Myth: Poland offered little resistance and surrendered quickly.
Germany sustained relatively heavy losses, especially in vehicles and planes: Poland cost the Germans approximately the equipment of an entire armored division and 25% of its air strength.
It's from the english wikipedia (yeah, it still could be written by polak, I know :D but there's a reference to the source, so it's probably a truth). Not that I watched that vid or something, but I think it wasn't really "being smashed" tbh, considering the difference in the amount of preparations taken ^^
I know!:D Our politicians suck, and nobody does anything to change it, and many things about country are not as good as they could be.
I just don't like when somebody tries to say that my country is worse because it lost a war or something :D And I don't like it even more when somebody believes some past propaganda or something like that. I've heard that german army that was walking into cities was different one that was fighting, because this soldiers looks too frustrated and totally not happy about victory because of lost of friends/wounds.
thats awesome movie, but it won't change ppls opinion about Poland.. and sad is that we have lost a lot of surface when we had Russia Lithuania Estonia Belarus!! History that was/is mine favourite thing, especially History of Poland, reading about fights against cossack for example is just great:) i can def say im proud to be polish! http://www.maxior.pl/film/76946/Husaria_The_Winged_Hussars
every country has a history, nothing special + I dont care what Polaks did 500 years ago, they should rather do smth now, some kid is posting link and is fuckin proud to be polish and 5 minutes later his calling ppl idiots in online games just because they play better.
What the fuck? Why should he not say something? In my opinion he has all the rights to say that, and for that matter I completely agree with what he is saying, but that is a personal thing. You must be the better Polak then, aren't you.
always first to fight and always alone you can saw it at 1 world war and 2nd world war. Noone help us. Always remember a fallen soldier, Always remember fathers and sons at war, Always remember buried in history. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBwwFsKTJGs
beautiful country with beautiful history and im very proud to be polish
Nice the technology of Poland stopped @ 16xx
In 1939 they fought with Hussars against german panzers xD
But hey, they defended their Country for one week and not for few hours as expected !
That's from english wikipedia. Now take that, they even powned your uber german army :DDDD
But well, tbh, that was a german propaganda myth. Every country was using cavalry for reconaissance back then, and just because Poland once used in a Charge at Krojanty (delaying the german forces so they could remobilise or sth, don't remember) german though it would be a great idea to make a story of it :D Succesfully though.
it's a fact that poland used to be one of the strongest countries in europe around the 12th century (not only from the territorial aspect, economical matters as well). however, their economy today and the educational standards cannot really be compared to the rest of the europe.
yet I don't understand all this "my country is the best in the world just because I live in it" kinda bullshit..
How come people feel that they have to defend their country by posting links to videos about the history of over and over and over? Nobody cares, you may as well quit sobbing over the fact that most people dislike because, let's face it, most of you are downright retarded (with a few exceptions).
Where did I insult Poland in my statement? Exactly, nowhere (I did insult the majority of its inhabitants, which is a different thing).
I simply do not see the point in posting videos about Polish history because it won't change anyone's opinion. I don't dislike Poland (as a country), I simply despise most of its inhabitants.
the world owes poland a lot, but because people barely know history they just don realize, that the only reason they are alive is because of poland.. let them be ignorant, you dont get to choose where you are born, and your country doesnt make you, its your actions that make you.. most people here are cowards, and would probably become instant bitches to someone who threatens them

I just love that joke :D
e: it doesn't mean to be rude, just kidding ofc :D
I could remember the dramatic story of me asking my brother for a time (we were both kids back then).
then he finally told me:D
So, I'm kinda used to that kind of mathematic sense of humour :D
"Won't you help me?" "OK, no."

Don't take me wrong, Germany WAS much better in technology (especially military one) but not as much as you're describing it : )
