Silesian Uprisings
Years: 1919 - 1921
The Silesian Uprisings are a series of three armed uprisings of the Poles of Upper Silesia, from 1919–1921, against Weimar rule; the resistance hopes to break away from Germany in order to join the Second Polish Republic, which had been established in the wake of the First World War.
In the latter-day history of Poland after the Second World War, the insurrections will be celebrated as centerpieces of national pride.
