The Amish community, one of the most well-known unusual religious groups in the world, emerged in Switzerland in 1525. It is said that they immigrated to America after being subjected to violence in Europe due to their beliefs and lifestyles. It is possible to see people with this belief in almost all states of America.
Amish marriages from the outside world are prohibited by some groups and not tolerated by others. In order to continue the Amish tradition, they find it more appropriate to marry among themselves. Because they refuse to serve the state, they also refuse to do military service. It is very difficult for them to establish themselves and accept others when mingling with another community.
Amish (the lucky ones), who can only continue their education until the 8th grade, start to be educated at home after this grade. Parents are reluctant to send their children to school because they think it will tear their children away from the Amish beliefs. The US Supreme Court also ruled that the Amish do not need to attend compulsory education, citing freedom of belief.
So how do the Amish live? This community, which lives in large areas, sustains their lives by cultivating, and they continue to do so today, just as people earned their living in the 18th century. Since it is forbidden to use motor vehicles, they do not use tractors. Instead, they prefer primitive methods. They provide transportation by horse carriage. The Amish, who do not have electricity in their homes, light their homes with gas lamps. Photography and video shooting is strictly prohibited. When they see the camera, they almost disappear. They do not have a church, they pray at home. One of the harsh rules of the Amish, who excommunicate those who do not follow the rules, is that the family of the excommunicated person stops talking to the person and is sent from the region.

The first Amish community was founded in the 17th century in Switzerland as a branch of the Anabaptists, a Protestant Christian community. However, many of them eventually emigrated to North America. Currently, about 120,000 of them live there - and we associate this community mainly with the United States. On average, we don't know much about the Amish - we know that they are orthodox in faith, deal with farm work and crafts, reject some modern inventions and technological achievements.
The only Amish family in Poland lives in the Lublin region, in Roztocze. It is made up of Anita and Jakub Martin and their seven children. They were visited by Maria Sikorska with the crew of the program "With Climate and Passion", broadcast on Polsat News.

The Amish are an indigenous group of people living in Taiwan. Their culture and traditions are unique and closely related to nature. They are characterized by:
1. Agrarian culture: The Amish are traditionally farmers and ranchers, and their daily lives are closely related to farming and caring for animals.
2. Music and Dance: The Amish are famous for their traditional music and dance, which is an important part of their culture and rituals.
3. Religion and beliefs: The Amish believe in natural forces and traditional spirits, and their religious rituals and practices are closely related to nature.
Unfortunately, there is no permanent Amish community in Poland, but you can meet them at festivals and cultural events that promote their traditions and culture.
The Amish follow many rules and traditions that are part of their culture and heritage. Some of these include respect for nature and its forces, honesty and loyalty to one's tribe, and respect for elders and traditional rituals.
In traditional Amish culture, there are certain restrictions on behavior and behaviors that are considered inappropriate. For example, women are not allowed to participate in certain rituals and ceremonies, and certain activities such as smoking and drinking alcohol are considered inappropriate.
There are no data on the specific conditions that the Amish suffer from exceptionally often, because there is not enough information about them. The Amish, like other ethnic groups, may be at risk for diseases and conditions unique to their populations, but also those that are common in global populations.

The Amish are a Protestant Christian community that rejects the use of modern technology. They have fully rejected motorized vehicles and even ban the use of pneumatic rubber tires. They also do not use electricity, and have even managed to get exempt from insurance and standard education rules. The assumption of the Amish is to maintain close family ties, strengthening them by common, hard work and attachment to tradition. The solutions mentioned above, on the other hand, are considered a threat, distracting community members from the most important ideas.

The Amish are followers of Mennonite Protestantism who live in a very different way than the majority of Western society. Their lifestyle is based on strict religious principles that affect their daily lives. The main characteristics of the Amish culture are isolation from society, manual labor, simplicity and lack of technology. The Amish live in small communities, usually in rural areas. They try to avoid contact with people outside their environment and limit the influence of the outside world. Their clothing, such as long dresses and tailcoats for men, is very simple and modest, while women wear headscarves. The Amish are also very hardworking. Their main occupation is agriculture, which they do without the use of machines and other mechanical devices. It is important for them to do all the work by hand as well as using working animals such as horses. The Amish retain old-fashioned technology that was used many years ago. The internal Amish culture is very complex and requires respect for religious rituals that are strictly observed by members of the community. Among other things, it is forbidden to use electricity and have television and other sources of information. Despite this, the Amish are usually very friendly and helpful towards their neighbors, and they are also willing to share their culture and way of life.
