My favorite European country. First time i visited by myself, but I liked it so much that I brought my family and visited again. The people had been through a lot of ups and downs over the centuries, but they are always so resilient. I have a lot of admiration and respect toward Poland, because as a Taiwanese, I think a lot of us can resonate with enduring hardships and prospering through difficulties.
im polish and i also feel like we can resonate with you. Not just taiwan but also korea because they were also in a similar situation to us in history by being inbetween two major powers (china and japan)
i feel like korea and taiwan are our distant brothers
and the Teutons were naively GIVEN land by Boleslaw to protect Christians... ironic that the Prussians spent centuries genociding Poland after
Why? It has been owned more times than the Balkans has been to war. L country
@@BonShula Every European country has been conquered at some point except... England.
@@Potent_Techmologyeven England has been conquered,just not in recent history
Poland has a beautiful and rich history. I really hope I could visit one day. Love from your flag twin, Indonesia!! Poland is not yet lost!

4:40 - It's because in Poland's laws there's no distinction between queen consort and queen regnant, queen's always wife of king. That's why she was named a king.
Would that make her husband the queen?
@MasterJunus that's actually funny, because yes. Jogaila was iure uxoris king of Poland, which means king by right of his wife :D
I thought they were just campaigning to make it into an edition of Sid Meyer's Civilization (JK)
@@MasterJunus Yes
There are SO MUCH similarities tween Czechia and Poland. Anyway - you were first to have such feminist achievement!
Poland can into space!
Putting memes aside POLSA is major member of EAS. It also has own missile program.
@@TheRezro So they can into space :)
Yes ! The moon belongs to Poland. It has a Polish name !

NO TRESPASSING !

KEEP OFF !
Poland did into space already.
The Polish eagle has a crown on the coat of arms, the non-crown version is from the polish peoples republic and it was a symbol of russian influence over Poland. Please note that. (I am talking about the beggining of the video). Also, the police in polish peoples republic (22:42) was called ,,milicja,, not policja. Policja is the recent one :) A Pole was in space too.
Policja zachowuje sie jak milicja dalej.
Poland is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to. I was honored to walk through Warsaw and krakow. Interestingly I was given the opportunity to visit the grounds of the auschwitz camp. A truly singular experience and something I recommend every person do once in their life. Poland left me humbled and grateful
The legend returns with an entertaining history lesson!
I only wish you had mentioned the forced resettlements of Poles deep into Syberia by the Soviets right after its invasion of Poland. Many died during the weeks long trip in train cattle cars, some made their way back years later, some ended up in Kazachstan even until now. Perhaps a dedicated video?
he literally said "millions of POW sent to gulags"
@@vounsky POW yes. But pstrzel is talking about regular civilians, not prisoners of war
I think the reason Jadwiga was crowned King may be that in Poland the term for a Queen (PL: Królowa) is derived from the word for King (PL: Król) by addition of the suffix "-owa", which usually is used to make a term to address the wife of someone; e.g a General's (PL: Generał) wife in polish would be a concatenation of "Generał", and "owa" (PL: Generałowa), or the wife of a man with the surname "Fox" (PL: Lis) would analogically be "Lis"+"owa" (Lisowa), therefore the term "Królowa" was probably at first used to refer to the wife of a king, rather than a female monarch. Given that it was her, who was to rule, and not her husband, once she got one, she was crowned a King, and not a Queen.
Poland has a rich fascinating history of being a super power.
Its unfortunate that most of academia only teach about Poland being partitioned and wiped off the map.
Poland has a long and interesting history. Great compilation.
What a rare gem, thank you! My ancestors were Polish, and I'm always trying to understand their cultural context.
I will visit soon 🇵🇱 I love Poland from the UK. Our brothers in arms 👍
Just in time for bed, thank you man for all the hard work and adorable animation ❤
Thanks for another wonderful video! Can't wait for the next! Love form Brazil!
Amazing as always mate.
My polish brothers
Thanks kind stranger❤
How much hostility is there from India towards Poland on Indian channels when they found out that Poland will have nuclear warheads but when Putin sent the warheads to Belarus they were somehow silent xdddddd
@@talusn9405 who cares what india thinks XD
Yasss love it every time I see an upload from you ✨🙌
First of all, it's a pity you completely skipped the rozbicie dzielnicowe part of Polish history (regionalization or fragmentation of Poland) in the 12th and 14th century. It's a very interesting period but very complicated.
