It is impossible to say what might have happened if Britain had made a deal with Hitler.

Maybe, but let me take a crack at it.
Without the burden of a two-front war, Operation Barbarossa succeeds and Hitler pounds Stalin to dust.
Germany links up with Japan in Asia, Italy subdues Africa, they take the Middle East.
With unlimited supply of energy and manpower the Axis faces down America where suicidal pacifist forces make it impossible to rearm in a timely manner
A new dark age dawns
The End.

I disagree with the Soviet part. Operation Barbarossa did in some part succeed but Hitler’s SS so antagonized the Russian people that they began to fight the Nazis in a truly vicious partisan way.

I think what would have happened is that the Soviets and the Nazis would have beat themselves to death on the Russian steppes and there would have been no iron curtain.

We would have beaten the Japanese in Asia, and started the desert campaigns across North Africa into Italy just as we did.

It would have been more difficult, but we would have eventually won against them.

Sounds much like “The Man in the High Castle” on Netflix
