This is from Wikipedia. The Warsaw Ghetto was ground zero to the resistance in Poland. Poland was ground zero to the German annihilation of millions. But, it also served as a link to escape from the Nazis. There were many Jewish people that escaped through Poland. 

A Polish resistance movement began organizing soon after the invasions in 1939. Its largest military component was a part of the Polish Underground State network of organizations and activities and became known as the Home Army. The whole clandestine structure was formally directed by the Polish government-in-exile through its delegation resident in Poland. There were also peasant, right wing, leftist and Jewish partisan organizations. Among the anti-German uprisings waged were the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and the Warsaw Uprising. The latter was a late (August–September 1944), large-scale and ill-fated attempt to prevent the Soviet Union from dominating Poland's postwar government.

It was Russia coming through Poland that ended the war. This region is pivotal to global peace and it has been for a long time. The leaders of these countries need to reflect on their importance not to just each other, but, to the world. What if Poland never found the moral fiber to stand up to the Nazis; where would we be today? Russia the same thing. The Russians could have surrendered and fallen in with Hitler, that wasn't the case. They knew it was better to fight and end the Nazi regime. 

Their history is important as well as their autonomous states today. There is nothing to hate here or to believe there is such a monster one has to win some kind of power over the others. It is nonsense.

There is no such thing as exclusive standing in one form of government over another. Strategically, Russia is better as a communist state. It is an enormous country. It is very difficult to defend such large land masses. China has over a billion people to feed and maintain domestic peace. Communism serves them well. The governments aren't the problem, there is no magic wand to democracy. Democracy is difficult and it takes time to establish. It is not granted by a magic fairy. 

Human rights is the focus to the quality of life of the people. Human rights is important to every country. How a country achieves that is intricate to understanding the government and the people and their relationships. Human rights has to be important to countries. If it is not we end up with Hitler all over again.

Look at the monster the USA has become to so many other nations in the world in the years of Bush and since. Domestically, the USA is a mess. There are all kinds of issues we are finding the people have lost control over. The police have become a monster to our streets. We have problems. The Congress under a Republican majority is turning on the poor and depersonalizing them for a political strategy. If that is not a monster I don't know what is. 

We cannot turn out backs on the monster called greenhouse gases either. It is getting far worse and quicker than most scientists have estimated. They didn't expect the huge and growing upper tropospheric vortexes and fires. Dear god, the fires are pushing the growth of the climate crisis beyond any acceleration the vortexes alone could have caused. Russia knows this. They know they lost 50 thousand people to fires. Australia. It has been a growing disaster.

And what good has democracy and capitalism done to end the use of adverse sources of energy in the massive amounts it has been used? Capitalism has been used against the best interest of the people. 

There is no simple answer by stating democracy is perfect for all people. That is not the case. The answer to quality of life is the emotional and intellectual growth of the people. The more they understand how important they are to a movement for good and decent lives the faster the development of the country. But, an organized goverrnment cannot be sacrificed because it makes for good politics. That is a matter of growth of the sophistication of the people.

Every country has to find a way to improve the lives of their people and be a part of a greater understanding of life and the impact of those lives on the planet. 

Peace to all.
