"So they prepare to be alone... again" damn those words hits hard. We was betrayed so many times and no one comes for help. The same thing is in our life, the only person you should count the most is YOU.
Hungary as part of Austria took part in partitions of Poland, then Hungary was allied with Nazi Germany which again wanted to erase Poland from existance. Today Hungary supports Russia, which is Poland's enemy.
I don't think the narrator managed to pronounce a single Polish word right or close enough to right, which shows the depth of research and care. Lovely it is not.
The explanation for the high death rate was ridiculous. On the chart you can clearly see it started to rise sharply around 2020. It's obvious it was the result of the pandemic. Many countries around the world reported a similar rise in deaths. Alcohol consumption in Poland is lower than in many other countries. According to 2023 statistics it is 19th on the list just above United Kingdom.
Yeah, this was a very strange explanation that is probably based on your racist stereotipes from the communist era about polish people being alcohol abusers. Times have changed and now Polish people consume the highest amount of alcohol free drinks in the world. Also, the majority of Gen Z considers alcohol to be unnecessary, and just don't drink it. Same with smoking. But I guess you just haven't researched anything other than some random article from 1998, which is fine... Ignorance is a thing. @CountiesExplained
There's also demographic structure to be blamed: after WW2 there was a child boom and this generetion is now simply getting very old so as they were dispropotionaly big part of population death rate is now higher.
been to Poland several times... beautiful cities, a fast growing nation and good quaility of life, very civilized people, unlike my country in southern europe that only lives out of the glory of its past, but 0 current progress. congrats to Poland and Poles
Is it really that good? I would not say. Of course, the standard of living is better than before, but pensions and earnings in ordinary jobs are a nightmare. Many elderly people do not have a sufficient pension and do not have enough money for food or medicine. We have a shitty tax system, the population is falling, more and more people are leaving = there will be no one to pay pension contributions and retirees will live worse than now. You been a tourist and seen only nice places and did you know that over 2.3 million people do not have a toilet? We have beautiful cities, of course, lot of buildings are modern now but lot of no too, and if you have a good job or an idea for yourself, you have a good standard of living, it is easier to achieve something now. But it's not that great, I hope it will improve :) Thanks ofc But I wanted to make you aware that it's not so rosy and we have lot of other problems in our system, but Poland is still a nice country to visit or live in :) Regards !
@@m1kus960 Come on live normally with 3200 zł netto, pay for rent, food, bills. The majority of our society are people earning the national minimum wage. Prices have gone up, I was recently in Western Europe and some products were even cheaper and many at similar prices. And their minimum wage? Almost 3 times bigger. What do you say to retirees who have to pay bills, medicines, food and have a pension of 1600-2000 zł? It's not nice for ordinary people at all, everything is so damn expensive now. Many people don't have money for food, you see what you want to see. You go to richer places and you don't see the poorer ones, don't comment if you are not Polish.

@@lovlulov777 This is a lie, in Western or Northern European countries the salary is not 3 times higher than in Poland, and the final earnings from the net salary after all the miscellaneous expenses in Poland are the same as in Western or Northern European countries, Poland has very cheap prices. I know only one or two countries in Europe that are better than Poland, and that's the Czech Republic.
@@lovlulov777 The problems of European Western or Northern countries are that it is very difficult to find a job there, there is a housing crisis, it is very difficult to rent an apartment there, huge taxes, high prices, crime, and it is unrealistic to buy your own home, not everything is so colorful in Western or Northern Europe, the fact that there are higher economic indicators per capita says absolutely nothing about the life of a person in that country

