@@elkapusto2414 to nic. Już w 1919 bolszewicy byli na tyle silni i zorganizowani , że przeprowadzali ofensywę na inne państwo zamiast zajmować się walką z pozostałymi niedobitkami białych. To jest trochę brzydkie przedstawienie "że Polacy razem z białymi próbowali obalić komunizm" bo to sugeruje, że to Polacy zaatakowali w 1919 sprzymierzając się z wewnętrznymi wrogami Rosji. A było na odwrót. Prawda jest taka, że Polacy Rosjan czy to białych czy czerwonych mieli daleko w nosie. A może gdybyśmy więcej wysiłku wtedy włożyli w destabilizację ZSRR to nie byłoby tego co było 19 lat później.
I think it's sad that the story directly following ww1 is rarely discussed, it's just "Germany capitulated and now ww1 is over"
But the fighting continued and treaties took months to negociate, which we often forget
Yeah it was really only the Western Front that saw peace, basically everywhere else in Europe erupted into civil war and chaos.
1918 is just a convenient date for history books to avoid the complexities that would blow apart the minds of the 14 year olds in school. WWI effectively went up to at least 1923, if we consider that the fight in places like Germany, Hungary and Turkey are just continuations of the overall war.
@@Igor_054 Eh, I wouldn't say they were part of World War I, but rather conflicts caused by it. It'd be like including the Chinese Civil War and Korean War in World War II.
@@reubenmatthews5615 Korean War and Chinese Civil War had former WWII allies fighting each other, so they're not really continuations of the same war. Hungary vs Romania, as well as Turkey vs Greece, UK, France and Italy, however, were the continuations of the same war. And if you consider the peace documents that ended WWI, they were all signed by 1919 or later, not 1918. Trianon, for instance, was signed on 1920, because the war in Hungary was simply not over before that. This didn't happen in WWII, all peace agreements were over by 1945.
An example of war that I consider as a fall out of WWI, instead of a continuation, is the Polish-Soviet war.
The armistices were signed in 1918, that's why. Officially the war went on because an armistice is just a cessation of hostilities but 11 November 1918 is a nice memorable date to say "this is when the fighting officially ended."

It's interesting how people have this idea of everyone being sick of fighting after witnessing the horrors of war and then things being different over night when in reality there was another three years of all sorts of wars.
th-cam.com/video/0R2JCVLrYaU/w-d-xo.html
Not everyone was sick of war - Poles knew, that in this time it's the only way to secure them and their borders from new Partition.
Most of the war in the western front wad fought in France and Belgium. So the german population, except the soldiers, didnt experience the horrors of War on their land. They did however suffer from the indirect consequences of the war via blockade of the British navy
@@Daniel-jm7ts and you be both right and wrong: it's right, that most of WW1 was on Western front. However, such scenes as in West, along with massive bombardments of our cities (e.c. Warsaw, or Kalisz), and Russian Scorched Earth tactic, were also on Eastern border - which means, that mostly in Poland. France actually accured less damage due to this war, than Polish lands.

@@johnrex9612 That is true, but at some point the Germans had an army standing right by the border ready to reconquer Wielkopolska and Poznań/Posen after the Powstanie Wielkopolskie/Greater Poland Uprising. The army could completely crush the Poles, but the French warned the Germans that if they enter Wielkopolska they would restore hostilities, which Germany could not afford. The Poles fought bravely, but if not for the French, I do not think we would have been able to hold on to that territory.

I am not crying there is a Christmas Truce stuck in my eye
Two mistakes:
First Silesian Uprising has bad location
Third Silesian was against German, not Allies
@@theremapping3840
Allies almost do nothing and occupied too little territories there to be considered as whole region.
Region was quickly sized by insurgents to the west and there the front moved several times until the truce.
@@theremapping3840
Map is very wrong. It doesn't even consider major battles of this uprising !
No pink-yellow border in Upper Silesia.
It looks like Poles where fighting Allies, which is absurd.
In fact, the local population fought against the Freikorps from distant Germany.
The map doesn't even consider at least 2 German counter-attacks, which broke 2 truces !
And this is only May and beginning of June.
Third truce was the last. By 5 July, all insurgent troops were withdrawn.
@PowerfulCranberry
1
Polish insurgents were not majority unlike in Freikorps.
Most were local people oppressed economically, legally for the last 50 years if not more by Prussia.
As you have already noticed, Polish support was meager
and conflict did not suit Polish government at the time of the uprising.
Most of Freikorps were recruted through whole Germany from ex Imperial soldiers,
hundreds of kilometers from Silesia in straight line.
2
The results of the plebiscite are known
- most people in different counties did not vote to be in German State.
Exceptions were some pockets
and disagreement was to draw a line in which the pockets were on the German side,
but most of the areas remained in Germany against their will
like Strzelce Opolskie / Groß Strehlitz and Toszek-Gliwice / Tost-Gleiwitz
which anyway were taken by Germany.
Because of this, an uprising broke out.
it didn't explode for fun - it was directed against oppressive German rule.
@@Dariusz_1.618
The majority voted to stay as a part of Germany at that time.
The third uprising was supported by polish gov and officers were send to silesia to lead the locals. French entente troop didn't do much to act as a referre back then.
If Germany would have been a federal state with a more inclusive policy regarding minorities, situation would have been very different.
Whatever the outcomes, still interesting to see how Silesia is influenced by the German and as well Czech culture as of Today.
@@morty844
1.
No majority.
Look on counties map.
Most of them voted for not being in Germany.
More, many Germans came from the west to vote for Germany.
Sounds fimiliar like Russians brought their compatriots from the interior
to vote for the admission of Ukrainian Oblasts to Russia.
2.
Wasn't supported by Polish state/government.
Polish support was meager
and conflict did not suit Polish government at the time of the uprising.
They didn't act on orders from the command, they were volunteers.
Polish insurgents were not majority unlike in Freikorps.
In short it was Silesian workers/farmers vs Freikorps.
3.
Yes, but over 140 years before 1945 they weren't.
4.
After World War II Silesia become monocultural such as Greater Poland or Mazovia.
Same in the Czechoslovakia - the Sudeten Germans were expelled.
For over 7 years, Germany has been a threat to states
and especially the inhabitants of the German eastern territories mostly supported the NSDAP,
so there was no room for a peaceful existence for such aggressive masses.
This video pretty much nails it all down! Great Work!
I just would like to add that the Rhein and Ruhr regions were occupied by France *after* the inflation in 1923 because Germany couldn't pay the reparations. They were not occupied from the beginning on

