Abstrakt

The land in the north-eastern corner of Poland (the region of Suwałki, Sejny, Augustów) was in the Russian partition for 100 years. Everything that was connected with Poland was fought by repressions. This area was full of nationality, cultural and religious variety. After the World War II a chance for regaining independence by Poland and Lithuania has appeared. Lithuanian people did not want to agree to the border line according to the so called Foch line. Germans who had to withdraw, favored the formation of the structure of Lithuanian authorities. It leaded to the Sejny Uprising, as the result of which Suwalszczyzna became a part of Poland. It brought dipper division between Polish and Lithuanian people, who in the past created Commonwealth.
