Gdnask, located on the Baltic coast at the mouth of the Motlawa River, is the main seaport of Poland. Gdnask is noted for being the birth place of what became known as the Solidarity movement, paving the way for the end of Communism in Europe. The Gdania River is believed to be where the city got its name.
Zuraw (the medieval port crane) located over the Motlawa river and the Town Hall Spire featuring a prominent statue of Poland’s King Sigismund II perched at the top, greet visitors to the historic city. Many of Gdnask’s stunning buildings (most dating to the 17th century) can be seen along Ulica Dluga and Dlugi Targ (Long Street and Long Market) such as Uphagen House, Artus’ Court and Golden House.
City buses and a railway train system offer great ways for visitors to enjoy all that Gdnask has to offer from historic buildings such as St. Nicholas Church to Shakespearean theaters and much more.
Who did Hitler agree to invade and share Poland with?
Before WW2 started Hitler and Russia made a Non Aggression Pact. Hitler actually promised Stalin to invade Poland and share it with Russia.There was a treaty made between the Third Reich and the USSR which was known (for the people who negotiated it) as the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, in which these two powers agree to carve up Eastern Europe and share it between themselves; of course, the treaty was rapidly violated. Had this treaty been honored rather than violated, it is likely that WW II would have had quite a different outcome.

What village in northeastern Poland scene of a major Russian defeat by German forces in August 1914?
Tannenberg. The actual defeat of the Russians was spread over a large area and the battle was only called after this place because the Poles had defeated the Teutonic Knights at Tannenberg in 1410. Tannenbaum. This is a widely studied battle in which a small part of the German army defeated a much larger Russian force, thus protecting Germany's eastern frontier from a Russian invasion. The bulk of the German army (about 85%) was fighting in France at the time. The German plan was to send most of its army into France and quickly defeat the French army, then race east to defeat the slower-mobilizing Russians. If not for the victory at Tannenbaum, the Germans might have had to pull armies out of France to prevent a Russian invasion into Germany.
