History / The heroic jump of the 1st Polish Independent Paratrooper Brigade [81]
Force of habit dont assign any meaning to it, i repeatedly admitted that Lower Silesia is historically far more German then Polish.
Given that we just lost 20% of our territory with some national heartlands like Lwów and here's this nation that just killed off 1/5th of our people i'd say we were fully justified in annexing these territories.
Another thing is that Germans drone over how we got their mighty beatifull cities and purposefully omit the fact that the entire region was a massive cratered moonscape and if you get to enjoy wonders of German architecture today its because the Poles rebuilt it, usually from scratch.
Come on BB after the frontline went through the region the place was reduced to ruins gonna find you a before and after folder i saved from my discussion with a German buddy about how we inherited the "rich regions".
Which one?:) There's enough definitions to justify both my point and yours, the point of the point is however that you're not born into polish culture, habits or way of life being a citizen is quite different then being a native.
Home grown economy only, there was no significant outside investment prior to 1936 unless you know some alternative history in which there was one?
Growing from zero is also not the fault of Poles, the frontline ravaged Poland whereas say Germany had all of its industry intact post WW1, the fact that Polish economy grew 320% from 1919 to 1939 is testament to the skill and organisation qualities of the Poles, i can name ten countries off the bat who with same resources couldnt do it, some of them still cant.
My point being that Poland was a first world culture and civilisation forcefully dragged to a status of a third world country like Ukraine or Belarus via wars and decisions of foreign powers.
I dont want compensation, unlike Jews i dont want anyone to apologise to me or my country but i do want to ***** and quite frankly i feel Europe owes us patience in our *****ing, if we want to bytch and moan about how we got crapped all over the West needs to put up with it since it owes us this particular thing, not money, not apologies but acceptance that we have a burden we have to roll with and its a big one.
TheOther: Since when are you using terms that were invented by the Polish communists for propaganda purposes? I thought you hate those guys... :)

TheOther: Which Poland was more than happy to annex...

Bratwurst Boy: Hey!

jonni: The accepted definition of nationality suggests otherwise. But you know that already.

jonni: Growing from zero, and definitely not with "only home grown funds". Unless you know otherwise.
