The Soviets policy stance toward Poland at the Yalta conference was that it was not going to give back the land that was annexed from Poland instead he would give land taken from Germany.
The significance of Solidarity in Poland for the decline of Soviet influence in Eastern Europe was that the Polish citizens' incooperation made it so that the USSR had to negotiate for its rule in the country,when before it had unconditional rule and therefore had no reason to change its policies. The union forced the Soviets to compromise and bend- which weakened its hold on first Poland and then the other countries in which it had a strong hand in the government.
Poland is predominantly Roman Catholic.
first answer: nazis second more correct answer: Nazi Germany began the invasion of Poland on 1 Sept. 1939, however the Soviet Union joined Germany in the invasion on 17 Sept. 1939. A conquered Poland was divided between the two invaders. Then at the end of the war, when Germany was defeated, Poland (an ally) was not freed by the Soviets, instead it was occupied & turned into a puppet of the Soviets.
Technically, yes. Eastern Poland was attacked by the Soviet Union in the early stages of WW2. Western Poland was attacked by Nazi Germany. The Germans eventually ended up taking all of Poland, kicking the Soviets out.

If you mean the invasion in World War II under the Nazi-Soviet pact, it was certainly not because Poland was "weak." Poland had just defeated the Soviets in the Polish-Soviet War in 1919-1920. Instead, the Soviets, along with the Germans, wished to destroy all ethnic Poles. Stalin also held a grudge against the Polish for his court-martial after the Polish-Soviet war. The Soviets were responsible for nearly as many deaths as the Germans, and they didn't respect the rights of POWs.
it doesn't. (:
