History / What if scenario´s for WW2 and Poland [112]

I am sorry, I should have started my map series with this one:

I still don`t understand how Germans managed to lose so much land. It is unbelievable.

History / What if scenario´s for WW2 and Poland [112]

Well...we lost it fighting the whole world....2 times...Poland vanished from the map against Prussia....unbelievable! ;)

Plus Russia and Austria.

But Germans fighting the whole world is really a stunt. Only Germans could dare to try to do this. Faustian strategy! :):):):)

I consider them intelligent, down-to-earth, rational, practical people, the nation of great inventors (Roentgen, Benz, Daimler, Mercedes) and composers (Wagner, Schubert, Valkyrie) etc. What pushed them into such a folly, twice?

I am sorry, I forgot to add great German writers: Geothe, Faust, Remarque, Grass.

In Remarque`s All Quiet on the Western Front there is a scene when the narrator recalls his school time:
"Does it go: 'We Germans fear God and none else in the whole world,'
or 'We, the Germans, fear God and–––' " I submit.

How true is this sentence today? And yesterday?

I can see those cunning bassas in Burkina Faso are still resisting. Not for long hopefully - Ouagadougou is an ancient Slavic city and
must be taken back at all cost!

What about Gabon? Some time ago the PiS leader got worried that Poland would have to repel the attack by Gabon?

A PO councillor from Małopolskie is going to Gabon. He wants to apologise to the Gabonese for Jarosław Kaczyński's recent comments. He has the support of party colleagues; the PiS authorities are outraged.

Kazimierz Czekaj, a PO councillor on the Małopolskie provincial assembly and head of its budget committee, is a keen traveller. ...

Life / What Happen To The Polish People? Money more important than faith and respect? [8]

I want to know what happened to the polish people.I was always taught to work hard,have respect for others and in our faith.Today Polish people only care about what they have,how big it is and if it better than someone else has.

You are talking about little polish people. There have always been such. Greedy, selfish, uncaring.

Yet, Great Polish People still keep the old values. Generous, hard-working, respectful, faithful.

Guys, there are many Polish films about Christmas.

The most memorable to me is Decalogue, part 3, a series by K. Kieśłowski: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decalogue_III
