    What was the german population anyway?

    Also we need to add Finn population, Romanians, Hungarians and large "other"

    I wonder if Soviet volunteers in German army are counted as German or Soviet losses?

    But their lines were overextended too. They had no plans to cross Wisla at that point.

    Their rate of advance was slowing significantly before they got to Praga (east side of Warsaw)

    They could have tried to do more to free Warsaw and with some success I am sure. But they had no such plans and they were not prepared for it. And then of course they did not want to help Capitalist goverment of Poland that fought them just 20 years ago.
