What would a Polish dominated eastern Europe look like today?

We should be arguing over the effects this would have on central europe
For example
>no purssia
>no partion of poland
This has huge effects

byzantine rite catholic russia

It would still be colonized by G*rmany

Advanced and civilized Slavic superstate.
Germans were irrelevant during that time.

>Germans were irrelevant during that time.
What time?

glorious

1500-1600. There was no unified German state and they were busy beating each other to death for petty things.

Not busy enough to stop settling further east for even a moment.

Germans in PLC knew their place.

>What would a Polish dominated eastern Europe look like today?
If Poland would dominate Eastern Europe it would be Easternized. Probably not to Russia levels, but it would gain a lot of Eastern traits.
So I guess a more liberal state resembling a bit Eastern Poland and Belarus.
Probably would resemble somewhat Austro-Hungary in that it would have quite interesting culture, charming cites but rather inefficient administration and army that would be hesistant to fight for the state(with exception of Poles and Cossacks perhaps)

Heaven on earth for slavs.
Seeing that poles were somewhat more westernized and loved ideas of enlightenment, maybe serfdom and all other cancer would be abolished earlier.

>a shithole would MAGICALLY stop being a shithole if only it had a different government!
That's not how it works.

>no Sweden
Y

>Y instead of why
Back to 9gag you nigger

>no Sweden
Why

>these people have a different culture and ideas and will do things differently
>life will still be shit cause i said so :^)

>t. retard slavphobic

Because fuck swedes and their beta ways.

It would look like pic related.

I'm a Slav.

Russia being a shithole is the result of their geographical position, it has absolutely nothing to do with irrelevant shit like serfdom and enlightement.

Polacks were more Western than Western world of that time.

You're a pole? why are you opposed to Poland conquering Russia?

Because of this
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deluge_(history)

No, I'm not a Pole.

It would basically becoma a mega superstate.
Russia would have acces to important see trade and get westernized earlier, of course if poles treat russian territory with proper care.
Poland would have much more manpower +cossack hetmans.
This state wouldn't need to be afraid of eastern threats and only worry about Ottomans from south, Messy HRE shit and importantly Swedes from north.
But more importantly, poles would undoubtedly become more russofied/westernized hybrid and maybe try to move capital farther away from near rivals.

But it could also become a paper tiger, if poles try to centralise in Poland instead of going further to east for Scorched earth and Distance advantage.
IRL Swedes were able to easily occupy polish lands and take cities like Warsaw with ease.

Russians were Polishboos back the. Their elites would polonize themselves.

Yes, the famous polishboos Minin and Pozharsky for example.

Did you forget who invited Polacks to rule them?

Did you forget the Polacks were kicked out by patriotic Russian nobility which you claimed were Polishboos?

It would be shit. As much as some here hate it, Russia succeeded because it was a centralized absolute monarchy and Poland failed because of it's retarded system.
If Poles conquered Russia, such a system would prevail in Russia, and boyars would wreck the state.
Also, Russian identity is tied with Orthodoxy. There's no way Russians abandon it.

Bump

>inb4 we get the red plague from karl marx first instead of the russians

>It's a timeline where we might see a Polish Constantinople
w e w

You watched that retarded video of a guy that has no clue. He assumes Napoleon becomes a thing and has an actual chance against PLCRus.

>IRL Swedes were able to easily occupy polish lands and take cities like Warsaw with ease.

Let's examine this statement:
>Be Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
>Just be done with a huge war with the Ottomans
>Cossack chimp out causes you to enter bloody civil war, ravaging your lands and population
>Cossacks in their infinite wisdom invite the Russian Tsar to take them over
>War with the Russians start
>Further destruction
>Beta Swedes decide now it's the time to attack
>Some Lithuanian magnate goes traitor and sides with the swedes, alongside the nobles in the western-most part of the country, which never saw war since the Teutonic Order.
>Even Russians see that they cannot give honorless Sven any chances and make truce with the Commonwealth
>Swedes do more damage to Poland than World War 2 did
>When Poles see Swedes are just an equivalent of basketball americans they chimp out en masse and kick Swedes out, right after the tolerant and diverse Norseman tries to burn down and loot the holiest place in all of Poland
>War with Sweden done, war with Russia resumes
>Fastforward to modern day
>Roughly 20%-30% of all exhibits in Swedish museums are actually what they stole in Poland

literally the only thing that has to be avoided in order to create working state is Memesejm, replacing it with Russian-tier autocracy was a thing that could save irl Commonwealth

