Why was the polish corridor given to Poland?
The Polish Corridor is also often referred to as the 'Danzig Corridor' was created at the end of the First World War as a method to give the re-created Poland access to the Baltic Sea by granting a portion of Pomerania in West Prussia (previously a part of Germany) to Poland. This political action geographically separated the German province of East Prussia from the rest of Germany and created international tensions betwen Poland & Germany over the borders and the treatment of ethnic Germans inside Poland. Adolf Hitler used the political tensions concerning the Polish Corridor to threaten Poland and further increase the tension to the point of a crisis in August 1939, that Hitler then used as an excuse to invade & defeat Poland in September 1939, which began the Second World War in Europe.

What is the loss of the Polish corridor and Danzig?
Danzig is a city in Poland, now called Gdansk. It's an important sea port. The Polish Corridor was a big strip of land in western Poland that borders Germany. Before World War I, Danzig and the Polish Corridor belonged to Germany. After the war ended, Germany was forced to give up the Polish Corridor to the newly reformed country of Poland (in short summary, Poland ceased to exist about 120 years earlier when Germany, Austria and Russia conquered it and split it up between themselves; at the end of World War I, Poland was recreated). Danzig was made a "free city", basically a country of its own but protected by Poland. So the loss of the Polish Corridor and Danzig is when Germany lost World War I and was forced to give them to Poland. One of the causes of World War II was that Hitler wanted to get them back as part of Germany, and when he invaded Poland to take them, England and France declared war on him.
