When communist Poland held its first partly free elections in 1989, it was a vote that followed years of economic hardship that sparked nationwide unrest. Strikes in 1980 led to the birth of Solidarity under Lech Walesa's leadership. The regime tried to crush the movement the next year, with leader Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski imposing martial law, a system of harsh repression. (AP Photo/Arturo Mari, File)
