The inventions of Poland

Because I started to write about my Erasmus friends’ home countries, I decided to do a small research about Poland. This semester to Logrono came five Polish girls. I want to learn some more from where they are coming from.  

I already learned about their traditional foods at polish evening. Bigos is probably the most popular traditional dish and is essentially a stew. Polish do not have only amazing kitchen, but also they are very smart.

90% from the polish people have completed at least a secondary education. Their ancestors have done great things. Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus was the first person to propose that the Earth was not the center of the Universe. Another astronomer, Jan Hewliusz published the earliest exact maps of the Moon. Also, Polish created the first constitution in Europe and second in the world. The last fact that sounded impressive was that the polish students invented The Modern Drug Test app for smartphones, which detects presence of drugs in human body. 

If you are not in science and were not impressed with these few facts maybe next ones will take your attention. The cosmetic’s brand, Max Factor was founded by a pole Maxsymilian Faktorowicz. Also, they are the reason why we have Fashion TV.

These might not be regular facts you would hear about a country, but they are definitely something the nation should be proud of. If you decide to visit Poland, do not be surprised if people great women by kissing their hand. Surely, it seems old fashion, but I think it is nice.
