History is my favourite subject, but there are some events which inspired me a lot. History of any country has an important role to play because it is a significant source of inspiration and knowledge for the upcoming generation.The recent significant events like 9/11 – World Trade Center attack, the invention of the telephone, the birth of Muhammad or Jesus Christ, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria are all significant historical events that have changed the world profoundly. For this cue card topic, I would like to talk about the ‘Invasion of Poland by Germany in 1939.’

This is a historic event that has changed the whole world drastically. If this did not occur, Hiroshima and Nagasaki would have been spared, World War II could have been avoided, several million people would not have to die, British would have ruled many parts of the world still today, the world superpower would have been different countries than those we see today, and we would have a different economic and political agenda these days. The cold war and Arms Race are thought to be triggered by this event and the world’s politics were changed and that would influence even the future world politics. All these major changes were the direct or indirect results of a single event – German’s decision to invade Poland.

This historic event is also known as the Poland Campaign. On September 01, 1939, German forces bombard Poland and Adolf Hitler of Germany was the mastermind for this invasion. As a result, World War II began.

World War II is one of the rare wars that has changed the world history, power, politics and still influences the future politics. From this regards, the invasion of Poland in 1939 is a highly influential historical event.
