The German armies had defeated France, Luxembourg, Holland, Belgium, Norway, Denmark, and Poland. Austria and Czechoslovakia had already fallen. With France defeated, Germany turned to the last fighting obstacle left, the last beacon of hope in Europe, a tiny island, Great Britain.

Over the next six weeks, Hitler planned the invasion of Britain, codenamed, Operation Sea Lion. The Lufwaffe, the German Airforce, was ordered to focus on Britain's Airfields, Factories, and Fighters. The full 2,000 German planes continuously hunted down and destroyed Britain's planes, until September, with the defeat of RAF, and air-superiority.

Following this, the Lufwaffe were ordered to hunt down the British home-fleet base, where they bombed and crippled the once proud navy, leaving Britain helpless. Over 150,000 German troops, and 4,000 panzer tanks crossed the English channel, and began landing.

Following the successful establishment of a beach-head in southern England, the Kriegsmarine began ferrying around 50,000 troops a day to Britain, and soon, the Germans had control of most of Britain, overrunning Edinburgh, Scotland, Wales, and Burmingham, and drawing a noose around London.

Finally, in November, the German army marched into London, and the shocked British people could only watch as Britain. once the most powerful nation in the world, fell in two months. With the defeat of Britain, Germany gave Japan clearance to conquer the Asian possessions, while Italy took its African possessions.

With England defeated, Germany made plans for it's third blitzkrieg, against the Soviet Union. At first, the generals were shocked, but Hitler convinced the Japanese and Italians to participate, and with the full force of all seven Axis powers(Hungary, Slovakia, Romania, and Bulgaria joining after Britain's fall), the combined force of around 7 million troops were ordered to move to assault positions, Germany in Poland, Italy in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Slovakia, and Romania in Bulgaria, and lastly Japan in imperial Korea.

Stalin, desperate to keep the peace, asked Hitler what was going on, he said the he was practicing exercises. This managed to convince Stalin, but on may 6th, 1941, the Germans and Japanese launched their offensives at the same time.

Following Germany's lead, Italy invaded two days later, followed in another day by Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia. The quick blitzkrieg forced the russians to divide troops between the west and eastern fronts, and even their strong army was no match, as a combination of poorly trained officers, surprise, and air power caused the Axis blitzkrieg to capture vast areas of Soviet territory in a matter of weeks.

Japan, to prevent troops from getting to the west quickly, destroyed the trans-siberian railway, and hunted down and killed all Soviet soldiers, and siezing their tanks. As the two sides wore on, the Axis powers redrew the maps of Asia, Africa, and Europe. Germany was given Europe, and 2/3 of the Soviet Union, Italy Africa, Japan Asia, and Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, and Bulgaria receiving small empires of their own. Each side was given a part of the Arabian Peninsula do to Oil reserves.

By September 1941, the Soviet Union was conquered, and Africa, Asia, Europe and Asia lost their freedoms to the tyranny of the Axis Powers, but still, there was one global power who presented a danger, the United States.
