EXAMPLE OF ANOTHER COUNTRY
1. WHY POLAND?
In our school there are some students from Poland like:
Krzystof
Kamil Burcynski
Nadia Wal
Oskar Guzwoski
Monika Gacek
2. COUNTRY: POLAND
History: The worst moment in the history of Poland was the 2nd World War. The Sanacja movement controlled Poland until the start of World War II in 1939.
During World War I, all the Allies agreed on the reconstitution of Poland that United States President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed in Point 13 of his Fourteen Points. A total of 2 million Polish troops fought with the armies of the three occupying powers, and 450,000 died. After the armistice with Germany in November 1918, Poland regained its independence as the Second Polish Republic. It reaffirmed its independence after a series of military conflicts, the most notable being the Polish–Soviet War (1919–1921) when Poland inflicted a defeat on the Red Army at the Battle of Warsaw, an event which is considered to have ultimately halted the advance of Communism into Europe and forced Lenin to rethink his objective of achieving global socialism. Nowadays the event is often referred to as the 'Miracle at the Vistula'.
Present-day Poland:
Bronisław Komorowski is the current presindent.
Now, like other countries, Poland suffered some economic and social problems and that makes some other difficult things for the correct operations. But there is also numerous improvements in human rights, like the freedom of speech. In 1991, Poland became a member of the Visegrád Group and joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Poles then voted to join the European Union in June 2003, with Poland becoming a full member on 1st May 2004. Now a days Poland continues being a member of the European Union.
Culture: The people of Poland have been traditionally regarded as hospitable to artists from abroad and want to follow the cultural and artistic trends popular in other countries.
3. DESTINATION: KRAKOW
Kraków is the second largest and one of the oldest cities of Poland. Situated on the Vistula River in the Lesser Poland region, the city dates back to the 7th century.

It was the capital of Poland from 1038 to 1596; the capital of the Grand Duchy of Kraków from 1846 to 1918; and the capital of Kraków Voivodeship from the 14th century to 1999. It is now the capital of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship.
Kraków is on of the most important economic center in the world.
It is the unofficial cultural capital in Poland.

The famous sport in it is football, it has got some teams.
