Parker Parker
Poland wasn't always where it is today, it sorta moved west over time. And the armies that fought against the crusaders were very much baltic.
Jonathan Stewart
You do know Poles converted to Christianity before 1000 AD right?
Oliver James
>what is the "pagan reaction" Prussians or however you cant to call the crusaders were there before Poland became christian, and fought for the land they held.
Nathan Nguyen
But you said they were converting Poles, not Prussians.
Angel Hernandez
They (who we later call the prussians) were indeed converting the people who you call poles. Like I said, there wasn't even a Poland at the time, there were like 10 kings simultaneously.
Alexander Reyes
Am I being trolled? Poles were already Christian since long before the Crusaders arrived, the Crusaders were converting Old Prussians not Poles you dumbass retard fuck.
Lucas White
There was no Poland when the crusaders arrived, if there was it would tell them to fuck off. And the reason there was no Poland was because of the "pagan reaction", basically anti-christian rebellions.

Jeremiah Cook
"Prussian betrayal of Poland in 1655. A duchy created by Poland out of mercy to Teutons' last grand master. Rulers were Polish senators and were given a free rein how to rule their duchy. Later on, Poland propped it up several times, even refusing to kick the Hohenzolern dukes out when their other dominions are occupied by Sweden in the Thirty Years' War.
When Poland got invaded by Sweden, the duke switches sides and joins Sweden laying foundation to the Prussia that so many autists love that much."

>prussia takes polish lands that poland held for millennia >proceed to oppress poles, take away their land, tax them, deny them education, kick some out just because and outright kill them >hundred years of trying to extinguish all that's polish >Friedrich boasts about how wealthy and orderly poland was to his brother while lies to german aristocracy so he doesnt have to share. Those letters still exists. He wrote how he will completely remove poles. >Bismark openly in all european courts call poles dogs and wolfes and vermin to be slaughtered >despite all that at the end of ww1 those lands are still overwhelmingly polish. Becasue of all that shit poles despise germans and hold dearly on polish language for all those years.
>Over 516,000 individual art pieces were taken.[10] The exact number is uncertain as not all art was registered, and much of that documentation was lost as well.[10][12] Assessment of losses began during World War II under the auspices of the Polish government in exile and the Polish Underground State; in 1944, Karol Estreicher published in London the first work on this subject, Cultural Losses of Poland.[10] A 2010 estimate gave a figure of 75% for the percentage of cultural heritage lost by Poland during the war[3] (though that estimate covers both destroyed and lost cultural heritage).[9] The looted art included 11,000 paintings by Polish painters; 2,800 paintings by other European painters; 1,400 sculptures; 75,000 manuscripts; 25,000 maps, 22,000 books printed before 1800 (starodruki); 300,000 graphics, and hundreds of thousands of other items of artistic and historical value.[14] The number of looted or destroyed books is estimated at 1.5 million[14] to as high as 15[9] or 22 million.[10] Even exotic animals were taken from the zoos.[15]

Poland was founded somewhere around 600AD according to chronicles, even Teutonic Knights claimed it's true.
Official date is 966AD aka baptism of Poland, fully working state exists since 800/900s.

Pagan reaction in Poland has nothing to do with Teutonic Knights.
Check the dates, retard.

>fully working state exists since 800/900s Except when it divided into a dozen petty kingdoms.
Colton Morales
Just like majority of European countries?
Germany was a clusterfuck of petty nations for 1000 years.
Alexander Jenkins
It was HRE
Ethan Edwards
And this is why you don't see germans saying they had a working solid state Germany since the 7th century.

The Teutonic Knights were INVITED into the east BY the Poles, who were already Christian and had been for a while. Fuck this stupid board.
Parker Hernandez

Jason Brown
It's true that there was no Poland at the time, there were a bunch of competing Polish principalities. I don't know why you idiots sperg out because of this.
Ian Torres
The Wehrmacht was really the most advanced for it's time army in the past 10 centuries they only lost because the winter of 43' was cold also also because the Italians dragged them into Africa also the Luftwaffe would have been better if there weren't so many supply shortages once they had jets by the way did you know that not all nazis were evil some of them were okay people the holocaust happened but it probably wasn't as severe as people say it was- INHALE
it wouldn't have feasible to use precious fuel and resources doing something that didn't contribute to the war effort did you know that Albert Speer was a really good architect also he didn't know about the holocaust so he's not a bad guy also Hugo Boss designed the uniforms don't they look cool they look so cool dude all the German generals were really smart it's just that Hitler kept making bad decisions if it weren't for him the Wehrmacht totally would have repelled D-Day and captured Moscow and Stalingrad did you know that Hitler didn't want to bomb civilians in London it's just that the British accidentally bombed some civilians in Germany and that made him retaliate also the firebombing of Dresden was way worse also did I mention that the only reason the Germans lost is because of Italy and the winter of 43' being really cold and Hitler not crowning Rommel grand Fuhrer of the Wehrmact and god-emperor of all things INHALE
Anyway, I'm gonna catch you guys later. Let me know if you want to play some Hearts of Iron 3
Angel Parker
You cherry picked only one part of his post First of, all of principalities as a whole were considered as Poland - gens polonica, Regnum Poloniae >when the crusaders arrived They didn't arrive, they were invited >There was no Poland (...), if there was it would tell them to fuck off. Why would they, you don't tell some guys to fuck off immediately after inviting them >And the reason there was no Poland was because of the "pagan reaction", basically anti-christian rebellions. And that's just bullshit