Yeah for example he says that the white on the flag represents the eagle and the red the coat of arms. While really white represents purity and red the blood that was spilled while fighting for the country.
@@steel346 the basin that potentially lies outside Poland covers the area smaller than Opole Voivodeship, to say insignificant, with regard to anything.
We are traditional at most. But our goverment make a circus and Its like a play between two parties the most. One work for Germany now and another just want to rule. Its not peace now at all. And now Its just Poland selling options, we are ruled throw bad people, that just stealing
i would love to believe that Poland is mostly right wing and patriotic, but people just elected lefties german dogs government again, and everything in Poland is going to shit once again. Huge aircraft hub? Not anymore. More money for army? You wish. Defending our eastern border? What for? Imigrants? Any ammount. Fucking dibilis live in here.
As a Pole try to write "Poland" and not "poland". A pole is in English, "słupek". Be careful, if the West will to use stupid Poles, it is using to say "Poles are heroic, patriotic and very smart nation". It works.
All the best to all of you who doesn't hate us as Poland from hundreds years suffers from countries like Germany and Russia. Peace to you and your country.
I am from Poland. And i can confirm that our nationalty got thousands of war problems but after all, we got our freedom back, and became stronger than in the first place!🎉
Many analyzes show that Poland will be one of the best places to live in the world in the near future. You made good material, but it is puzzling that you didn't say anything about the fact that Poland is currently one of the safest countries in the world.
Even that alot of people complain in the country that life is bad Poland is actually in better place than many other countries. I wish i could return to my homeland but unfortunately at this time it's not possible. Would still defend it with my life even that I've spent half of my life elsewhere and already have family in another country. Born in Poland and always will be Polish.

I don't know if you remember but in your Estonia explained video, i asked you to do Poland next and after 6 months you uploaded it and I'm not disappointed. Good video
Beautiful video, thank You for that. It is really nice to watch how foreigners talk soo many good things about my beloved home. Poland 🇵🇱 best place to live. You should all come by :)
To me, it’s weird when he pronounces ch like sh. I know this is a Swedish feature, and it’s possible to get used to it, but it takes a while. Chief is sheef and children is shildren.
my first thought few minutes into the video - is the guy reading this from Sweden? :) thank you for your effort... a tip for the future - because your pronounciation of the Polish names mentioned in the video is completely wrong, why not using google translator... or leaving it simply without saying out loud? Don't take it personally :) the English "just" and quite a bunch of Polish words are simply difficult to pronounce :)
In 1939, the German and Soviet Russia invasions on Poland started WW II; this is a fact that should be loudly said to the public. 1 September, Germany and 17 September, Russia attacked Poland, not a single ally (ally on paper) lifted a finger back then. Russia, together with Germany, started WW II, this is a fact that was hidden only because, at the end of the war, Soviet Russia (not alone but with the help of other nations) beat Germany.
Do not forget the sprach of polish foreign Minister Mr. Beck. He was sure, that GB and F will help in case of war. It Was a big mistake. Without USSR determination no one in the world could stop Hitler's army and Poland would cease to exist.
@@eugengrzondziel1706 It was not an USSR determination but a massacre of their own nation actually a genocide of their own people. They just sacrifice their own people in unbelievable number ( if someone refuse to go and die, he was shot in the back ). And after all USSR alone would not be able to win with nazi. It was collective efford with other east nations and because nazi have been pushed in western front as well by aliants
Not entirely true, France did attack into Germany, and with Great Britain they should easily be able to penetrate well into Nazi-Germany, while most of the Wehrmacht was busy in Poland, but they were way too cautious, didnt use the chance at all, and pulled back after a meager offensive.
The lowest point in Poland isn't actually Raczki Elbląskie, it got updated kind of recently and now it is Marzęcino with -2.2 meters. It is close to Raczki Elbląskie though, about 20 kilometers away. Edit: Vistula flows entirely in Poland.

