I mean, Poland's independence was secured by Germany, if anything you bow to the Saxons of the west. ;o
The Finns assassinated the Tsar, my friend. Poland could only have been independent for 8 years now, and I doubt the Germans could have had anything to do with it.
I suspect that if this is anything like the last RP, there will be commies up that way by Finland. But maybe I'm overly cautious.
