Polish people, or Poles, are a West Slavic ethnic group and nation who share a common history, culture, the Polish language.

There are also strong Polish communities in neighbouring countries, whose territories were once occupied or part of Poland – Czech Republic, Slovakia, Lithuania, Latvia, western Ukraine, and western Belarus. The term "Polonia" is usually used in Poland to refer to people of Polish origin who live outside Polish borders.
