Germany should be an option. Their ideology really made it impossible for them to be sustainable long term.

I also heard that the guy who killed Hitler was the leader of Germany at the time.

Not necessarily. The war became a turning point for many of our established views today.

At the time anti-semitic views were common in the US, and Hitler didn't expect the UK to stand against him.

If the UK had stayed neutral, Germany might well have succeeded and anti-semitism may well have become normalised in western views.

Or maybe Spain, by staying out of the war and keeping Hitler on read they made it possible for the allies to actually gain enough power. Winning through pacifism.
