From A Bridge Too Far:
\\\"And at no point during the war did German troops control \\\"most\\\" of Europe. If you count countries that were allied with Germany (such as Italy, Hungary, and Finland), sure, but they weren\\\'t being controlled by German troops.\\\"
I would beg to differ. Germany occupied France, the Benelux, Norway, Denmark, Poland, the Baltic republics, Yugoslavia, Albania and Greece. Northern Italy, Hungrary, Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria were all puppet states by D-day, and if any of them asserted sovereignty the German army put those claims to bed. As they did when Hungary refused to turn over its Jewish population. I would say that even if the Eastern front had shifted in favour of the Soviets, the Germans still controlled most of Europe and were still able to defend without Allied assistance.
