Russia is not European culture.
It is. Russia is European culture.
Considering how much German blood flows in the veins of Polish people I guess we can call them brothers too.
Its actually the opposite. Eastern Germans are most probably entirely Slavic. Just assimilated and Germanized former Slavs.
I beg to differ!
Please, spare me of these nonsenses.
Things change. Take this example... We in Serbia have medieval chronicles. Back in the middle age, German King Barbarosa visited Serbia, among else, in order to settle the deal about Germanic miners who wanted to come to work in Serbia. Then, as it is written in chronicles, during the dinner, German King and his complete escort, eaten with their hands/fingers. It was considered utter savagery in medieval Serbia. Even peasants in Serbia were more advanced then German king. And look at the situation now, after many centuries of Germanic/Anglo-Turkish/Islamic schemes around Serbia and after Slavs failed to coordinate, Germany is prosperous while Serbia tries to cope.
But, things would change again. Already change.
The term Slavic culture is as meaningless as Germanic culture in describing modern nations.
Wrong. Term `Slavic culture` is far to be meaningless. i often in my life sow how similar/same cultural bonds connects Slavs, while at the same time establishing clear difference between Slavs and non-Slavs. Culture is fundamental thing of any civilization.
