I thought you treat it as a core territory now

2018-03-27 15:17:14 UTC  

sort of

2018-03-27 15:17:24 UTC  

before ww2/ww1 people didnt have same concept of nationality/ethnicity

2018-03-27 15:17:26 UTC  

so whats the most Lithuanian city 🤔

2018-03-27 15:17:29 UTC  

Kaunas ?

2018-03-27 15:17:34 UTC  

being catholic meant you're polish most of the time

2018-03-27 15:17:42 UTC  

probably idk

2018-03-27 15:17:44 UTC  

aren't Lithuanians catholic

2018-03-27 15:17:53 UTC  

they are but we werent before the poles came

2018-03-27 15:18:00 UTC  

we didnt even have last names before that

2018-03-27 15:18:05 UTC  

as we had no christian marriages

2018-03-27 15:18:11 UTC  

the last pagan nation

2018-03-27 15:18:13 UTC  

hence why so many last names are of Polish origin

2018-03-27 15:18:13 UTC  

We treat Slovakia as ours <:brainlet:395711607554048000>

2018-03-27 15:18:14 UTC  

in yurop

2018-03-27 15:18:30 UTC  

and to marry you basically had to be christian and that basically meant speaking Polish

2018-03-27 15:18:37 UTC  

ov vey its anudah TRIANON

2018-03-27 15:18:40 UTC  

in other words getting polonized

2018-03-27 15:18:53 UTC  

uh I've heard like

2018-03-27 15:19:07 UTC  

Lithuanians say that Poles were forcibly polonising Lithuania 🤔

2018-03-27 15:19:28 UTC  

but afaik the Lithuanian nobles were polonising them voluntarily

2018-03-27 15:19:31 UTC  

it's hard to imagine the process of polonization as someone just standing there and beating you with belt until you become Polish

2018-03-27 15:19:34 UTC  

*themselves

2018-03-27 15:19:37 UTC  

because it was more convenient

2018-03-27 15:19:37 UTC  

it's a long process

2018-03-27 15:19:50 UTC  

```they are but we werent before the poles came```

2018-03-27 15:19:52 UTC  

it was voluntary and not voluntary at same time

2018-03-27 15:19:59 UTC  

voluntary as it was more convenient but

2018-03-27 15:20:00 UTC  

stahp Poles were never oppressive!!

2018-03-27 15:20:02 UTC  

we no russians!

2018-03-27 15:20:07 UTC  

non voluntary as in we didnt really have other choice

2018-03-27 15:20:16 UTC  

*except towards ukropiteks maybe*

2018-03-27 15:20:21 UTC  

if you compare it with today;s populations

2018-03-27 15:20:23 UTC  

>non voluntary as in we didnt really have other choice

2018-03-27 15:20:25 UTC  

you had a choice

2018-03-27 15:20:27 UTC  

stay lithuanian

2018-03-27 15:20:28 UTC  

we have about 3 million people

2018-03-27 15:20:29 UTC  

🤔

2018-03-27 15:20:35 UTC  

and Poles have ~38 million people

2018-03-27 15:20:50 UTC  

if these countries merge obviously there will be huge cultural influence

2018-03-27 15:20:57 UTC  

so was during those times
