What went wrong? Why based Poland failed?

>The idea of a Polish overseas empire was indeed very vivid during the inter-war period. For example, the Maritime and Colony League, which aimed to turn Poland into a colonial power, claimed that Poland ought to acquire 10% of the former German colonies. In 1937 a 10 year colonial agenda was compiled. It included systematic propaganda and scholarships for scientists interested in colonising, as well as credits and guarantees for those who were ready to take the risk and move out to Africa. Colonies were meant to be a panacea for all problems, including the Jewish one. In 1936 Polish government came to the conclusion that the only effective and ultimate solution to Polish-Jewish tensions was sending the Jews to Madagascar and making the island a new Palestine. Madagascar, however, was then a French colony and shortly after talks with French government had begun, Paris was buzzing with an anti-Polish campaign: newspapers were full of 'Madagascar a Polish colony? Never' and 'We don't want Polish Jews' - Poland failed again. Yet even increasing tensions and the threat of war in 1939 didn’t wake Poland up from the colonial dream. Warsaw asked embassies in Washington and London to find out which parts of Antarctica were still unoccupied and thus could become Polish.

>The Weekly Mirror, a Liberian newspaper, published in 1936: “And now Poland, which until 1914 was a colonial territory of three different countries and which was allowed to fulfil American president Wilson's rule of self-determination, needs colonies not in Europe but in Africa. (...) A former servant (…) wants to become a master in an African country.” This was the Liberian reaction to the Polish settlements started in Africa in 1934. Angered by the article, the Polish consul in Liberia asked Warsaw for directives “in case these squalid overindulgences [anti-Polish newspaper articles] of local pseudo-civilized and pseudo-democratic Niggers are repeated.” Warsaw demanded an end to the anti-Polish campaign, but in response were told that in Liberia no one could restrict freedom of speech. Eventually Polish pioneers had to depart, just as a few years earlier they were forced to leave Angola, a place described as highly suitable for Polish settlement in a letter of a Polish expedition: “In Angola (…) ‘white man’ doesn't do any physical work. Niggers do it.” However, Polish plans to buy Angola were opposed by the Portuguese, and the Poles were forced to abandon the country.

Why Poland not managed to take Portugal and French colonies? There was a major people movement, people of Poland demanded on street some colonies for their country, yet silly westerners not gave them any.
picrel: "we damand colonies for polan". Poor poland, always the victim.

Its written: Polish strength are in colonies.

Why westerners so greedy? Why you not gave some colonies to polan? Look at all these poor people.

You're right desu
We need overseas colonies too
Who would you recommend for gibsmedat?

Long 10 years pooland demanded some colonies from Portugal and France. There was people meetings, dressing, marches, government notes. All for nothing. And this at a time when the West had thousands of colonies. Tothing for the poor Poland.

You already has Russia as a cryptocolony, why you need more, mate?

It really is true, Ukraine is the king of butthurt

Its written: "poland demand colonies"

At least nobody can accuse us of colonialism. Phew

Why you not succeed? Why?

Idk. The Duchy of Courland was a vassal of the Commonwealth when it had its overseas empire. So pay up and take some refugees, slavlord.

Maybe if URL has not suck so much in the Kiev offensive we would have nice warm port of Odessa like Piłsudzki dreamed and we would have this Madagascar and Jews as a colonisatiors.
M8, we gave those nigers full citizenship.
Well, they were no noblemen (black and noble, lol) but they law status was equal to the pesant in mainland Poland.

Why you alowed all these bullyings from liberians, mate?
>The League was planning to promote a large-scale Polish settlement in the Black Republic. In December 1934, a group of Polish pioneers boarded the vessel S.S. "Poznań", which took them from Gdynia to Monrovia. The "Poznań" also carried Polish products for sale in Liberia, among them enameled chamber pots.[7] Polish farms were established in Liberia but did not bring large profits due to small investments flowing in from Poland. With time, Liberia became frightened by reckless articles in the Polish press that labeled the Black Republic as practically a Polish colony. In addition, the American press launched an anti-Polish campaign, perhaps inspired by the large corporation Firestone with interests in Liberia. By 1938, the League was forced to withdraw from Liberia.[8]

This went wrong. Poland fucked up as always.

Why you just take this crap from France, polanbros? Are you not asked politely enough?
>A special interest was shown in Madagascar, with a kind of historical claim provided by the 18th century Polish adventurer Maurice Benyovszky who had spent some years on that island and on one occasion been chosen a ruler by some of its inhabitants. Polish interest in Madagascar was fueled by the 1937 visit of Polish popular writer Arkady Fiedler to the Madagascar town of Ambinanitelo, where he lived for several months and on whose people's culture he later wrote a book which had considerable success among the Polish public. However, as France had no inclination to give up its rule of Madagascar in favor of Poland, this had no practical consequences.

>Maybe if URL has not suck so much in the Kiev offensive we would have nice warm port of Odessa like Piłsudzki dreamed and we would have this Madagascar and Jews as a colonisatiors.
Too bad, you have to leave Lviv instead. Poor polan. I'm from Odessa, by the way. Port is really warm and weather is awesome.

>peace plan
>just give up your territory mate and everything will be fine
>we promise we won't continue to snip more and more of it every 20 years :))

>just give up your territory
What territories you talking about, friend? Danzig was 95% german. Or it was a polish clay? I'm not so good in history of Polan.
Where all these civilian germans go, btw? Are they assimilated?

>Where all these civilian germans go, btw?
to the nice, cosy all-year housing sponsored by the polish state of course

Why u fight for crimea then?

Are we?

how does it feel to live in a made-up country that is neither part of eu nor the russian union with history and customs mostly stolen from other countries? :>

since when fighting means getting your ass handed to you on a plate because your army is congo-tier?

What do you think?

Warsaw Uprising best day of life.

>t. Polish diaspora
Why so salty, friends?

If only you were so kind to teach us your art of war

In retrospection, that's not a fail. Frenchies from colonies had the right to migrate freely into France and got free French citizenship.
Similarly with Britain.
Considering the pressure on Poland from the EU right now, if we had colonies, we would constantly be nagged to take in niggers from the colonies that we would have.

Dodged a bullet.

Why didn't you invest in Eastern Poland?

>Dodged a bullet.
That a Polan, always wins. Love You guys.

If you think about it, all our national misfortunes have ended up coming back to help us.
