no t gonna lie i really enjoyed ur reaction about my Poland you talked straight facts about this and funfact before Warsaw Uprising happend and this will be a paraphrase of the quote, I'm sorry but I don't remember exactly how it goes but one of the main decision makers said along the lines " we have young men we have children who want to fight but i promise when we start the urprising russians will stay on the other side of the vistula and the will look how and when we die because its their main intrest" i forgot the name of thegeneral who said this but i swear thats true because that was their main intrest in WWII after defeating Hitler
Edit: because many peaple were against uprising because of it

Yeah and the soviets rounded up anyone who survived and shot them to reduce the risk of revolt after the war. Poland has a long history many of them filled with dark moments. But now you are a free country able to determine your own destiny.

29:52 and during the warsaw uprising 85% of all buildings were destroyed which you can guess was devastating

[@ExploringMilitaryHistory]

only 85% those are kids numbers, looks at the soviet villages.

The truth is that the French and the English did not have how and they behaved like cowards and we should talk about it loudly. Poles were bleeding out and our so-called allies were waiting, who knows what? We Poles will never fully trust our allies again, we only look at our own strength.

5:05 /// There is no indication whatsoever that Germany would have attacked Poland after giving up Danzig and building a road to East Prussia. There are documents and transcripts which speak of abandoning territorial claims against Poland if they became Hitler's ally. Exactly as claims were abandoned against Italy, Hungary, Finland or Croatia. Hitler hoped that the Poles' aversion to communism would result in improved relations between Poland and Germany. Hitler himself greatly respected Jozef Pilsudski and hoped for a Polish-German alliance.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend".
The plan to attack Poland did not emerge until April 1939 when Poland signed a pact with Britain for mutual assistance in the event of an attack which destroyed Germany's plans and put Poland on the other side of the conflict. After all, the Germans were planning to attack France and Britain, they could not afford to have their ally in the east.
Signing it was suicide because GB and France could not guarantee the inviolability of the Polish borders. Although they tried.
As a curiosity I will add that until April 1939 the Poles were considered an Aryan nation.

Bullshit Hitler was marxist like soviets there wasn't place to ally with Hitler . Greatings from Poland

[@Amrod97]

@@wolnysarmata3922 Hilter was a Marxist? The Nazis who burned Marx's books would have been very surprised.
There was a lot of place for Poland's alliance with Germany. Why? Because it took place from the moment Hitler took power. Since 1932, Poland had perfect relations with Germany. Outside the Axis countries, only Poles supported the annexation of Austria, only Poles supported the appropriation of the Sudetenland, and only Poles recognized the independence of Slovakia after the creation of the protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Ba, Slovakia was to be a protectorate belonging to Poland, but Jozef Beck and Edward Smigly were unable to come to an agreement with the Germans on this issue. The alliance broke down when the Poles started pacting with the UK. Why? Because they were afraid that their allies would attack them. XD Poland could have avoided the war had it not been for the shitty policies of Beck and Śmigły.
Also, greetings from Poland.
