	History of Poznan \| Poznan Life
		Poznan is one of Poland's oldest cities, and was its capital during the middle of the 10th century.
		Though the area of Greater Poland has been inhabited since the Stone Age, the settlement that would become Poznan began at the end of the 8th century AD, when the first stronghold was built on the island of Ostrow Tumski, between the Warta and Cybina rivers.
		After the Soviet "liberation" of Poland, the country was incorporated into the Soviet Bloc, though Poznan became once again a Polish city and its German population was expelled, and largely replaced by the expelled Polish population from Lviv and Vilnius and Poland's former eastern territories.
