    Yes. If only we could concentrate on our similarities and not our differences, people would see that we all had the same origin and came from the same roots. With regards to the Nordic people the similarities are too striking . Aside from the pantheon of Gods which is absolutely similar. As Sverige which people of Sweden call themselves, as that is the god that had given them the birth is the main god of pagan Russians which is called Svarog. And you will find it's most dominant variation as Sve - tovid ( there are many different transcriptions all coming down to the same type of god) of the Baltic and other Slavs which was worshiped until late 10th century . Etc. Not just culturally (too much to mention here), but especially the so called "nordic words" are all over and are deeply engraved in the Russian language as well . Like the word Stock holm are both Russian words , all breg/ bereg (and it's derivatives) are deeply engraved into the Russian language. There are ofcourse regional spelling differences which are natural and you have to recognize them, like Nordic people tend to use "U" instead of "O" , which brings up that famous Rus vs Ros debacle, which actually means the same thing, the same group of people, but pronounced with different regional accents.

    @@korana6308 We could be concentrated on our similarities more, but there has always been a source if evil that concentrated on destruction, specially of eastern peoples, and specially Slavic. That source was Rome, for almost two thousand years. It played crucial (don't want to play with words) role in forming German nation-as a tool of destruction of Slavs, because it couldn't rule over them. But it established it's rule over the "west", that is what is the definition of the "west", not the influence of antique Greek culture. Having that poisonous centre in the middle, with it's criminals, murderers, prostitutes and poiseners as it's main figures there could be nothing else to expect than war and ocean of blood. What happened to Baltic Slavs? Annihilation. How the rest of Slavs were treated every time the opportunity occurred? The same! Russians are not the only Slavs. Serbs lived in Baltic area, they even give the name to Baltic ("blato" =mud), as to the lake Balaton.

    @@korana6308 just one more thing the words, the language, it emerged/mostly developed much southern then Scandinavia or (north) Russia. Of course "u" is preferably used over "o" in the north. It is too cold there, and doing so people exposed themselves to the cold air less. Stock/livestock is simply "stoka" in Serbian, because it almost always stands ("stoji") on it's (four) legs. It is not borrowed word from Germanic/Scandinavian language. "Holm" and Slavic "hum" (earlier "hlm), that means hill, small as over the grave or big as mountain are related. What is original :) ""breg" (Serbian) or "berg" (Germanic/Scandinavian) with the inversion that makes pronunciation easier, or "bereg" (Russian) vocalised with the same purpose - to pronounce easier ?

There are many similarities between Norse and Slavic mythology, but of course also a lot of differences. I do however think the Slavs are very strong and robust peoples who value their culture, family and nations. I respect you.

    Thanks and greetings to America! By the way, Slavic expansion began during the second century AD, and they occupied a large area of eastern Europe between the Vistula and the middle Dnieper. The Slavs slowly expanded in all directions and assimilated the neighboring cultures. They constantly sought an outlet for the population surplus. Partially they acted without violence and the Slavic peoples infiltrated foreign territories very clever by being cooperative. The Slavs became a dominant force and establishing a new socio-political network in the entire area of central and southeastern Europe. According to the historian Paul Barford, "The Spartan and egalitarian Slavic culture clearly had something attractive for great numbers of the European populations living over considerable areas of central Europe", resulting in their assimilation. The special thing about the Slavs was that they did not practice slavery! Byzantine chroniclers noted that Roman prisoners captured by the Slavs could soon become free members of Slavic society if they wished. So Slavs were the only ones who even assimilated Romans and not just captured soldiers but the population of entire conquered territories. According to the 6th-century manual of war "Strategikon" by Byzantine Emperor Maurice the Slavs were a hospitable people and did not keep prisoners indefinitely "but lay down a certain period after which they can decide for themselves if they want to return to their former homelands or to stay amongst the Slavs as free men and friends." The Byzantine scholar Pseudo-Caesarius's wrote that Slavs living by their own law and without the rule of anyone. The Slave were reported to have lived under a democracy for a long time. The 6th-century historian Procopius, who was in contact with Slavic mercenaries, reported, "The Slavic nations, are not governed by one man, but from ancient times have lived in democracy, and consequently everything which involves their welfare, whether for good or for ill, is referred to the people." The 6th-century manual of war Strategikon by Byzantine Emperor Maurice is considered an eyewitness of the Slavs and said that "the Slaves were independent, absolutely refused to be enslaved or governed, least of all in their own land." The Slavs managed to keep up their agriculture (and a rather efficient kind of agriculture, by the standards of the time). There were no nobility and no kings with the greed for more and contempt for peasant's work, as it did with the Germanic Tribes. Thus the Slavic model proved an attractive alternative ... which proved practically indestructible. Slav traditions, language, and culture shaped, or at least influenced, innumerable local and regional communities: a surprising similarity that developed without any central institution to promote it. These regional ethnogeneses inspired by Slavic tradition incorporated considerable remnants of the Roman or Germanic population ready enough to give up ethnic identities that had lost their cohesion. Slavs were so successful in the assimilation of other peoples because they weren't as barbaric as the Germanic tribes or Vikings. Slavs did not practice slavery and they didn't maraud like the Germanic vandals, for example, from which the term vandalism is not wrongly derived. That is why the Slavs were successful in colonizing and the violent and Slavery driving Germanic tribes and Vikings were not! That is why today there are very many Slavs and only very few Scandinavian descendants of the Vikings in comparison. That is why half of Europe is populated by Slavs and the descendants of the Vikings live in the same relatively small area as 1000 years ago compared to the large area of ​​the Slavs. The same applies to the descendants of the Germanic tribes, the only thing they have colonized in Europe is England and small Slavic areas in East Germany because otherwise they are where they were 1000 years ago in contrast to the Slavs who successfully colonized half of Europe.

