History / Kingdom of Poland Map [14]

This map is false. Even GDL in it's glory never reached that far to the east. Maybe this map is from some fiction book or game?

News / Row over status of Poles in Germany sours relations [176]

Not to mention that Lithuania doesn't respect rights of Poles living there,

Have you been to Lithuania to verify this claim? It looks like Poland in the end will make a lot of enemies but not friends. And of course we have to remember that elections are coming in Poland :D

if it comes to Poles rights in Lithuania you will not be able to sell me your fairy stories

Do you know the difference between rights and privileges? Were the rights rudely violated, Lithuania would have faced some sort of penalty by EU.

News / Row over status of Poles in Germany sours relations [176]

Where did you read such propaganda? Before the law, only lithuanian language was taught in lithuanian, all else was in polish. After the law - history, civil politics and lithuanian language. Is it a majority?

EDIT: Some schools were closed because there were very few students (why keep a class when there are 6 students) and merged with others. But the same is with lithuanian schools.

History / Poland's biggest historical blunder? [341]

It looks like some of you don't know or simply omit some facts to justify your truth.
1)Vilnius(Wilno) had majority of jews and poles were second in number, while surrounding towns and villages had majority of lithuanians. Most of you either forget or convienently omit fact that at those times only 20% of population lived in cities.

2)Claiming that Lithuania invaded and started "lithuanize" the Vilnius district is complete nonsense. When Lithuania decalred independence, Vilnius was it's capital. Poland took over the city only after Lithuania left the city and soviets took over.

3)Lithuania was neutral during Polish-Soviet war. The only "help" was that it allowed transit through territories which were slowly taken over from soviets by Lith-Sov peace treaty.

4)Technically UK honored her guarantee on Poland by declaring war on Germany. Guarantee was meant only against Hiltler, Soviet Union was another matter.
5)Saying that Ukrainian army were the only evil force doing terrible things is inacurate, Poland did the same.

History / Poland's biggest historical blunder? [341]

Not true. Poles made 60% of all inhabitants of the region.

You are mistaken. 60% was before the start of ww2

Again, not true. In November 1918 Vilnius was claimed by newly formed Belarusian state, however shortlived that was (Soviets captured it next month, Poland in April 1919). There was no Lithuanian presence there until the end of August 1920, after Soviets lost the Battle of Warsaw.

Lithuania declared full independence in february 16 1918, with Vilnius as its capital which was captured in january 5-6 1919 by soviets.

Not really, since Poland making counteroffensive in September encountered Lithuanian troops where they were previously pushed back by Soviets. That's effectively joining the war.

Poland simply ignored Lithuania's neutrality and broke through Lithuania's lines, thus entering foreign territory. Thats how polish-lithuanian war started.

EDIT:

Ironside, it is you who is ignorant.

for slow people - Independence declared in concern with Germany who controlled lands of a new independent ?state - phew!

The were two declarations:
1)1917 12 11. With ties with Germany
2)1918 02 16 full independance
yes, i agree that germans did all to disrupt local goverment, yet they failed and Lithuania became independant.

Except there wa no Lithuanian administration there, but whatever.

If there were no administration, then what did government evacuated when soviets were approaching Vilnius?

The territory wasn't polish, it was captured from soviets. Lithuania was never an ally to soviet union. If you have any proof just state it, but don't throw empty words. If Poland lost Warsaw, Lithuania's fate would grim, i agree. Excellent country was that who saved from soviets yet tried to adsorb Lithuania herself

Koala

A bunch of lunatics? Pretty much trhoughout WW1 until November 1918 Vilnius was under German administration, in November 1918 the city was under Belarussian administration and fell into Soviet hands a month later.

There was no Belarus republic. The only one i heard of was made by soviets when they invaded Lithuania, but soon was forgoten when Lithuania kicked out soviets. Germany didn't have so much control as you would think and don't forget that Lithuania had just declared independence and started slowly take control of the land, while germans were slowly pulling out home.

Simply, in September 1920 Lithuanian were together with soviets on the front that was purely Soviet in June 1920:

Those territories were Lithuania's, yet Poland breached lithuanians lines and used that breach to flank soviets and move toward Vilnius.

