| - Russia is the only European nation which suffered more casualties in ALT than in OTL. Because of the Soviets aggression in the East against Japan and China and because of the effective defensive strategies Rommel used in Europe, an additional 2 million people died and 3 million were wounded than in OTL. Despite this extra loss, the soviet Union finished the war in a position of great strength. It incorporated Manchuria into the S.S.R. and held Finland, Norway, Mongolia, and Korea as satellite nations. After the war, Russia was not eager to expand further in Europe or Asia. It was able to hold the territory it gained during the war, and was able to exert significant political influence throughout the world. Russia remained fearful of another invasion from Germany and all its post-war policies should be viewed in this anti-German light.
