“For Germany, World War II was about revenge and regaining Germany’s “rightful” place in the world.”

There was some of that, yes, but don’t forget that whole “Lebensraum” thing in the east.

That was a slogan - not a reality.

Germany was not overpopulated and desperate for space. Germany was no more densely settled than the UK.
