You can exclude Poland from the "West" but lets stop pretending that Poland is together with "Eastern Europe". Poland is one level above the rest of Eastern Europe, it was developing similarly to a country like Spain. It has its university since the Middle Ages and it produced countless humanists, researchers and such. They weren't as popular as Western, but nevertheless they existed and were of polish stock.
They were writing either in polish or in latin. Can anybody from Bohemia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Russia, Serbia etc show me similar people in similar numbers? I mean, come on.

Let’s pretend that you aren’t a bunch of niggers who live on gibs from the EU.
why dont you guys just start calling yourselves middle european

Empires rise and fall. Cultures fade and wither. Civilizations crumble. Civilization rise. Today, I can say with great pleasure that Poland is the new stronghold of European civilization. Poland will carry the torch to greatness. Poland will, for a lack of better words, usher in a new European renaissance like never before seen. Let us all celebrate no matter if Dutch, French, German, British, Swedish or Italian. Poland is the new future of Europe. Cheers, to everyone.
>ok, this is epic >OP confirmed polish retard you don't understand what I meant you retard in a silly round hat. I meant that writing in own national language was a competition about honour and prestige in Europe back in the days, when latin was losing popularity, and I meant that Poland, just like Italy, France, England switched to its own language around the same time, as opposed to Eastern Europe.

Let's also not forget how Poland is not a legitimate country and should just be a part of Sweden
Adam Turner
But if we disassociate Poland from the east, it wouldn't be fair to not do the same to Lithuania, and we can't have that, so no.

>it wouldn't be fair to not do the same to Lithuania Lithuania is a fake country of peasants

Why is Czech republic there? The only Slavic in it comes from you guys. Austria is barely farther west.
Henry Parker
What the fuck are you talking about? Besides poland's innate instinct to suck foreign cock (i.e. Rome) - Eastern Europe was in large not part of Latin influence.
Vernacular was peasant tier form of communication. Only the aristocracy / clergy / and the learned spoke and wrote in Latin (a more refined and indicatively prestigious language). So the fact that, as you say, Poland used their own vernacular to record literature is a sign that your country was one of the fastest declining countries in all of Europe.
pic related I think is a much better representation of your fantasy
mutt from coalburning world capital talking about traitorous whores, lmao

>So the fact that, as you say, Poland used their own vernacular to record literature is a sign that your country was one of the fastest declining countries in all of Europe. Dude, then it means that countries like England, France, Italy, Spain, Germany were declining as well.
Pls explain what you're going on about. Those countries didn't start recording history or widely using their vernacular for a long count of years. Do a google search: France didn't write anything using their vernacular up until the mid 1300s
Owen Kelly
Do you have any of their works in Latin? I can't read polish but I can read Latin at least.
Robert Perry
>and Czech literature is about as old Polish nope. I mean they might have several texts, but not too many, Czechs didn't develop culture in own language
>Pls explain what you're going on about. Those countries didn't start recording history or widely using their vernacular for a long count of years. but they started around 16. century, like Poland. Italy was ahead of everybody because they started in 14. century already I think.
