Sure they contributed to the overall German defeat, but I rather doubt they'd have managed to free their country without the events occuring throughout the rest of the world.

Still, it does make an interesting setting.
True but what you say is valid for every fight anywhere during ww2. Without the soviets, Europe would have fall to Nazi rule. Without US, Australia would have been crushed by Japan. Without the Allies finally landing in France, it would have been difficult for the Red Army to win. Without Australians holding Tobruk, Egypt and the Middle east after it would have been conquered by Rommel. Without the French Spahis from Morocco, casualties at Monte Cassino would have been much higher. And so on and so forth...
