So true. Actually, Hungarian units offered to fight (yes, fight!) on polish side in the Uprising, only if soviets later recognised this and gave them "allies" status. Which soviets, ofcours, refused. (sorry for any misspelling). Polak, Wegier, dwa bratanki,i do szabli, i do szklanki!

Oweniee 21 I wouldn’t say short. Poland was an autonomous region in the Russian Empire since the partitions of poland. They had things happen in Poland, even if they were not a real country for that time.

on the night of August 3-4, allied planes - one halifax and three liberators - appeared for the first time over Warsaw with the Polish crews of the 1586th Special Squadron. It would not be surprising if it were not for the fact that this drop was the result of insubordination of Polish crews. Despite the intervention of the representatives of the Polish government with the British authorities, the action over the city was not approved by the deputy commander of the Mediterranean Allied Air Force (MAAF), marshal of aviation John Slessor, who claimed that such flights are marked by a high risk (the route was 1,400 km long and led over the Adriatic, Yugoslavia and Hungary, where there was a strong anti-aircraft defense and base of night fighters), and in addition Warsaw is in the operational zone of the Red Army and it is Soviet aviation that should support the insurgents www.polska1918-89.pl/pdf/zrzuty-dla-powstania,1797.pdf

It’ll be bordering the realm of DEMONETIZATION but you’d be the first channel that’s actually good or known to cover them. Literally the single German military unit that got most of the bad rap for the rest of the SS. Other SS quite literally hated these guys because of how brutal and depraved they were. Anyway, awesome video. The quality has definitely been going up.
"The rest of the ss hated these guys because of how brutal and depraved they were" They were a group comprised of war criminals and murderers who rounded up civilians and organized mass shootings regularly. I doubt there is anything that anyone could do to be hated by the ss unless you were born polish or Jewish.

Dude, great video but why did you upload it just minutes after the latest WW2 episode? :) Seriously though, thanks for popularising this topic. Despite that the video is short and not so serious, you managed to put a lot of information in it (including some often overlooked even in serious discussions about the Uprising). Since you were trying to be fair to the Soviets, I might add that there are some further arguments to be made in their defense (although they all come with counter-arguments to which I will get). 1. The Bagration offensive that brought the Red Army close to Warsaw was already running out of steam before the Uprising and another offensive was starting way down South on the other side of Carpathians, so there were some legitime reasons for Soviets to stop BUT their Polish radio station was still encouraging the people of Warsaw to rise up. 2. That little attempts at assistance to the insurgents in September included not only artillery shelling but also some limited air-drops, the Soviet Air Forces finally stopping letting Luftwaffe do whatever it pleased over Warsaw, and finally even letting some of the Polish troops under Soviet command to cross the river. HOWEVER, the drops were made in sacks without parachutes by low-flying small biplanes, which did little besides endangering the pilots and the troops that crossed the Vistula were far too weak to make any real difference, so it looks like sacrificing some Poles to make a semblance of helping Poles. All it achieved was prolonging the agony of the Uprising because the Home Army broke the first round of the capitulation negotiations, which they just started. The eventual capitulation was BTW kinda a little "success" because the German forces originally got directives from both Hitler and Himmler to literary kill everyone in the rebellious city (they did pretty much that in the districts of Ochota and Wola, which were the first to fall) and they generally weren't in a habit of negotiating with the resistance fighters or taking them as POWs. The bitter Polish resistance eventually made them propose terms of surrender instead. Also, the Western Allies issued a proclamation reminding that the members of the Home Army are in fact allied soldiers (too bad it didn't work on the Soviets).
Another super great comment my guy! Yeah, the Soviets did send the Polish contingent of their army across, but they all got mowed down pretty much. Another cool fact about the Polish surrender is that as several units were leaving the city, the SS lined up to salute them! I thought that that was pretty interesting.
Allies: We will defend Poland 1939 Comes Poland: Where ya at Allies have left the chat also It a me, loyal fan-ario me dude and I still dont have hoi4 ;-;
I swear I read books about uprising that didn’t have all those facts and made it look like poles just foolishly rose up with no plan . And jokes made me craic several times . Good job
Warsaw Uprising: Poles outnumbered and outgunned were supposed to fight a couple of days, fought over TWO months. Fall of France: French had better equipment, more less the same amount of soldiers, and great defensive lines. They were supposed to win, surrendered in ONE AND HALF month.

Fun fact after the uprising polish soldiers and German worked together to evacuate civilians from the city Some of the civilians ended up in work camps And u failed to mention that ukrainians soldiers were killing polish civilians sometimes against greman orders And German focused on hospitals they were bombing them and they were killing doctors and nurses they also burned alive sick or wounded people form the hospitals

I knew that Poland was betrayed by her allies during WWII, but I had no clue that the United States played any part in that. That shames me deeply. Though we became closer and closer from 1980 until the present day, which I am very proud of, I see no reason whatsoever for Britain and France to have betrayed her. The Poles are a great, strong, courageous, and freedom loving people and I'm very thankful that President Trump declared them an ally of the United States. 🇵🇱🇺🇸 Great video, as always.

