Some people couldn't make up their mind on which side they were on.

Red and blue have always been used to represent two opposing forces. When you have players on both sides, you can't really say "Red is always the enemy" now can you?

Besides, the game is setup so as to allow any number of nations to be at war, either in a historical or fictional context. What if I wanted to make a scenario where Canada invades the U.S. Who would you call the "allies" and the "axis" then?

1. British Empire and British Commonwealth Nations
2. Herman Goering

Why not?
Lots of games have the opposite side as red and friendlies as green..

Red colour is always mean "friend" is Russia. Nazi, tommy, yankee and other enemies is blue. But for political correctness, England forces in this game is red. You should be proud of.

Can you tell us the "name" that the literature and news reports of 1942 - 1945 used for "The Allies"?

Ummm
"The year following the end of World War II, GE stood accused of criminal conspiracy with Krupp, a major German munitions firm. Their partnership artificially raised the cost of U.S. defense preparations while helping to subsidize Hitler’s rearmament of Germany. The arrangement continued even after Nazi tanks smashed into Poland."

"GM and Ford, through their subsidiaries, controlled 70 percent of the German automobile market when war broke out in 1939. Those companies “rapidly retooled themselves to become suppliers of war materiel to the Germany army,”

"A senior executive of General Motors also received a medal from Hitler"
