Poland, officially the Polish Social Nationalist Republic is a country in central europe, it is devided into 14 voivodeships and 4 Krajs. Poland has a population of 40 Milion. Warsaw is the nation's capital and largest metropolis. Other major cities include Kraków, Kaliningrad, Łódź, Poznań, Gdańsk, and Lwów. Poland has a temperate transitional climate and its territory traverses the Central European Plain, extending from Baltic Sea in the north to Sudeten and Carpathian Mountains in the south. The longest Polish river is the Vistula, and Poland's highest point is Mount Rysy, situated in the Tatra mountain range of the Carpathians. The country is bordered by European Commonwealth and Russia (Unclaimed) to the northeast, Slovakia (unclaimed) and Romania to the south, and Germany and Sorbia to the west. It also shares maritime boundaries with Norway-Sweden and European Commonwealth. The history of human activity on Polish soil dates to circa 10,000 BC. Culturally diverse throughout late antiquity, the region became inhabited by tribal Polans who gave Poland its name in the early medieval period. The establishment of statehood in 966 coincided with a pagan ruler of the Polans converting to Christianity under the auspices of the Roman Church. The Kingdom of Poland emerged in 1025 and in 1569 cemented its longstanding association with Lithuania, thus forming the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was one of the great powers of Europe at the time, with a uniquely liberal political system that adopted Europe's first modern constitution in 1791. With the passing of a prosperous Polish Golden Age, the country was partitioned by neighbouring states at the end of the 18th century and regained its independence in 1918 as the Second Polish Republic. In September 1939, the German-Soviet invasion of Poland marked the beginning of World War II, which resulted in the Holocaust and millions of Polish casualties. As a member of the Communist Bloc in the global Cold War, the Polish People's Republic was a founding signatory of the Warsaw Pact. Poland then under the influence of the Solidarity movement transitioned into a temporary democratic western government which spanned from 1989-2027 until the Ziółkowski coup. Poland is a semi-parliamentary republic, with its legislature comprising the Sejm only. It is a developed market and a high income economy. It provides high standards of living, safety and economic freedom, as well as free university education and a universal health care system. Poland is a founding member state of the Alternative United Nations, as well as a founding member of the CECA and the New Warsaw pact.

Etymology
The native Polish name for Poland is Polska. The name is derived from the Polans, a West Slavic tribe who inhabited the Warta River basin of present-day Greater Poland region (6th–8th century CE). The tribe's name stems from the Proto-Slavic noun pole meaning field, which in-itself originates from the Proto-Indo-European word *pleh₂- indicating flatland. The etymology alludes to the topography of the region and the flat landscape of Greater Poland. The English name Poland was formed in the 1560s, from German Pole(n) and the suffix -land, denoting a people or nation. Prior to its adoption, the Latin form Polonia was widely used throughout medieval Europe. The country's alternative archaic name is Lechia and its root syllable remains in official use in several languages, notably Hungarian, Lithuanian, and Persian. The exonym possibly derives from either Lech, a legendary ruler of the Lechites, or from the Lendians, a West Slavic tribe that dwelt on the south-easternmost edge of Lesser Poland. The origin of the tribe's name lies in the Old Polish word lęda (plain). Initially, both names Lechia and Polonia were used interchangeably when referring to Poland by chroniclers during the Middle Ages.

Before the Third Republic
"See: History of Poland"

Third Polish Republic
A shock therapy program, initiated by Leszek Balcerowicz in the early 1990s, enabled the country to transform its socialist-style planned economy into a market economy. As with other post-communist countries, Poland suffered temporary declines in social, economic, and living standards, but it became the first post-communist country to reach its pre-1989 GDP levels as early as 1995, largely due to its booming economy. Poland became a member of the Visegrád Group in 1991, and joined NATO in 1999. Poles then voted to join the European Union in a referendum in June 2003, with Poland becoming a full member on 1 May 2004, following the consequent enlargement of the organisation.

Poland joined the Schengen Area in 2007, as a result of which, the country's borders with other member states of the European Union were dismantled, allowing for full freedom of movement within most of the European Union. On 10 April 2010, the President of Poland Lech Kaczyński, along with 89 other high-ranking Polish officials died in a plane crash near Smolensk, Russia.