great video. i’m Polish myself and although right now i’m both working and studying in the Netherlands i hold my country dear to my heart. i’m very proud to be Polish, i love sharing my history with people abroad because i truly believe it’s a beautiful, ongoing story. thanks for sharing this video about my country. when it comes to our military spendings i think you summarized our point of view very well. me and many Polish people, even from abroad, are ready to fight for our fatherland. not because of hatred for any nation but because of respect for our history and heritage. i’d give anything to make sure that my family’s history lives on and my children are able to live in the environment i grew to love so much. nothing but love and respect from me!
Honestly, right now is the longest period of relatively peaceful independence since 1795. We are now seeing what they can do without so much foreign intervention, and I am excited for its people to define themselves in this century.
Not to mention this is the same country that had an uprising against 3 nations, Austria, Prussia and Russia, and even tried more times, the country that died twice and came back Poland refused to die making it one of the most badass country’s in Europe
Wow, just watched a bunch of movies about Poland recently, and this one? It's hands down the worst and most inaccurate. I mean, come on, the place names were totally butchered (a quick Google search could've fixed that, you dont have to be perfect but at least try, other people do that). And don't even get me started on all the errors and stereotypes - like the whole Vistula River thing (FYI, it's NOT shared with Ukraine and Belarus, at closest point it’s at least 200 km away from either). Oh, here's another f-up - the north of Poland is way less populated, even when you look at the whole country. Meanwhile, you missed mentioning Silesia, where a quarter of Poles live 🤦♂️ And let's talk about the drinking and smoking stereotypes - Poland's right in the middle of the European pack. It's not like we're the champs or anything. Would you say the same about the Germans, the French, or the Spanish, because they have similar stats? Honestly, I couldn't stomach watching more of this nonsense. My advice? Fact-check and stick to the real deal, not just opinions.
Our capital, Warsaw, was almost completly destroyed during WW2 (in something like 99%, it was burned and bombed to the ground) - we rebuilt it, including monuments like royal castle :)
@@bartomiejkowalski3727 Do ciebie to nie dociera ale nie przejmuj się to nie twoja wina że wyssałeś Anty Patriotyzm z Mlekiem Matki Mamusia po prostu chciała żebyś wszystko co Polskie mówił że jest złe i wyszedł teraz taki Bachor jak ty na świat Margines społeczny który będzie próbował za wszelką cenę zaistnieć i uderzać tam gdzie jest o czymś głośno
In WW2 we were betrayed twice: First, at the beginning when Germany attacked, Great Britain and France that were supposed to help us in defence let us alone, and then after the war we were sold to Stalin by US and GB
my god, that "betrayed by Britain and France in 1939" myth again. Both of them declared war on Germany, right? Right. So we weren't betrayed. Our allies did what they were supposed to do. You know who actually was betrayed? Czechs, who were given up to Germans by France and Britain at Munich Conference. That's betrayal.
@@KeyserFHT Oh, yes! They declared war on Germany without doing NOTHING besides pathetic "bombing" with flyers, which of course were not any help and couldn't change anything (yeah, Hitler would withdraw just because of flyers). And we are talking about FRANCE and BRITAIN, countries with much larger military potential than Poland. If they reacted in 1939, there wouldn't be any concentration camps, Holocaust, and any other war tragedies.
yay fanaly my country in a video how fun (; its always very funny to hear how non polish speaking people try to say polish names and words but honestly you did a pretty good job at pronunciation heh im very happy about how detailed and in you were in this video :D
2:07.... w8 what ??? u clearly showing map with river going straight thro middle of Poland and later u saying that it shered with Bialorus and Ukraine ?? :D
Poland has such a deep and fascinating history. A good history documentary on it really opens your eyes to the resilience and pride of its people across generations
I'm proud to leave in such a rich country in terms of culture and history and it always cheers me up to see other people admiring it and speaking good things about Poland 🤍❤
6:10 white represents purity and red represents blood, and please if you make a future video about a nation with foreign language atleast just try to replicate the sound of a word, this is the worst pronunciation ive ever heard, you dont need to sound like a pole but it could be WAAYYY better
As pointed in some previous comments - the video has some mistakes, so it's recommended for you, Countries Explained, to consult the facts with some representatives or just simply citizens of the country before publication. A nice move would be to hire a speaker from the country you make material of as he/she will be able to pronounce all the names of people and places correctly (and we know Polish can be so tricky!). Overall though nice material, we are happy that you have good opinion about us and our country :-) Regards from Poland
To jest twoja własna interpretacja. Barwy narodowe oficjalnie nie mają, żadnego znaczenia. Można się jedynie odnosić do ogólnego znaczenia kolorów w heraldyce.
@@siema14123 which is precisely what makes the flag so boring, it tells no story, it's just two colours, which many countries use and some even had/have an identical pattern it would be much better if it at least had the eagle on it or the anchor (kotwica/Polska Walcząca)
Hi, You said the most people in Poland live in Gdańsk and Łódź.. Gdańsk is 6th polish city (by number of inhabitants) Maybe if You count Sopot and Gdynia.. but You didn’t mention about „Tricity” :) You didn’t mention Silesia Metropolitan area which is more than 2,5 million people You didn’t mention Wrocław - which is 3rd Polish city…bigger than Łódź or Gdańsk And Vistula doesn’t flow through other countries ;)
excatly what I wanted to say as well, its probably because most english resources about Poland is quite outdated. Some are still listing Lodz as 2nd largest city, which was a case over 20 years ago!
Amazing video covering the topics of Poland! Great job! just one tiny detail, you've said that on our flag white represents the eagle and red represents field of the coat of arms. That could be true but more people are familliar with the version that white represents the purity of our country, and red is to represent blod that was shed for our country. 6:05
The way you read "Zalew Szczeciński" was one of the best thing i heard today. Awesome video. I really appreciate that as a regular guy from Poland. Pozdrowienia 😂❤
1:41 Ruzi? Im Pole and that mountains chain is called Tatry (Tatra for foreigners). The biggest mountain od Tatry is called Rysy not Ruzi. 6:04 I am 17 and always i was told in school or anywere that the white represents clean of soul, and red represents blood of wars or enemie's blood
Masz 17 lat i nawet nie umiesz pomyśleć że gościu po prostu nie potrafi wymawiać polskich nazw? Według Twojej logiki jaką nazwę szczytu mógł wymawiać jak nie Rysy, nie ma żadnego szczytu w Tatrach, jak i w Karpatach który by się nazywał "Ruzi", więc oczywiście że miał na myśli Rysy, nawet powiedział ich wysokość
In Poland there is something like "time change" On a specific day in autumn we turn the clocks back (to time zone 0) and on a specific day in spring we move the clocks forward (back to time zone +1)

