Anti-communist resistance in Poland can be divided into two types: the violent partisan struggle, mostly led by some former Armia Krajowa and Narodowe Siły Zbrojne soldiers, which ended around 1950s (see cursed soldiers), and the non-violent struggle by civilians that culminated in the creation and victory of the Solidarity trade union.
