For PanzerJaeger, comparing the armies of WW2

[Sarmatian]

Well, then how can it be that the german army ran out of men, killed far more russians and was still outnumbered 20:1 toward the end? Did all those germans just surrender by the millions?

I was talking about situation in winter 1941. Later another front in Italy was formed which tied up some German troops. Some German troops were also lost in Africa. But to be more precise, I was asking more than saying. I'm not an expert on ww2, at least not to an extent some guys here are, like Cegorach or PanzerJaeger.

But it seems to me that in the beggining of the war, Soviets didn't have that that much going for them... Just thought it would be interesting to know just how much population was in the SU, in the part that wasn't occupied by Germany, when Soviets started their counteroffensive. I'm guessing really, since there is no way to know how much population lived in that part of SU that Germany conquered at the beggining. I'm guessing at that time probably no more than 2:1. As the war went on and Germans were losing more and more soldiers in the eastern front but also in other theaters and Soviets were liberating more and more territory it's not so difficult to come to 20:1 Soviet advantage near the end of the war...
