And Nazis allies against the West. Essentially a 3rd power that tried to win against both. And looking at how they helped Nazis/Germany before the war, they were one of the main actors to kickstart the war.

There were no "the West" until after the 2WW when the Soviet and the US put France and UK down. They were on the losing side of the 2WW.

„West“ as in Allies sans Soviets.

Which in essence was UK and dependents and later also the US?