    In the story 'Going Postal' when one of the main characters offers up a sausage as a gift to the god Offler he has a short conversation with a priest about how the ritual works. "“As I understand it,” said Moist, “the gift of sausages reaches Offler by being fried, yes? And the spirit of the sausages ascends unto Offler by means of the smell? And then you eat the sausages?” “Ah, no. Not exactly. Not at all,” said the young priest, who knew this one. “It might look like that to the uninitiated, but, as you say, the true sausagidity goes straight to Offler. He, of course, eats the spirit of the sausages. We eat the mere earthy shell, which, believe me, turns to dust and ashes in our mouths.” “That would explain why the smell of sausages is always better than the actual sausage, then?” said Moist. “I’ve often noticed that.” The priest was impressed. “Are you a theologian, sir?” he said.

Byzantine chroniclers noted that Roman prisoners captured by the Slavs could soon become free members of Slavic society if they wished. So Slavs were the only ones who even assimilated Romans and not just captured soldiers but the population of entire conquered territories. According to the 6th-century manual of war "Strategikon" by Byzantine Emperor Maurice the Slavs were a hospitable people and did not keep prisoners indefinitely "but lay down a certain period after which they can decide for themselves if they want to return to their former homelands or to stay amongst the Slavs as free men and friends." The Byzantine scholar Pseudo-Caesarius's wrote that Slavs living by their own law and without the rule of anyone. The Slave were reported to have lived under a democracy for a long time. The 6th-century historian Procopius, who was in contact with Slavic mercenaries, reported, "The Slavic nations, are not governed by one man, but from ancient times have lived in democracy, and consequently everything which involves their welfare, whether for good or for ill, is referred to the people." The 6th-century manual of war Strategikon by Byzantine Emperor Maurice is considered an eyewitness of the Slavs and said that "the Slaves were independent, absolutely refused to be enslaved or governed, least of all in their own land." The Slavs managed to keep up their agriculture (and a rather efficient kind of agriculture, by the standards of the time). There were no nobility and no kings with the greed for more and contempt for peasant's work, as it did with the Germanic Tribes. Thus the Slavic model proved an attractive alternative ... which proved practically indestructible. Slav traditions, language, and culture shaped, or at least influenced, innumerable local and regional communities: a surprising similarity that developed without any central institution to promote it. These regional ethnogeneses inspired by Slavic tradition incorporated considerable remnants of the Roman or Germanic population ready enough to give up ethnic identities that had lost their cohesion. Slavs were so successful in the assimilation of other peoples because they weren't as barbaric as the Germanic tribes or Vikings. Slavs did not practice slavery and they didn't maraud like the Germanic vandals, for example, from which the term vandalism is not wrongly derived. That is why the Slavs were successful in colonizing and the violent and Slavery driving Germanic tribes and Vikings were not! That is why today there are very many Slavs and only very few Scandinavian descendants of the Vikings in comparison. That is why half of Europe is populated by Slavs and the descendants of the Vikings live in the same relatively small area as 1000 years ago compared to the large area of ​​the Slavs. The same applies to the descendants of the Germanic tribes, the only thing they have colonized in Europe is England and small Slavic areas in East Germany because otherwise they are where they were 1000 years ago in contrast to the Slavs who successfully colonized half of Europe.

    An Eastern European has one of the heaviest raw totals in powerlifting (1160kg by Petr Petras) and powerlifting is much more popular in the West. Mariusz Pudzianowski (Polish) has the most world strongest man titles (5 titles) in history. Nikola Tesla (South Slav) was one of the smartest men in recent history. Slavs were very oppressed because of bad circumstances - Slavs were some of the first people attacked by Asian invaders and so acted like a shield for much of Europe. Slavs were also extremely divided and violent towards each other, which severely weakened Slavs, making them easier targets for Asian invaders.

    Huns, Turks and Mongols have Scythian origins according to Byzantine records (look up the article called "The Byzantine Turks"). There are NO ancient records stating that the Huns were wiped out or left Eastern Europe. According to Jordanese, Huns were Scythians, Sarmatians and Getae (Getae were Thracians and Thrace was known as Scythia Minor) - this does not contradict the origins of the Huns.

