Topic: Krajowa Rada Narodowa


  
  Armia Ludowa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Its aim was to wage a military struggle alongside the USSR against the German occupiers, in order to bring about a Poland which would be an ally of the USSR.
On January 1 of 1944, the "Krajowa Rada Narodowa" (KRN) – "National Council of the Country" replaced the "Gwardia Ludowa" (GL) – "People's Guard" with AL.
The KRN intended AL to be an umbrella organisation under which all left-wing Polish anti-Nazi resistance organizations could be united and then integrated.

It was formed by the KRN (Krajowa Rada Narodowa - National Council of the Country) on 1 January of 1944, as a continuation of the Gwardia Ludowa (People's Guard), or GL.
Its purpose was to unite all the left-wing Polish anti-Nazi resistance organizations into a common united front.
Of this number only about 10,000 AL troops came from the disbanded GL, with the majority coming from other left-wing resistance organizations that joined the AL, or, to a lesser degree, from "raw" growth.

Modern Polish nationalism emerged in western Poland in the late nineteenth century in the form of the Endecja (Narodowa Democracja, National Democracy) movement.

In fact, the AK High Command members knew probably as much as their London superiors did as far as the international situation was concerned and certainly much more as far as the domestic developments.
The former was smaller but more professional and affiliated with the far right Zionist Revisionist movement.
