BF Polish Week 2018: Poland has ties to Belgium’s royal family and European Union leadership

This week, we have posted things about Poland. The Wizards are hosting the Nets on Saturday for Polish Heritage Night, so we decided to dedicate this week to it. We have alternated from highlights on Marcin Gortat’s career on one day followed by a piece on other people of Polish heritage the next.

On this edition of Bullets Forever’s Polish Heritage Week, we’ll talk about Poland’s relationship with another fellow European country: Belgium.

Belgium doesn’t border Poland, so you might be wondering, why would we put them in the same sentence? Isn’t Belgium a western European country while Poland is (or was) part of the Eastern Bloc?
