Footnotes

Under the terms of two decrees by Hitler (October 8 and October 12, 1939), large areas of western Poland were annexed to Germany. Much of the rest of Poland was organized into the Generalgouvernement (General Government) of Poland, under German administration, while eastern Poland was annexed by the Soviet Union. The annexations were not recognized by any other nation.

Baltic states were annexed after world War II and the Allies accepted it as de facto if not de jure.

The Golan Heights and East Jerusalem were annexed by Israel. However, these annexations have not been recognised by any other nation who consider them to be in violation of International Law (Fourth Geneva Convention: Article 6 =>Article 47 ) and therefore still regard them as being Israeli occupied.
