In your dreams maybe. From 1327, whole Tesinsko was part of the Czech lands. In 1/1919, it were the polish units who started a war, and you signed peace in 1920 because or your aggresive plans on the east

Wrong. Tesinsko (Ducatus Tessinensis, Śląsk Cieszyński) was a part Silesia (Śląsk) under the rule kings of the Czech, but it wasn't part of the Czech. Silesia and Czech is not the same... Tesinsko/Śląsk Cieszyński to 1653 was ruled by the local branch of Piast dynasty (Polish Royal dynasty) and a majority of the area's population was Polish according. After the end of World War I Czechoslovakia in 1919 invaded Poland and annexed Zaolzie (part of Tesinsko/Śląsk Cieszyński) with polish majority. In 1938 Zaolzie was annexed by Poland. After World War II, Zaolzie incorporated into Czechoslovakia within its 1920 borders.

The Poles got a bit of revenge courtesy of the Allies in my opinion. To my knowledge Berlin, Dresden and Cologne were bombed to sh*t and looked like Warsaw after the war. As the Krauts were being kicked out of Poland, the Russian army (along with some Poles) was killing the retreating invaders and the Russians raped hundreds of thousands of German women. Decades after. these women developed deep psychological issues towards sex. According to the history books over 3 million Germans died in WWII. Russia also lost around 20 million people through murder and starvation which is an astronomical number. But proportionally and percentage wise, Poland suffered the most (cuz of the smaller country population). Poland has made an amazing transformation since then.

What is this? A contest on who had the most people killed?

Civilians were slaughtered without mercy in Poland.
Civilians were slaughtered (both by Nazis and allied forces) in Germany.
End of story.

That's the court of law which was designed by Budzynski, Badowski and Kowalewski.

@ Darhet: How do you like the architecture of Budzynski, Badowski and Kowalewski?

Really impressive pictures

What were pre-war predictions in terms of population growth in future years and city development ?

It's not like they were just standing there looking at the fire... I don't think it was THAT interesting for them.
