    Nazis hadn’t taken all of Poland, just parts of it. In the end both got the parts of Poland they had agreed upon (with the Lithuania thing affecting it too).

      The Nazis didn’t take all of Poland because the Soviets went in. The Nazis even over-extended at Brest, which the Soviet approach caused them to withdraw.

        I mean it’s all according to the agreement. Both “went in” and took the agreed parts, shook hands, done.

          There was no agreement for both to “go in,” no formal plan to do so, and World War II certainly wasn’t “done” afterwards.

            I meant they agreed to divide Poland’s area according to the lines mentioned “if something happened to it (heh)”. So stopping the attack and handing over extra parts are all according to keikaku.

            World War II certainly wasn’t “done” afterwards

            No I meant dividing Poland part from the agreement.

              1. Why did the Soviets move in to Poland?

              2. Why not fully agree to joint-invasion in a secret section of the pact?

              You have no answers for this, again, you seem to be arguing that the Nazis should have been allowed to extend the Holocaust to all of Poland, including the areas Poland annexxed from Lithuania and Ukraine.

                #1 Soviets probably wanted their part. And I’m not sure what benefit there would’ve been in #2 that they didn’t get this way.

                  1. No, lmao. The Soviets had little economic incentive to invade, their economy was a planned one and not one that relied on colonization like the Nazis. Get a better answer.

                  2. They didn’t agree to an invasion in the pact, that’s why.

                    But invade they did and got their part. As agreed.

                    Why not fully agree to joint-invasion in a secret section of the pact?

                    They didn’t agree to an invasion in the pact, that’s why.

                    It doesn’t really answer the question of what benefit there would’ve been to “fully agree to joint-invasion” when they got everything they wanted to out of the pact with the postponed invasion
