- After crossing the Rhine the Western Allies fanned out overrunning all of western Germany from the Baltic in the north to Austria in the south before the Germans surrendered on May 7, 1945. This is known as the "Central Europe Campaign" in United States military histories. By the early spring of 1945, events favored the Allied forces in Europe. On the Western Front the Allies had by January turned back the Germans in the Battle of the Bulge. The failure of this last major German offensive exhausted much of Germany's remaining combat strength, leaving it ill-prepared to resist the final Allied campaigns in Europe. Additional losses in the Rhineland further weakened the German Army, leaving shattered remnants of units to defend the east bank of the Rhine. By mid-March the western Allies had pushed to the Rhine along most of the front, had seized an intact bridge at Remagen, and had even established a small bridgehead on the river's east bank. German casualties during the Allied campaign to reach the Rhine in February and March 1945 are estimated to 400,000 men, including 280,000 men captured as prisoners of war. On the Eastern Front, the Soviet Red Army had overrun most of Poland, pushed into Hungary and eastern Czechoslovakia, and temporarily halted at what is now the modern German border on the Oder-Neisse line. These rapid advances on the Eastern Front destroyed additional veteran German combat units and severely limited Hitler's ability to reinforce his Rhine defenses. Thus, as the western Allies completed their preparations for the final drive into the heart of Germany, victory seemed within sight.
- 中歐會戰（Central Europe Campaign），在當時的納粹德國又稱為德國保衛戰，是第二次世界大戰盟軍為在中歐地區數國，為擊退德軍所發動一連串軍事行動，時間是自1945年3月22日到5月11日攻佔德國首都柏林為止，盟軍統稱取名為“中歐會戰”；導致希特勒舉槍自殺，粉碎納粹黨，納粹德國戰敗投降，第三帝國走入歷史。 在1945年春天盟軍在歐洲戰場局面轉為有利，德軍西戰場「突出部之役」在一月現出敗象，此戰是德軍最後一次最大反攻作戰卻失敗，且消耗德軍剩餘戰力；德軍僅存殘兵敗將抵抗盟軍攻入中歐洲及德國，失去萊茵河沿岸土地讓德軍更為弱化，僅存部隊編制人員皆不足，都撤退至萊茵河東岸堤防防守；到三月中旬「西戰場」盟軍擁擠沿著萊茵河大部份前線，美軍最早攻佔雷瑪根市魯登道夫大橋，並在此橋東岸建立小面積橋頭堡。 「東戰場」方面蘇聯紅軍幾乎已經佔領波蘭大部份國土，並且紅軍已經潮水般擁入匈牙利及捷克東境，且甚至已經攻抵德、蘇國界之「Oder-Neisse line」防線，紅軍至此停攻稍事休息；「東戰場」紅軍快攻追擊撤退慢德軍，報復毀滅數個在曾經侵略蘇聯數年的德軍軍團，導致德軍「西戰場」防衛萊茵河明顯兵力缺乏，也因此，「西戰場」盟軍已經充分休息補充戰鬥物資，準備隨時攻入德國總司令部；盟軍似乎勝利在望。
