Historically in 1939 the Polish were allied with the Romanians when Germany invaded in addition to the British and French. The polish government decided not to activate the alliance in favor of using the small romanian border as a point of resupply when the Army would fall back to defend the south east of poland in the much more defensible turrain. This was hoped to give the Army a chance to stalemate the germans from taking over all of poland while the French and British opened a second front to the west.
Historically the plan went to hell due to the Soviet entry into the war, so the bridgehead wouldent have the soviet border at their back nice and safe.
But seeing as the alliance did exist, and under other leaders or conditions might have been fully activated, why is it not depicted as a national focus for Poland? The Alliance with Britian and France is there, but not Romania. True Romanian alliance may not have given the German or Soviet leaderships much cause for concern, but it may have been the basis for a Greater Faction to build, perhaps Estonia, Latvia, Finish could join the "Stuck in the Middle Pact".
