Poland Album
Poland has 38 million people in an area 1.1 times the size of Colorado.  
Poland led the world to freedom from the communist.  The polish
union "Solidarity" led by Lech Wolenza, forced the beginning of the
collapse of communism.  It was a miraculous event that occured
basically peacefully.  The Polish give the credit to prayer for this
miracle.  The country is 97% Catholic.
In 1995 most farming was done
without machinery.
