Poland says it lost more than 5 million citizens and over $54 billion dollars (46.6 billion euros) worth of assets under the Nazi German occupation of the country during World War II.
A parliamentary commission announced the numbers as part of the current Polish government's declared intent to seek damages from Germany.
Poland spent decades under Soviet domination after the war and wasn't able to seek damages independently. However, Germany is making payments to Polish survivors of Nazi atrocities.
Preliminary calculations done for the commission put the number of Polish citizens killed from 1939 to 1945 at 5.1 million, including 90 percent of Poland's Jewish population.
Losses in cities were estimated to be worth 53 billion zlotys ($14 billion; 12 billion euros). Additional losses in agriculture and transportation infrastructure also were factored in.
