  • Ten flim był kolorowy zresztą co to ma być!

    Przeciesz w połowie przylażł darth vader i rozwalił jungena tak mam w książce

  • co to za miusic w tle?? robi wrażenie

  • I feel kinda bad that other Poles keep saying "We did it all, Lithuania just ran away", and "Poland was more important than Lithuania all the time".

    Those were forces of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, not just Poland or Lithuania.

    Besides, Lithuania was enormous, if it wasn't for Lithuania, the Commonwealth would have been much, much smaller.

    I'm Polish, but when it comes to Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, I never forget about how important Lithuania was.

  • @Monxy100

    important, yes. Smaller, with less income (but far from poor!), and with less real political power, but still an essential and integral part of commonwealth. So what? It was a commonwealth, one country. For reference: Polish–Lithuanian_Commonwealth at en wiki.

  • szkoda tylko, że sceny bitwy pod Grunwaldem nie kręcone były pod Grunwaldem ;)

  • Zobaczie moj film o Polsce, GRUNWALD.

    CHeck out my film about Grunwald. 

  • German soldiers fought in the rows of the Polish army as long as there was generally a Poland. In the early Middle Ages, they did not stand as a support people of slavic sovereigns rarely against its own emperor. German peers received large Begüterungen as a wage that they fought 1410 in fir mountain Grunwald bravely against the order knights.

  • @Polish607 Best to do research yourself and not ask others and relly on teachers and historyans because they hide the truth... so in conclusion i want to say that none of us (Lithuanians,Polish people and Germans) know exactly what happened ^^

    Good luck and thanks for the conversation.

  • @Polish607 See that wasn't so hard not to swear :D there are many stories about this battle.All the fantasy broke out just 100 years after the battle...I guess we will only know that when a time machine is invented :D nobody knows exactly how it happened even if it's written the person could of exadurated.

  • @DelTevynes Poland grasped the German...  Out of revenge, the entire city systematically was destroyed and was devastated totally

  • @Polish607 maybe ;) ok now let's have a normal conversation not the one you started with curse words...See a foreign writter (or someone) wrote that Lithuanian cavalry retreat was planned and that they rallied and charged again and Polish people say what happened ?

  • @Polish607 Ignorant bastard... i have never met a normal Polish person that doesn't speak lies.

  • @Polish607 dokładnie stary

    pozdrawiam

  • Grunwald is a lithuanian victory...

  • @WhitePolishPatriot to było Polskie zwycięstwo litwini spierdolili w krzaki

  • @PLNacjonalista This was like Lithuania 55% Poland 40% and other country merceneries 5% :)

  • @DelTevynes what? about 70% was Polish knights, rest was Lithuanian, tatars and other mercenaries. Lithuanian forces was most light cavalry which run from the battlefield.

  • @PLNacjonalista hahaha go read books :D Lithuania ran and rallied and did a charge from the rear that led to the victory :)

  • @DelTevynes you read about this in lithuanian books?

    man read disinterested books

    When Poland was strong and big, lithuanians wearing leathers and live in wood.

    Lithuanians ran away and dont came back.

    hahahahahahahhahahaha

  • @PLNacjonalista like you are a nationalist of Poland i am of Lithuania now please do as i say

    1.find someone who speaks Lithuanian

    2.show him watch?v=K3BXZl7cq30&feature=re­lated

    3.let him translate

    it tells that Lithuania's archealogists found armors and weapons that showed that Lithuania was as good equiped as theyre neighbours (that includes Poland)

    and if we were to fight in leather for 20 minutes we would of died :) good luck nationalist ^^ and next time let's keep a descent conversation:)

  • @PLNacjonalista

    They did came back. I´m from the Netherlands, and chroniclers here tell us that the Lithuanian cavalry retreat was planned in order to get the Teutonic Knights into the fields. This is one of the most heroic action in Middle-Ages. Nonetheless, no matter what happened, nor the Polish nor the Lithuanians would have survived if they where not together. They needed eichother and kicked some German ass:)

  • @WhitePolishPatriot stary poczytaj troche zanim coś napiszesz. To było nasze zwycięstwo

  • @PLNacjonalista uzasadnij bo to jak napisałeś ze spierdolili w krzaki to niewiele mówi ... Polacy też schowali się w lesie ale ani my ani litwini nie zrobili tego z powodu strachu . jesteś szowinista a nie nacjonalistą, główną robotę odwalili litwini

  • @WhitePolishPatriot schować się przed słońcem a uciec z pola bitwy to co innego.

