The '''Third Polish Republic''' is a [[Central Europe]]a country and the leading [[pro-life]] nation in [[Europe]]. Previously Poland suffered many hardships before and after [[World War I]] and [[World War II]], disappearing from the world map in 1875 and re-appearing in 1918 after 123 years of [[Austria-Hungary|Austro-Hungarian]], [[Prussia]] ([[Germany|German]]), and [[Russian Empire]] rule. After having re-emerged as a sovereign nation after World War I, Poland was again partitioned between [[Nazi Germany]] and the [[Soviet Union]] at the start of World War II. Attaining nationhood again at the end of that war, Poland was then suppressed behind the [[Iron Curtain]] as a Soviet satellite state controlled by a [[communist]] regime imposed by [[Josef Stalin]].

While Hungary remained [[conservative]] by standing against the [[NATO war in Ukraine]] and not [[bankruptcy|bankrupting]] itself over it, Poland's [[RINO]]-type leadership made both mistakes and was defeated in the national election on October 15, 2023. Predictably, as a result of Poland caving into [[liberal]] [[NATO]], the [[homosexual agenda]] and [[transgender agenda]] began taking over Poland in 2024: "Religious symbols have been banned from [[Warsaw]]'s city hall by its mayor, marking the first Polish city to do so. [[Cross]]es will no longer be allowed to hang on walls according to a new set of documented rules, which was a common sight in state offices in Poland. Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski also included in the new rules that officials must respect [[same-sex marriage|same-sex couples]] and preferred pronouns."<ref>https://humanevents.com/2024/05/16/religious-symbols-crosses-banned-from-warsaw-city-hall</ref>

The current government structure consists of a council of ministers led by a Prime Minister, typically chosen from the majority coalition in the bicameral legislature's lower house (Sejm). The president, elected every five years for no more than two terms, is the head of state and commander-in-chief of the armed forces. The judicial branch plays a minor role in decision-making.

The parliament consists of the 460-member Sejm and the 100-member Senat, or upper house. The new constitution and the reformed administrative division (as of 1999) required a revision of the election ordinance (passed in April 2001). The most important changes were the liquidation of a national list (all deputies are elected by voters in electoral districts) and introduction of a new method of calculating seats (the modified St. Lague method replaced the d'Hondt method, thus eliminating the premium for the top parties). The law stipulated that with the exception of guaranteed seats for small ethnic parties, only parties receiving at least 5% of the total vote could enter parliament.

Parties represented in the newly elected (October 2015) Sejm are [[Law and Justice]] (PiS), [[Civic Platform]] (PO), Kukiz'15 (K'15), Nowoczesna Ryszarda Petru (.N), and Polish Peasant Party (PSL). There is also one representative of the German Minority and some non-allied members of Parliament.

Poland has repeatedly ruled out joining the EU common currency. In October 2022, the Polish Constitutional Tribunal declared that Articles 1, 2, and 4 clauses 3 and 19 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) are incompatible with the Polish Constitution and warned the European Union not to interfere with its [[sovereignty]].

On March 8, 2022, the government of Poland announced it would transfer all of its Russian-made MIG-29 jets to the Rammstein Air Base in Germany.

Poland plans to increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2026, using a funding scheme that includes bonds, loans and leasing options. The PiS-led cabinet already is among NATO’s top spenders (2.2% of GDP in 2022). In 2022 military spending stood at 57.7 billion zlotys, or 12.5 billion euros, which will consume 12 per cent of the country’s budget. As a result of the NATO war in Ukraine, Poland planned to raise military spending to 5% of GDP, with 300,000 active troops by 2035. It is buying billions in modern equipment from the US and South Korea.

As stated by the Defence Ministry, the military modernization plan until 2035 has a price tag of 524 billion zlotys (115 billion euros), but details have not been made public. The increased spending also does not require parliamentary approval, let alone a referendum, even for the largest procurement items. All that is required is the signature of Defense Minister.
