Poland, officially the Republic of Poland (Polish Rzeczpospolita Polska), country in Central Europe. Poland's capital and largest city is Warsaw. Poland has a total land area of 312,684 sq km (120,728 sq mi). It is bordered on the north by the Baltic Sea and Russia; on the east by Lithuania, Belarus, and Ukraine; on the south by the Czech Republic and Slovakia; and on the west by Germany. The maximum distance from east to west is about 680 km (about 420 mi) and the maximum distance from north to south is about 790 km (about 490 mi). Poland's borders are marked by the Sudety mountains (Sudetes) in the southwest, the Carpathian Mountains (Karpaty) in the southeast, and Odra and Neisse (Nysa) rivers in the west, and the Bug River in the east. On the northeast, the country is bounded by a section of the Baltic Sea. At the time of the 1988 census Poland had a population of 37,878,641. The 2000 estimate was 38,644,184, yielding an average population density of 124 persons per sq km (320 per sq mi). During most of its history, Poland was a multiethnic society that included substantial numbers of Belarusians, Ukrainians, Jews, and Germans. However, the territorial changes that resulted from World War II led to profound changes in the country's ethnic composition. Poland now contains relatively little ethnic diversity. About 98 percent of the country's inhabitants are ethnic Poles, and the remainder is comprised mainly of Ukrainians, Belarusians, and Germans.
