Poland, from its centenary to the fall of communism
Abstract
Poland is an important country of the European Union, we celebrate the centenary of its independence. In order to analyze more rigorously some of its current actions, this article analyzes some of the most important aspects of its history in the 20th century. From the conquest of its independence in 1918 until the fall of communism in 1989 and the recovery of its freedoms. The importance of the Catholic Church and of St. John Paul II in the preservation of the cultural and religious identity of the Polish people is indicated. It is not a very different country from the rest of the European contour, but it faces different responses to common challenges, and this nuance is the result of a particular hard history, without whose understanding it is difficult to understand the current reality.