Hungary as part of Austria took part in partitions of Poland, then Hungary was allied with Nazi Germany which again wanted to erase Poland from existance. Today Hungary supports Russia, which is Poland's enemy.
As a polish person, I have to say that your pronunciation of our words is lovely. Not correct. Not even closely to be honest. But lovely for sure :D

Had any probleme there ? Poland is said to be full of racist . That's what I heard
The explanation for the high death rate was ridiculous. On the chart you can clearly see it started to rise sharply around 2020. It's obvious it was the result of the pandemic. Many countries around the world reported a similar rise in deaths. Alcohol consumption in Poland is lower than in many other countries. According to 2023 statistics it is 19th on the list just above United Kingdom.
Yeah, this was a very strange explanation that is probably based on your racist stereotipes from the communist era about polish people being alcohol abusers. Times have changed and now Polish people consume the highest amount of alcohol free drinks in the world. Also, the majority of Gen Z considers alcohol to be unnecessary, and just don't drink it. Same with smoking. But I guess you just haven't researched anything other than some random article from 1998, which is fine... Ignorance is a thing. @CountiesExplained
There's also demographic structure to be blamed: after WW2 there was a child boom and this generetion is now simply getting very old so as they were dispropotionaly big part of population death rate is now higher.
And Poland handled the pandemic fantastically. Lower infection rates, lower vaccine insanity and lower death.
He didnt even make any research about government, taxes and law changes almost every day.

been to Poland several times... beautiful cities, a fast growing nation and good quaility of life, very civilized people, unlike my country in southern europe that only lives out of the glory of its past, but 0 current progress. congrats to Poland and Poles
Is it really that good? I would not say. Of course, the standard of living is better than before, but pensions and earnings in ordinary jobs are a nightmare. Many elderly people do not have a sufficient pension and do not have enough money for food or medicine. We have a shitty tax system, the population is falling, more and more people are leaving = there will be no one to pay pension contributions and retirees will live worse than now. You been a tourist and seen only nice places and did you know that over 2.3 million people do not have a toilet? We have beautiful cities, of course, lot of buildings are modern now but lot of no too, and if you have a good job or an idea for yourself, you have a good standard of living, it is easier to achieve something now. But it's not that great, I hope it will improve :) Thanks ofc But I wanted to make you aware that it's not so rosy and we have lot of other problems in our system, but Poland is still a nice country to visit or live in :) Regards !

