=== Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact Contents === [[File:Spheresofinfluenceaugust.png|thumb|Delineation of the 'Spheres of Influence' as agreed to in August 23rd, 1939]] On August 23rd, 1939, an non-aggression agreement between Germany and the Soviet Union was formulated. The text states that: * The USSR and Germany promise not to attack, or commit aggression, against one another. * If one Party is at war with a third Power, then the other Party should not lend support to that third Power. * Both Parties should maintain contact in the future for the purpose of dialogue to exchange information between each other. * No Party should take part in any grouping of powers that is either directly or indirectly aimed at the other Party. * If conflict arises between both Parties, they should settle their disputes through discussion. * This treaty is concluded for 10 years. * This treaty should be ratified ASAP and ratification will take place in Berlin.<ref name=":2" /> In 1946, a 'Secret Additional Protocol' was found to the Pact. This 'secret protocol' outlines the Soviet and German 'spheres of influence' along a line extending from the northern boundary of Lithuania, and extending across the Narev, Vistula, and San rivers in Poland. In Bessarabia, the German side declares a 'political disinterestedness' in these areas. Many midwit retards claim that this 'divided up Eastern Europe'. This is not true, and is discussed below.