About King Jadwiga, she was named King because the nobility wanted a ruler who would live in Poland and would not be dependent on anyone, and "Królowa" or "Królewna" (translated as 'Queen') meant a king's wife. Btw, according to some reliable sources, she loved the Habsburg prince and really despised the barbarian Jagiello.
I think it should be also emphasized that Poland's decline and subsequent partitions in the 17-18th century were because of Polish nobility. In short, Polish nobility made this law that every new reform in order to be effective should meet everyone's consent - demokracja szlachecka. At this point, Polish kings had very little to say as opposed to the Western European absolute monarchies. Polish neighbors took advantage of her and simply bribed Polish nobility to veto all significant reforms what in turn caused political and economical stalemate. When the last Polish king finally made reforms and the constitution was signed (the 2nd constition in the history of the world - the 1st was drafted by the Americans after the revolutionary war) it was already too late.
After WWI when Poland finally regained independence she had ambitions to become once again the regional power, but, to be honest, the country was very weak after over one hundred years of being partitioned and exploited by its neighbors. It was a miracle when Poland stopped the Red Army at the battle of Warsaw, huge victory. But then Poland was completely not ready for WW2, yet it stood and fought. This is a very sad part of our history, WW2 is covered thoroughly in history classes. Polish people still remember what the Germans and Russians did during WW2. It's very hard to forget and to forgive.
I remember I read somewhere but I don't know if that's true, but after WW2 Polish general Witold Urbanowicz, who fought in the Battle of Britain, said: "You (the British) won the war, we (the Polish) lost." It sums up giving up Poland and the Eastern Europe to Stalin. Thanks, the Allies.
The loss of Poland's unique ethnic diversity is an absolute tragedy. Thank you for sharing this.
“I dont like other races and cultures”
Still waiting for the day that Lithuania gets covered. It comes up all the time (even in this video) but has yet to get its side covered
Poland is called Lenkija in Lithuanian, meaning people of fields. but it's also closer to Lech's name as well I guess.
We have actually other unique names for countries like Germany being called Vokietija, which is still not clear how it originated.
Also could you explain how we ruled ruthenia from Livonia, as Livonia is modern day territory and country of Latvia, Lithuania was ruled from Kernave and Trakai until Vilnius was established by King Mindaugas
As well for the Commonwealth it was not a single entity as the union of Mielnik was never adopted and that was a very important distinction that was passed by Alexander Jagielio enshiring our seperation and rights as an equal partner in our joint republic as well its right to issue it's own lawns and rule, it's actual name was Reczpospolita Obojga Narodow or Abieju Tautu Respublika otherwise reffered as ATR (modern Lithuanian name for it) meaning "Republic of Both Nations". It had seperate armies, treasuries, laws and rights (Lithuania had adopted the Statutes of Lithuania in 1529, 1566, and 1588 giving rights and responsibilities to both nobles and the common people). i love your videos and been following for many years, but I am not sure how you made these statements without confirming and crosschecking sources. Late into demise you could say it became closer to a single entity but that was when foreign powers had more sway on internal politics of our countries.
It's incredibly sad to see that our countries history is so readily ignored as a footnote by what I can only assume is lazy research in this case, not just by you but by general historical sentiment in the western educational system, as the history of the both countries strife and achievement, rivarly and cooperation, betrayal and unity amongst ourselves is an incredible story, it's a shame it barely ever comes to the surface due to convenience to skip over any depth. You cannot tell the story of the commonwealth without looking at both sides. It's like looking at Austria-Hungary and pretending Hungarians just appeared after ww1.
And lastly Liberum veto was not complicated, it was incredibly straigforward and due to that incredibly abusable. If 1 person called liberum veto on a vote it would have to be scrapped, meaning you need to bribe 1 noble to tie up the hands of the whole parlament. The complicated part was the actual elective monarchy and parlament as the king would call session (usually to ask for raising taxes for money for some personal war) or could choose to just never call a session leaving him to semi absolutist rule, as years passed each elected monarch had to sign ever more decentralizing "contracts" with the nobility to be elected which in time left the position more ceremonial than executive, asides that right to call parlament.