Czechoslovakia just splited into Czech and Slovakia - "just splited" sounds funny when we consider what was happening at the same time in Yugoslavia.
Germany just changed name - Only a person without basic historical knowledge would say something like that. There were two completely separate German states. German unification was in fact the full annexation of one state by another with the simultaneous imposition of a different legal, economic and social system.

In 1939, the German and Soviet Russia invasions on Poland started WW II; this is a fact that should be loudly said to the public. 1 September, Germany and 17 September, Russia attacked Poland, not a single ally (ally on paper) lifted a finger back then. Russia, together with Germany, started WW II, this is a fact that was hidden only because, at the end of the war, Soviet Russia (not alone but with the help of other nations) beat Germany.
Do not forget the sprach of polish foreign Minister Mr. Beck. He was sure, that GB and F will help in case of war. It Was a big mistake. Without USSR determination no one in the world could stop Hitler's army and Poland would cease to exist.
@@eugengrzondziel1706 It was not an USSR determination but a massacre of their own nation actually a genocide of their own people. They just sacrifice their own people in unbelievable number ( if someone refuse to go and die, he was shot in the back ). And after all USSR alone would not be able to win with nazi. It was collective efford with other east nations and because nazi have been pushed in western front as well by aliants
Not entirely true, France did attack into Germany, and with Great Britain they should easily be able to penetrate well into Nazi-Germany, while most of the Wehrmacht was busy in Poland, but they were way too cautious, didnt use the chance at all, and pulled back after a meager offensive.

Honestly, right now is the longest period of relatively peaceful independence since 1795. We are now seeing what they can do without so much foreign intervention, and I am excited for its people to define themselves in this century.
Not to mention this is the same country that had an uprising against 3 nations, Austria, Prussia and Russia, and even tried more times, the country that died twice and came back Poland refused to die making it one of the most badass country’s in Europe
Very well Poland❤💪
Wow, just watched a bunch of movies about Poland recently, and this one? It's hands down the worst and most inaccurate. I mean, come on, the place names were totally butchered (a quick Google search could've fixed that, you dont have to be perfect but at least try, other people do that). And don't even get me started on all the errors and stereotypes - like the whole Vistula River thing (FYI, it's NOT shared with Ukraine and Belarus, at closest point it’s at least 200 km away from either).
Oh, here's another f-up - the north of Poland is way less populated, even when you look at the whole country. Meanwhile, you missed mentioning Silesia, where a quarter of Poles live 🤦♂️
And let's talk about the drinking and smoking stereotypes - Poland's right in the middle of the European pack. It's not like we're the champs or anything. Would you say the same about the Germans, the French, or the Spanish, because they have similar stats?
Honestly, I couldn't stomach watching more of this nonsense. My advice? Fact-check and stick to the real deal, not just opinions.
Kind of agree haha

As a Filipino in Europe! I recognize and see you my Polish brothers and Sisters. God will liberate this continent of sin. Godbless and Godspeed!
The Polish names were butchered so bad, the government reported you to the International Court of Justice in Hague.
The Śląska aglomeration should be also mentioned beacouse it has 3 million people in it much more than in Warsaw, Trójmiasto or Cracow
But technicaly this is not One City ;)

