The end of World War II meant huge political changes in Poland. The country-- whose population was decimated, whose elites were deliberately murdered, and whose government was exiled--became part of the Soviet Bloc. In other words, the country, crushed by the Nazi totalitarianism, became part of a communist totalitarian system. It is not our goal... |
