  The Polish National Anthem
The "Mazurek Dabrowskiego", Poland's national anthem since 1927, was written in 1797 by Jozef Wybicki when the Polish Legions commanded by General Henryk Dabrowski were deployed in Italy to fight under Napoleon Bonaparte.
The original title was "Piesn Legionow Polskich we Wloszech" ("The song of the Polish Legions in Italy"); the name Mazurek Dabrowskiego was given to the song later.
The Legions were created in Italy to fight under Napoleon against Austria for the liberation of Poland from the reign of its three invaders Russia, Austria and Prussia, which divided Poland's territory between them.
