What would have happened if the Nazis had formed a rump Nazi state in exile in south america? There was already a huge German ethnic population in Brazil, and lots of Nazi leaders fled there after the war. What would have happened if they took over one of the large unpopulated provinces and made it a Nazi German state in exile?
why didn't they do this?
Leo Wright
Because we woulda come down and fucked their shit up.
Justin Collins
Congratulations on posting the most retarded question on this board. If the Nazis had declared a government in exile, the Allies would have just followed them down and killed them all. How would they be able to put up any resistance from an unpopulated province? They would have no industrial capacity or manpower.

Nobody believed in Hitler anymore.

they would have had an army of millions of spics
also, would the allies have declared a war on a state just for following a nazi ideology? they let Spain be after the war despite being fascist, and Peron's argentina was openly sympathetic to nazis anyway and harbored many of them, the US didn't really mind.
Besides they would have been probably more focused on Russia by then than some larping rump state in south america.

>they would have had an army of millions of spics Why would the natives have any reason to fight for them? >would the allies have declared a war on a state just for following a nazi ideology? Yes, they absolutely would.
Leo Mitchell
They unironically wanted to do it in Argentina

While this is fun alt-history, every SINGLE aspect of this scenario is impossible. First of all, the nazis fled to SA because they wanted to hide in the first place. Establishing a government is literally the complete opposite of hiding. But whatever, let's say that the nazis change their mind and decide to do it. Then neither the militaries of South America (scared to shit of the US) or the general populace would stand FOR A SECOND for a nazi-led government or having literal nazis anywhere close to power. But whatever, let's say that the nazis have mind controlling powers and get the whole of South America rallied up behind them. The Allied powers, at least the US for sure, would come after them no doubt about it. We are talking about literally the most wanted men in the world leading a huge country. And the shitty SA militaries and economies have ZERO (0) hope of standing up even for a month against the US alone, whose military industry is at an all-time high.

It obviously would have been attacked by half the countries in the world

Politics of the Cold War wouldn't have allowed such a state to exist long. The new era was built upon having nuclear weapons, those that didn't were at the mercy of those that did. An SA nazi state would have been quickly dealt with by the US as it would have not had any external assistance from the USSR. This is why Rhodesia crumbled before South Africa, because the latter had nuclear weapons so countries were less willing to push them around (and SA crumbled only due to the US Congress enacting economic sanctions, over Reagan's Veto). Israel only managed to scrape by because of US support, and Pakistan exists because nobody wants to go in and deal with them.
Think about what a country needed in 1945 to be independent: nuclear weapons, fighter planes, and strategic bombers. This all costs a lot of money and isn't something the remains of the Luftwaffe could have easily built.

Brazil hated nazis after they sunk 5 civilian ships in two days for no reason They literally beat germans on the streets

>tfw no timeline where the Alpine Fortress was real and holds out for another year after the rest of Germany falls
Samuel Wilson
More likely he'd have been deposed and the Nazi leadership surrendering to Stalin in exchange for giving the USSR all of Germany. This would have created a much quicker crisis with the US forces in Germany, leading to a cold war arriving a few years sooner than it did in real life.
Brayden Ross
It would collapse internally or be obliterated by the allies
Jackson Myers
It would be violently obliterated by the Allied Powers (again).

>another year
Absolutely impossible.

You do realize OP's scenario happened, and it was called Peronist Argentina, right?
Mason Cook
Then we'll never hear the end of "Argentina is White".