Poles are great nation and this is sad part of their history, but it shows, that the will of those polish people was really strong and they wanted to help the country and the allies. Big respect to the people that were fighting for their city and against the nazis. Sending Greetings from Czech Republic.
Finally yes! Also I have an Idea for a video about Austria-Hungary, it would be really fun or you can do a nother ww1 video. Also keep it up man
Can you talk later of countries that had somewhat important contributions in ww2 but aren't taught as it need, in example: The Brazilian campaign in Italy by the Brazilian Expeditionary Force
.
Warsaw city of war
voices from underground
whispers of freedom
If you understand this then nice

Help that never came!
CALLING WARSAW, CITY AT WAR!
Rise up and hear the call
History calling to you,
*WARSZAWO WALCZ!*
The trees: Speak Vietnamese
The snow: Speak Finnish
The sewers: Speak Polish
Make a video on greece in WW2 I would love to see that!🇬🇷👍🏻
That’d be cool!
Nothing like reliving Italy getting it's booty spanked 😂
I really like your sense of humor. Great Video!
Thanks!
anyone see the 420 on the panzer?
Edit: Thanks for the like also I just saw the 69............I have to stop rewatching your videos so much
Lol i died when "Never gonna give you up" played
Poland:we love hungary
Hungary:we love poland
Meawhile Romania who let polish soldiers enter their country back in 39:why am i here just to suffer
“...an SS brigade comprised of released violent criminals...”
Dirlewanger Brigade video please? It’ll be bordering the realm of DEMONETIZATION but you’d be the first channel that’s actually good or known to cover them. Literally the single German military unit that got most of the bad rap for the rest of the SS. Other SS quite literally hated these guys because of how brutal and depraved they were.
Anyway, awesome video. The quality has definitely been going up.
"The rest of the ss hated these guys because of how brutal and depraved they were"
They were a group comprised of war criminals and murderers who rounded up civilians and organized mass shootings regularly. I doubt there is anything that anyone could do to be hated by the ss unless you were born polish or Jewish.
"The sewers... speak Polish." dawg lmfaooooo
Thank you so much for bringing the Uprising up and making people aware that this happened.
AND THEN THE SAD POLISH HISTORY ARRIVED
Man I really like this channel, these videos are really nice! see ya soon with a lot more subs
Thank you!
Glad that I'm able to watch this video without KGB fear,who they are to kidnap me to a gulag in ru-
It's really rare to see someone from outside of Poland to grasp the essence of the uprising. Nice of you.
And finally, Polska can into space!
No
@@hunterbg7531 it actually can
@@hrdeforda4154 Real shit?
Black Honker SPACE. that means three things: Space bar, territory and outer space.
Awesome new video! Keep them coming! Love from your eastern neighbour, Finland❤
History House Rickrolled us all. 🤣🤣🤣
"Even if you don't help and are just watching as we fighting your 'ally' , it is still better than those who gave false hope. I love you my Hungary brothers"
-Some guy in poland
there were supposedly - dont know it if it is a rlaible soruce negotiaitons about hungarian forces literally joining poles fighting in the uprising, but the home army wasn't able to guarantee anything for the hungarians if they soviets came in; hungarians really were tired and wanted to go back home
Poland: can I get Independence?
USSR: how bout no?
Video about Polish-Hungarian's bromance would be epic ;)
5:01 😭😂😂😂😂
Imagine they actually use that song 😂
The AK and Soviets: "The enemy of my enemy... is still my enemy"
Warsaw uprising in a nutshell
True
He’s alive
Sempai Conner noticed me
Dude, great video but why did you upload it just minutes after the latest WW2 episode? :)
Seriously though, thanks for popularising this topic. Despite that the video is short and not so serious, you managed to put a lot of information in it (including some often overlooked even in serious discussions about the Uprising).
Since you were trying to be fair to the Soviets, I might add that there are some further arguments to be made in their defense (although they all come with counter-arguments to which I will get).
1. The Bagration offensive that brought the Red Army close to Warsaw was already running out of steam before the Uprising and another offensive was starting way down South on the other side of Carpathians, so there were some legitime reasons for Soviets to stop BUT their Polish radio station was still encouraging the people of Warsaw to rise up.
2. That little attempts at assistance to the insurgents in September included not only artillery shelling but also some limited air-drops, the Soviet Air Forces finally stopping letting Luftwaffe do whatever it pleased over Warsaw, and finally even letting some of the Polish troops under Soviet command to cross the river. HOWEVER, the drops were made in sacks without parachutes by low-flying small biplanes, which did little besides endangering the pilots and the troops that crossed the Vistula were far too weak to make any real difference, so it looks like sacrificing some Poles to make a semblance of helping Poles. All it achieved was prolonging the agony of the Uprising because the Home Army broke the first round of the capitulation negotiations, which they just started.
The eventual capitulation was BTW kinda a little "success" because the German forces originally got directives from both Hitler and Himmler to literary kill everyone in the rebellious city (they did pretty much that in the districts of Ochota and Wola, which were the first to fall) and they generally weren't in a habit of negotiating with the resistance fighters or taking them as POWs. The bitter Polish resistance eventually made them propose terms of surrender instead. Also, the Western Allies issued a proclamation reminding that the members of the Home Army are in fact allied soldiers (too bad it didn't work on the Soviets).
Another super great comment my guy! Yeah, the Soviets did send the Polish contingent of their army across, but they all got mowed down pretty much. Another cool fact about the Polish surrender is that as several units were leaving the city, the SS lined up to salute them! I thought that that was pretty interesting.
Allies: We will defend Poland
1939 Comes
Poland: Where ya at
Allies have left the chat

