ABSTRACT
The divided Poland has been under the authority of three empires since 1795. The so-called "Polish-question" has not been an issue in the international diplomatic arena. The idea of an independent Poland is not in any of the empire's interests. However, that idea for a state formation with which a lawyer from Cologne surprises the professional bureaucrats in the first days of August would never occur to them. The lawyer suggests to the German government the establishment of a League of East European States in the case of victory, which would also function as a buffer zone between Germany and Russia, from Riga to Odessa. History has already drawn on the map of the various state formations of Central Europe, Central Eastern Europe or In-Between Europe; however, even more was dreamed upon it by politicians and intellectuals.
