Mar-19-05    Benzol: I couldn't find Lwow in my atlas but here's a link to info about the city. http://www.polishroots.org/history/... Mar-19-05    nikolaas: <benzol> Perhaps you shuld search for Lvov. Mar-19-05    Benzol: <nikolass> The idea did occur to me but I didn't think Poland extended that far into the Ukraine in 1917. Dec-23-05    EmperorAtahualpa: <Benzol> I don't mean to be picky here, but back then it was not a matter of "Poland extending into Ukraine". The whole territory was in dispute at the time.... We might just as well speak of Ukraine extending into what should be Poland! Dec-23-05    Koster: There is book about that called I believe "Fire on the Steppe" by Henryk Sienkiewicz, describes war between Poles and Ukranians. Dec-29-07    brankat: Further to the above, a couple of things that come to mind: -- United we stand, divided we fall. -- "Divide et impera." Dec-29-07    whiteshark: Player of the day ALFRED TARNOWSKI died 24. November 2003 in Krakow Source: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred...