News / Polish Students Striking in Lithuania [80]

nonsense, they can educate their children in Lithuanian and Polish taxpayers are paying for all that.

So? Lithuanian taxpayers are paying for polish schools in Lithuania who have even bigger funding than lithuanian ones.

Why? I don't hate them. Nay, she just conveniently forget to mention her husband.

So you had a little "chat" with her husband? :D

Look, we had this discussion before, there is no question about that, your government discriminate Poles.

And how do are they discriminated? More than than minorities in Poland?

Its not about chat, is about her lies.

check our previous discussion, unfortunately I forged that thread title.Minorities in Poland are far from being discriminated against, that is the point.

You love to scream that poles are discriminated, yet Poland does that for 20 years. Compare education laws for minorities in Poland and Lithuania.

I don't hate them, silly, I'm not impressed thought. Question is whatever they are nation at all and if they are maybe their are Samogitians famous for their stubbornness and inflexibility.

Yeah, but in every discussion, that has anything about lithuanians, you call them idiots, bastards, etc.

They you go, a chart that compares rights of minorities in Poland and Lithuania:

That newspaper is funded by awpl, so any info regarding lithuanian-polish relations or education is not shown in true colors. It is like looking in some polish kresy website. Find some real evidence.

You constantly repeat that lithuanians discriminate poles in many ways, maybe you could give us top 10 facts of discrimination? Also, before you start, think about Poland's policies towards minorities, especially german minority.

Ironside, you are saying that everyone in Poland must learn polish language, but in Lithuania learning lithuanian is waste of time. Maybe you should find some new hobby instead of crying how evil is Lithuania.

History / Lithuanians hate Poles? [156]

They have problems with their history books, I understand that all history books are biased in some ways but their books should be called fiction because thats what they are.

And which history books are not biased?

In Lithuania property reclaimed 90% of owners (or their progeny )and only 15% Polish owners

And what political party has highest influence in Vilnius region? As far as i know it is your beloved AWPL. Ask Tomaszewski where is land that poles can't get back.

To mods: This thread is intentionally created to cause hatred, please close it.

Can you read?

And what do you think? We communicate in written form not in verbal :D

Actually, delphiandomine has point. Are there many people in Poland who refuse to learn polish and yet they live in Poland?

Maybe language courses for older adults would be more appropriate instead of the proposed reform?

And how many would go to those courses? I guess very few

That's their choice and loss.

Not all are fluent in lithuanian language. If they are fluent, why should they get easier exams? Thing is, they used to learn all subjects except lithuanian language in polish, while in Poland it is otherwise.

I wish the Lithuanians were more pro-Polish :/

Well, before all that "discrimination" crap started, most lithuanians were sympathetic or neutral towards poles. After Tomasevski and Sikorski show, approval went down. Say thanks to those guys.

I truly believe PiƂsudski did everything he could to prevent

He could have left those territories to Lithuania and have a friend instead of enemy. That would have benefited the whole region.

refuse to honour an agreement with Poland (from 1994).

Yeah, yeah, keep babbling.

hat would have require general change of their myths and fiction they call history.

And what is the true history? History made by you?

judging by the example of pictoonis I doubt that, he is cheeky, ignorant, lazy, stubborn and last but least he likes himself this way.

Maybe you should go out for a bit, talk with people, see that there is world around you, not only propaganda you believe so much. Or maybe you just need a girlfriend... xDD

Fluency in given language shouldn't be seen as the ability to pass Matura exam from this language, which require additional knowledge (for example, of full spectrum of national literature) and skills, not only competence in writing and speaking in Polish/Lithuanian.

Well, lithuanian exam has 2 parts: grammar test and interpretation. You don't have to know every literature book. Many poles have difficulties writing in lithuanian, part of them hardly speaks lithuanian. It is enough to listen to Tomasevski, his speech is far from perfect.

No one forces you to be Brazaukas, you can be Brzozovski (w is not in lithuanian aphabet). Lithuanian suffixes are not a must. I have plenty of neighbors who have their surnames ending -ski, -in, -ko and other.
