Summary/Abstract: The Romanians and Poles share many cultural, economic and political connections since medieval times, but are often neglected in comparison to other “typical” alliances that both nations had in the course of their history. Yet in many of the occasions both Romanians and Poles were fighting in the same team or against a common enemy. It is geography in the end that tied these 2 countries into necessary alliances in the past and in the present day, and which will still affect in the future. In the following document I will focus more on the 20th and 21st century sociopolitical scene but I will also take a short review of the context that lead to the current situation. It is also worth to mention that at the end I will try to offer a short description of what it might happen in the near future, based on the current data and context of the time of when this document was written (May 2020).
