You just have no idea how hard and how long we have lobbied for any American soldiers to come over here, with little effect until just now. Including when we tried to seize on the missile defense initiative and it didn't really work out.
So you just don't much about the region and the history of it, okay. Actually that's perfectly understandable. The Polish-Ukrainian history is very long and complicated, often also extremely bloody and tragic. Check out the Polish films "With Fire and Sword" and "Wołyń" (NOT the export version "Hatred", it was made misleading and incomprehensible while trying to be shortened and simplified for an American audience, also it's censored) if you want.
The German Serbs are also known as Sorbs (and as Serbo-Łużyczanie in Poland). Even Berlin itself used to be Slavic prior to the original Drag nach Osten (the great turn to the east following the successful Germanic conquest of the Roman Empire).
I don't think Poland is doing intelligent things, to be honest. Calling for a no fly zone is madness. And having American troops on your territory gives them leverage to force you accept all sorts of nonsense, like BLM. I'd rather keep them out.
Depends. If by 'not much', you mean more than 99% of all non-Poles, that would be accurate.
I'd rather have a book. At least, if it about learning history.
Now that is something that I didn't know. I was aware that the Duchy of Prussia was Slavic, but Brandenburg and Berlin itself? The strange thing is... wasn't modern Poland the home of the Goths in ancient times? So it went from being Germanic, to being Slavic, to being Germanic, to being Slavic again.
Also Prussia was Baltic (Prussian).
Goths, (proto) Celts, etc. Almost all the peoples of Europe have moved west from the east in waves through the ancient era (and the prehistory). Only some like the Basques or the Chechens are actually indigineous to their areas for thousands of years.
As for the "brothers" Serbs, seems the Croats remember this bullshit: https://twitter.com/visegrad24/status/1500179892511592453
