The Soviet Union's win against German attacks in WWII was significantly impacted by its vast geography and brutal winters. The harsh winter conditions immobilized German troops who were unprepared for the cold, while the massive distances hampered their supply lines. The Soviets effectively utilized their knowledge of winter warfare to strengthen their military response against the Germans.
