The greatest Pole ever has gone to be with the Lord. There is joy in Heaven this day--and sorrow here on Earth.

Pope (St.) John Paul II, pray for us.

That's arguably true, that Karol Wojtytla was the greatest Pole ever. Of course, you have to argue past Jan Sobieski, who led the defense of Vienna against Kara Mustafa and the Turks in 1683 and so prevented a wholesale Turkish invasion of Europe.
