On September 1, 1939, Germany invaded Poland and started World War II.
The Germans attacked from the ground and air using a tactic dubbed Blitzkrieg, resulting in a quick and decisive victory, despite the defiant Polish defense. The cities of Katowice, Krakow, Tczew and Tunel were attacked with incendiary bombs; Poznan was battered by the main body of the German Reich's forces, and border towns fell to occupation. Soon after, air raids on the capital Warsaw began at 09:00 AM local time.
World War II officially began.
