My beautiful homeland by Kaja and DominikaMonika Ch
This document provides an overview of the different regions of Poland, beginning with the authors' small hometown located among 13 villages, then describing the northern coast along the Baltic Sea, the cities near the sea including Gdansk and Sopot, the many lakes of Masuria in the northeast, the central provinces around Warsaw, the capital city of Warsaw, the heights and cities in central Poland, Wroclaw which was named Capital of Culture in 2016, the Holy Cross Mountains in the southwest, cities in the south like Krakow and Rzeszow, and concluding with the high Tatras Mountains in the south which are a popular winter destination.
The Enigma machine was a series of electro-mechanical rotor cipher machines created in 1918 and used commercially and by the military. Polish, French, and English scientists worked to decrypt Enigma messages in the early 1920s, with three Polish students solving the mystery of how Enigma encoded messages in 1932. As the Germans learned their messages were not secure, they improved the machine and encryption methods, requiring the Allies to continue working to decrypt messages during World War II from centers like Bletchley Park. Thanks to the efforts of Polish, English, and French scientists, the Allies were ultimately able to read messages encrypted by Enigma by the end of the war.
