    Yeah the German and to some extent Japanese leadership had to go to war for the preservation of their own personal power.

    Hitler did a fake economic miracle by borrowing money at an incredible rate, so badly that German capitalism was bound to collapse again in just a couple years if Germany did not overthrow their debtors, enslave much of Europe, and steal gold.

    Of course Hitler's internal logic was "if I do nothing I definitely have to resign in disgrace, but hey if I kill 40, 50 million people then I have a chance!"
