Military Administration In Poland
The Military Administration in Poland () was the military occupation authorities established in the brief period during, and in the immediate aftermath of, the German invasion of Poland (1 September– 6 October 1939), in which the occupied Polish territories were administered by the German military (''Wehrmacht'') as opposed to the later civil administration and the General Government.

Civilian officials ('' Landrat'') were quickly assigned to governance of Polish powiats or groups thereof; in Western cities and villages Germans were appointed as mayors and vogts, in the central and eastern ones Polish ones were accepted.

People From Rzeszów County
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity.
