| The biggest mistake may have been that all the Axis powers had different war aims and goals . Because of this it was not possible for the Axis powers to start a war against Soviet Russia on two fronts , allowing their forces to concentrate against the Germans late in 41 . The Japanese had been at war with Russia in 1905 , and up till late 41 they still thought it was possible that they might be threatened by an invasion through Asiatic Russia . No attack on Pearl Harbour , no American declaration of war ..and the Russian's defeated .....maybe the Japanese could have gained vaste influence over Asia by diplomatic means with the whole of a German Europe behind her ....Britain ....well Britain would have had to tow the line or suffer starvation by sea .......Italy ....well give Italy a small piece of Antarctica or something for her efforts ....
