What if ... Germany had not been defeated in WWII? (Someone was bound to include this one sooner or later.)
I suspect something not dissimilar to "Fatherland" by Robert Harris. The Germans in a cold war type situation with the USA, fighting a long guerilla war beyond the Urals with the remains of the Soviet Union, lots of insurgencies surviving in Eastern Europe/Western Russia.

The "thousand year Reich" probably then collapses under the weight of its own incompetence, presumably after the death of dear old Adolf.
