Nazi’s to the left of me,
Soviets to the right,
Here I am,
Stuck in Poland with you

[erich]

Did you know the blue in Polands flag represents reliable allies?

"This is not peace, this is merely an armistice for 20 years."
- Marshal Ferdinand Foch, signing the treaty of Versailles 1919.



Germany: *declares war on Poland in September 1939*

Me: He was so right.

[Husar]

Polish command: All units need to evacuate from Poland
Major Hubal: the fuck we will

[orangesplatproductions]

Being sunk by Austrian-Hungarian bombs in 1940 is crazy

[jakegarvin]

"Oh, you were expecting us to be mechanized? Yeah..sorry, we just have horses and meth"

[No.]

Ah yes the greatest ally of Germany until 1941

[hildegunstvonmythenmetz]

It‘s truly astonishing how much luck the Nazis had. They were incompetent, their plans and goals were obviously crazy, and on paper the deck was stacked against them from the moment Hitler first got into politics. That they even managed to make it to 1945 is quite a miracle.

[HaartieeTRUE]

It's still mind boggling how the war could have been over by 1941, had France and Britain just.... walked forward.

3:09 as a Lithuanian, I can tell that’s not our flag at the time: someone flipped the green and the yellow colours (Yellow at the top, green in the middle and red at the bottom is the correct one)

4:12 Don't worry, I'm subscribed, so the bullet missed me and hit my mom

[Niveaufriedhofchef]

Whats crazy is that in Russia to this day, they don't consider the combined Nazi and Soviet attack on Poland the start of WWII. In fact, they start counting not in 1939 (when they attacked), but in 1941, when operation Barbarossa started and don't call it WWII, but the Great Fatherland War or something similarly self centered. They try to erase not just Ukrainian, but also Polish history from the books. Don't let them do it <3

[CliffCardi]

Ireland: I have the worst neighbor ever!
Poland: Hold my vodka.

[flashender]

Nobody expected for this war to last for 50 years for Poland.

[Kmlcvlk]

I respect Ismet Pasha because of this. Guy hold up as neutral while being completely surrounded by fighting parties for almost the entire conflict and hold up the turkish straits and chromium mines during this time.

[Happyman]

And thus begins the story of why Poland in 2024 hovers its finger over article 5

[dongiovanni]

Tankies get big mad when you point out that WW2 could have been averted if not for the red brown alliance.

And yes, the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was an alliance to divide eastern europe between the two empires.

[kimberlylewistyner]

0:05 why dose he say it so wholesome!?!😂

[binarybridgador]

I can't believe how tankies have 4D chess mindgamed themselves into believing that the USSR was somehow against the Nazis "from the beginning".
Stalin had several opportunities to deny or delay the Germans from achieving their strategic goals (even accounting for realpolitik), not pressuring the Allies to negotiate peace, not proving port to that tanker for Norway's invasion, not providing raw material, not providing tank and aircraft experts, etcetera.
