Document Summary
Germany had reached the maximum of expansion in the summer, until stopped by. Allies learned how to fight the germans in italy. December 1943 roosevelt, churchill and stalin met in teheran for the teheran conference, how they were going to win the war. Yalta in the black sea, another conference. The nazis were encouraged to fight harder because they knew they would be. Europe was very badly destroyed after the war, badly damage in germany, demilitarized. Most of the ports, railways, bridges were destroyed. Russia wanted the nazis to pay for the damage, britain did not want that in fear that the east countries would turn to communism. Roosevelt thought germany should pay in goods and services (weapons, food, etc. ), this would be different than wwi which caused a lot of economic problems for europe. Capacity expanded for the making of goods, although there was not demand for them because they could not afford them.
