1919-1920 Peace Conferences of WWI, ... Germany lost all African and Pacific Ocean colonies, ...European territories to France ...Denmark ...Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Lithuania and by far the largest chunk—17,806 square miles to Poland that contained 12% of her population.

You must be smoking something... and it ain’t common sense.

Germans lost what WASN’T THEIRS in the first place. So much for your “analysis”.

You’re exactly right, finally a voice of reason? Laying a claim to land that has changed hands more times than history has had the pleasure to record generally doesn’t make for a good case for it to change hands again.

I suppose the Mongols will be sending a letter soon asking for southeastern Europe back. Hell, the Italians have a pretty case for just asking for all of Europe back.

As I wrote, what is one country's and not another's all depends on when you start the history clock. (Map of Europe above, circa 1200 AD.)

The map (circa 1600 AD) displayed in Post #68 shows Poland holds territory that belongs to Lithuania. Where does it end? Are other threats more important?
