What happens
Established by the Treaty of Versailles in 1920, the Free City of Danzig has, until today, been an independent nation under the protection of the Polish state. However, with tensions mounting around the German-Polish border and the refusal of the Danzig government to allow Polish trade through the city port, the Polish government has declared today that Danzig is no longer a free city. Already the streets of Danzig are being filled with Polish soldiers with the sole mission of increasing the state’s power over the city. Albert Forster and many other Nazi party members have gone into hiding, and there is talk of a rebellion and eventual defection to Germany.
