3. Poland was established as a state under the Piast
dynasty, which ruled the country between the 10th
and 14th centuries. Historical records referring to the
Polish state begin with the rule of Duke Mieszko I.
Mieszko, whose reign commenced sometime before
963 and who continued as the Polish monarch until
his death in 992, chose to be baptized in the Western
Latin Rite, probably on 14 April 966, following his
marriage to Princess Doubravka of Bohemia a
fervent Christian. This event has become known as
the baptism of Poland, and its date is often used to
mark a symbolic beginning of Polish statehood.
Poland now has a new constitution which was
signed in 1997

13. FACTS OF POLAND
The name “Poland” derives from the name of the West Slavic tribe of Polans
(“Polanie”) which means “people living in open fields” (“pole” = field).
Poland is the 9th largest country in Europe.
Approximately 30% of the around 60 million Poles live outside Poland. Large
communities of Polish diaspora can be found in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland,
Germany, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Russia, Australia, Brazil and Argentina.
Krakow was the country’s capital and the place of coronation of Polish kings
from 1038 until the capital was moved to Warsaw in 1596.
The symbol of Warsaw is a mermaid.
Poland adopted its first constitution on 3 May 1791. It was the first constitution
of its kind in Europe and the second ever in the world after that of the United
States. Sadly, it remained in force for only 18 months before Poland ceased to
exist on maps of Europe for the next 123 years.
Poland disappeared from European maps in 1795 when the country was divided
between its neighbours: Russia, Prussia and Austria, and didn’t exist for 123
years until it regained its independence on 11 November 1918.
It is estimated that more than 6 million Poles, including soldiers and civilians,
died in executions, concentration camps, labor camps, prisons, and forced labor
during the 5 years of Nazi occupation (1939-1945).
14. Poles represent the biggest number of people by nationality to rescue Jews during
the German Nazi-organised Holocaust. Up to around 450,000 Jews were saved from
certain death. Poland holds the world record with the 6,135 people being awarded
the title of Righteous among the Nations by the State of Israel
The first oil refinery in the world was built in 1856 by Polish pharmacist and
petroleum industry pioneer, Ignacy Lukasiewicz.
Poland boasts 17 Nobel prize winners, including 4 Peace Prizes and 5 in Literature.
Marie Curie (born Maria Sklodowska; 1867-1934) was the first and only Nobel
laureate in two different sciences and first female professor at the Sorbonne

Polish born astronomer, Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543), was the first person to
propose that the Earth was not the canter of the universe.
Another Polish astronomer, Johannes Hevelius (1611-1687), published the earliest
exact maps of the moon.
Some Polish people famous worldwide: Nicolaus Copernicus (astronomer),
Johannes Hevelius (astronomer), Frederic Chopin (musical composer), Maria
Sklodowska Curie (physicist and chemist), John Paul II (pope).
