Question

I need to know which side was winning at the end of the war in 1940 for a history worksheet I have to do .

Answer 1

Germany was definitely winning at this point.  Germany had taken France. At least 5 other European nations had been invaded by Germany.

Answer 2

The short answer is the Axis Powers - Germany, Italy and (less relevantly) Japan. In Western Europe, the Mediterranean Sea and North Africa, only England continued to resist.
