-**Ignacy Jan Paderewski** (A renowned pianist, American and Polish celebrity, skilled diplomat and the prime minister in the 1st phase of the Polish-Bolshevik war.

-**Tadeusz Rozwadowski** (One of the most skilled and innovative commanders of the k.u.k army during ww1, he later joined the reborn Polish army and organised the defense of Lviv during the Polish-Western Ukrainian war, during which he made great efforts to protect Jews and Orthodox Christians from nationalist pogroms. In the Battle of Warsaw, he was co-responsible for devising the Wieprz counterattack plan, which turned the tide of the war and routed Mikhail Tukhachevsky’s armies)
-**Józef Piłsudski** (Socialist patriotic revolutionary, commander of the Polish Legions, First Marshal of Poland and the Supreme Chief of Poland and Commander in Chief of the Polish forces during the innitial years of Polish independence. As the main proponent of the Intermarium federal concept, and a staunch anti-nationalist, he believed that only united can the post-russian states stand up to the Whites, the Reds and the Germans alike. He was the architect of the Polish-Ukrainian alliance and the Kyiv Expedition, and oversaw the victory at Warsaw – likely being a co-author of the Wieprz counteoffensive. During the battle, he personally commanded the successful counterattack, which completely destroyed the northern front of the Red Army. He was also likely the most russophobic man to have ever walked the earth lol)
