He also wanted the oil that the Russians had, and a port in the black sea.
Plus he hated Communists and thought it was a giant Jewish plot.
And yes he's 15, and you're 19, and I'm 22. What the hell does age matter? I know tons more than mostly 40-50 year olds, and I can be outclassed by someone who is 16. It's whoever has studyied the most.'You don't make friends with salad'

we have all really strayed away from the main point here.
I say neither Germany nor the USA can be called the most alpha
Germany: through all my defending of it, the fact is they still lost, and didnt hold power very long
USA: magnificant, but not long enough
back to Rome, you would have to give in to them, they held dominance for the longest time

There was a huge problem when it came to taking Berlin.
The American generals on the ground were poised to march into the city, but at the presidents urging, Eisenhower chose to hold back and allow the Russians to enter the city first, to take credit for the overtrow of the German army on their own turf. That does not detract from what Russia did during WWII, as without their stiff oposition on the Eastern Front, the allies would not have been able to take out Germany.
What really did in Germany was the brutal Russian winter, which handed an as s whoopin' to Napoleon as well.
The Russians were badas s in the sense that they were able to do what they did, while being sorely under equipped on the ground.

SS was the special force commandos deployed by the Germans for every battle.
Per battle, a certain percentage of its troops deployed, represented the SS.
Against the Canadians - 47% SS
Against the British - 24% SS
Against the Americans - 14%
Canadians did amazing in both world wars.......jus sayinBench 365
Deadlift 385
Front Squat 225

Let me get this straight.
You believe he was "pissed" because he couldnt break a country with 1k fighter planes and 300-400k soldiers so he decided instead to attack a country that possessed 5k fighter planes, 7k tanks and 5m soldiers?
Strong logic.
The story is alot deeper than you make it out to be.

I don't see it that way, he was just one of hundreds of military leaders throughout history who sought to conquer new lands if you look at it from a truly neutral perspective.

he is no differnt than atilla the hun or julius caeser or alexander the great. They too invaded and killed opposing countries civilians in an effort to expand their countries.
