Free City of Danzig (1920–1939)

The Free City of Danzig, which includes the city itself and the area around it, was created as a state entity on January 10, 1920 by the Treaty of Versailles. Before the First World War, it was part of the German Empire, and even earlier it was the free Hanseatic city of Gdansk.
Danzig was not subordinate to either Germany or Poland (it was only part of a customs union with the Polish Republic), but it was not independent either, but was under the protectorate of the League of Nations.

Throughout its existence, numerous problems (primarily trade) arose between Poland and Danzig. The situation was aggravated by the fact that the city's population was predominantly German. After Hitler came to power, the Nazi Party gained great influence in city government. After Hitler's army invaded Poland, the city declared itself part of Germany.

After the war, the city was transferred to the Polish Republic under the historical name of Gdansk.
