Germany is the size of just 1 US state and took on the world and was

....after building up its military and industrial base for a number of
years, then attacking everyone around them in a cowardly move (which
made up all of the "wins"). Then, when they could have just assimilated
the rest of western Europe, they attacked Russia (dumb) and lost the
war, despite having a hellaciously good defensive position in the
Channel.

....and they got beat, basically, by a bunch of jeeps, trucks, and
cheaply-made tanks, mostly from a country that had a fraction of the
German industrial capacity at the start of the war, and no effective
military. Which they built in a couple of years, learned how to use,
and proceeded to kick the crap out the Germans with.

When it comes to actual fights, instead of sneak attacks, the Germans
are, well, really bad at war.

Yeah, those Germans... inventive, but so stupid when it comes to
practical stuff. They'd do so much better if they'd learn how to wage
wars before starting them.

Then after defeat, your VICTORIOUS and SUPERIOR
armies raped the entire German nation for all of its technology


....that didn't do much good for over a decade. Too bad those dumbass
Germans spent all of their time working on cool but prohibitively
expensive "vengeance weapons" and spent a *lot* of effort killing off a
few million of their own citizens, instead of learning how to actually
fight wars or organizing the defense of their continental redoubt.

What is it about Germany that keeps them from raising decent leaders?

It's like giving the school bully an RPG.
