We wouldn't be speaking German because most of us would be dead.
As for America liberating Europe: it was the Canadians who decided to head North and free that little country below sea-level. The US was planning on skipping it, figuring it would be freed automatically by occupying Germany. Never mind that would have cost the lives of a couple of hundred thousand more innocent civilians.
Don't mean to diss America (I'm not dumb enough to be anti-American), but this "We brought you freedom" claim is a little exaggerated.

Germany was the greatest war-waging nation. She brought 5 great nations to their knees but as soon as the Americans decided to enter fully she was destined to fall. As far as war-waging goes I got to hand it to Nazi-Germany. As for America as the great liberator, I'd say the combination of Britain and America was what sealed the deal. They were the financial powerhouses, lending money to other countries, and battled well. Soviet also, obviously, played a huge part, with their endless number of soldiers. But anyway, my point, if it had been a battle between Nazi Germany and USA, The Nazis would have won. The only reason they didn't is because they had shit allies and had to battle Britain, Soviet, France, smaller countries with resistance movements, basically they took the World head on! Not an easy task but they almost freaking did it.
