    In short, USSR attacked Finland and occupied a part of its territory. The war was never mentioned in Soviet history books.

    im well aware of the winter war and continuation war, but i heard a really interesting take on the winter war different from the usual "harr harr HUUUGE USSR failure, 10 finns killed 500,000 soviets XD"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcYnOofxy1I - basically that they didnt collapse, despite extreme losses and did not ever have mass unit surrenders, but did fight and die. further, that n4zi germany failed to realize this when they planned for barbarossa and how certain leaders claimed "kick in the front door of the USSR and the whole rotten structure will collapse on itself"

    and as we know, that didnt happen.
