Never heard that.
You learn more every day.
Thank you.
Yea, I knew about teutons.
And "Danzig" is important, as it is an important part of the rationale of Hitler for invading Poland :
"Re-unite Greater Germany". - And as a result : Soviet rationale for invading Poland. Especially at the same time.
One thing I find very very odd.
Britain and France said they would declare war if Poland was attacked.
Germany : Britain and France declared war against Germany.
Soviet Union : Nothing.
What for? Let's open the history textbook and see the following historical fact: In April 1939, the USSR invited the ambassadors of France and Great Britain to the Moscow talks. The USSR proposed a triple alliance between the USSR, France and Great Britain. Negotiations were held on the basis of the unwillingness of Poland to give the right of passage to the Soviet troops in the event of the outbreak of war. After dragging out the negotiations, the USSR signed a non-aggression pact with Germany. If Poland agreed, it could have been a completely different war, without millions and millions of victims.
For Poland, the USSR was the main threat. Also in 1938, when the USSR announced that it was ready to defend the sovereignty of Czechoslovakia - Poland, denying the right of passage of the Soviet troops and officially stated: in the event of any attempt by the USSR to assist Czechoslovakia, Poland would declare war on the USSR. This fact is enough that the USSR unilaterally withdraw from the Polish-Soviet non-aggression treaty of 1932.
