I would be interested if there was a closer camaraderie between Hungarian and Polish soldiers (who fought in the newly formed Polish Legion), but I've no data about it. Trianon parted us, no more common frontier, Hungary became isolated, and our foreign politics concentrated on the revision of Trianon, while they tried to rebuild the destroyed and plundered country. Poland was a freshly restored state, it's land was a battlefield during the Great War, reorganizing, rebuilding was the chief immediate goals after the war. As for foreign relations, it was friendly, both country held the other important in what-if scenarios. Poland generally pursued peaceful relations with their neighbours, tho it had conflicts with Czechoslovakia, just like us, in case of an open conflict we could regard each other as allies. Since Poland saw the threat in the Soviet Union, Romania was a potential ally on that front, so they tried to sooth our conflict with them. There were quite a few loose federal concepts in the minds of some politicians when they thought about the future of the Central Eastern European countries (sometimes supplemented with Italy in their calculations), but these theories were closer to fantasy than reality. By '39 Poland expressed concerns that Hungary got too close to Berlin, but after the first revision we got back the eastern parts of the lost Upper Hungary, the common joy of restoring a part of the thousand years old border won over the bad feelings. Our leadership furthermore told to both Polish and German diplomats that we won't participate in a war against Poland and won't allow German troops through our lands either - our politicians referred to the traditional friendship. In secret we also warned Poland about the German attack. Civilian ties weren't severed either, the Hungarian-Polish organizations worked on during this period. And some provided a mean when Hungarian volunteers wished to fight on the Polish side, right after the war broke out.
