Maritime and Colonial League - Outcome

Outcome

The League ceased to exist in September 1939, following joint German and Soviet aggression on Poland. After World War II, the new communist government was not interested in colonialism and the organization was reestablished in 1944 as Maritime League. In 1953 it was dissolved, then in 1981 recreated again as Maritime League. Since 1999 it has been called Maritime and River League.

In the spring of 2006, Polish artist Janek Simon went to Madagascar, looking back to the ideas of the interbellum period. He wanted to organized there the "Polish Year in Madagascar", instead, two exhibitions took place.

Famous quotes containing the word outcome:

    ... the outcome of the Clarence Thomas hearings and his subsequent appointment to the Supreme Court shows how misguided, narrow notions of racial solidarity that suppress dissent and critique can lead black folks to support individuals who will not protect their rights.
    bell hooks (b. c. 1955)

    It is always the moralists who do the most harm. Abortion is the logical outcome of civilization, only the jungle gives birth and moulders away as nature decrees. Man plans.
    Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    These are days ... when a great cloud of trouble hangs and broods over the greater part of the world.... Then all about them, all about us, sits the silent, waiting tribunal which is going to utter the ultimate judgment upon this struggle.... No man is wise enough to produce judgment, but we call hold our spirits in readiness to accept the truth when it dawns on us and is revealed to us in the outcome of this titanic struggle.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
