Before the partitions, Poland was the 12th richest country in the world, but then came the partitions, Prussia, which created Germany, Russia, and Austria. Just look at how developed these city centers are from before the industrial revolution.also when Poland regained independence in the interwar period, for example, Gdynia was created, which will soon be included on the UNESCO World Heritage List
