@Wroclaw
It is foolish to even reconsider Wroclaw to be "German" settlement. It were build by the Czech "Slav" Wratislaus I. Wroclaw were ruled by Slavs until the 1740's and then passed to the prussian king.

During the War of the Austrian Succession in the 1740s, most of Silesia was annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia. Prussia's claims were derived from the agreement, rejected by the Habsburgs, between the Silesian Piast rulers of the duchy and the Hohenzollerns who secured the Prussian succession after the extinction of the Piasts.

@Prussia
Prussians are Proto-Balto-Slavic, they have nothing to do with with the germans. The Polish Duke invited The Teutonic Order to defend his borders and subdue the pagan Baltic Prussians. The Order invited germans to their newly founded lands to help them in the Crusade against the Prussian pagans, after a while the germans settled down there for good and assimilated with the prussians and the poles (both slavs). When the prussians got tired of the "german" order they made an revolt and joined the Polish forces against the german order and threw them out of the Prussian Lands and became Polish fiefs. And the germans who had settled there with the Order stayed in Poland and became loyal tax paying citizents for centuries.

@Aristocracy
The Aristocracy were not for everyone in Poland. The Aristocracy were the upper class that held the power in Poland. The Polish magnates were members of the Aristocracy they owned most of the land in Poland and ruled their lands like small kings. The Polish king had almost nothing to say to the polish Magnates how they should rule their estates, but ofcourse the Magnates did pay taxes and all that but they had priviliges that the normal noblility didn't have (Paid less taxes and so on).

I would disagree. So did millions of Polish peasants and incidentally, many historians still disagree. Polish nobility during partitions fvcked up big time.

Durring communism people with such origin//family history had very hard life.

I am ready for debate about transformations in our society.

I have the map with Slavic nations in eastern Germany (early middle ages) Lustians speak their own language have their own towns names etc.

Veleti (Wieleci) live there ...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veleti

The remnants of the Slavic tribes were gradually Germanized and assimilated during the following centuries.

so one thousend years ago ...

Bratwurst I have some questions:
Which Germans were traditionaly stronger ? From the east or from the west of the country ?
Who unified your country in 19th century ?
Which land has been dominant in Germany before WWII?

KLM Engineering & Maintenance, working together with German paint supplier Mankiewicz, has developed a new aircraft painting system. The application of thinner paint layers reduces the weight of the paint by a full 15%. As a result, the aircraft consumes less fuel and produces fewer CO2 emissions. This is contributed to by the fact that the thinner layer is also smoother.
