Thank you, Turkish brothers and sisters ❤️ Poland still remembers that Turkey never accepted partitions.

Polish soul is proud and eternal, you can beat it but you can't destroy it. Ask any Slav nation, we are all brothers and sisters devided by politics, but we are the same! That's so painful to watch I'm sure all countries in the world had their big and small tragedies, but what Poland has been through in just very recent history, is absolutely staggering on so many levels. We obviously read and learn about all this including dates etc at school and it's an important part of our patriotism. We are proud and the fact people kept Poland alive for 123 years despite being ripped off the maps of Europe, they kept their patriotism and love to Poland in underground schools, teaching kids polish language and creating polish poetry even when under occupation it was illegal even under death penalty! You can beat us up but you will never be able to destroy our soul, it's eternal.

I also came here because History Marche recommended it, and I am thankful that they did. I knew about the partitions of Poland but not the political background or the uprisings and military operations. This was a great video that made me want to know more about this part of history. Thank you for making it. You have one more subscriber and I am looking forward to check out your other content 🙂

We can name countless reasons for the decline of power of Poland. In my view the #1 was ominous 45 year long reign of king Zygmunt IIIrd Vasa1587-1632. Despite Poland being at height of territorial gains and power, his sometimes reacherous politics ignited the decline.

@@Lechoslaw8546 I am no expert in this topic but the peace between Stanisław Żółkiewski and Iskender Pasha in Busza could have been a new beginning. Ottomans had allied with Catholic France (Francis I) before and I’m sure the two would find a way to resolve their religious differences for mutual interests. Strong Commonwealth would mean secure balkans for Ottomans so that they could have focused better on Volga river and the north of caspian trade routes. I don’t want to make big estimates but this could even prevent the Russian unification by cutting their main vessel of economy. There would still be inevitable wars between Poland and Ottomans, but without the threat of Muscovy, both would survive and continue to dominate the east of Europe for many centuries.

Żółkiewski was a wonderful man, a farsighted statesman, a warrior, a writer, a wise and immaculate Polish patriot.

​@@Lechoslaw8546 For me it is the Civitas Schinesghe and Piast dynasty that defines Poland. What Bolesław III did by dividing Poland in his death was a big mistake and the breakup of Polish Silesia was an even bigger one. In my humble opinion, Poland should have focused more on its south-western borders. Poland saved European Christian nations not once, but twice (Mongols and Ottomans), and yet, got betrayed by those same Christian nations. I also respect Władysław III a lot. His valorous charge against Sultan Murad II could have reshaped the entire history of the world if it had been successful. It is a shame that in the end Poland got betrayed by his own nobility. It would be so different if the kings and the nobility were more patriotic and unified. What do you think about Józef Piłsudski and the Second Polish Republic. I really wanna learn more about that time of the Polish history. With victory in the Polish-Soviet War, Poland saved Europe for the third time (this time from communism). Only Hungary helped the Polish nation who stopped the soviet bear. If the world had acted justly in that war, Poland may have stopped the beginning of the WWII by having the means to deter and control its neighbours and tens of millions of people might not have been dead. Katyn massacre shocked me the day I learned about it. My father was a high ranking officer in NATO when Smolensk air disaster happened and I can clearly remember the day I got the crash news. I also wanna learn more about your thoughts of 10 April crash and the current situation of Poland in the wake of Ukranian war. Thank you for your reply. If you want to talk more about these stuff you can write your email so i can mail you. Good days.

Outstanding video. Very professional. I knew some of this but not laud out the way you did. Thank you for your work.

Excellent video, very good animations and transitions! keep it up!

I am not sure what happened to my comment from yesterday, but I again want to praise the overall presentation, map topography, and animation style of this video covering Poland's partitions. The map design brings that Renaissance & historical feeling as you highlight the decades of Poland from the 18th to 20th century (excluding a few gaps here & there) The table POV/map topography resembles the video game R.U.S.E with its broad map overlay of the theatre of war to the in-person/on-the-ground tactics. I love it. Not many channels adopt this charcoal-like/almost ancient-medieval feeling when doing the map design, especially with the candle as a light source/symbolism of the sun. Some channels struggle or have tried to adapt to this style of presentation, and I think you nail everything about it. It feels very similar to Flash Point History's presentation style yet still vastly different & unique. A massive shout out to HistoryMarche for the recommendation and for allowing me to sacrifice a comment for the algorithm to this channel. To Henry Stewart History: P.S I meant to respond to your comment, but my original post was somehow lost. Keep up the amazing work and I can’t wait for more videos. - Solid

Giving up on war with Russia was not a mistake, it was for purpose. The last Polish king was a lover of Katherine. She also paid off his debts. He was just an traitor. And that's the true story. He was a king but just by title. In fact what he was doing was weaking Poland.

It is worth mentioning that, since the Great Northern War, the Polish-Lithuanian state had been a prisoner of the Northern system, i.e. the Prussian-Russian alliance, which, under the Potsdam Declaration of 1720, they decided that they would do everything to maintain the weakness of the state, i.e. free elections, military weakness and the liberum veto. It is also worth mentioning that in Saxon times the first plans for reform were made by the powerful Czartoryski family, who wanted to reform the state and increase the number of troops. During the reign of Augustus III, reforms were intended to be carried out at the following Sejm: 1738, 1740, 1744, 1746. August Czartoryski even put forward a plan to increase the number of the army to 276,000 soldiers. But these Sejms were broken up due to a parliamentary crisis, interference from neighbouring states, Prussia and Russia, who did not want to strengthen Poland. As far as the period of Stanisław August is concerned, it should be mentioned that during his reign there was a reform fever. The king was a great reformer who wanted to make Poland a respectable and internationally strong state. The king included his reform programme in: "Historical Anecdotes". When Poniatowski became king he started a currency reform, unified the system of weights and measures, and founded the School of Chivalry, which educated the Polish political elite. From this school came such great men as Tadeusz Kościuszko, Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz, Stanisław Fiszer and Maurycy Hauke. The use of the liberum veto at the Convocation Sejm was restricted in 1764-1767, when the king wanted to introduce customs duties on the border, then in 1767 Prussia and Russia threatened Warsaw with open war. This was a real tragedy for the state - being trapped between two powerful neighbours in the absence of any reaction from other European states who did not want to spoil their relations with St Petersburg. It is worth mentioning the creation of the Commission of National Education, which was one of the first institutions in Europe with the character of a modern ministry of public education. Limited military reforms were also undertaken under Komarzewski. It is also worth mentioning that the main cause of the partitions was not state weakness, as there were plenty of weak states in Europe. Spain was weak, Portugal, later Belgium. But these states survived because other powers cared (In the case of Spain, it was planned to be partitioned in 1697). The main reason for the partition was the international system of compensation and getting along with the powers at the expense of the weaker states and the international situation that emerged after the 7-year war, i.e. Prussia keeping Silesia and looking for a new way of expansion and Austria wanting compensation for Silesia. Russia, on the other hand, wants to punish the King and the Czartoryskis for the reforms introduced in the 1760s and disobedience. The result? The First Partition.

You left out the Duchy of Warsaw under Napoleon. Only few years after last partition Napoleon restored the Duchy of Warsaw, a Polish state in all but name. Napoleon even had Polish troops and named a Polish Prince one of his Marshall’s. Had Napoleon not lost then you likely would have seen a Polish state of some kind. It certainly reversed the partitions of Poland, if only temporarily. I get it doesn’t make for as neat a narrative arc but it’s not correct to frame the partitions as a definitive event. Really this all happened during the crisis of the French Revolution and wasn’t all finalised until the Congress of Vienna.