The more I learn about Polish history, the cooler they seem
The prophecy was right: the legend has returned!!!
Great video!
Greetings from Poland ❤🇵🇱 I’m proud of being Polish and I love my country. Our history is soooo mesmerising and beautiful ❤ Europa is my home 🇪🇺💗
Love Poland from iran 🟩🦁🟥❤️🇵🇱
Tanks, the same for You :) I would like to visit Iran in the future.
@@PawelIperski i would like to speak polish language which applications do you recommend to speak it? Is Duolingo good for study it?
All the best to Persian European friends!
@@bedebezanim558 Wow, you want learn polish? Good luck for you! :D I think duolingo is good for start. In CZcams there're plenty of chanells and vids about polish languages for foreginers - go check them out. Easy Polish is one of them. And a pro-tip - the first first thing you should learn is polish aphabet. We almost read exactly like we write if you decode polish alphabet first. HowToPolish chanell made genial video about it.
Much love from Poland to you.❤ Have fun.
@@bedebezanim558 Hi, I don't know. I am Polish. But I try to check it for you. :)
Poland Forever!
Thanks for the great video and kudos for the pronounciation!
Hermaszewski did "can into space". In 1978.
Growing up in poland my mum used to read the 3 brothers Child book and I loved it
Perfect!
Poland reborned as phoenix from the ash!
great video 🇵🇱
Mexico really took the Polish eagle story smh
A natinon betrayed by everyone again and again lives to fight another day and lead by example.
Loving your videos, but you're not gonna cultivate a viewer-base without a regular upload schedule. I really don't want this channel to disappear in a year, it's so good! please keep uploading
He has reuploaded this video like twice, now. I remember seeing this video years ago.
@@daikolirae155 He has one of the better animation styles on history YT, i swear if he uploaded regularly and tried narrating a bit better he'd blow up
Nice!
If I were to immigrate from the United States to any country in Europe, I would happily choose Poland 🇵🇱
Awesome! Thank you!
I love Poland
A very entertaining and good video. Can you please make a video about Armenian history?
Actually blitzkrieg was a Napoleon strategy pack light calvary first infantry finish them off. Napoleon doesn't get enough credit from blitzkrieg only because aircraft and tanks didn't exist back then but replace cannons with aircraft and calvary with tanks and what Napoleon did was straight up blitzkrieg.
You and Oversimplified inspired me to make my own history series for my channel I’m starting with Norway and can you please finish the Denmark video?
Fun fact: Poland literally blackmailed the US to join NATO they threatened to ask the polish minority in the US to vote for the opposition candidate in the US election which was enough for the sitting president to accept their entrance into NATO
Poland did into space, granted under the label of USSR but still. Mirosław Hermaszewski.
Good video.
2:38 The banner says "The resorer"
Poland Stronk!
23:33 "wind of change" as the scorpions sang 🧡
I still love that the pre-war government in exile returned to Poland after the end of the Cold War.
If only Poland had competent leaders, haven’t seen that since Sikorski in 40s
LETS GOOOO POLAND MENTIONED
Do Romania next pls
"Soviets escaped similar trials (Nuremberg) for their own war crimes since they joined Allies in the late stages of the war". So when were those late stages in '44 or maybe '45?
Hey Suibhne, I know you probably won't read this but is it possible to make a video about countries in Southeast Asia? We have a lot of stories there.
22:40 in these times it was milicja, not policja.
Nice Scorpions reference when talking about 1989
Funny fact is that a faction of younger members of Polish communist party founded SLD or "the alliance of democratic left", which not only used to be very popular and even won elections back then, since its foundation it was one of the most liberal and anti-authoritarian parties in Poland for some reason. Just weird to know the contrast between this and their previous occupations.
To quote the crew of the Polish destroyer Piorun: JESTEM POLAKIEM! JESTEM POLAKIEM! JESTEM POLAKIEM!
Thanks 😊
Lets go
Yay my country
Woo! New vid!! 🎉
@ 16' 47" _ Germans invaded from North, [OstpruBen], + West + South,[ Slovakia].
Polish history be like:
Kurwa!
