How will Poland be affected by WW3 which has now started [559]
* show middle finger to the Pope
Before the Polish-Lithuanian union that turned our attention east, Poland was pretty much integrated into catholic Europe. We were not a core country, like the Kingdom of France, but had a status similar to kingdoms of Scandinavia. Grand Duchy of Lithuania received western Christianity via Poland. Our first royal family, the Piasts had strong dynastic ties with Sweden, Norway and the Germanic duchies, Jagiellonians on the other hand with Czech and Hungarian kingdoms,and later also with Habsburgs.
* enter in local alliance with Hungary and Serbia
Hungary is too butthurt towards virtually every neighbor (and doesn't conceal the fact it wants to steal their lands). Even Czechs and Slovaks were unable to closely cooperate after 1989 and had to divorce in 1993. Central European block is an unrealistic illusion. Even our former ruling party, Law and Justice, which loved to indulge in such fantasies, didn't dare to propose leaving the EU for some unclear central European alternative. They knew the Polish people would swiftly end them like the Ukrainians ended Janukovych's regime.
