News / Poland..wake up to a multicultural world [1059]

I am confused I found Poland to be pretty mulitcultural and fine. I mean jeez there sushi restaurants and mexican places all over krakow. The only problem I saw was black people had more problems clearing customs and passport control it would take them about 20mins to pass.

News / Poland..wake up to a multicultural world [1059]

There are plenty of good civilizations that are not white or European. Look at Asia now or the Middle East during the middle ages, and even Africa with the Egyptians. But civilization changes right now the west as in Europe and America are the strongest and most advanced. It happens throughout history. To say a certain race is uncivilized is wrong but to say certain areas such as Africa or Middle East is uncivilized now and underdeveloped is right. The culture changed from wanting education and having a legit life. But seriously I found nothing wrong with Poland in respect to different cultures. I think the majority of Polish people are educated and accepting of foreign cultures.

(I just don't have any experience with Polish countryside and its attitude towards foreigners)

The same could be said of any country. Thanks I am really trying to study in Poland next year and my buddy wants to visit me.

Study / Questions about Warsaw Institute of Technology & some about life in Poland too. [19]

Damn mate you should come to Krakow instead I love meeting international people, I am American though but I have some Indian friends. Buts its up to you, also don't go to Poland just to find a girlfriend get an education first then if your lucky you'll meet a nice Polish girl. As for questions about admissions including payment email the international office.. I have emailed a few Polish universities and got a response within 48 hours.

News / Nobility / Aristocracy in Poland ? [92]

I am of Polish nobility however most Polish nobles left Poland a long time ago. I still doubt Poland has a confederation of Polish nobility?

News / Opinion: UN Calling - Where is Poland? [5]

Excatly in fact in my model U.N. class last semester I was representing Poland and I made an U.N. resolution condemning the CIA secret prisons. I got a C on the resolution because realistically Poland would never challenge the US on human rights.

News / Nobility / Aristocracy in Poland ? [92]

Not really other than my last name coming up on most websites for Polish nobility. I doubt that the nobility even mattered when my Great-grandfather emigrated to America because back then he was considered Austrian.

History / Poland before WWII or Poland now what would you choose? [390]

Well this is obviously a tough question my ancestors came from areas like Tarnapol which is now in Ukraine. But the new areas gained from the Germans had better infrastructure and more industry. So Poland now is probably the best shape its been in since the Polish-Lithuanian Empire.

Why is everyone ******** at eachother the modern day borders were drawn up by Stalin not the Polish people. Although I believe Poland always had the right to the Danzig/Gdansk corridor.

Genealogy / What region of poland is my family from? [27]

Thanks for posting that website, I have no figured out that my Great-Grandfather came from Strzyzow and my other Great-Grandfather came from ƚwilcza. On the documents it said Strarow is that the same town, and Swilzca is the same name?

This is what you've learned about it, it's fine with me as long as you accept the fact that there are other people who have completely different opinion about it.

The problem is Danzig/Gdansk changed hands so many times its hard to say who are the rightful heirs to it. It was originally Polish, then Prussian, then German, and then Polish again. Also before ww2 the German population was about 96% which could have been because the Germans forced the Poles out.

History / "Our Forgotten Allies" - Polish-American relations. [52]

Um we are out of money to give to Poland lol. But seriously if Poland wants more aid it will come especially if the missile shield is put in Poland. And supporting Israel isn't excatly why arab terrorists hate America it has more to do with American troops being stationed in Saudi Arabia which is very sacred to the muslims.

History / "Our Forgotten Allies" - Polish-American relations. [52]

I should of went into more details I meant once US troops were stationed in Saudi Arabia thats when Bin Laden went on to attack the west, and yes of course the support for Israel fuels terrorism too, but simply say supporting Israel caused 9/11 is an outlandish statement. But enough of that unfortunately the Israel lobby is strong and America does not see Poland as strategic for support.
