensive well to the north and south of Stalingrad which broke through the Romanian, Hungarian, Italian and possibly Spain's blue division forces holding those positions and then "encircling" 6th army in Stalingrad. Once surrounded, they were basically cut off from reinforcements and supplies, with their ammunition exhausted 6th army fought valiantly but defeat soon followed.

What are 3 events that led to the defeat of Germany?

The 1945 defeat of the Third Reich came due from multiple factors. The primary and fatal mistake of the Germans were repeating Napoleon's gamble by invading the Russian motherland. The Germans could not effectively supply such a wide line, and the ensuing Russian winter crushed them. The opening of the Western and North African Fronts through Allied Invasions, specifically the entrance of the United States in the War proved the second blow. The Soviet encirclement of the German 6th Army under Paulus at Stalingrad was another strategic event lending to defeat.
