From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Poland /ˈpəʊlənd/ (help·info) (Polish: Polska), officially the Republic of Poland (Rzeczpospolita Polska), is a country in Central Europe bordered by Germany to the west; the Czech Republic and Slovakia to the south; Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania to the east; and the Baltic Sea and Kaliningrad Oblast, a Russian exclave, to the north. The total area of Poland is 312,679 square kilometres (120,726 sq mi), making it the 69th largest country in the world and the 9th largest in Europe. Poland has a population of over 38 million people, which makes it the 34th most populous country in the world and the sixth most populous member of the European Union. The establishment of a Polish state is often identified with the adoption of Christianity by its ruler Mieszko I in 966, when the state covered territory similar to that of present-day Poland. The Kingdom of Poland was formed in 1025, and in 1569 it cemented a long association with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania by signing the Union of Lublin, forming the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The Commonwealth collapsed in 1795, and Poland's territory was partitioned among the Kingdom of Prussia, the Russian Empire, and Austria. Poland regained its independence as the Second Polish Republic in 1918, after World War I, but two decades later it was occupied by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union at the outbreak of World War II in September 1939. Poland lost over six million citizens in the war and emerged several years later as the People's Republic of Poland under Soviet influence. During the Revolutions of 1989, communist rule was overthrown, and soon after Poland became what is constitutionally known as the "Third Polish Republic". Poland is a unitary state, made up of sixteen Voivodeships (Polish: Województwo), Poland is a member of the European Union, NATO, the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

However, not being one of the most powerful countries in the world, other countries such as Australia haven't reported heaps about Poland's tragedy.

Answered by ol white biker - Fri Sep 11 18:52:04 2009 Did world war 2 start by Germany attacking Poland, and end with Japan surrendering after the atomic bombs?
Q. Why did Germany attack Poland in the first place? which countries were the last remaining to end the war? Asked by saphia321 - Wed May 28 18:26:52 2008 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments A. The second world war began on September 19, 1931, when Japan invaded Manchuria. (People often say the German invasion of Poland as the start. WW2 also included Japanese expansionism in the Pacific, so the invasion of China is the more accurate beginning.) You have the correct ending. At the end, it was pretty much Japan vs. everyone else, with the U.S. doing most of the fighting. (The Soviet Union declared war on Japan just before the surrender.) Germany invaded Poland to expand the Fatherland's territory. The whole moral justification behind the Nazi expansionism is to provide more living space (called liebesraum) for the Germanic race. Part of Poland had been germany in the past, so there was a historical justification, also. … [cont.] Answered by Year of the Dragon - Wed May 28 18:47:03 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Poland" PolandFrom Wikiquote Jump to: navigation, search Poland – that is to say, nowhere. — Alfred JarryPoland is a country in Central Europe.