Don't play with Poland. When you will be holding west, Russia came in to anal rape. Impossible to win. ;)
The dodo water tour guide. Probably the best way I’ve seen that worded in the history videos I’ve seen of the uprising.
9:10 you forgot to mention that the Alps speak swiss ;)
French or German

I have been waiting for this!
Germany: I want 🇨🇿🇦🇹🇵🇱 france,Britain: no....fine!
I swear I read books about uprising that didn’t have all those facts and made it look like poles just foolishly rose up with no plan .
And jokes made me craic several times .
Good job
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
You should make a video on the American revolution...
*And blame it on the Russians*
Awesome dude thanks. Hopefully this will blow up!
Thank you!
As a kid i compared Poland as the dude who is sitting between two fat women in the plane...
still do
I love your videos keep up the hard work!
Knock knock , ze flammerwerfer
Poland have such a sad history man >:( Thank you for making this funny animation xD
The sewers speak Polish. That's why only Poles get to become plumbers because they can communicate with the sewer
Nice video mate! I'm new to the channel and I think I'm slowly getting addicted to it. Keep on the nice work!
Do one of 9/11
Warsaw Uprising: Poles outnumbered and outgunned were supposed to fight a couple of days, fought over TWO months.
Fall of France: French had better equipment, more less the same amount of soldiers, and great defensive lines. They were supposed to win, surrendered in ONE AND HALF month.

Its actually the best video about warsaw uprising, seriously the polish are trying to learn everyone about their history but you did it 10x better
Thank you! That means a lot.
@@HistoryHouseProductions secret pro tip: if you want more subs, make more videos about polish history, polish are obsessed with it
Fun fact after the uprising polish soldiers and German worked together to evacuate civilians from the city
Some of the civilians ended up in work camps
And u failed to mention that ukrainians soldiers were killing polish civilians sometimes against greman orders
And German focused on hospitals they were bombing them and they were killing doctors and nurses they also burned alive sick or wounded people form the hospitals
"When the Winged Hussars arrive!" the get shot down by artillery....
Aww Hungarians :3
Do an entire video about Miklos Horthy and Hungary during WWII
I have a video on Hungary between the wars
Welp, sometimes people just disappear in democracies
I wish my history teachers were this good. Thanks random youtuber I accidentally stumbled upon while trying to keep my sanity during the coronavirus self quarantine.
Haha! Thank you! Stay safe!
I love most of the history channels on TH-cam but this is by far one of my favorites. Also damn I feel bad for Poland like they deserve some serious “WINS” soon to balance out all the monumental historical “L’s” they’ve taken
L implies also moral L so no
I was feeling so down today, this video cheered me up! Thanks HHP
Doo doo water tour guide.
Im learning new things here.
I’m not sure if it’s appropriate or even how you do it but I love that I learn and laugh (maybe we are both bad people) at historical events........ that really aren’t funny. We have a very similar sense of humor. Keep up the good work!!!!
I think that it’s important to laugh a little even at tragic events. It makes them more approachable for people.
The Tet celebrations are making my ears go kaboom
I knew that Poland was betrayed by her allies during WWII, but I had no clue that the United States played any part in that. That shames me deeply. Though we became closer and closer from 1980 until the present day, which I am very proud of, I see no reason whatsoever for Britain and France to have betrayed her. The Poles are a great, strong, courageous, and freedom loving people and I'm very thankful that President Trump declared them an ally of the United States. 🇵🇱🇺🇸 Great video, as always. Please keep the outstanding videos coming and God bless you, my friend!
Poland Hungary relationship is worth a video
I have a wz. 29 in my collection. I like to imagine that maybe it was there.
That’s really cool!
