Gdańsk was founded by the Polish king, probably in 998 and for 1000 years of existence, 700 were under Polish control.

Nature in Poland is very lush and diverse. Poland also has the last primeval forest of Europe- Puszcza Białowieska, it is unique on a global scale. You can see European bison there, a very rare species that almost died out at the beginning of the 20th century.

It was inspiring and Poland is great country,I wonder why Lithuania isn't connected with Poland as one country,I wish it was.Well great podcast

Worth to mention that Hel is located on the most narrow split in Poland, where you can see water from both of your sides from a very short distance. There's a bus line to this town which has 666 number. No Kiding! PS Avoid this town during the summertime, if you want to get there by car. That's the most congested summer spot in Poland, because there's only one road to get to Hel thanks to the narrow split. I recommend a train:)

Just to correct stuff, our parents never learned Russian as a second language, it was always a foreign language. A second language is: "a language other than the mother tongue that a person or community uses for public communication, esp. in trade, higher education, and administration". That was never the case. The only official language everywhere in Poland postwar has always been Polish. There was simply no choice to learn any other European languages in schools, no choice unless you studied privately. We were not a part of the USSR, so Russian was just a foreign language imposed on us to learn since all " rotten capitalistic" languages were not in agreement with the at-the-time current socialistic/communistic worldview.

"There was simply no choice to learn any other European languages in schools, no choice unless you studied privately." - that's simply not true. English was taught in high schools. Russian, however, was compulsory and taught since the elementary school.

"Some of them are easy to pronounce like Warsaw and Krakow" - and proceeds to pronaunce it wrong :P. Maybe not that easy after all.....

You don't need to get english cert at uni, you don't even have to study english. You just have a foreign lang of your chosing + one foreign specialised for your study field

Very not informative video. Long. And wrong stats. 11 millions were displaced also internally. 6 millions crossed Polish border. At the end 1-2 millions stated.

I remember Poland when the centre of Warsaw was still a barely swept bombed out shell.
