Hello there.
On that page you can find some information about myself (Firefree that mean ^.^) and about my beautiful country: Poland. Why I decided to do that kind of page? Two reasons:
first: There's word limit In user-lookups so I can't write everything that I want to.
second: Most of people don't know anything about Poland, and if they know probably that's something right "Polar Bears are walking there on the street, right?" huh.. I love that text X_X but, no dear! We have Polar Bears only in the Zoo XD
Eh.. I know It sounds funny, but trust me.. It's not! If you don't know anything about Poland (or if you only know that kind of nonsense) It's not the reason to be proud of, because that means you wasn't considering on yours Geography Lessons or History Lessons enough.

About Poland
Now, there's only some basic information. But I'll try my best to add some new things here.
Total area: 312 800 square km.

National flag: white and red colours

Borders
Poland lies in the central part of the European continent.
The country has a roughly circular shape with a characteristic narrow spit of land, the Hel Peninsula.
Over the centuries, Poland's territory has changed many times, but it has always comprised the basins of the Warta and Vistula Rivers, and the lands between the Carpathians(from the South) and the Baltic Sea(from the North).
To the west, Poland has a border with Germany To the south with the Czech Republic and Slovakia To the east and north-east with Ukraine, Belarus , Lithuania and Russia. The total length of Poland's land and sea borders is 3,496km.
Topographical features
Poland is a relatively low-lying country. 91.3 percent of its territory lies below 300 m above sea level. The highest point is Mt Rysy in the Tatras (2499 m), while the lowest point is located west of the village of Raczki Elbląskie (1.8 m below sea level).
There are three main mountain ranges in Poland: the Carpathians, the Sudetan Mountains, and the Góry Świętokrzyskie (Holy Cross Mountains). The longest rivers are the Vistula (1047 km), Oder (854 km), Warta, Bug, Narew, San.
Poland has some 9,300 lakes with surface areas over 1 ha. They make up 1 percent of the country's territory. The largest is Lake Śniardwy in the Masurian Lake District, and the deepest is Lake Hańcza north of Suwałki.
Climate
Poland has a moderate climate with both maritime and continental elements. The weather tends to be capricious and the seasons may look quite different in consecutive years. Summer may be hot and dry a few times in a row and then it becomes cool and wet. This phenomenon tends to happen in several-year cycles.
Seasons
Poland has as many as six distinct seasons. Apart from the four typical European seasons, there are also two periods described as early spring (przedwiosnie) and early winter (przedzimie). The seasons hardly conform to the calendar pattern. During the przedwiosnie, which is about a month long, the average daily air temperature ranges from 0*C to 5*C. Spring in Poland lasts usually about 60 days and comes from the west. The daily temperature at that time ranges from 5*C to 15*C. The long-awaited summer, with temperatures above 20*C, begins in May and is about four months long. In autumn, the average temperature drops to between 5*C and 15*C. Almost every year, mid September sees the coming of Polish "Indian summer", which is a warm and sunny transition between summer and autumn. Leaves start to fall off the trees, but you can still feel the wafts of warmth. Once the trees have lost all their leaves and the days are markedly shorter, przedzimie begins. Temperatures drop below 5*C. After about six weeks, winter comes and the frosts don't want to go away for a long time - until late February or early March.