>short speech is satanic
K
Yeah but any ‘Greater’ country has to have all the lands their monarchs ever claimed, I mean come on

It would collapse on itself sooner or latter. The rise of nationalism would tear it apart. People are unified by blood, not by abstract ideas and there would be a lot of different peoples living in this hypothetical Polish-Lithuanian-Russian Commonwealth. In the end Lithuania and parts of Ruthenia would be fully polonised. Everything else would secede.

Poles and Russians are the same people.

This.

Genetically that maybe so, but culturally they are very different. 500 years ago that divide would have been smaller, but still Poles being Catholics and Russians being Orthodox would cause problems in the eventual union.

United Slavs are a nightmare for Germans.

It would be somewhat difficult to polonize russians due to orthodox christianity. Russian nobles were very positive with becoming part of the royal union, if they were allowed to retain Orthodoxy as main religion in their country.
If Sigismund calmed his autism and allowed religious tolerance much earlier especially to russians, Moscow would become part of the Commonwealth and there would be millions of patriotic orthodox poles running in east.
This did work with Galician ruthenians and some eventually did convert to catholicism.

Bumo

Poland had more advanced parlamentarism than Western Europe
This level of parlamentarism was not achieved in Europe until 19th century

And due to jewish influence, Polish cities and Polish citizens were generally cleaner than London or your average Brit

There were kicked out because polish king acted like a complete retard

His mistake changed the course of history, forever

>Poland had more advanced parlamentarism than Western Europe
>This level of parlamentarism was not achieved in Europe until 19th century
No one else ever managed to create a law that allows ONE member of parliment to cancel voting even if is literally everyone else in favour of thing they vote for.
>And due to jewish influence, Polish cities and Polish citizens were generally cleaner than London or your average Brit
shut up kike, Jews lived in Africa-tier ghettos

With liberum veto this entity would still be fucked hard by remaining neighbours. Siberia would be colonised by British Muscovy company. Religious difference would still be annoing thing as Moscovite Russians would never accept unia. Though it must be noted that religion was responsible for the very existence of separate Poland and Russia. Were the religion single there most likely be single nation as before Christianity there were most likely was linguistic and cultural continuum between Poles and Russians.

>There's no way Russians abandon it.
Orthodox are catholics with few difference.
God...

>Seeing that poles were somewhat more westernized and loved ideas of enlightenment, maybe serfdom and all other cancer would be abolished earlier.

Lolwut? They were so far up their own ass with their "schlachta" pseudoaristocratic way of thinking and treating the bydlo, in the end the whole rest of the Slavic world would cause Wolyn massacre-tier butchering to them.
Ukrainians are nigs, sure, but their spastics were the result of "pacification" operations by polaks.

Elites would suck chinese dicks, if it was rad and fashionable.
Elites were just rusophobic.

Serfdom in Poland wasn't even as harsh as the one in HRE.

>Orthodox are catholics with few difference.
Yeah no. Differences are big enough to slaughter each other mercilessly.

He also completely ignored how Slavic nationalism would effect the country.

Prussia could still come about just because Poland gave away the duchy to Brandenburg.

Real life isn't EUIV

Sigismund couldn't just have blocked Brandenburg's right to inheritance instead of granting it?

>Differences are big enough to slaughter each other mercilessly.
That's not exactly saying much user.

>Germany was irrelevant in the 1500-1600s
And yet the reformation, which completely reshaped politics and culture started in Germany.

Whats up with this Polish superiority complex on this board?

Not agreeing with German and Russian propaganda doesn't mean superiority complex. An average Polack will still tell you that Poland is a shithole, They just don't like historical lies.

That’s every pole, they gave the biggest egos with the smallest brain

That is actually exactly how it works.
