Catherine the Great lopped of parts of Poland three separate times and took the areas within the Russian Empire. Other countries also got parts. The country of Poland disappeared from the map of Europe.

Lenin invaded Poland near the end of the Russian Civil War but Poland, under Joseph Pilsudsky repelled the invasion.

Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler entered into the Non-Aggression Pact before World War with a secret agreement between them that they would both invade Poland and carve it it up between them. Poland as a whole was not obliterated, but it became a Soviet satellite state.
