For some important and factual reasons
One united in Nationalism and control
The other had united workers into a force
They'd wallowed in war, killing as hubris
They'd believed they'd chosen their destiny
In the hateful event of ill remembered time
Humanity cried, pain unable to be measured
The facts and knowledge now lost in crimes
In the two opponents, as equals in a contest
Catastrophe of violence, dead linger in fields
And here titans would remain frozen, in anger
Wrath poured out, lives cut down in a prime
Two opposite forces strike, refusing to fall
Bodies stiff, unable to move, battle winter
Nothing remains for the bodies left there
Only to hear screaming souls, violent tasks
Innocents die, reapers call, Titans clashed

When two notorious or evil powers fight each other, it is common to hope they
both destroy the other. The war did choose a winner, but it didn't destroy that
power, it pressed reset upon their journey. Calling the battle on the Eastern front
the Great Patriotic War the Soviet Union made memory of purges and hunger
feel like it was done for a higher cause. Obviously many authors have had many
different opinions.
