+Nowadays, Poland borders [[Germany]] in the west, [[the Czech Republic]] in the southwest, [[Slovakia]] in the south, [[Ukraine]] in the southeast, [[Belarus]] in the east and [[Lithuania]] in the northeast. In the north lies the Baltic Sea, making Poland the only non-German-speaking central European country to have sea access (for most of its history).

 Quite a lot of AH.com members come from Poland. They basically divide into three groups - nationalists, vexillophiles (flag lovers) and Otis Tarda, who is famous for creating the How do you Look thread.