Most people discussing it are communists I've found. Everyone else seems to want to forget what happened during that time 😅
After seeing this video and seeing the actual expansion of Interwar Poland following November 11th, 1918, it would be nice to see a Every Day video on the (Second/Interwar) Republic of Poland [November 11th, 1918 to October 6th, 1939], and maybe the (Regency) Kingdom of Poland [January 14th, 1917 to November 11th, 1918]. Too bad it hasn't been made yet (Best thing right now is every year.)
I like the animation of czech-sudeten civil war. This part of history is rudely erased from czech history learn-books, but very clearly explains the coclusion of 1938.
Yeah, 1918-1920 was really messy in Europe.

I like how Poland is fighting a deadly war with the Bolsheviks in the background
2:05-3:45 Who are the entente forces in Silesia? Czechoslovakia?
It's hurt every second of it, but nice video
Wilhelm II was a fool in every sense of the word. He ousted Bismarck and put Germany in a terrible position.
Yes
Saddest video in the world
Great Video
I been wanting to make this a long time but don't now exactly how anyways, good video!!!
In 2:43 Germany is losing part of its lands to Denmark (15 Jun 1920). But there is no information as to why.
Given by Varsailles. It was territory they lost in 1864.
@@jamesperkins191 no it was lost because of a referendum where the population decided to join denmark
@@Daniel-jm7ts Yeah, but it was in a League Plebicite area
Greetings from your old ally, Turkey. My German brothers.
Was the Armenian genocide worth it or did you still collapse?
@@solarsatan9000 How is he supposed to know that?
He wasn’t even alive back then.
@@solarsatan9000 Is that the only thing you know about turkish history? Or are you just a scumbag spamming genocide whenever you see the word Turkey?
From Turkey, the old Ottomans. Strong enemies, reliable allies. Greetings from germany!
@@brand0231 yes
A very interesting video, thank you for this one on a so unknown part of the history of Europe.
Did not realise there was a brief Soviet Alsace-Lorraine, or the Poles seized all of Posen province, or there was a communist uprising against the Bavarian republic, or the Poles fought the Entente in Upper Silesia. Amazing.
we did not size nothing polish pepole in the province rebeled sucesfully agianst germany and were joined to poland becuse they wanted to and becuse france was a bit of german hater at the time
@@michaekrynicki8330 - yeah I meant the Poles of Posen seized control of their own province.
Actually, Silesians fought german Freikorps in Upper Silesia. The map is not clear enough on that topic
It's End. Like all good things. I stop the video when monarchists disappeared. After i would have found only pain.
Why isn't Lithuania colored on the map. There was some serious conflicts occuring in the region and in Prussia from Prussian-Lithuanians who wanted freedom from Germany
Also in Latvia, which was shortly occupied by German Forces
Because it's about Germany, the country. And the conflicts in the Memel region are shown. What isn't shown are the German troops in the Baltics, and that's because they were not the focus of this video.
Hello ETS, I've got a question. Where do you get your maps, I know you keep saying DK Atlas of World History, but when i try to find a website that has maps from DK Atlas, it only shows me the DK books, but I'm only looking for maps on the computer. If you know the site, please let me know. Thank you.
Well, DK Atlas of World History *is* a book I own. So I don't know of an online version of that atlas. Sorry. :/

You were first youtuber that I subscribed. I just wanted to say thank you for everything that you done, i am following you since 2012
Okay, just wanted to ask.
Miracle on the Vistula cameo 3:05
I would love some documentation about this period in history. Not only in Germany, but also the similar collapse in Austria Hungary. There's basically no documentation on what exactly was happening, and if anyone has any, please link some in the replies to this comment.
Check out the "Between Two Wars" videos by TimeGhost. They also have a week-by-week WW1 channel called "The Great War" that continues after WW1 to cover the fallout.
lol, 2/3 of the things in this video were not part of my history lessions. am am german btw.
From which state are you? We had this in Baden-Württemberg.
@@Egl3RioNCSGO We didn't learn that either. Lower Saxon here. We did *some* Weimar Republic (mostly Nazi Germany though) but the early, formative period of Weimar was just kinda left out.
@@Egl3RioNCSGO rlp, hatte nur den Matrosen aufstand, die Republikausrufungen in berlin, die verfassung, den kommunisten aufstand und den versaier vertrag, dass z.b. die Gebiete welche pro polen gestimmt haben vorher teils von den polen besetzt wurden wurde gekippt
@@Oliver-tb4jn It's the re-education program they started for you after ww2. You learn the "correct" form of history.
@@Oliver-tb4jn Bist du ganz sicher? Ich studiere Lehramt und war letztes jahr in einer neunten Klasse. Bei denen habe ich exakt dieses Thema gemacht (Es stand auch im Bildungsplan)