    Niech Ci będzie - litwini WYCOFALI się i już nie wrócili. Natomiast krzyżacy wrócili z pościgu za litwinami i włączyli się do bitwy. Nie wierzysz - poczytaj. Oczywiście w jakiś sposób pomogli nam wygrać. Ale my odwaliliśmy zdecydowaną większość roboty. Chyba nie sądzisz że lekkie odziane w skóry litewskie oddziały mogły się równać z Polskimi i krzyżackimi zakutymi w stal rycerzami. Taka jest prawda.

  • @ramizuPL przepraszam ,sugerując się Twoją końcówką w nicku "PL", myślałem żeś z Polski i posługujesz się polską historiografią.Jeszcze raz przepraszam,lecz dla większości Niemców hasło Tannenberg ( ,kojarzy się z rokiem 1914 a jeszcze bardziej kojarzą go z "potęgą" cesarstwa niemiecko-pruskiego II Rzeszy , mauzoleum-pomnikiem Hindenburga.Pozdrawiam , szacunek za całokształt i pasję poznawania historii.

  • Tannenberg to nie Grunwald a Stębark pod którym Prusacy walczyli z Rosją.Popraw to.

  • @susepoland

    Pierwsza bitwa pod Tannenbergiem to w niemieckiej historiografii to samo co u nas bitwa pod Grunwaldem, a bitwa o której mówisz to druga bitwa pod Tannenbergiem. Niemniej dzięki za komentarz, pozdrawiam.

  • @ramziuPL To tylko kwestia propagandy: Niemcy nazywają Grunwald Tannenbergiem, bo pozwala im to podciągnąć prawdziwą bitwę pod Tannenbergiem (1914) jako rewanż za Grunwald. A że to pierwsze to nie Tannenberg, a drugie to nie zwycięstwo nad Polakami, to już się tym specjalnie nie przejmują. Ważne, że się mogą dowartościować.

  • @susepoland Mylisz sie:

  • @susepoland co ty pedale szkopski mi tu piszesz na naszą historie!! Władysław Jagiełło poślubił polską księżną i Tak powsała historia gdzie rycerze jazda konna czego sarmaccy nauczyli rzymian czyli polski teraz i na zawsze i w 1410 RYCERZE I CHŁOPI zdobyli wolność dla POLSKI!!! ORZEŁ W KORONIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

  • a kiedyś Litwini mieli nakręcić swoją wersję tej bitwy bo uważali że poniżono ich w tym filmie uważając ich za zwykłych dzikusów , co nie jest prawdą ... byli tak naprawdę odważniejsi od naszych ...

  • @1453Galatasaray Fakt, nie byli dzikusami. Tylko 20% mieszkańców Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego było rodowitymi Litwinami. Pozostała część była Rusinami, a oni stali na bardzo przyzwoitym poziomie kulturalnym i cywilizacyjnym. Już w czasach Jagiełły język litewski był w zaniku. On sam mówił po Rusku. Nie był też tak na prawdę poganinem, bo matka była prawosławna i właściwie wychował się w otoczeniu chrześcijan. Przyjęcie katolicyzmu to była już betka dla niego ;)

  • @Pit2x Don,t make my laugh, maybye learn history, for example chronicals wrote what language Jogaila used for talking with Vytautas in 1430 meating in Luck.

  • @LaukineShiaure I co z tego, że rozmawiali po Litewsku? Nie zmienia to faktu, że językiem urzędowym w Wielkim Księstwie Litewskim był starobiałoruski :)

  • @1453Galatasaray Dlaczego odważniejsi ? Przecież nasi rycerze słyneli z męstwa w całej Europie - taki Zawisza .

  • @Husarz28 Zawisza to pojedynczy rycerz ,a naród litewski słynął w tamtych czasach z czynów takich jak pierwsze uderzenie lekkiej jazdy na krzyżaków w tej bitwie , ale również oblężenie Kowna i różne drobniejsze bitwy w których Litwini popisali się wręcz fanatyzmem bo już nie odwagą ...

  • @1453Galatasaray tak tylko że pod Grunwaldem Witold próbował ich powstrzymać przed ucieczką biczem i krzykiem . Przecież to Jagiełło kazał Litwinom najpierw zaatakować wroga .

