Is Poland a communist country?

The answer is no. After the Soviet Union took over Poland they forced it to become a communist country and Poland became a satellite state. Poland- the polish home army in Warsaw started a rising against the Germans and the thought of the red army "liberation." 200 000 polish were dead within 2 months. Warsaw was flattened. Stalin refused to support the rising, meaning he had a polish capital without any opposition in. Stalin then set up a communist party dominated provisional government of national union in he polish city of Lublin. Elections were held, and the communists won nearly all the seats. The elections were said to have been rigged, and the opposition leader fled to London. Poland became a satellite state.
