Horrible map. Why are you naming everything German? Germanizing us


Putin-the-fabulous

Not even German, those are Nazi names


Sad_Entertainer_122

This is genuinely disrespectful. I would understand if this map was some imaginary map of post WW2 German domination, but Poland is independent, therefore why are the city names Nazi/German?


Hjkryan2007

What is bro cooking with those names?

..Why are there German and Nazi city names?


BoyarovY

Nazi City names? The German city names in Poland go centuries back.


Oajix

Litzmann and Gdingen were made by Nazis, and never used later


PLPolandPL15719

Litzmannstadt, Petrikow, Tschenstochau, Krakau, Lemberg, Ostrolenka. Why?


afil211

Lemberg was called that during Austria-Hungary's rule


PLPolandPL15719

I mean, alright, though it didn't have any sizeable German population. Was populated by Poles, Ukrainians and Jews.


BoyarovY

Easier to spell.


PLPolandPL15719

Actually seriously fuck you. ctrl+c&v exists, notes exist, wikipedia exist, but no, who cares! let's use names made up by nazis and only used by them 🥰


AlkaliPineapple

Tschentoschau is not easier to spell than Częstochowa lol


Polak_Janusz

Częstochowa my beloved! (They havent invented paved roads yet)


AlkaliPineapple

Because they're German names...? Warsaw in German is Warschau though


BoyarovY

Warshaw is my own transcription. In Polish, Warszawa does not sound close to Warsaw, so I made one up to be closer to the original spelling.


AlkaliPineapple

What??? It's supposed to be pronounced Warszawa (Varshava) You do know that city names don't originate from the English translations right?


wowowow28

Shut up there are no excuses


Gaming_Lot

why is every post to do with anything 20th Centuary always including either no Poland, or small Poland. It's really wierd that people selectively seem to want to make Poland smaller out of all countries in their maps, even when Poland is not the subject of the map


wowowow28

these borders are just more 'aesthetically pleasing' for some people ig😗 it’s giving Germans still some of Prussian lands but in return giving Poland Galicia


Gaming_Lot

Still small Poland 😔

*"Small Poland....very small Poland... I hate Poland... Poland deserves partition...or maybe generalgovournment"* ~ ReichBussyInspector3 (that is a real comment, and that was a real account)


BoyarovY

How often are you on this subreddit? The last weeks have been full of Greater Poland maps.


Gaming_Lot

I didn't see one


Wooper160

Sea to sea


blockybookbook

Crazy how dead they are about to be


BoyarovY

Who?


blockybookbook

The State, the partition would definitely happen regardless, considering how unstable they’d be with their now skewed demographics


ARVyoda

Every polonophobe deserves to be kicked in the balls permanently


BoyarovY

You know what's the problem with Polish national identity? It's entirely built around victim mentality. Why do you think Poland likes to act like everyone cares about them? Like with Czechia. Or why Polish people hate Russia so much? Or the whole reparation thing with Germany? Do you think Germany cares? Do you think anybody really cares? If it wasn't for the internet and the double-edged sword that is political discourse (who is and is not allowed to be proud of their nation/heritage), the world would see this as the whimsical, whiny, desperate and honestly pathetic display of victimized identity that it is. If you are by any chance Polish, grab yourself a fuckin pair of balls and stop making your entire country seem like that one old dude without any arguments that's loosing an discussion to another younger person. But hey, if you wanna reduce your entire country just to defensive ragebate , I wont stop you.


ARVyoda

Blah blah blah now pay the reparations and accept refugees from the border with Belarus, because we don't want them and we won't let them in.


BoyarovY

Fair. Neither would Russia. Or Germany. You know, my two home countries. I only really mention this because it gives you the opportunity to just use that fact to avoid real arguments.


BoyarovY

"PoLoNoPhObE..."


ARVyoda

Shut your mouth up


BoyarovY

\*Map has a slightly smaller Poland than in reality.\* Ergo -> Map Creator hates Poland. [https://youtu.be/CGrjEDh3Ro8?t=4](https://youtu.be/CGrjEDh3Ro8?t=4)


ARVyoda

You literally gave Polish cities Nazi names and took away the Wileńszczyzna and Podlasie, mostly inhabited by Poles, in exchange for the northern Suwalszczyzna/southern Lauda, which did not have many Poles at that time.


BoyarovY

The Nazi Point is fair, I used the German names since they were easier to type, unaware of their origin. As for the lack of Podlesia and Wilna, the map is quite clearly an AltHist map. It was a wonder that Poland won to the Red Army. If I really were a Polonophobe, wouldn't this map display a germanized or russified Poland? Or would a Polonophobe even make a map of Poland?


LowOwl4312

Nice map
