1.09.1939 at around 4 am Germany attacked us, Polish, from the west. They were massively murdering polish people, jews, and polish people who were protecting jews. We were risking our lives to protect jews. If Geman's SS man founded out that we were hidding jews, then all our families were going to be murdered. They were Taking all the polish citizens away and sending them to gas chambers and murdering them there. Places like Auschiwtz were hell to many polish citizens, jews, and not only, that Germany did. German's SS men leaded by Adolf Hitler, who was chosen to be German leader of the German Nazi Party by German people, were killing not only polish citizens by pulling a gas (Cyclon B) to gas chambers. They were hiding our corpses in basements, and when there was no more place, they were burning them. Their war actions were very brutal. I'd like to point out that Germany always had a problem to us since even before the 966. First battle was in 972 known as Battle in Cedynia, where Mieszko I now known as Polish Prince (for me he is first Polish King) won. Its not only Germany who did the hell to us at the times of WW2. Austrains were by their side.
Whats more 17.09.1939 Russians attacked us from the east. They were murdering all the Polish people in thier way, brutally raping polish women, stealing any food, weapons, aMmunitions. They were worse than Germany. Taking Polish citizens away from their homes and sending them to Siberia, where they created death camps. Russians were using Polish people as cheap workforce, giving us almost nothing to eat. (1 slice of bread per day). We mostly were sleeping on a floor just few hours. Russians were using us to work sometimes 20 hours a day.
I don't have much information about Slovakians, but sources says that they were leading death camps at terrorium of Poland. Although it was just a few, they still leaded them. What I know for sure, is Germany asked Hungary to help them in extermination of polish people, but Hungarians disagreed on that, and if there were any death camps leaded by Hungarians, then Hungarians were helping us there, giving us food, weapons and ammunitions.
Between 1946-1989 We were occupied by Russians. Therefore saying that Poland agreed on canceling any refundinsg for ruined cities such as Warsaw are lies, because politicians that were ruling Poland in that times were set by Russians. (Probably NKWD) We're still expecting Germany to pay money for ruined cities.
The reason why I am posting this is that I am hearing people living in west are being lied in the schools about the History of Poland, they're being told that It was Polish death camps, and polish people were murdering there. Its a lie, the death camps were Germans, and on polish terytorium. German people were murdering polish citizens, polish jews, and a lot of people from other countries around Poland.
If I still got your attention there, I'd like to point out that Poland once were big monarchy. Connected with Lihuandia by an union. Here is the map of how big we once were. Year 1622.
As you can see, we were pretty big in XVII century. Are you wondering what happened? I was wondering too, and when I found out i was pretty disappointed, angry, and sad. We had wars against Sweden at the times of XVII century. We won them, but they destroyed our country inside. Pretty much. The reasons of that wars were : Swedish King wanted to make big monarchy with Sweden, Poland&Lithuania and Russia, but We found out they Swedish King had other hidden ambitions to us, and we disagreed. So they went to conquer us, but they failed. Also in same times our loved king Jan III Sobieski stopped muslims in Wiedeń. After hes death we had not proper Kings that let nobility to ruin our country from inside, as they had other businesses they wanted to accomplish. Nothing to common with anything good for our country at all. Sources said that our last king Stanisław August Poniatowski had put the nail to the coffin by lending much money from Russia, so Katarzyna II, the Russian Emperor agreed to cancel all the debts If Stanisław August Poniatowski agreed on partition of Poland. Since 1795 to 1918 we were leaded by Russians. We had a november Uprising in 1830, which failed, and after that we had january Uprising in 1863, which also failed, but we didn't give up after all, and we fought for our independence in World War 1st in 1914, to win it in 1918.
Summing up we always were brave country, fighting till the end since the beginning of our existence.Since 966. Our history is insane. Usually backstabbed by countries from around us. In more than 1000 years of history We had wars with : Czech, Lithuania, Slovakia, Hungary. Muslims, Sweden, Germany, Russia or Crusaders. We had wars inside our country between us,but we survived all that. Once we were friends with Hungary or Lithuania, once we were enemies with them. Our history is long and beautiful.
