  2. Polamd and Japan had extreamly good relations back then. Even better than Japan and Germany and they were allies

  5. During intrwar period Poland and Japan conducted many joint military and spy operations against Soviet union, even 100 years ago Russian threat united nations

  6. Some fun facts-

    Japan did not support Germany’s invasion of Poland.

    Japan maintained a positive relationship with the Polish government-in-exile and even secretly aided Polish resistance efforts.  Japan also refused to acknowledge Poland’s declaration of war in 1941, viewing it as a declaration made under duress by the British.
