Poles and Russians -- love-hate relationship? [209]
Hire you would find good quotation in case with Slavic past. It is said that Catholic encyclopedia support theory that original home of the Slavs is along the Danube and on the Adriatic coast. Same position has Slavic autochtonistic school. First, famous Czech slavist- Pavel Josef Safaric supported that theory.
I meant modern slavs. Some say the very first ancestors of Slavs were the Sarmatians, and people have other theories. But the one I've seen most was that the first slavic settlements to pop up were near the Vistula :)
Were you born in Poland or USA?
USA while my mother was on vacation :)
NOT the slaves!
Nobody said Slavs were the fist europeans.......where'd you get that idea???
Your version of history is untold with good reason Crow...
History is written by the victors. Even Churchill said :"History will be kind to me, for I intend to right it"
I'm not trying to argue with anyone here. I've just stated facts that I've read much more than once, sometimes hundreds of times. Each country has its own version of history. Thats why I've taken multiple sources like Polish history books, English, American, French, Italian, German, The Bible, hell even the Khuran (spelling?) and I've made up my mind about certain things. You can't just always believe what you're taught, find things out yourself sometimes :)
Just merely stating facts accepted by historians is all, I didn't think it'd spark such arguements :)