  • @1453Galatasaray ale mówiąc "naród litewski" rozumiem że masz na myśli wszystkie te rozliczne narodowści jakie tam mieszkały np. Tatarów widocznych na tym filmie? WKL sięgało aż poza Ukraine, Litwini jako tacy byli mniejszością

  • @MsAppleeater to fakt litwinów w ich państwie nie było zbyt wielu ale księstwo btł w miarę pożądnym państwem jak na owe czasy

  • @ramziuPL czemu?

  • In simple words for everyone :P Poland and Lithuania established union to kick tauteonic asses and make come good moves in region ;] Jagiełło was Duke of Lithuania. In 1386 he married daughter of polish king Ludwik Węgierski and he became King of Poland.

    Dont forget to be see the battle next week ;] 17.07.2010r !!

  • dobry film, mile mnie zaskoczył, na początku dodałbym tylko odgłos mieczy uderzanych przez Jagiełłe dla wzmocnienia efektu, ale to tylko takie subiektywne odczucie. 5!

  • @krzysio208 i jeszcze na koniec zabrakło najbardziej sugestywnego momentu: składania zdobytych chorągwi

    Pozdrawiam.

  • Poland was HUGE imperium !

  • @CanBeYours You have just insulted your country! Poland wasn't imperial, it was a peacefull republic forced to fight.

  • @CanBeYours was

  • ja osobiście tą bitwę nazywam, bitwą między wschodem a zachodem europy po stronie krzyżaków Frankończycy, anglisy, hispanie. a po naszej Białorusini Smoleńscy itp..

  • @romekpmc A Ruscy z Nowogrodu? Też, a i Tatary są! No i wschód wygrał!

  • bardzo dobrze tylko Latvia to Łotwa a nie Litwa ( Lithuania ;) )

  • there's no difference so don't bother so much anymore.Latvia and Lithuania are brother nations.

  • Jak sie na zywa ta pieśń ?

    Bardzo prosze o odpowiedz

  • Początek to "Bogurodzica" śpiewana w filmie Bitwa pod Grunwaldem (jakieś 20 sekund) a potem to nie wiem

  • i think you need a good kick in the ass

  • dont tok just do it baby

  • I dont wan`t to say anything about POLAND but you guyz are spitting shits about Lithuania. We were one country ^^ Polish guys always says Lithuania didint help us bla bla bla..

  • Well , there were some things we blamed you about, and some you blamed us about ... usual thing in case of divorces ;)

  • @xMoNaco I don't think so, I don't know who you talk to, we know about Lithuania, it' in the film too

  • Go educate yourselfe...

  • A mnie najbardziej podoba się Fragment, jak Wielki Mistrz pada z rąk zwykłego, polskiego chłopa :)

  • @LeruaMerleu chlopi nie mieli w zwyczaju walczyc.... dopiero batory wprowadzil cos co zwano piechota wybraniecka

  • 0:56 najlepszy moment gdy nasi wybiegają z lasu

  • świetny filmik, jak reszta serii

    sceny batalistyczne z "Krzyżaków" jak na tamte czasy stoją na światowym poziomie, nawet w dzisiejszych czasach nie wyglądają sztucznie, jak np. na rosyjskim gównie, pełnym żenady i propagandy - "1612".

  • Co to za muzyka ?? film Swietnie zrobiony :) 5

  • Bogurodzica.

  • Oj, nie tylko.

    Not only.

  • It was a law in Poland in XIV century that only the king could to manage the country. Please look into any historical book about this matter and you can find sentence like that "Jadwiga of Anjou (1373/4 July 17, 1399) was a Monarch of Poland from 1384 to her death. Her official title was 'king' rather than 'queen' "

  • @Czetwertynski yes she was king, not queen, odd but true

  • Język urzędowy (w Koronie łacina, później polski, na Litwie do 1699 r. białoruski, a dopiero później polski)

    Official language (in Crown latin, later Polish; in Lithuania until 1699 byelorussian, later Polish)

    Choć myślę że plebs zawsze mówił po litewsku tak jak u nas w czasie łaciny i innych obcych języków urzędowych.

  • In 1466 when Moldavia was polish vassal. "polaks language is fucked up"??? In XVI,XVII,XVIII,XIX and even XX your ancestors speaked in polish language. On yours ground stayed traces of Polish culture. And dont call Poles "polack".

  • when lithuania was from sea to sea?

