Polish History

Learn Real Polish is a podcast for learners of the Polish language. In this episode, I talk about the Deluge, the 17th-century Swedish invasion. During the wars, the Commonwealth lost approximately forty percent of its population. One of the most important episodes of this invasion was the siege of Jasna Góra, during which the sacred icon, the Black Madonna of Częstochowa, was saved.
