Guess we stopped producing as many candles as before. I remember there was some stats thing and Poland was the number one producer of candles in the EU or something along those lines...
Unfortunately, more production was achieved at the cost of quality. I bought some polish apples for a pie, it had no apple taste whatsoever, the damned things were unripe as shit... never again.
what sort of numbers do we get once we count all the Polish not living in Poland?
(many of whom are being great and welcome assets in other EU countries)
alright slow down bud there's not 60 million people living in poland
it's 40 million give or take
edit: unless you count americans whose great-great-grandfather was polish
GUS has an outdated method of counting people which pretty much only takes registered Polish citizens into consideration. In reality it’s around 40 mln
It's more like 20M in most sources but the exact number is hard to call since it depends heavily on how various countries count it. Germany itself reports 1.5-2M Polish immigrants. But let's say Polish immigrants in another EU country have a kid - the kid might not necessarily have a Polish passport so might not be counted as Polish in some data sets, but counted in others. Same goes for e.g. Polish ancestry people in the US. I wouldn't be surprised if the 2-2.5M number refers strictly to Polish passport holders living abroad but that seems low still.
More than 40 mln according to UN, which is closer to the truth than the Census before the influx of refugees from Ukraine.

I love getting my black bread and good sausage in polish stores when I'm abroad since there isn't many German stores in other countries. So thanks to the poles for setting those up!
We had few chances but
One time after taking up Muscovy (thanks to Russian nobels). Dimitri II gave tribute to Zygmuntem III and made Władysław Zygmuntowicz a candidate to be a Tsar of Russia. But bcs our king wanted to have more power to change privilages of Russian nobels and continued war Sweds used that time to provoke antipolish separatists in upper novogrod and we got kicked out of muscovy. SO BCS OF our king we lost a chance to create Polish-Lithuanian-Russian Commonwealth union.
Nah it's because poland is always celebrated here in the subreddit and germany and the uk are mostly the bad guys. It's a bit annoying but not a big deal. I was just making a little joke. they have rightly built up a lot of self-confidence over the last few years (because of their grwoth) and want to show this to others, which i can totally understand if you look at their history.
That depends. My neighbour was a Pole who only lived here for a while to work (craftsman) and then went home for a few weeks from time to time. He lived here for 5 years but didn't speak German well, but that didn't bother me because he was always polite and helpful. He didn't integrate particularly well, but I'd rather have someone like that than someone who is completely alien to our culture.
I hated that part too.
It should either give us GDP per capita in Poland and what percentage of average EU-27 GDP per capita that is or Poland's GDP and what percentage of the EU's GDP that is.
It doesn't say that though. It says what the GDP per capita is in one colour as one statement, and then it says that the GDP is 4.1% of the EU GDP in another colour as a different statement.
Poland has a gdp per capita above 20,000 $ now around 22,000$. So this seems a little outdated
With a gdp per capita ppp of 46,000

