I never understand why people always think America can take over the world. They're awful at war, and all the wars they go into by themselves they lose (Korea/Vietnam/Afghanistan etc.)
I mean FFS they couldn't even execute D.Day properly, and had to nuke Japan to submit.
At the end of the day America weren't even the 2nd strongest country in the world at the climax of the war, their economy was as shit as Britain's, their troops were in poor tactical locations (a lot in Europe, where antagonism towards other countries could quickly turn ugly for those troops). America had very few nukes, and both USSR and Germany had almost finished theirs, whilst Britain helped develop Americas. They didn't have particularly impressive numbers, nor did they excel in any one area. And the worse thing is, is that they would have lost almost all their troops stationed in Europe, and would quickly have multiple fronts opening up, with Naval bombardment from Britain, a front against Canada, and a front against Russia via Alaska and the west coast.
