	Curzon Line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Curzon Line was a demarcation line proposed in 1919 by British Foreign Secretary Lord Curzon of Kedleston as a possible armistice line between Poland to the west and the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (Russian SFSR) to the east during the Polish-Soviet War of 1919–20.
		It is sometimes said that the Curzon Line represented an ethnic border between Roman Catholic Poland to the west and Russian Orthodox Ukraine and Belarus to the east.
		The altered Curzon Line thus became the permanent eastern border of Poland and was recognised by the western Allies in July 1945.

	George Nathaniel Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston Summary
		George Curzon was the epitome of this system, and it was useful to his political and social ambitions before World War I. Afterward, however, he was hurt by his connection with it and by his inconsistent actions that bordered on opportunism in his late drive for government leadership.
		Curzon was the principal government spokesman on foreign affairs in the House of Commons.
		Curzon was out of politics except as a member of the House of Lords, until he was included in the wartime coalition government formed in May 1915.

	Frontiers - Artificial Frontiers
		Sometimes it was a razed or depopulated or devastated tract of country; at others a debatable strip between the territories of rival powers: or, again, a border territory subject to and defended by one party, though exposed to the ravages of the other.
		Similar lines have been employed to define the boundaries of Canada and Alaska, to separate many of the Australian Colonies from each other, to determine European Spheres of Influence or Protectorates in Africa, and, quite recently, to define the Russian and Japanese shares of the island of Saghalin.
		Such lines are very tempting to diplomatists, who in the happy irresponsibility of their office-chairs think nothing of intersecting rivers, lakes, and mountains, or of severing communities and tribes.

		Was the "Curzon Line" Proposed as a Frontier?
		Thus, the Curzon line was proposed by the Allies exclusively as an armistice line, and at no time was there even a suggestion that it was a frontier line, nor was any attempt made to settle the frontier problem.
		It is most important to note that the Declaration of December 8, 1919, and Lord Curzon's proposal of July 10, 1920, concerned only territories which in 1914 were under Russian rule, having been annexed by her in the partitions of Poland in the XVIII century (See Map).

		In 1919 an axis known as the Curzon line (after George Nathaniel Curzon, the United Kingdom's foreign secretary) was proposed at Versailles by the Allied Powers to divide Poland from a then nascent Western Ukrainian National Republic (ZUNR) to settle the question of eastern Galicia.
		Although Poles subjected Ukrainians in Galicia to a pacification campaign, in direct violation of the Treaty of Versailles, nevertheless Ukrainians in the territory were spared Stalinist depredations for about 18 years, until the Curzon line was revived in the secret Nazi-Soviet partition of Poland in 1939.
		Then, on August 16, 1945, Edward Osobka Morawski, the provisional prime minister of Poland, traveled to Moscow, to sign the treaty establishing the Curzon line (with some deviations in favor of the Poles) as the Soviet-Polish frontier.