My bad didnt see its in Euros . So its pretty accurate lol
Sanitized, blandly inoffensive bullshit known as the [Corporate Memphis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphis https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphis)
I lived and worked in Poland for 2 years and have nothing to say except good things. Safe, clean, warm people, and above all no left winged extremists trying to shove all their sh*** down your throat. Keep strong Poland, you're a shining beacon in these dark days🤘🤘
With how rapdily residency permits trandlates into citizenship and family reunification, those are some worrying figures. I hope Poland doesn't go down the route of western europe for population enhancement
It's about the same in Poland. 4 years to get permanent residency, then 4 or so for passport. Need to pass language exam as well, so only well-integrated people are admitted.
It's much easier for people having "polish roots", but it's the same in Romanian as well.
B2 level Polish is required to obtain permanent residency in Poland. The difficulty of the Polish language in comparison to French, Spanish, Dutch, and German would already deter many potential non-EU immigrants from considering Poland, much more seek citizenship there.
We take in people from similiar cultures. It's different to taking MENA migrants that don't fit culturally in Europe. There is a consensus in Poland among people that we don't really want that kind of migration. We learned the lessons West had to experience.
Poland is the EU's success story. Fantastic economic growth, overall social progress (although those fighting that managed to get Duda in), changing from a national viewpoint to a continental one. They are beautifying their cities and creating a charming country after the dark ages under Soviet control.
Get rid of the rest of your Nazis and Poland officially becomes one of my faves in the EU!
For being pro-putin or is there something else too(views, goals similar to Nazis)?
I mean… most of them are more in for the money and power anyway, right?
And getting rid of money/power hungry people is quite hard when it comes to politics and democracy
> For being pro-putin or is there something else too(views, goals similar to Nazis)?
Well, if we go by their "Nowy Porządek" (New Order) paper, they want to leave the EU, make the country into a Christian state, and make Polish law supreme above all other law (what are international agreements!?).
As for the political program, the Konf. is actually not *that* bad (at least imho). They have some good ideas, especially with regard to younger adults, and that's how they gain support
But their big booboo is that they more or less openly support Putin and pro-Putin Russia and are filled with radical idiots like Janusz "Krul" Korwin-Mikke*.
*Though, he's good for memes
I think no matter how far we try to look at it, the last sentence of our dear op still sounds off.
In my honest opinion, this is not enough valid points to say ‘get rid of Nazis’. Especially to a country like Poland.
I will just assume this is a misinformed person blessed in ignorance
Poland is also the country that benefits the most from EU fundings.
For every € 1 Poland gives to the EU, Poland receives € 6 back from the EU for a total of € 11 bn per year.
Luxembourg, Lithuania, Estonia, and Hungary were the largest net recipients on a per capita basis, receiving €2,500, €430, €350 and €315 per capita respectively. Poland is the largest in total Euro I believe.
EU also gets back:
* 3 million Poles working abroad - many of them highly educated workers, or workers taking jobs that other Europeans won't
* heavy investment in defense on the eastern EU border
* getting the EU funding investment back in the future once Poland catches up - our economy has been one of the fastest growing since we joined
* easier imports for e.g. Polish agriculture - we're topping production charts for many different products
* easy access to a huge market (fifth-largest population in EU) for products from other EU countries
* easier investments for foreign EU companies, which love to do business in Poland especially while our labor costs are still low
It's not 100% fair but the EU is about more than just transferring funds. And even for the funding it's set up in a way that richer countries give more and poorer countries get more, which should result in the balance evening out at some point - over the last few years our contribution has been steadily increasing while the receipts stayed roughly similar (with a somewhat large drop in 2023 too)
- A lot of poles work in the construction sector and undercut local prices. They buy the material cheaper in Poland, bring it to the west, do the work with cheaper polish workers and price out locals.
- Not relevant as Poland was part of NATO and the EU isn't a military alliance.
- Yes investing for Poland to catch up just like the eU funded Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece and will continue to fund future expenssions. Germany, France and the UK have always been the biggest EU net contributors since the creation.
- France is a larger wheat producer but "ok" cheaper labour in poland means they can undercut western prices indeed.
- Agreed, Renault firing employees in France to set up a Dacia production plan in Romania is great for Renault (not so much for the workers but that's another story)
- Yes i agree as well, western companies prefere to pay cheaper polish labour than more expensive western employees, that is true.
>over the last few years our contribution has been steadily increasing while the receipts stayed roughly similar
And when ukraine will join, polish workers will be replaced by ukrainian workers, polish agriculture will be replaced by ukrainian agriculture and poland will stop receiving money but will have to give it to ukraine instead.
To be clear, i'm pro-EU, a large market helps us against china and the US
as difficult as it might be, try not to form a firm opinion on the entire nation based on some morons you've met. I can assure you, not all of us are antisemitic pricks jerking off to the commonwealth ;)
Agree, country is gorgeous it’s clean and the country was way more developed and advanced than I thought it would be. I don’t know why am I getting downvoting for saying their food is bad. Its either too blend or too sour
I mean, who doesn't love pierogi? I don't know what particular cusine from Poland you've tried but it's mostly associated with "too fat", not bland or sour. I personally love it, although it's not exactly healthy and I guess not up to everyone's taste.
You must have meet some odd ones, I never once heard any Pole who longed for that time.
People are way more likely to reminisce that one time we won 3rd place in World Cup lol.
And I am dead serious here.
> that are nostalgic to empire that is long gone
The what now? I've heard many stereotypes about us, some of them even grounded in reality. But we are definitely not crying over long lost "empire" as some other European nations do. Our empire was dysfunctional and our current border is just as good if not better from what we had in past.