2:07.... w8 what ???
u clearly showing map with river going straight thro middle of Poland and later u saying that it shered with Bialorus and Ukraine ?? :D
much love from Hungary
Poland has such a deep and fascinating history. A good history documentary on it really opens your eyes to the resilience and pride of its people across generations
2:07 Wisła is not sharing border with Ukraine and Belarus. The river that shares border with these countries is Bug.
I'm proud to leave in such a rich country in terms of culture and history and it always cheers me up to see other people admiring it and speaking good things about Poland 🤍❤
Страна говно, будет ли она сильнее? Нет. Ее выебут другие старые при войне, плохое место на карте
6:10 white represents purity and red represents blood, and please if you make a future video about a nation with foreign language atleast just try to replicate the sound of a word, this is the worst pronunciation ive ever heard, you dont need to sound like a pole but it could be WAAYYY better
As pointed in some previous comments - the video has some mistakes, so it's recommended for you, Countries Explained, to consult the facts with some representatives or just simply citizens of the country before publication. A nice move would be to hire a speaker from the country you make material of as he/she will be able to pronounce all the names of people and places correctly (and we know Polish can be so tricky!). Overall though nice material, we are happy that you have good opinion about us and our country :-) Regards from Poland
The Polish flag represents two colors: white, which means scar, and red, which means blood. This is our story.
it's a lame flag all things considered tho, honestly
many nations have used similar or identical flags
@@GotMyTowel42 I don't care if you say it's lame or not....
To jest twoja własna interpretacja. Barwy narodowe oficjalnie nie mają, żadnego znaczenia. Można się jedynie odnosić do ogólnego znaczenia kolorów w heraldyce.
@@GotMyTowel42 flags are supposed to have a meaning... they are not just simple decorations made to look fancy
@@siema14123
which is precisely what makes the flag so boring, it tells no story, it's just two colours, which many countries use and some even had/have an identical pattern
it would be much better if it at least had the eagle on it or the anchor (kotwica/Polska Walcząca)
Thank you for representing my country :x
Hi, You said the most people in Poland live in Gdańsk and Łódź.. Gdańsk is 6th polish city (by number of inhabitants)
Maybe if You count Sopot and Gdynia.. but You didn’t mention about „Tricity” :)
You didn’t mention Silesia Metropolitan area which is more than 2,5 million people
You didn’t mention Wrocław - which is 3rd Polish city…bigger than Łódź or Gdańsk
And Vistula doesn’t flow through other countries ;)
excatly what I wanted to say as well, its probably because most english resources about Poland is quite outdated. Some are still listing Lodz as 2nd largest city, which was a case over 20 years ago!
WHEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!!!🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Informative video! 😊
Nice video you made (Nieźle zrobiłeś wideo!)😊
I'm so happy that someone is talking about Poland ❤❤❤🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Amazing video covering the topics of Poland! Great job!
just one tiny detail, you've said that on our flag white represents the eagle and red represents field of the coat of arms. That could be true but more people are familliar with the version that white represents the purity of our country, and red is to represent blod that was shed for our country. 6:05
The way you read "Zalew Szczeciński" was one of the best thing i heard today. Awesome video. I really appreciate that as a regular guy from Poland. Pozdrowienia 😂❤
I start to fell really weird when I say „POLSKA GUROOOOOOM” when poland became so popular around the world
1:12 I think Poland covers an area bigger than 312 square kilometres. (Should've been 312 thousand)
1:41 Ruzi? Im Pole and that mountains chain is called Tatry (Tatra for foreigners). The biggest mountain od Tatry is called Rysy not Ruzi.
6:04 I am 17 and always i was told in school or anywere that the white represents clean of soul, and red represents blood of wars or enemie's blood
Masz 17 lat i nawet nie umiesz pomyśleć że gościu po prostu nie potrafi wymawiać polskich nazw? Według Twojej logiki jaką nazwę szczytu mógł wymawiać jak nie Rysy, nie ma żadnego szczytu w Tatrach, jak i w Karpatach który by się nazywał "Ruzi", więc oczywiście że miał na myśli Rysy, nawet powiedział ich wysokość
Poland population is actualy about 41 millions. A lot of reffuges from Ukraine and others eastern countries.
Nope
@@007arek Yes. I would even say its more than 41 million. You can hear Ukrainian language being spoken everywhere
@@rene551 Do you know that GUS counts Poles who don't even live in Poland?
Also I doubt that Poland has 3 mln ppl form Ukraine, maybe 1.5
@@007arek So? If they dont live in Poland does that mean they are not Polish anymore? They are citizens of Poland and should be counted as such.
@@rene551 We are talking about population!
In your logic you will have to add 20 mln from Polonia.
In Poland there is something like "time change"
On a specific day in autumn we turn the clocks back (to time zone 0)
and on a specific day in spring we move the clocks forward (back to time zone +1)
2:12 you said that vistula, and in Poland, Vistula is shared with Ukraine and Belarus
next time before you read the prompter, look at the map
