So as it presumed - no facts of considerable polish resistance.
FYI Poland got some territories from Czechoslovakia in 1938 using the same scheme as USSR in 1939.
About WWII start :
It was nothing more than real politics
First you should agree that Poland was USSR enemy number 3 that times.
Second, Western countries didn't show any serious intentions to deal with USSR against Germany in 1939. Nobody in Kremlin wanted to fight Germans alone, especially for adverse poles.
Even Polish allies,UK and France were not eager to help Poland in September 39 because of different reasons.
So it was no other way for Soviets but signing the treaty and getting the territories.
It makes Germans to waste some valuable time in 1941 and saved Russia and eventually the whole european continent, putting it lightly.
The price was high for small eastern european countries. It meant occupation for 40 years
But what's better - be alive under commies or dead under nazis?