It come from: Curvus
Nice
When are we getting that 2-hour long history of the United States of America?
Braves Poles
What i always asked myself - what is up with the lower Part of the Figures. They obviously have no arms, so what is the central Part? Is it a big belly? A massive crotch? one very thick leg and a small one? Im so confused
Can we do Czech next ❤
The blitzkrieg wasnt a new form of war. Its just a name the US french and UK gave for woefully under estimating the germans movements through the ardennes
Casimir I "The resorer"
Wow the Lithuanian slice of that demographic pie chart on the 2nd Polish Republic was waaaaay smaller than I'd have guessed.
Love it!
Wow
Goat back
Wasn’t Operation Unthinkable proposed directly after WW2? Pre-Soviet Nuke?
Yes, and it was denied by Roosevelt because he was fooled by Stalin and his puppets in US goverment, plus it would be a hard sell to make americans and brits go to war against someone they called "allies" just before. Not because of nukes.
Soviets break agreements made with Allies during WW2. As such there risk of continuation of war.
Yooooooooooooo Poland yeeeeeah
🎉
Yeah but when they married Vladislav was like 40-50years old and Jadviga was around 14. History❤ and there are some accounts that claim she accualy loved duke of Austria but she had little of a say in a matter. But in her later reign there are proofs that she did love her husbond and Vladislav respected her rule over Poland and didn't intrude
Polska 🇵🇱
jestem polakiem to moja ojcyzna
Poland can into space - best pointa ever 😎
nice
You should have invest in Eastern Poland!
Wait, Kiev’ Rus was founded by Vikings?! Right?
🇺🇸
6:27 'the Prussian faith would later be inherited by the Duke from Brandenburg.' what is meant with _Prussian faith_ ? nitpicking here: Brandenburg wasn't a dukedom. the elector of Brandenburg was the head of a margraviate.
Its my terrible audio from 5 years ago and my equally terrible pronunciation of the word 'fief'. You're also right that the head of Brandenburg was a Margrave not a Duke, but they gained the title when they inherited Prussia. It wasn't overly clear in my script unfortunately
@@Suibhne oh, that explains the strange accent for an 'Australian'. regarding the 'dukedom': the ruler of Brandenburg inherited the dukedom of Prussia and became duke of Prussia but not duke of Brandenburg. Brandenburg remained a margraviate with a vote to elect the emperor until the abolition of the HRE in 1806. by then, the ruler of Brandenburg-Prussia (unofficially) had made themself into king *in* Prussia by 1701 (well, he signed a 'Crown Treaty' with the emperor). when Frederick II annexed the rest of royal Prussia in the 1st partition of Poland he adopted the title king *of* Prussia in 1772. regardless of all the king titles, the head of Hohenzollern and king in/of Prussia remained the margrave of Brandenburg. Brandenburg never turned into a dukedom.
@@Suibhne I must point out irony of fact that Germany was technically rouge vessel of Poland.
❤️🇵🇱🍀💪🏻
Poland destroyed loads of tanks because their tanks where better as they had the Matilda and polish tanks.
Can you do history of Bulgaria?
Sorry for stating the elephant in the room but….WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET SOMTHING NEW. Cough. No pressure
AFTER Vienna of Congress's was formed Kingdom of Poland
Can you do one on colombia?
wait this is just previous videos combined. you should make that more clear.
The "compilation" at the end of the title suggests that it is a... compilation of previous videos
@@HSCrimson no doubt! Updated would be a better word
Damn Germany lost alot of land
🇵🇱
Polands future is in space. With exploration, colonization and imperialism and grabbing the oil reserves from Marsians and converting them to christianity while collecting new crops from the new world.
Moon always did belong to Poland. As Twardowski claimed it.
It be worth knowing Poland, during the interwar period (1918-1939), had in the possession Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania.
It was a major incident and aspect of Lithuanian history, so it was weird that it was left out
Which was a city with general polish citizen majority. Even today, when I'm in Lithuania I hear just polish language in the road to Vilnius. 😅
@@nnvist Yes, but do consider the fact the city underwent heavy polonization. For further reading, I advise to look into "Population displacement in Lithuania in the twentieth century : experiences, identities and legacies " by Tomas Balkelis & Violeta Davoliūtė.
