History of Europe

The reason Germany failed to conquer the Soviet Union in 1941 was delay of expeditions by six weeks?

This is not true. Germany's failure to conquer the Soviet Union in 1941 was due to several factors, including:

* The vast size of the Soviet Union and the harsh winter conditions.

* The stubborn resistance of the Soviet military and civilian population.

* The failure of the German high command to adapt to the changing situation on the ground.

* The opening of a second front in North Africa in April 1941.

The delay of the German invasion by six weeks was not a major factor in its failure.
