Poland Overview
Poland is a parliamentary republic in eastern central Europe with the capital Warsaw. Most of the country consists of lowlands. In the south, Poland has a share in the Sudetes and Carpathians. There is a moderate transitional climate from oceanic climate in the west to continental climate in the east. 97% of the population are Poles, only a very small proportion of the population belong to minorities of Germans, Ukrainians or Belarusians. The population is rooted in the Catholic faith.
Poland adopted Latin Christianity in the 10th century and became a kingdom in 1025. Through the three Polish partitions in the 18th century, the Polish territory was divided between Prussia, Austria and Russia. Only after the First World War did Poland regain its statehood. During the Second World War, around 6 million Poles, half of them Jews, lost their lives under the German occupation. After the war ended, Poland became a member of the Soviet Union-ruled Eastern Bloc. At the end of the 1980s, Poland broke away from the Eastern Bloc under the influence of the Solidarność trade union. In 1997 the country adopted a new constitution.
With the privatization of commercial enterprises and the conversion to the market economy from 1990 onwards, heavy industry and hard coal mining fell into a deep crisis. The service sector and the consumer goods industry, on the other hand, experienced an enormous upswing.
In terms of foreign policy, Poland shows close ties to the USA and neighboring European countries. The country has been a member of NATO since 1999 and of the European Union since 2004. Within the EU, Poland is one of the so-called Visegrád countries, which represent a restrictive refugee policy.

Vegetation
The flora belongs to the Central European deciduous and mixed forest zone. The forests, which used to dominate the area, now only cover 30% of the country’s area. The dry, nutrient-poor sandy soils are home to pine forests and mixed pine and oak forests. In contrast to the remains of natural mountain conifer forests in the Sudeten region, the pine-beech forests and spruce forests are often cultivated forests. Oak-hornbeam forests and pure beech forests occur in favorable locations; Alder forests and natural grasslands interspersed with willows and poplars dominate in swamp areas. In the Carpathian Mountains (especially in the High Tatras), partly in the Sudeten Mountains as well, high mountain flora occurs; bogs are common in northern Poland. Relics of a Central European primeval forest are preserved in the Bialowiezer Heide (Puszcza Białowieska) in the border area with Belarus. Check cellphoneexplorer to see Top 10 Sights in Poland.
