Krajowa Rada Narodowa
- National Council for the Homeland in Poland
- KRN
History
Led by Party Secretary Władysław Gomułka, the Polska Partia Robotnicza organized a committee called the Krajowa Rada Narodowa, to prepare for the establishment of a future Communist state. In view of the widespread anti-Soviet sentiment in Poland, KRN made a point of emphasizing its alleged independence from Moscow. Meeting for the first time on 1943-12-31, the committee promised to establish a provisional government at a suitable moment in the future, nationalize industry, and expropriate the large landed estates.
