The Council of National Resistance (Rada Jedności Narodowej) was a key political organization in Poland during World War II, formed in 1944. It represented various factions of the Polish resistance against Nazi occupation and aimed to unify efforts to restore Polish sovereignty after the war. The Council worked to coordinate military and political actions among different groups, including communists and non-communists. Its goal was to create a democratic Poland free from foreign domination and to represent Polish interests in discussions about the post-war order. The Council was significant in shaping Poland's political landscape during and after the conflict.
