@jegga Have you heard of the TimeGhost youtube channel?
They've done a weekly World War 1 video series (10-20 minute episodes) discussing what happened in the week in "real time". The whole series is complete.
They started the WW2 version last year so it will be running for a few more years yet.
They also do videos on the inter war years and specific topics.
There's a lot of stuff you're already going to know but they're good series with interesting tidbits of information and good presenters.

@Nepia I’m probably going to start with the Versailles too harsh one . I’ve been reading about the Freikorps and the power plays in post war Germany.
The returning German soldiers got a parade when they got home which was something I was unaware of, the attitude seems to have been that they weren’t beaten but sold out by their leaders .

Yeah, that's an interesting one, the inter war series is really good as you get to see all the different groups/movements/personalities of that time. I was unaware of the (relatively) small civil wars and various armed clashes in a host of countries at that time.

Yeah , the Soviet Union vs Poland isn’t one that gets a lot of stuff written about it .
