How to finally win a war.

[sabotstarr]

OK, i HAVE searched, and do believe that this has not come up before.(If there is please feel free to rub it in my face)
So history tells us that when a nation, take Germany during WW2, attacks a nation south of it(France) They win the fight. But when that same nation attacks a nation to it's north(Russia) the outcome is either defeat or a humiliating victory(Russia Vs. Finland). So due to this historical duplication, wouldn't a nation (say Sweden, who is located in the very far north) attacking in the winter destroy all other opponents?
This all stems from my amazing (light bulb word) that if any of the nations around Finland and Sweden were to actually have a large army, they would of never been conquered by the Russians or Germans.
Please feel free to either comment, ridicule, elaborate or discuss this idea.

Do you have other pieces of info to back up your claim? And Russia is located east not north of Germany.

They have the ultimate defense for the unprepared for winter enemies during 1/4 of the year so no the guy in the B-2 bomber with a bunch of nukes is not going to be bothered from such temperatures.

I mean the fact that when winter came along, the armies from the south could'nt get used to fighting in the cold.

Fighting Canada is like punching a puppy. No ones going to do it.

Ha, it seems like it would only be a coincidence. There are more factors to take into account. Like nations tools and talent, their beans, bullets, and bandages. I doubt that place on a globe can decide whether a nation could take over the world or not. But that's a cool thing you spotted.

starting a war is more fun

The Russian winter killed off most of Germans and everyone else who tried to invade from the west. They only won in France by cutting through another country and attacking from behind.

Ya....re-reading puts that into account. But assuming that the countries were somewhat equally matched, i believe a more northern country could repel an attack or launch a more devastating attack than the more southern nation.

while not technically two nations: The North and The South of the American Civil War disproves this.

Ya but we didn't actually want to do that. Great Britian and France at the time were being ass to each other and made us fight for no god damn reason.
