I doubt that Poland will ever become a European superpower.

[@TheRezro]

You forget about major detail regard Polish militarization. Specifically outside high-end systems and ad-hock acquisitions to compensate whole drama in Ukraine. Majority of new hardware would be made in Poland. That include thousand BWP Borsuk and same number of K2PL tanks. So majority of hardware would be still made in Poland.

[@Channel-sp3fp]

It won't exceed France, Britain, Italy or Germany. Poles still hate Germans, Poland's version of history is very biased. They are a most vengeful people filled with much hypocrisy, not much different than the Russians to be perfectly honest.

[@TheRezro]

@@Channel-sp3fp No. But it can become equal. Poland has robust education system. What tend to be chocking point in the middle income economies. People forget that Poland was Great Power priori to WW2. It is not some weird exception. Poverty in Poland was. PS: There is literally zero chances of Poland falling apart. Despite clear division between historical zones of partition. Poles are actually more intermixed. Current Polish government is extreme even for Conservative Poles. And what is more important, they are hypocrites. In reality they do not have radically different politic then opposition, beside some nonsense talked in the TV and few populists regulations.

[@karolinakuc4783]

Orban is not the worst I guess. Most worring is him engaging in corruption. Making gas deal with Russia seems good as switching to renewable sources of energy can be hard. Because to get hydrotermal energy you need to make big investments that do not bring high immediate profit. And I heard that although Hungary leads in this area it will not cover all of its demand for energy. Also I do not think making deals with Quatar (what Poland did) for gas is good as the country funds Islamic League - a terrorist organization. But maybe the switch is like in case of USA in 90s when they started to shut down renewable sources to depend more on oil. Idk coz I don't live in Hungary

As a Korean, Poland has my respect. Both Poland and South Korea were once deeply impoverished countries with a long history of war and invasion. But now, both our countries are the complete opposite. Poland has a thriving economy, strong military, and drastically improved standard of living, as does South Korea, and both have established themselves as massive presences within their areas both economically and militarily. Poland even bought military equipment from South Korea! I don't know what exactly is going on in Poland right now, but whatever is happening, I hope for the best. Stay safe my Polish friends.

My polish grandfather who survived the 2nd world war. He said that he had no crumbs with the germans, he accepted they lost and got occupied.

My grandad was very sure to never forget that the brits didn't raise a finger, and then you used the polish pilots, who escaped to the uk, for suicide missions. So yeah, my dead polish granddad will smile in his grave if PL beats UK 2030 with the bnp.

[@kaidrache2395]

German here. I predicted the rise of Poland right after the fall of the Iron Curtain and I feel that I was and am right. The reasons are simple. Poland is a central European country right next to massive economies which helped bringing up their own standards. Furthermore Poles are extremely hard working fellows who were more than welcome in neighbouring countries as guest workers. That brought in a plethora of experience and in the beginning much needed money. Combine this with a mentality for "making things work" which everyone appreciates and you have the formula for a very successful country. Slowly and steadily the label "Made in Poland" reaches the same heights as "Made in Germay", namely outstanding quality. Even better - by earning more money as a country a lot of Poles who worked abroad have returned to Poland where they will be used as highly skilled workers who are paid quite well. And Poland has massively diversified. The days were most Polish citicens were craftsmen are long gone. They heavily invested in modern technologies and the corresponding applications and are already collecting their harvest. In a nutshell - Poland is going to continue to prosper and it's well deserved. These people didn't get their wealth gifted, they worked for it. Hard.

When we first visited, my family even hadn’t a proper bathroom, there where outhouses in most cases, and for bathing most time you needed to cook water on a stove. The trick was that literally every person in their 20s to 30s went away to work in the west. There were just young children, mothers and the elderly around.
