Kosciuszko, a pivotal figure in both American and Polish history, was a military engineer and leader. Renowned for his role in the American Revolutionary War, he later returned to Poland, where he became a central figure in the country's struggle for independence. His military expertise and unwavering commitment to liberty made him a national hero in Poland, leading him to lead the 1794 Kosciuszko Uprising against foreign occupation.
