Nearly everyone living in Poland today is ethnically Polish due to the significant demographic changes that occurred after World War II, particularly the borders' redrawing and the forced migrations of various ethnic groups. The war and its aftermath led to the expulsion of millions of Germans and the resettlement of Poles from territories lost to the Soviet Union. Additionally, Poland's post-war communist government promoted a homogeneous national identity, further consolidating the ethnic makeup of the population. These historical events have resulted in a predominantly Polish ethnic population in contemporary Poland.
