History / Poland has paid £68 Million for helping UK in WW2 [168]
The whole alliance was made only to prevent Poland from joining Germany, without that or If they had informed that are going to do nothing, Poland would have joined Germany (lesser evil) and attack the Soviet Union together with them, which would probably make Soviets fall down and that wouldn't be good for France and GB. However France and GB overplayed the whole thing - didn't predict that Nazis could make the deal with Soviets and turn on the west first.