  • back to the ages when nowdays Belarus and Ukraine was part of Grand Duchy of Lithuania, there was no vassality (like Moldova was to Polish kingdom), it was teritory of GDL

  • @juokis

    Yes, it's true. Grand Duchy of Lithuania had territories from Baltic Sea to Black Sea.

  • btw, it was from the Baltic sea to the Black sea

  • type " Poland Borders 990 -2008 " on youtube and you'll see from sea to sea

  • i think  that was 16 - 17 century... google it you will check

  • @lllubieRS

    No, exactly 1410. It was one battle in the Great War with Teutonic Knights (1409-1411).

  • True, but i was talking to someone who had question when Poland was from sea to sea.

  • no no no, just in PL duke and prince is książe.

  • Gaude, mater Polonia,

    prole fecunda nobili!

  • today it is exactly 599 years ago.

  • Braty ja wam tylko powiem ze niedoceniacie roli litwinow w bitwie pod grunwaldem. Mowiono ze oni uciekli a niedawne odkrycia kronikarskie dowodza ze byl to odwrot ktory zaabsorwowal sily krzyzackie. Moze wyskoczylem jak partyzant ,ale chcialem zauwazyc wage dzialan litwinow w tej bitwie z ktorej wszyscy ich wykreslaja.

  • Prawdę mówisz, mało kto wie, ale bitwa ta przerodziła się po pewnym czasie w zbite grupy walczących. Lekka jazda Litwy i Ruska odciągała Krzyżaków, męczyły ostrzałem , dzięki czemu łatwiej było ich pokonać. To jest taktyka, która pokazała geniusz Litwina, rządzącego Polska i Litwą.

  • Napewno odkrycia tego dokonali litewscy historycy.Nie dziwie sie ze odwrot zaabsorbowal uwage niemcow.Nigdy wczesniej nie widzeli tak wielu uciekajacych na raz.Parafrazujac nigdy jeszcze  w historii tak wielu nie uciekalo przed tak nie wieloma.

  • Слава Предкам!

  • Gdy inne państwa są obronne wodą, mają porty warowne, góry niedostępne, my nic... Owe zewsząd do Polaków pola i grogi nieprzyjacielowi wyborne, przestrzenne; postąpi, ustąpi, wejdzie, wynijdzie: żywności, jeńców nabierze, gdzie chce i jako chce. W samych rękach naszych, piersiach i gardłach naszych munitia nasza to nasze góry, to nasze wody, to zamki, mury i wały Polski.

    Piotr Grabowski: O pięciu rzeczach Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej należących, 1595

  • nice to find out ,that Czechs were helping too .

    on Polish - Lithuanian side

    well our kings was Jagellons hundred years later.

  • you are right- there was 3 brave Czechs squads of elite infantry:)

  • We Czechs had a polish kings - Jagelonci ...for over hundred years after hussite wars ..and Czechs were helping ..Poles ..

  • This werent polish kings- Jagiellon dynasty come from Lithuania. Doesnt metter.. Important is that you really helped us. Sad that we werent in alliance in 1939. Poland and Czechs could stop german barbarians once more like under Grunwald...

  • Long life to Poland and Lithuania- two greatest nations in history!!!

  • Lithuania.. STFU! Spit out this word, our brother betrayed. They left us at WW2 and even, whats worst, THEY HELP HITLER. There is no more PL-LT brotherhood.

  • never was...

  • ziutek998.Lithuania left that brotherhood of poland aggression to Vilnius and land around it, that territory had never belonged  to poland. If poland was so good,so why they attacked?

  • and grammar. Although non-Polish administrations in Poland sometimes attempted, historically, to suppress the Polish language, a rich literature has nonetheless developed over the centuries, and many works by Polish authors are available in translations in English and other languages.

  • Polish (język polski, polszczyzna), an official language of Poland, has the largest number of speakers of any West Slavic language and, as for all the Slavic languages, its popularity is second only to Russian.[4] Polish-speakers use the language in a uniform manner through most of Poland, and it has a Latin-based orthography. The language developed indigenously and retains many ancient Slavic features of pronunciation

  • and about ur inviting teutonic order to duchy lands :D yh thats for the freash meat coz they failed masivly.... exept we hate u mostly coz it was ur foult of inviting them , then they massacre our 3rd tribal bloodlines brother sister Prusa [prussia renamed by germans] Thanks Alot :D Outof 3 brothers/sisters left only 2 Lietuva/Latvia .. oh yeah go to wikipedia or something read about IndoEuropean [its our language] not polish not russia u fags.. :D

