23h 52min, aug 26, 1939 y - Molotov-Ribbentrop pact signed

Description:

The German and Russian Superpowers signed a nonaggression pact, fueling Polish fears of invasion. The agreement also included a secret segment about how Poland will be divided. Many outside observers believe that the agreement is an opening move against poland, while others believe that the agreement is doomed to fail, citing how both Hitler's and Stalin's goals will inevitably clash. French officials relax, believing that they are now safe from invasion by the Germans. The British meanwhile, continue to prepare for war, getting ready for a quickly approaching war.
