It did not have far reaching consequences, because the other western powers were afraid to start another world war, so allowed Germany the right to annex Poland.

No Western Power "allowed" Germany the right to annex Poland. Both Britain and France declared war on Germany specifically because of Germany's attack. However, neither Britain nor France were in a favorable military position to intervene or prevent the attack on Poland. The long term consequences were disastrous for Germany as she eventually lost the war and the country was cut in half. Initially, Germany gained several positive short term advantages, such as the territory and the increased access to the North Sea.
