Not initially. Germany was one of the most advanced states in Europe. I think it would have collapsed due to socialism if left alone over tome however.

It absolutely would have collapsed. See the book "The Vampire Economy" for a look into how the economy was run. Its amazing they did as well as they did.

They had a hands of policy, so it was socialism but unenforced. But we all know how that ends.