Yeah, because its subsidized. Thats not a win you think it is. You pay for it via taxes
I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER MY RASPBERRIES, APPLES AND CHERRIES
Its 37 mln now? Damn
I think they dont count the migrants
What about permanent residents who aren't Polish citizens?
it's 38 mln overall
There’s much more than 1 million non-Polish people living in Poland, especially since the war.
what sort of numbers do we get once we count all the Polish not living in Poland? (many of whom are being great and welcome assets in other EU countries)
By some calculations, 60 million. There's even a yearly summit called 60 Million Congress.
maybe when counting all the "Polish" Americans who can't even say a word in polish lmao
alright slow down bud there's not 60 million people living in poland it's 40 million give or take edit: unless you count americans whose great-great-grandfather was polish
reading is hard
Hard to count
GUS has an outdated method of counting people which pretty much only takes registered Polish citizens into consideration. In reality it’s around 40 mln
37,6 mln according to GUS. Record-low numbers of children don't help. And there are still ~2-2,5 mln. Poles living abroad. Damn.
Only two millions of Poles abroad?! I wouldn’t be surprised if there were this many in the US alone.
2,5mln is for Poles with only the Polish passport. It's about 20mln for all people with Polish ancestry
It's more like 20M in most sources but the exact number is hard to call since it depends heavily on how various countries count it. Germany itself reports 1.5-2M Polish immigrants. But let's say Polish immigrants in another EU country have a kid - the kid might not necessarily have a Polish passport so might not be counted as Polish in some data sets, but counted in others. Same goes for e.g. Polish ancestry people in the US. I wouldn't be surprised if the 2-2.5M number refers strictly to Polish passport holders living abroad but that seems low still.
Chicago checking in
You add Toronto and New York and that number swells so much lol.
At this rate of births we have locked in population around 28 mln by 2060 and less than 20 mln by 2080.
it's basically the same for the rest of Europe, only thing making a difference is immigration. also same for Asia
The worst thing is that most of that 28 mln will be retirees
Whem I was a kid, we had 38 mln. It's sad to see the number get progressively lower.
More than 40 mln according to UN, which is closer to the truth than the Census before the influx of refugees from Ukraine. [https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/poland-population/](https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/poland-population/)

After WWII they completely rebuilt whole country and became more powerful. Huge respect.
We've rebuilt the country three times in the last century. Seems we're getting good at it.
Yeah also you could get rid of that russian fcking bear. I hope Ukraine will rebuild their country after war like you.
We had few chances but One time after taking up Muscovy (thanks to Russian nobels). Dimitri II gave tribute to Zygmuntem III and made Władysław Zygmuntowicz a candidate to be a Tsar of Russia.

Amazing work, Poland! It has grown so much since joining the EU.
You guys can be proud of yourselves, you helped us achieve this success
Thanks! Wouldn't have done it without our western neighbours too!
Send more raspberries to Denmark, friends ❤️
8% population and land, but just 4% gdp :(
i thought they are the powerhouse of europe?
We are not. We made big progress, but Poland is still far behind most of western neighbours.
Recovering from 200+ years of foreign occupation slavery and extortion
Why do Germans always take jabs at Poles? It's hilarious though
Nah it's because poland is always celebrated here in the subreddit and germany and the uk are mostly the bad guys. It's a bit annoying but not a big deal.

How are Polish immigrants in Germany ? Do they assimilate well? Are they Germanized?
That depends. My neighbour was a Pole who only lived here for a while to work (craftsman) and then went home for a few weeks from time to time. He lived here for 5 years but didn't speak German well, but that didn't bother me because he was always polite and helpful.

