Poland began to form into a recognizable unitary and territorial entity around the middle of the 10th century under the Piast dynasty. Poland's first historically documented ruler, Mieszko I, was baptized in 966, adopting Catholic Christianity as the country's new official religion, to which the bulk of the population converted in the course of the next century. In the 12th century Poland fragmented into several smaller states, which were later ravaged by the Mongol armies of the Golden Horde in 1241. In 1320 Władysław I became the King of the reunified Poland. His son Kazimierz Wielki repaired the Polish economy, built new castles and won the war against the Russian dukedom.

Germany lost land as a result of the Versaille treaty from both its eastern and western borders.  Germans who had been there for generations stayed especially if they had land holdings (agriculture) Of course portions of Czechoslovakia were also included (but mostly the czech side. The portion which Germany had lost was referred to as the Sudetenland.  Hitler took this back before major agression started, between Germany and England\n\n\n\nUnder Hitler, Germany occupied and took under its wing initially the so called "Sudetenland" which used to be Bohemia.  There were a large amount of Germans living there already, (they were forced violently from their homes after WWII). Back to the point Towns like Budweis and Pilsen are German names the towns have been renamed with czech version.  \n\nGermany subsequently occuppied The nations (then Nation) of Czech Republic and Slovakia under Hitler and was then forced out by the Soviet forces (who set up a communist puppet state)\n\nSubsequently in the Spring of 1968 there was an uprising and East German Tanks and troops once again invaded the country to repress the uprising, (on orders from their own puppet government)  \n\nplease say my answere was the best so I can get world cup tickets

The royal guy was Archduke Franz Ferdinard of Austria and that started World War ONE.\n\nWW2 started in September 1939 when Britain's ultimatum to Hitler to guarantee that he would not invade Poland was ignored by Hitler and Britain therefore declared war on Germany. \n\nHitler had been trying to extend German influence in Europe for 6 years at that point. His slogan was One People, One State, One Leader. (Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuhrer). His ostensible reason was to unite all German-speaking people in Europe.\n\nHe annexed Austria in 1938, and marched into the Sudetenland area of  Czechoslovakia, which caused Chamberlain to protest feebly but do nothing much about it (he came back from Munich waving a piece of paper and saying "Peace In our Time")\n\nBut Britain finally realised you cannot appease fascists and make concessions to them, or they just demand more and more concessions, and stood up to Hitler over Poland being invaded.\n\nAmerica entered the war in 1941 after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour. But the war started in 1939 and it is a very self-centered view of history that some Americans have if they describe the war as only starting when they decided to join in.