In 2011, the ruling Civic Platform won parliamentary elections. In 2014, the Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, was chosen to be President of the European Council, and resigned as prime minister. The 2015 and 2019 elections were won by the conservative Law and Justice Party (PiS) led by Jarosław Kaczyński, resulting in increased Euroscepticism and increased friction with the European Union. In December 2017, Mateusz Morawiecki was sworn in as the new Prime Minister, succeeding Beata Szydlo, in office since 2015. President Andrzej Duda, supported by Law and Justice party, was narrowly re-elected in the 2020 presidential election. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 led to 6.9 million Ukrainian refugees arriving in Poland which resulted in anti-Ukrainian sentiment to grain traction in Poland due to the fact the PiS government was blamed for economic downturn and further benefits for Ukrainians at the expense of the Polish population. In the subsequent years the United National Party lead by Hubert Ziółkowski and Tamara Vlasov gained traction and in the mid 2020's presidential election Hubert Ziółkowski became the main opposition candidate with large influence over the republic via the ZZ and GS. The fundamental disagreements within the sejm which was split between the Pis-PO coallition and the UNP-Konfederacja coalition caused for political gridlock and further economic downturn and instability, in mid-late 2020's the instability would reach its peak and it was commonplace to see politically motivated street fights as well as army desertions and rebellions. In late mid-late 2020's with the support of the armed forced and allegedly the Russian Federation Hubert Ziółkowski orchastrated a coup on the Polish government and announced the Fourth Polish Republic, dubbed and then later officially called the Polish Social Nationalist Republic.

Fourth Polish Republic
The new Polish Republic faced many issues at its creation, despite now total control over the country the economy proved hard to stabilise especially in the midst of a world recession. Ziółkowski spent most of his time trying to influence the new government into follwing the policy of Fiscal Federalism and pragmatism but with little success. Fortunately for the populance of Poland due to the isolation Poland faced after the coup the economy was able to naturally develop into an autarky due to the neccesity of it being one, the only largely imported goods came from the now weakening Russia which could supply less and less each year, This caused Poland to pursue policies of domestic production and whilst the rest of the world was facing a worldwide reccesion Poland was able to experience small but still positive economic growth. In the early years of the Fourth Republic Panslavist policies were dominant but after the collapse of the Russian Federation in late 2020's the Ziółkowskiist faction within the government decided to ditch the policy and instead focus on anti-liberalism, anti-neo conservatism and pragmatist balance of influence which was Ziółkowski's conception from the start. This lead to Tamara Vlasov organising a minor officers revolt in lower silesia, the ZZ found out about this plot and started attacking Tammyist stronholds. This lead to a 13 day civil war where Tammyist sympathisers were harrased and sometimes even killed and therefore retalitated, thankfully for the Tammyists The German Federal republic was also collapsing due to the Russian supply of gas suddently stopping and this allowed for Tammyist forces to occupy and establish the Republic of Sorbia. Most of late 2020's to early 2030's were spent fighting skirmishes and different offensives on the border with sorbia as well as establishing relations with the North Germans including the Pomerania exchange, ultimately in early 2030's the treaty of Zgorzelec was signed, establishing the modern borders with Sorbia and North Germany. However this wasnt the last of Poland issues as in mid 2030's the Belorussian revolt happened leading to a war between Poland and the democratic opposition in Belarus, Lithuania and Volhynia which lasts as a frozen conflict to this day, suprisingly the republic of Sorbia supported Poland in this war on multiple occasions which lead to the positive relations between the two nowadays and on the other hand the European Commonwealth's support for the democratic rebellion lead to the Polish-European Rivalry.

Government and politics
The Polish Social Nationalist Republic is a Semi-Federal Semi-Parliamentary Authoritarian Republic. The Fiscal set of laws put forward and administered by the government is dictated by voivodeships and the minister of economy who is elected out of a group of economists of each political leaning every 7 years. The Cultural laws are dictated top down from the central government under the leadership of the Kultokrat except for the autonomous krajs of Kalinigrad, Silesia, Kashubia and Lithuania who have their own Kultokrat's in charge of those regions cultural laws. Foreign and international policy is shared by the Kultokrat of the biggest nation within the Republic (in this case Poland and so Hubert Ziółkowski) and the Minister of War (Witold Baśiński) who work together to determine Polish decisions on the international stage. A Kultokrat of a Kraj or of a nation is appointed by the previous Kultokrat (or the position is established, as in the case of Hubert Ziółkowski) and each Kultokrat must abide by the basic provisions which are written and ratified as the constitution of The Polish Social Nationalist Republic.

Poland's legistlative assembly is the Sejm, it has only one branch and consists of 460 steats, with 1 being reserved for the Minister of economy and 9 for the Kultokrat's ministers, whilst 450 are representatives of each powiat and voivodeship. Each powiat elects a representative via optional preferential voting system, and each voivodeship elects a representative via optional preferential voting system, with the powiat representatives voting for the voivodeship representative. The sejm doesnt have a set date or frequency of meetings and instead it meets up to adress and vote on national fiscal policy whenever a proposal from the minister of economy or another sejm member arises. The minister of economy can veto legistlation and the judiciary can (upon request) from the Kultokrat deem a legistlation invalid on grounds that it doesnt belong in the fiscal category.

Candidates for powiat elections can step up with 3000 signatures, but to enter sejm they have to join the Social Nationalist Polish Peoples Party (this can happen before or after they are elected as long as it is before their first sejm session). Candidates for the Minister of Economy elections are called up expert volunteers from economic think tanks from all across the economic spectrum. Terms for powiat representatives are 3 years and terms for voivodeship representatives are 4 years. Any legal adult is allowed to put themselves forward as candidate for any elected position granted that they fullfill the above criteria.
