Lithuania and Poland Were Once Like Brothers.. (Exploring Kaunas) 

.. And we love 🇱🇹🇱🇻 Latvia.

Lol yes we love latvia too 💓

Lithuanians are like neighbours rights know:)

They were cousins not brothers

Good vibe, not too big of a city. Greetings to you!

But not so bad under the Germans during WW2? Nazi collaboration among all the nations the Nazis occupied during WW2 participated in the Holocaust and the removal of non-Jews such as teachers, intellectuals and others to Nazi labor camps and worse. Lithuania has yet to acknowledge its complicity with the Holocaust. Nearly 95 percent of Lithuania’s 250,000 Jews were killed during the conflict. In the Netherlands hundreds of thousands of Dutch Nazi collaborators were prosecuted for collaboration or treason and 127 of these were sentenced to death but only 16 were executed. Of course there were those who risked their lives as partisans and others who saved many from Nazi ideology and insanity. If we're going to give history lessons lets make sure its a full accounting not just some dribble written by aristocrats.

As the French would say in 1842: "...histoire est juste peut-être, mais qu’on ne l’oublie pas, elle a été écrite par les vainqueurs", in English, "...history is right perhaps, but let us not forget, it was written by the victors”).

@@bcinspectorman Lmao. Did you just blame a country for things which were done by another country? Lithuania was occupied by Germany as you wrote, therefore - they could not do anything to oppose them on mass scale because they were *occupied*. Not mentioning that Vilnius(I may be wrong with the city) was called the second Jerusalem by jews before ww2. Jews came to live on bigger scale in Lithuania during middle ages, when The Grand Duch of Lithuania wrote letter to people in Europe to come work there(he stated that religion, sex etc... Did not matter and everyone was accepted to come). We were occupied by both devils(I am not religious just in case), but to us - the soviets were a lot worse(not mentioning post ww2) and so a part of partizans helped them fight against soviets which occupied them before. There were all kinds of partizans - communists(soviets were that bad that even they joined), democrats, monarchists, fashists....But they all united to fight against common enemy - USSRS. So as you can see - they had to choose a side and fight or just vanish and die without a single fucking russian dying. Long story short - learn basic history about the country you're gonna write shit about. P.S No one wrote that Lithuanians liked to be occupied by Germans nor it was good to live under their rule

Sadly, I doubt it's mutual.

@@aleksanderkorecki7887 Lithuania is a tiny country and you need to understand their phobias. Remember that they were under Russian occupation for a long time, and this leaves traces.

@Assismus Whatever you take, take half and change the doctor because the current one is cheating on you.

@Assismus Głupie ruskie trolle są wszędzie. Pisz Wania pisz, autor ci podziękuje bo robisz mu zasięgi. Niech chłop też coś z tego ma. 😂😂😂😂

@@aleksanderkorecki7887 why do you think that? Personally, I have huge respect for Poland people, your hospitality and support (both military and humanitarian) for Ukrainian people is heroic. And I wish you to become the top military and economic power in EU, it would be much safer. Greetings from Lithuania.

Great to hear, obrigado

Cheers, ever going back you think?

@@iPedroMota well, there is no place like home ,so hopefully one day I can return. But if you are just working a regular low level job then it can be quite hard to have a comfortable life there . A common expression that I have heard from Lithuanians is "nesisuksi , negyvensi" which basically translates to " if you wont hustle you wont live" .It doesn't really make sense to go back unless you plan to start some kind of business to provide you with decent income . For example in Ireland where I live now most regular jobs will pay in a week what a similar job in Lithuania would pay in a month... Hopefully Ill get my big business idea some time soon 😅 Enjoy your time there, the country has some beautiful nature spots in the countryside you should definitely visit , be prepared for some rough gravel roads though 😂

Good to hear since it won't be the last one

Excellent Pedro. Thank you.

at current EU beginning countries have studied PL-LT Commonwealth history to see will it’s going to work. no wonder why PL AND LT is Central europe Greetings to Poland UK LT

Great flag, one of my favorites of the flags that I'm familiar with. Also one of the oldest coat of arms I read.

Mooi om te horen, dat was precies de bedoeling

Appreciate it thanks!

Sugoi, arigato!

Comeste os Zeppelins? Foi muito bom. Boas ferias entao, fez me lembrar um pouco de Portugal.

Pretty good Peter, hope you having a good one too. Can't say when again but not for the time being.

Or an argument against so called European nationalism, with all the conquering and occupation of each other lands there must be a great diversity of human DNA in each of the so called countries in Europe.

