  • it was actually about 10% of the population. The Commonwealth had more nobles and a greater proportion of the population than any other European nation.

    For its time, it was astounding and there were ways to be born poor and degenerate yet end up a noble.

    Ennoblement was at least, somewhat common and was possible if, for example, exemplary service on behalf of the Commonwealth (the State) was done.

    Military victories, scientific achievements and such.

  • Oh btw, Forgt to write that he is wrong about oe thing, 10% of the population was Szlachta (Noblemen).

see all

  • @cugierkoteczka this video was uploaded here for educational reasons, not for some duchebag lowlifes like yourselves to have nonsense argument, enjoy the video and stop with the bullshit

  • @FreedomLiberty21

    Yes, it was 10% of the Polish population who were gentry, not just 2%. It's strange Norman Davies who is an expert on the Polish history, whose wife is Polish and he himself speaks Polish very well, could have made such a mistake!
