Allenstein is the correct English language name

[edit]

The correct English language name is in actual fact 'Allenstein'. The Slavic Polish name of 'Olsztyn' is not phonetic in English speak and has obviously been forced into usage since post 1948 onwards for all the obvious reasons. This part of Germany became a part of Poland after WW2 but this did not mean the English language became a part of Poland. Allenstein it is whether Poles accept that historical fact or not.
