German minority in Poland

In Poland, there are some people who are of German heritage, meaning their ancestors came from Germany a long time ago. These people make up a small minority, which means there are not very many of them compared to the whole population of Poland.

Being a minority means they might have some things that are different from the majority of the people in Poland. For example, their language and culture might be different. They might speak German at home and celebrate different holidays than other people in Poland.

It's important to remember that even though they might be a minority, they are still a very important part of Poland and should be treated with respect and kindness. It's also important to recognize and celebrate the diversity of different cultures and languages within Poland.
