Thank you,
@R00KB4 . I understood that you are familiar with history, and I'm always happy to encounter those who are. I thought you'd raised an interesting point, and your mention of Gdansk (the former Danzig) made it clear that you understood the significance of the Polish Corridor.
Germany did hope to capture that Corridor, creating continuity with East Prussia. Just as the Soviet Union hoped to feast upon much of Eastern Poland.
