Ich habe auf Propagandamaterialien des Dritten Reiches gestöbert r/PropagandaPosters kürzlich. Einige von ihnen zeigen Deutschlands Vision davon, wie Europa aussah (oder wie es aussehen sollte). Die traurige Schlussfolgerung ist, dass Polen als Land und als Nation absolut nichts verdiente. Polen sollte von der Landkarte gelöscht und durch Deutschland ersetzt werden. Es wurde ihm nicht einmal die Rolle eines sekundären Verbündeten, eines Satellitenstaates, der als Kanonenfutter nützlich war, zugestanden. Angeblich weiß das jeder, aber es ist besonders entmutigend, wenn man sieht, wie es sich so deutlich in der Nazi-Propaganda widerspiegelt.

Why would it be surprising that *Nazi* propaganda of all things wouldn’t include Poland on a map?
You understand the people you’re talking about here, right?
Poland didn’t exist for 100+ years pre-WW I. The Poland that existed between WW I and II (for ~21 years) was thus still in the German mind a very fresh ‚temporary‘ state of things. This isn’t to ‚excuse‘ this, but it is to provide a bit of an explanation…
Side note: You’ll note there are other missing countries: Switzerland and Greece come to mind.
Pictures like this should always be taken as being caricatures and with artistic adjustment/flare, and not as being 100% accurate…
?
Hard to include a country you recently conquered on a propaganda poster.. since all of these seem to be from the Barbarossa Invasion Period (so 1941~)
The comments here suggest that it’s so obvious, but with the distortion of history in recent years, it’s something that needs to be repeated and taught to the younger generations.
This is most likely because Poland was one of the few nations that was completely unwilling to collaborate with the Reich. All the nations represented in the fight had either collaborated with (France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Slovakia, Croatia) or been allied to the Reich (Spain, Italy, Finland, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria). The Poles were among some of the only nations to not have a Quisling type collaborator on a government level. Yugoslavia is also not represented for pretty much the same reason.
Hitler wanted to cooperate with Poland in the beginning. Same as he wasn’t to exterminate Jews in the beginning too. He planned to move them to Palestine, tho his motives were very clear, getting rid of every single of them. However, until the end of war, he cooperated with Zionists.