As Slavs definitely came from the middle east originally however it was most likely around between 5 - 10 thousand years ago. Which is more than all of the written history combined. Depending on your perspective of how back into the future you want to go, 1 thousand years , 10 thousand years, or 100 thousand years.

    The South Slavic tribal groups moved south and southwest from their Pripet homeland, eventually entering the Byzantine-controlled Balkan Peninsula as either allies of or refugees from the invading Turkic Avars during the second half of the sixth century. Their search for a new, permanent homeland proved successful. Today their descendants solidly inhabit virtually all of the northwestern, central, and southeastern regions of the Balkans. Turks comprise a third ethnic component of the Balkan population. Although today numerically small-a little over 1 million people (about 2 percent of the total population) they have played a role in shaping the history of the Balkans far beyond their numbers. In late antiquity the rolling plains of the Danube and Prut rivers in the Balkans' northeast served Turkic tribes from the Eurasian steppes as an open door into the heart of the peninsula and the riches of the Eastern Roman Empire. Huns and related tribes swept through the Balkans in the fifth and sixth centuries, followed by the Avars and their allies in the sixth and seventh. Among these latter were the Bulgars, who established a state south of the Danube. Unlike the Avars, whose settlements in the Balkans proved transitory, the Bulgar state persisted in the face of concerted Byzantine pressures. By the ninth century the Bulgars were challenging the Byzantine Empire for political hegemony in the Balkans, but by that time they also were well on the way toward ethnic assimilation into their Slavic-speaking subject population. The conversion of the Turkic Bulgar ruling elite to Orthodox Chris-tianity at midcentury opened the gate to their rapid and total Slavic assimilation. Within a hundred years of the Bulgar conversion, most traces of their Turkic origins had disappeared, except for their name-the Bulgars had been transformed into Slavic Bulgarians Oğuz, Pecheneg, and Cuman Turkic tribes appeared in the Balkans between the ninth and eleventh centuries. Most of them eventually suffered an ethnic fate similar to the Bulgars and left little lasting impression, although the Gagauz Turks of Bessarabia, a region lying east of the Prut River (now known as Moldova), and some Turks living today in the eastern Balkans may be direct ethnic descendants of those medieval Turkic interlopers. Additionally, the Ottoman Turks' five-century rule over most of the Balkans established numerous scattered enclaves of Turkish- speaking groups throughout much of the southern portion of the peninsula, with a heavy concentration in the southeastern region of ancient Thrace.

    Being an Indian Hindu, it is very weird noticing that many of such Slavic practices are still practiced by Hindus, although we don't sacrifice animals( some sects like Tantra do). We believe in Karma and reincarnation, there is a similar hell and heaven in Hindu theology, but you have to earn it by your thoughts and deeds and even then, your soul can't permanently stay in hell or heaven for long, for you have to reincarnate. This is a long term cycle. But, I believe that Slavs can always be thankful to their Christian heritage, for civilizing and unifying them in line with other language groups of Europe, like giving you an unique alphabet and so on. I have always been interested in Greek, Latin and Hindu mythology, but have never heard about Slavic or Germanic ones, due to fewer literature, I guess.

    Just a slight addition to the fascinating material in this video. Up until some 4,000 years ago, Germanic and Slavic peoples were part of a common ethnic group. There are in fact still linguistic traces of our common origins in the words we share for some of the most common everyday objects, very clear to students of Old English and the Germanic languages as they were during the Middle Ages.

    Please tell me where do you get Bojana from? I don't know her , but I am sure Bojan was god of war. He is in form Wojan in Kosmas as 1 of 7 mythical czech kings. These are names of the days of the week and Wojan represents Thursday, day of Mars. Also Bojan from Slovo o pulku Igoreve might picture god Bojan. Island Buyan is 3rd eye. Where do you get name Miroslava from? I would name her Dziewanna, Siemianna, and she is goddes of peace, earth, family, virginity. Mir and Mąt (Munt) are two "worlds" parts of Vth czarka one related to pisces and leo - and its a white, peaceful world, other to libra and aquarius - and its black, troubled world.

Not only Raped Pillaged and Plundered, but taken as slaves not only in their country but removed from their homeland and made slaves and sold to other nations, IE:- Magyars to French, Ottomans to Turkey and sold to Arab nations, and Venetians to Italy.

    Never heard about Vinča ? The 6th century Mythologie is a product of the Berlin-Vienna historical school.The south slavs are autochtone at the Balkans.Just a simple question : In the Ice period did melt from south to north or from north to south.Some linguistic proof : the name for a squirrel in Russian is belka (belo=white) .So when the people moved from south to north ,because the ice melted first in south they saw white squirrels in Russia (for example ) because the ice was still there.The last proof is the DNA heritage .For that listen to the American professor Kljossow. Sorry professor for writing your name wrong. Beside those facts your video is good. Because we are the old European civilisation the others wanted to destroy us.Slave - slavic We are not slaves.In Vinča culture there were no slaves and the people lived peacefully together without war.The western civilisation sacrifice the society/community for oneself.The slavic mentality is the opposite.We sacrifice oneself for the others. Slavic brothers don't let the "new world order" change our traditions.
