Seems like they wanted to get back there and thought the legend of the battle of the vistula was due to sheer will.
Maybe not vassals in the sense of the Czechs or Hungarians, but Italian level allies.
Pretty much, but FDR, the Polish colonels, and Britain ensured it.
What specifically?
1.Indeed.Piłsudzki,their leader,was smart,but died in 1935.And we have idiots who thought that they could win by power of their Will - and run like cowards when reality hit them.
Funny,considering that they accused last King of poland of not dying heroically when war was lost.
2.True,we would be second Italy for them.Maybe they would even let us hold some colonies on East,like italian have in Africa.
3.No,it was all thanks rto France.If they hold for at least one year,soviets would backstab Hitler and get entire Europe.
4.Soviet plan - made deal with germans,let them fight allies,and attack after few years of hard fighting when both sides would be on their last legs.
Sralin was genocidal thug,but this plan should work and gave him both Europe and Africa/there was notching which could stop soviet forces there/
Most of Asia,too.
Of course,tyhanks to shitty Navy,they would never take Americas and Japan,and eventually fall to economy.
Only good thing in this case - survivors in West Europe would not praise communism.
