It was partitioned by Russia, Austria and Prussia

Well yes that is the 3 major countries that took over BUT.

Poland's task, by comparison, has been to try to join both east and west, the core and the periphery in Europe. The Slavic tribes banded together to form the nucleus of the Polish state, located in the district called Wielkopolska, or "Great Poland". The Polians, gave their name to the new country and in less than a century, Poland grew from this core to the far reached Carpathian Mountains in the south, north to the Sea shore, west beyond the Oder River and east to the Bug river almost precisely the territory of Poland today. Meaning they had more than they can chew, they were unable to protect it as much as they can now.

When it expanded further, creating an empire that spanned the breadth of eastern Europe, between the baltic and black seas. Poland could no longer hold it together this large geographic enitiy. More powerful empires arose on all sides which were Russia, Germany, Austria, and Sweden. Out of no where these powerful countries seized all the territory meaning Poland itself which ceased to exist in 1795.

-like I said all of this means is that they had more than they could handle at that time. They grew and grew without thinking about how to protect it. Polska people I'm not against you but you know its true if you think about it-
