On a cold and snowy Sunday morning on December 13, 1981 the Poles woke up to find their country under Martial Law (literally in a State of War or "stan wojenny"). Martial Law was imposed by the Military Council of National Defense (WRON) lead by Prime Minister Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski and a Communist Council of 22 members consisting of high ranking military officers and part officials.
The Wojskowska Rada Obrony Narodowej (WRON) declared Martial Law to "defend socialism". They felt threatened by the members of the Solidarity (Solidarnosc) the first independent trade union behind the Iron Curtain. Solidarity had been founded only 18 months earlier, in August of 1980 after several weeks of strikes. The workers had gone on strike to protest poor living conditions and lack of independent representation. With the birth of Solidarity hopes were high that the new trade union would help to pressure the government to introduce economical reforms and ease restrictions. The government quickly realized that Solidarity was a threat to the system. Several road blocks were created to derail Solidarity but the union seemed to grow stronger. The situation made the Soviets very worried and they, on several occasions, pressured the Polish government and the Polish Communist Party (PZPR) to de-legalized Solidarity. For the Polish government it soon became apparent that the union was too strong and far too popular to simply de-legalize it. Drastic action was need to oust Solidarity, so martial law was imposed.
Please note: there is a small amount of creasing on 2 corners.
