Poland has been invaded many many times, but I'm assuming you mean the WWII invasion.
For Germany, it was just the next logical step of their European expansion plan. They'd actually already invaded and taken control of the Czech territory before they moved into Poland.
For Russia, it was a good oppourtunity to cooperate with Germany and settle what would supposively become the new Russian-German border.