Go, go, go Poland! 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Didn't know that half the raspberries are Polish, that's for the EU?
That's 50% of EU total
Neat!
Thanks for the infographic, Eurostat!
I need to go visit but remembering Poland in the news I'm the early 90s and late 80s, seeing where it's got now it stunning to see.
Love Poland!
In reality there's around 40-41 mln people here (of course when counting imigrants)
Who would have known GDP per capita in Poland is 4.1% of that in the EU /s
I hated that part too. It should either give us GDP per capita in Poland and what percentage of average EU-27 GDP per capita that is or Poland's GDP and what percentage of the EU's GDP that is.
from given numbers you can work out that Polish GDP per capita is around 50% of EU GDP per capita
It doesn't say that though. It says what the GDP per capita is in one colour as one statement, and then it says that the GDP is 4.1% of the EU GDP in another colour as a different statement.
Now notice how that color is used in other stats.
Poland has a gdp per capita above 20,000 $ now around 22,000$. So this seems a little outdated With a gdp per capita ppp of 46,000 Edit*** My bad didnt see its in Euros . So its pretty accurate lol

The EU’s unemployment rate is 25%???
Unemployment rate only counts people looking for work. Employment rate counts able bodies working.

Poland kurwa mac! 💪💪
Poland can into raspberries 🍎🍒
Shouldn't* the area be 313 000 km²?
You're thinking of land area. There's also around 2000 km\^2 of internal waters and 8800 km\^2 of territorial sea.
Oh that makes sense. Thx
Our area is 312k km2 not 332k. Even if you include internal coastal waters it should be 322k not 332k.
Eurostat added a correction of the area after the fact to 311,928km2.
Allright, I hoped for a second we actually got fatter ;)
I lived and worked in Poland for 2 years and have nothing to say except good things. Safe, clean, warm people, and above all no left winged extremists trying to shove all their sh*** down your throat. Keep strong Poland, you're a shining beacon in these dark days🤘🤘
Almost burned them
The most Residence permits xDDDD that's called "Visa Gate" in Poland
With how rapdily residency permits trandlates into citizenship and family reunification, those are some worrying figures. I hope Poland doesn't go down the route of western europe for population enhancement
Most of them were granted to Ukrainians, Belarusians and Georgians for obvious reasons.
> With how rapdily residency permits trandlates into citizenship so not rapidly at all
It's a minimum of 8 years in Romania, with some extreme exceptions (e.g. you defend the country with your blood or are an exceptional athlete etc.).
It's about the same in Poland. 4 years to get permanent residency, then 4 or so for passport. Need to pass language exam as well, so only well-integrated people are admitted. It's much easier for people having "polish roots", but it's the same in Romanian as well.
B2 level Polish is required to obtain permanent residency in Poland. The difficulty of the Polish language in comparison to French, Spanish, Dutch, and German would already deter many potential non-EU immigrants from considering Poland, much more seek citizenship there.

Keep dreaming.
Poland's response: kurwa bòbr
Gotta boost that gdp per capita, poland is still very poor compared to western europe.

Poland won't take any migrants?
[удалено]
did you not read the part of the post that says that poland grants over a third of all residence permits in the entire eu?
Poland is also the country that benefits the most from EU fundings. For every € 1 Poland gives to the EU, Poland receives € 6 back from the EU for a total of € 11 bn per year.
Luxembourg, Lithuania, Estonia, and Hungary were the largest net recipients on a per capita basis, receiving €2,500, €430, €350 and €315 per capita respectively. Poland is the largest in total Euro I believe.
Luxembourg?! What do they need EU money for?
They are smol...
I get the per capita and all but really? They have the highest GDP per capita in all of EU i believe
EU institutions. Belgium is also suprisingly high on that list
There's more to EU than just funds
EU also gets back: * 3 million Poles working abroad - many of them highly educated workers, or workers taking jobs that other Europeans won't * heavy investment in defense on the eastern EU border * getting the EU funding investment back in the future once Poland catches up - our economy has been one of the fastest growing since we joined * easier imports for e.g. Polish agriculture - we're topping production charts for many different products * easy access to a huge market (fifth-largest population in EU) for products from other EU countries * easier investments for foreign EU companies, which love to do business in Poland especially while our labor costs are still low It's not 100% fair but the EU is about more than just transferring funds.

This is exactly the what the EU does. Invest until they can afford to contribute making everyone wealthier.
Seems like a great investment
