False, the Polka is a traditional Central European Dance that (may) have originated in the middle of the 19th Century in Czech lands. The word comes from the Czech word Pulka, meaning 'little half' refering to the short steps of the dance. It should not be confused with a Polish word 'pokla' meaning Polish Woman or a Swedish word 'polska' which is also a dance in 3/4 time. It may be argued that the Swedish version may have Polish roots.