@@bcinspectorman A: Conquests were not an exclusively European phenomenon.Without them, non of the empires in history would have existed. B: The Human Genome project, which finished in the early noughties, showed that the genetic diversity across all human populations was surprisingly small. In fact, a peer from somebody's region could have a smaller genetic similarity to him than a human from the far side of the world. In short, genetics are bugger all of a subject here.

Massive game, the hours I put into that in my lifetime I don't wish that upon anyone else. First game where i actually read the pdf instruction manual. It was EU2 off one of those Twilight bootleg dvd's so it must have been a vanilla version. Brutally hard to make money, colonization was a lump sump per effort and would often fail. Big learning curve, game mechanics you were unfamiliar with could break your game halfway. Big rewards gamewise though and if my kid would have to waste hours gaming then better on a game like that.

RU-vid's use of commercial advertising within each channel's episodes may be one reason. When they started injected commercial advertising within the content it was brief, 5 seconds, but now it can be much longer, two ads both 15 seconds long at one 'break' and a few more 5 second ones. Those who create channel content are used by RU-vid (Google) to amass huge profits from their work. Then there are viewers whose attention spans get less and less with each new social media platform like Tik Tok.

Hehe quit it. Watch out for those souvenir ladies.

You can learn much more .Just check out Jūratė De Rosales😉,Marija Gimbutas .Also "Getica"by Jordanes,written in 555 year is about our ancestors.

At some point we always want to know where we come from, cheers

Well,DNR of all europians is Anatolian farmers mixed with Yamnaja(Ukraine)and little drop of hunters-gatherers blod.So we all are bit ukrainians😊.

As much as I love life by the sea, something about riding in the steppes felt like 'home'

Let me help you a little bit my friend. Pedro is half Potugees and half of a Dutchy. Something you don't do to a Portugees and absolutly not to a Dutchy is tell him he has TO DO something. Uh hu.... thats a big no no. Maybe nex time you can ask him friendly. Succes Anomaly, have a nice evening.

@@vanDeudekom this attitude needs to be fixed too

@@anomaly5994 Agree, you just pointed out a thing he can improve, nothing else

They're very well depicted in one or few Mount And Blade historic mods. Finding such historic accurate facts in games can make more young people to find out about their history. I'm 100% for such way of teaching (well, one of), because, really, who likes read a boring history fact book.

Of course, more famous than pierogi. Saving Europe from the Ottomans, one of the best if not the best cavalry units in history. Funny you mention it because a few days ago we watched this movie ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZNuNGxHjAIg.html

Very interesting history lesson, AND nice surprise, as SHE appeared again at the end ☺️

It's legal again

@@vaidasspu It isn't over yet. The Issue was referred to the constitutional court of Lithuania, because by allowing Polish names: "huge damage has been done to the Lithuanian statehood and territorial integrity of Lithuania". Haw, very Lithuanian it is. LMAO.

Quite hard to understand what you wrote with bad grammar.

@@artelisltdid put extra comma in the first sentence.

u just shoot to your own foot..poland does not allowed lithuanian language in polish passport for lithuanian minority in poland😅😅😅😅😅

Lithuania is so much better that it has the greatest population decline in the world which already is a tiny country with barely 2,7 mln of inhabitants.

It's wealthier more beautiful said my grandma who was born there ...HOW WOULD I KNOW NEVER BEEN TO EARTHER JUST HEARD LITHUANIA IS CLASSIER

@@pattynellis7347 Naah, Lithuania was a part of Soviet Union for decades so this country located on peripheries of Europe, did not really have a chance to get wealthy 😞 Even worse, a few years ago, Lithuania accepted Euro as its national currency which negatively affected standard of living regular Lithuanians. So when you go to any of supermarkets in neighboring Poland, you will see thousands of Lithuanians doing their shopping there because they can save a few Euros there. But I am sure that there are some classy people living in Lithuania, even though I don't know your definition of "classy". Please pass this message to your grandma and greetings when you get the chance. Cheers!

@Julia Poland Before WW II, ethnic Lithuanians were mostly peasants since Lithuanian elite got polonized through ages of being part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. When you go to Vilnius, and visit old churches, inscriptions there are in Latin or Polish, there is nothing there in Lithuanian unless we talk about XX/XXI centaury. You have to also remember that during WW II , Lithuanians were Nazi collaborators so they were not "classy" during this period.

Lithuania can be compared to one of the polish voivodeship which Poland has 16.

Who said that?
