[quote user="jk10"]Wroclaw (or German Breslau during the war).[/quote] Not only during the war - the city became Polish by the same stupid act of Mr. Churchill, the at the time of decision already terminally ill Mr. Roosevelt and a Russian bloke named Josip Vissarionovich Jughashvili. My mother´s family had been living there for 500 years. Nearly all of them were killed in the bombing of Dresden on February 13th, 1945, where they had seeked refuge from the onslaught of the Soviet Red Army. The Polish have an interesting way of creating a Polish history for cities and towns which were genuinely German. Nowa Ruda´s name is Neuenrode. Sorry I had to correct you!
