History / WAS KATYĆ GENOCIDE? Polish officers were killed [237]
The word ethnicity is not as specific as you think. Both groups can be considered ethnic groups. Poles would be a more specific ethnicity while you could also argue that Slavs are a broad lingo-ethnic group.
The fact remains that many Poles are mixed in which they are mostly Slavic but also have Germanic and/or Baltic ancestry. As I said earlier, this could be one factor to why Poles don't look like most other Slavs.
Are Slavs an ethnic group, or are Poles and ethnic group?
