If you trace it back far enough Croats are from Samaria, Samaritans that traveled from the Middle East out towards Europe (unsure of the exact year). Some of these nomads settled in Poland and some continued further towards the Adriatic and are now called Croats. So technically Pols and Croats have similar ancestry if you go back a bunch of centuries.
