Nothing wrong with that. My father always said Russia was great! He named me for a Czar.

What's the problem?

@@petertrochanowski3550 Study and learn for yourself.

My father named me for a Russian Czar. He always took me to the Russian Orthodox Church!

@@matthewharhai4039 Then you must be very proud. Not for me!

That is true, my parents were a Bojko's,from Cisna Bieszczady mountain region

My Lemko grandfather came to the U.S about that time. Worked hard here and had a son (my dad) and a daughter. Thank god they were American citizens. Luckily they chose to come back when they were in their teens. My Grandfather wasn't lucky. He was forced from his land by the Polish communists. In other words, they stole his land. They forced him to go to the Ukraine.

Not correct. Almost half a million Ukrainians (including Lemkos) were forcibly deported to Soviet Ukraine between 1944 and 1946. Another 70,000 Lemkos who had remained during the 1944-46 deportation were forcibly deported by the Polish government into previously German occupied Polish territories. Ergo there were TWO forced deportations>

@@catnap387 Correction; In 1947, about 40,000 Lemkos-Rusyns were forcibly relocated to the north, north-west and west of today's Poland. NOT IN 1944-46.

@@catnap387 Correct. Many people who refused deportation did not make it. They were dealt with by other means. I know. My Grandfather and family wound up in Ukraine S.S R. Russophobia still exists.

Peter Trochanowski yes they are

No, They are The pretenders of slavised dacians

How can you state the opposite of what most Lemkos feel. Who gives you the right to tell them they are not Ukrainian. It is quite disturbing!

@@catnap387, Until the winter 1915, there were no barracks in THALERHOF Cocentration Camp. Prisoners slept on the ground in the open-air during rain and frost. According to U.S. Congressman Medill McCormick, prisoners were beaten and tortured. On November 9, 1914 official report of field marshal Schleer said there were 5,700 Carpatho-Rusyns, Lemkos in Thalerhof. In all, 20 thousand people were prisoners of Thalerhof from September 4, 1914 to May 10, 1917. THALERHOF and TEREZIN was an Austro-Hungarian - (first in the civilized world) - Concentration Camps created for the Lemko-Rusyn in 1914 of the Eastern Church (both Orthodox and Greek Catholic). Approximately 20 thousand of Carpatho-Rusyns, Lemkos where intern. Many of them were tortured and executed, included Women and Children. Irony is that ALL of them were innocent of accused treason against Austro-Hungarian Empire by UKRAINIAN SLAVIC brother(s).
