Summary/Abstract: The objective of the paper is to characterize the Polish society of the North-Eastern Territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth towards the German occupation of Ober-Ost against the background of the socio-political situation in Vilnius in the years 1916–1918. As a consequence of the special policy pursued by the Germans (the implementation of war goals) and the relations that it generated, as a national group, Poles in Vilnius chose the status of a para-internal Polish party (still) abroad instead of becoming a political partner of Lithuanian Taryba.
