What would have been different if Hitler had won World War II?

Soda drinks must be familiar to everyone. Nowadays, soda drinks cost only a few yuan a bottle, and everyone can afford them. There are quite a lot of varieties of soda drinks on the market, such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, Fanta, etc. Various, but Coca-Cola, Fanta, and World War II are related to each other.

Coca-Cola was accidentally invented by Dr. John Pemberton from Georgetown, USA in 1885. At that time, the United States issued a prohibition on alcohol, so Pemberton invented a dark syrup to replace alcohol. After he mixed the syrup with ice cubes, he accidentally added soda water. He tasted it and felt it was very exciting. The first Coca-Cola was born.

However, Pemberton’s son sold the patent rights to Coca-Cola for US$2.5 million. 40 years later, Coca-Cola was not only popular across the country, but also sold overseas. In 1929, Asia welcomed Coca-Cola The first batch of Coca-Cola arrived, and the Asian market was dominated by Coca-Cola.

As a country that likes sweets, Germany has become a loyal fan of Coca-Cola. The American Coke Corporation is also investing in building factories. At that time, in order to open up more sales in Germany, the United States used Hitler to promote it, and Hitler came to power. The slogan at that time was "One Nation, One Empire, One Head of State".

The slogan of German Coca-Cola is: ?One nation, one empire, a cup of Coke? Even the bottle opener was made into the symbol of the German party. In order to promote his own image, Hitler did not ban their production. , Coca-Cola developed in Germany together with Hitler.

But Coca-Cola’s lifespan in Germany was very short, only a few years. Because World War II broke out, the American Coca-Cola Company, in response to General Eisenweil’s call during World War II, ensured that every soldier could drink it anywhere. Get a bottle of Coca-Cola for 5 cents, no matter how much it costs, while withdrawing its branches in Germany.

This measure greatly increased the Coca-Cola market. It divided up nearly 70% of the market. Although the Coca-Cola factory in Germany was abandoned, some equipment was still left, and the Germans used these equipment to operate again. But due to a shortage of materials and syrup, they were unable to make exactly the same Coke.

So the Germans planned to use the remaining materials to make an apple-flavored soda, and named it Fanta. At that time, Germany’s economy was limited, and apple pomace was used to make Fanta. The apple taste was strong, but The taste was not bad, and Fanta began to replace Coke and became the favorite drink of Germans.

After the end of World War II, the German economy was hit again. In order to restore the economy, Germany launched Fanta abroad and competed with Coke for the market. In 1954, the Coke market fell into crisis for the first time. The novel Fanta The market began to be divided, but the next year the Coke Company modified the bottles, and the profitable market recovered.

However, according to German thinking, if Hitler had won the war, the Coke that once used him as a signature would probably not be produced, and Fanta's apple flavor would replace Coca-Cola.