  • chirstian holidays or customs is 95% pagan...90% of ltu populiations reject chirstianity.. 5% r polish or other minoritys...5% old ppl after ww2 survivors who still believes in jesus coz they think he saved them .... Btw Hitler said : Blame Polad for the Jews in Europe, Warsaw is Jew capital in europe. Not that im supporting his words..just rewriting them here...Proud that 26Batallions of LTU joined Wermacht to fight Komunists [not proud of Nazi genocide].. so stop trowing trashwords if u dont

  • Lituanian soldiers from Lietuvos Vietine Rinktine during WW2 fightt not with komiunist. They fight with Polish AK and they were defeated 13 and 14.05.1944 by Polish 3, 8, 9, 12 and 13 AK Brigades.Lituanian brave soldiers were sent baack to Jaszun, Wilno and Oszmiany

    only in underclothes :)

  • Vietine rinktine means Lockal Volunteers not regular army udouche..btw who fcked up 100 000 ur regular army soldires to fuck u back from vilnius....

  • I do not know who ? I do not remember Lituanian soldier detached Wilno from Poland or polish soldiers.

    I think that You do not have to be vulgar.

    From other side In Wilno in 1916 live 2,6% Lithuanians and 50,2% Poles ( list of population made by Germans ) In 1931 0,8% Lithuanians and 65,9% Poles.

    I think there are no reason to treate Wilno as only Lithuanian city. It is city of many nations.

  • Vilnius - international Lithuanians city :))) There are many Jews, many Russians, many Belorussians, many Ukrainians and also Lithuanians. Also there are many niggers, Asians and etc. Every nation is welcome in this beautiful city!

  • I know that mane nations live in Wilno now , also about 100 000 Poles ( it is about 20% of citizens ) I know that it is beauttifull city :)

  • Newest statistics says, that there lives 17% of poles and this number is declining very hard, because of emigration and negative Poles increase. Especially this number is declining in Vilnius district.

  • Meybe You are right , meybe it is emigration , so meybe not all nations are welcome in this beautiful city :)

  • Everyone is welcome, but well Poles want to live like millionaires so they emigrate to GB ^^ Good luck to them ^^

  • meybe You are right :)

  • SpellHowlerAidas - You are agrsive and primitive. Your lunguage testify about Your culture. I think it is Your big problem.

  • lol, maybe you should take your pills, I really pity you. You clearly have some mental problems, such hate :D

  • ;D so what that there was 50% of poles sometime just picouse you have it ocupied LOL, but Wilno was build by all ages by lithuanians and it is etnografic place of lithuanians I dont know ehat they teaches you in poland shools , but youre opinion makes me angry just picouse you have ocupied vilniu for a short time doesnt mean its youres !!!! so fuck this opinion it's the same as I will say that part of Ireland is lithuanians picouse there is a lot of them living there ^^

  • Please try think without notice .

    I wrote city of many nations not polish city.

    After WW I Wilno was Polish now is Lithuanians.

    In long history Wilno was also Lithuanian and Polish becouse Lithuanians in meaning nation as people talking in lithuanian lunguage was rather peasant and they can not hae big influence for developing Wilno. Almost all nobilitis or officials, and big part of townspeople were Poles or polonized Lithuanians or Russians. They talk Polish or Russian lunguage.

  • yeas there was many polish nobilitys but all lithuanian kings were living there, city was started by lithuanians and was always(except short period after ww1) runned by lithuanians and it was ALWAYS territory of lithuania , its just we accepted all emigrants , there was also so many jews they called wilno a litle jerusaleum

    and there was many russians picouse at medyval ages lithuanians were rulling alot of russian lands up to black see

  • I agree that Lithuanian Kings were living in Wilno but from 1447 - 1569 polish kings were also king of Lithuania.

    From 1569 to 1795 Lithuania Duchy is part of Polish Pepublic with capital in Warsaw and polish king is also king of Grat Duchy. King of Poland was elected by nobilities from Poland and Lithuania.

    I think that there are many reason we may be proud becouse of union of our nations .

  • wrong

    lithuania has never kings, they were never kingdom

    there were only grand duke of lithuania

  • lithuania were kingdom in XIII century...asshole

  • do not offence me but please write, who was first king of LTV, when hew gained crow nad HOW, or those questions are too hard yor you.

