The police force in Poland is called "policja." It was created in 1990 and has about 100,000 officers. Every Polish region has its own police department, and Warsaw has a separate department, called the Capital Police Command "(Komenda Stołeczna Policji)." It also counts the employees of BOA/SPAP, special police units. Most of the towns and some villages in Poland also have their city guards, which provide help to the police.
