Polska Roma are the largest and one of the oldest ethnolinguistic groups of Romani people living in Poland. Many Polska Roma also reside in Germany, North America, Switzerland, Great Britain and Sweden.some can also be found in Lithuania, Belarus, and Russia. The term "Polska Roma" is both an ethnonym of the group and a term used in the scholary literature. As such, it differs from the terms "Roma in Poland,"which more broadly refers to the entire Roma population in Poland. Therefore, the term '' Polska Roma'' or ''Polish Roma'' (Gypsie) is used exclusively for this particular group, while the term ''Roma in Poland'' is applied to all Roma groups living in Poland, the broader Roma population in Poland.
