History / Is Poland a Slavic country?! (politics included) [90]

Firstly I should say I'm not Polish, not even partly Polish.

So I was wondering if Poland is/was a Slavic country at all? As far as I know history Poland was inhabitated only by Slavic tribes. The country wasn't occupied by other cultures throughout time, but what really stands out in Poland is the different phenotype of people as like they are mixed.

Most prime-ministers of Poland don't look too Polish to me.

But I know Politics and this doesn't look like a coincidence. There is definitely some leftist part of history which obviously I don't know about. For these guys to be there it indicates that people in Poland generally have (leftist) understanding of history.

*Leftist cultures are Asian(or non-European) cultures. Is there some Asiatic part of Polish history we don't know much about? Was there some tribe that came from Asia and settled in modern-day Poland or not?! As far as I know there were no Hunnic or later Mongol invasions inside Poland?

Sarmatian is clearly non-Slavic element. It's one of the hordes of the East.
So you are either Slavic... or Sarmatian. Or do you want to say that Poland is a mixture of both cultures?
Seems reasonable when I look at the variety of people in Poland.
But the more shocking thing is that it looks like the Sarmatian element seems to be the more dominant component in Polish politics.
Why don't you openly say that you are not full-Slavic then?
From what I read from history it doesn't indicate the presence of another tribe alongside while in reality there is.
Or they are just not well-documented?

This is plain stupid. I'm not gonna comment on all the nonsense you just wrote.
As you see I'm not even doubting the Sarmatian presence in modern day Poland (and probably to a wider area outside of Poland), but according to your anti-Science theory everything outside of the old Roman border should be considered "Sarmatic" which is... I don't know what to say. stupid is a kind word of this.

But that really shows that lots of Poles actually think they are these... Sarmatian invaders (because they ARE). Sarmatian tribes are Iranic tribes who are coming from the East. And no, they are not autochtonous for Europe. It's well written in the chronicles when they arrive, and they arrive after AD so stop claiming pra-historic traits.

Real Poles should look at you as what you are.. invaders and barbarians. Not real Europeans.

Don't start a discussion which I've never started.
If you read carefully what I read it's basically what I wrote: Polish people are a mixture of at least two substrates (one of which is the original Slavic Poles, who are the old people of Europe and who created the Polish kingdom around 1000AD, and the other one is the substrate of neighbouring or assimilated (a big question is still who assimilated whom) tribes of the Asiatic invaders, who (according to the Polish school of history) are these Sarmatians of Iranian stock you talk about. They have probably stayed with the Poles (then named Poliane, Wisliane, Pomorzane and so on) ever since the collapse of Attilla's empire.

That's why Polish people look different. They come from different substrates.

And this are solely mine observations, and I definitely didn't read it somewhere. Althought I had to admit I've needed some refreshment on the Internet about this leftist (asiatic) culture of Sarmatians.

I've never said Poles shouldn't live in Poland. But it's you who are implying the origin of Poles as only Sarmatian. For you Polish people is equal to Sarmatian people, which is not true.

In my mind History textbooks should be written accordingly. I'd be curious to check what's written in the official Polish history textbooks for students.. cuz only the Slavic theory just doesn't stack. I'm not sure if they have written the Sarmatian part somewhere inside there.

And no.. I'm not German, not related to Germany. I don't think I'm obligated to say where I'm from, should I? You are getting too personal. I've never been on these boards. I've searched it through google yesterday for the first time. If you say something on topic will be interesting I guess.

Life / Polish-Canadian wanting to move to Poland - trying to start a new life, make friends, combat depression etc. [10]

I don't know what you don't like in Canada.
Yes, the standard of living is high, and that's why you pay high rents. It's connected.
If you live in a cheaper place, that basically means you will earn a lot less also.
I myself have been considering move to Canada for a long time, but never realized it , partly because you need to give money to Canadian lawyers just to analize your situation..

If I knew I'd be 100% (or close to that) able to go I'd be probably be there by now.
At that age people rarely make good life-changing choices.
When I was 20 I firstly flew to the US... and I didn't have a damn idea where I was at that point of life. I mean I like it and everything but I wasn't commited to want to stay there. Some 12 years forward I feel sorry that I didn't tried harder to settle there permanently. I was just enjoying life and wasn't thinking about life- long term. Now at this age 30+ I'm not having the same chances of doing something.

Remember that not everything you do is for good. There's also an option to move to another place in the same country if something goes wrong. I think lots of people don't realize there is this option too.