  • First king was Mindaugas...He gained crown in 1253 and was assassinated in 1263...Lithuania- Poland had many Kings...

  • LT+PL? LOL? PL+LT. It was your PRINCE which married our QUEEN and he begin KING OF POLAND. It was PL+LT not LT+PL, if he will be a king then will be LT+PL but he wasn't so don't change facts!

  • Lithuania never had prince...

  • You idiot, guy who marry our queen was a prince (DUKE)

  • only idiot here is you...prince and duke is two diferent things

  • ROLF, it means the same. Just in English is fucked up

  • we are not English in Lithuania were only one King many Dukes and grand Dukes...i never heard that sombody Duke called Prince...perhaps Duke means prince for you but for me Duke is Duke...peace...lets stop commenting :)

  • Yeah, just in PL duke and prince is the same word and sometimes I forget about it :D

  • @ziutek998 just say you were not right, it's not f... up

  • Jadwiga was the KING, not a queen. Please check on books or on wikipedia.

  • First one and last one.

  • Borpiast, in Lithuaninan_Polish commonweatlh Lithuania wasn't part fo Polish Republic. First becouse Polish republic didn't exist - it was Kingdom. Second - it was union of two indpendent states. So Lithuania wasn't parto of Poland. Claiming that is the same if I say that Poland was part of Lithuania. Thank you.

  • @gegrenas lithuania was nothing without us, just a bunch of savage pagan beasts, you would have been defeated without us, have some honour and admit it....

  • @KatolickieScierwo

    ow realy... and your king was lithuanian too...

  • @pasiputez With the passing of time he was getting more and more Polish..

  • @KatolickieScierwo ohhh what a argument, how deep

  • @KatolickieScierwo the same way about Poland, have some honor and admit it

  • @gegren

    Poland and Lithuania became one country. Lithuania was not part of Poland, or Poland part of Lithuania. It was a commonwealth of two Nations !! very successful one I may add..... cheers !as

  • @arka67 successful for Lithuania, but slightly less for Poland in the end ;) Mostly because of the wars with Sweden. Oh well ;)

    Anyways, Republic of Nations had a single elective king, and it was *sort of* democratic (only nobles had a vote). Also insanely powerful before it has fallen. That is the risk of the democracy - electors might prove wrong... and it went wrong ;)

  • @lordplenty

    Wars with Sweden would happen anyway !

    Commonwealth was very successful for Poland, because we managed to survive 1000 years beside Germany, who managed to assimilate almost all westerns Slavic tribes, Germany swallowed Silesians, Pomeranians, Sorbs or Plebians.. who are all part of Lechickie Slavic Tribes (Polish). in 1900 Poznan was 65% German, in 1944 Warsaw was gone. I do not believe in historical accidents.

  • @arka67

    The Commonwealth (Rzeczpospolita Obojga Narodów) lasted only fraction of the millennium you are talking about. During its time, it was (for a while) THE MOST powerful (on all grounds, economical, military, educational...) country in Europe. 

    Sweden flood might not have happened, if not king elector fighting to regain his crown in Sweden ;P But it is a speculation, what's done, is done.

  • @gegrenas

    Stop quoting mistranslated info from en wiki. It was not a commonwealth, but "Abiejų tautų respublika", or "Rzeczpospolita Obojga Narodów" = *Republic* of both nations, made of Kingdom of Poland and Principality of Lithuania combined, with nobles democracy and *ONE* elective king (so, *not* 2 independent nations), covering territories of at least another 5 todays countries (990 000 km²).

    Also, polish had 5x higher tax income and twice the population of the Principality of Lithuania.

  • @gegrenas

    Well, Polish-Lithuanian Union pretty much always existed, however from 1569 I would say that NEITHER Poland or Lithuania existed, so Poland wasn't part of Lithuania, or Lithuania part of Poland.

    Poland was the part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

    Lithuania was the part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

    It's a shame we gave that much freedom to the nobility. Instead of constitution we should just make absolute monarchy and 1 strong leader, keeping everything organized.

  • @gegrenas of corse, Lithuania was never part of Poland, because there were two states in the Union, the Crown and The Grand Duchy, but after 1569 (Union of Lublin) there was just one state The Commonwealth of Both Nations, and by the law that was one country . It was not Poland, it was not Lithuania, it was Both :) and It was a kind of Republic, some people call it The Old Republic, cause The King was chosen by free elections, not free for everyone, just nobles, but still kind of free.
