    Your map is wrong. Crimea is not part of Ukraine for 10 years. The citizens of Crimea are Russians for 10 years. No Ukrainian authority has something to say there for 10 years. And still you claim it is Ukrainian? You know the war right now happening there happens because of guys like you 😂.

In addition, Lukashenko has pushed and pulled Belarus towards Russia's orbit to varying degrees based on his own agenda and maintaining his own power. There's much more to be said about the subject.

    @TeutonicEmperor1198 Maybe you should explain that to the actual Belarusian nationalists today because the largest of several units of Belarusian volunteers fighting for Ukraine (another thing not mentioned in this video) and probably the biggest foreign volunteer unit in Ukraine overall - the Kastuś Kalinoŭski Regiment is named one of the January Uprising's commanders and has the date 1863 on its banner. Also, I love how you described the guys who were mostly young and progressive radicals and were supported at the time by both Garibaldi and Marx as "old royalists". Shows what an expert you are. But OK, let's agree for the sake of an argument that the January Uprising is an irrelevant ancient history, which was just a Polish rebellion anyway (and that it doesn't matter haw Belarusians themselves view it). That still doesn't explain not mentioning the massive 2020-2021 protests, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, and the United Transitional Cabinet operating right now.

    I think Belarus has a shared history with the Polish Lithuania commonwealth. What not happened to Russia. The other flag of Belarus with a horse shows how the country is connected to Lithuania. I guess those countries may share some culture between them and maybe could be a little bit different from Russia. The other sign that Belarus people doesn't feel they are Russian is that they didn't want to join Russia. Many countries have many things in common, but don't want to join such as Slovenia and Czechia.

В недрах НКВД была придумана несуществующая антикоммунистическая организация СВБ ("союз освобождения Белaруси"). Под придуманный фантом энкавэдисты проводили аресты, вели воображаемое следствие, допрашивали, пытали, судили, потом ссылали в paсeю и расстреливали невинных людей. После Рижского сговора в 1921 году Беларусь разделили между Польшей и paсeей. Границу раздела провели недалеко от Менска. Существовал тайный приказ НКВД уничтожать всё белорусское население вдоль границы. Российские аккупанты хотели сделать здесь безлюдную зону. Уничтожение осуществляли пограничные войска. Довереным лицам выдавали винтовку и лопату. Когда такой солдат-пограничник встречал в безлюдном месте (на дороге, в поле, в лесу) одинокого белоруса или белоруску, или ребенка, он стрелял человека, тут же лопатой выкапывал яму и засыпал труп. Такова была инструкция. Люди в деревнях не так боялись "человека с ружьём", как солдата с лопатой. (Эти факты опубликованы в белaруской печати в начале 90-х годов.) В 30-х годах на 95-99 процентов (практически полностью) была уничтожена (сослана и расстреляна) белaруская коммунистическо-партийная и советская администрация. Уничтожали даже директорат и хозяйственных руководителей. На должности убитых администраторов и коммунистических начальников-белорусов присылали “русских” из paсeии. “Русские” 🇷🇺 (так называемые "выдвиженцы") приезжали в Беларусь, занимали освобожденные должности, получали льготы, имущество, квартиры и первое, что они делали -- закрывали белорусские школы, переводили их на “русский” язык, чтобы их дети могли учиться, не обременяя себя изучением, как они говорили, "никому ненужного" белaруского языка. Таким образом оккупанты создавали в Беларуси "русскоязычное” население". Этноцид, лингвацид, мнемацид и геноцид проводзились большевиками одновременно. Уничтожение белaрусов рaсeйским НКВД продолжалось и во времена немецкой аккупации. В июне 1941 года в первые дни войны коммунисты расстреляли в тюрьмах и на этапах тысячи заключенных. Только в Брестской крепости, где была страшная тюрьма НКВД, всех арестованных ликвидировать не успели, часть из них разбежалась. Тем временем большая группа надзирателей и функционеров НКВД была заблокирована в крепости немцами. Они сидели там около месяца, пока не вымерли. Лет через 20 после войны коммунисты придумали легенду о "героической обороне" Брестской крепости. Обращает на себя внимание тот факт, что широкое советское партизанское движение было организовано только в Беларуси и частично -- на этнических белaруских землях, которые были в составе paсeии (Смоленщина, Брянщина). В оккупированой России партизанского движения не было. Почему? Да потому, что продолжал действовать план уничтожения белорусской нации. Москва, используя органы НКВД, втянула массы гражданского белорусского населения в войну против немцев, и этим подставила белорусов под немецкий удар. Необходимое дело борьбы исходило из коварного замысла и осуществлялось подлыми методами. (Сталин хотел получить двойную выгоду.) Энкавэдисты специально около белорусской деревени убивали немца или делали другую провокацию, чтобы вызвать карательную операцию гитлеровцев (которые обычно сжигали всю деревню, чаще всего -- вместе с людьми). Таким образом, кстати, в результате специальной провокации советских партизан была сожжена и известная Хатынь, которую коммунисты потом в 70-х годах разрекламировали на весь мир как типичную жертву фашистского зверства. В результате такой коммуно-фашистской совместной "работы" в Беларуси сожгли более 9 тысяч деревень. Поэтому к концу войны, в результате специальной операции НКВД, многие белaaруские командиры были посланы на смерть, отстранены от командования, убиты и репрессированы. Их места занимали русские, присланные из Мосвы, и верные энкавэдисты. Летом 1944 года, когда "красная армия" заняла Беларусь, “русские” провели мобилизацию в армию на белaруской территории. Десятки тысяч молодых белaруских мужчин, почти без подготовки, бросили на передовую линию фронта. “pусские” командиры поднимали их в ненужные атаки под огонь немецких пулеметов, не дав даже оружия в руки, или с винтовками, но без патронов. Они гибли тысячами, как трава под косой. А те, что бежали назад, попадали под пули энкавэдистских "заградотрядов". Впрочем, заградотряды стреляли и в спину. Так продолжалось уничтожение белaрусов на войне, руками немцев и “русских” одновременно. Как говорили коммунисты, "в борьбе за советскую родину". В 40-х годах русские вывезли в Сибирь и там замучили всех лесников и так называемых "кулаков" из Западной Беларуси. Вывозили вагонами, по разнорядках.

    The answer is this: chronology of Belarus: Rus (980-1190) => GDL (1240-1569) => PLC (1569-1795) => Russian Empire(1795-1917). 555 years of Lithuania+Poland vs 122 years of Russia. So, 555 vs 122. During this 555 years, enough differences have formed on the territory of Belarus so that it does not feel like a common part with Russia. And 122 years as part of Russia could not change anything. Belarusians remembered the glorious times of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and wanted their own state.

    3:12 Rule of thumb in Russian historiography: in every tiny event, under every pebble, lay the beginnings of what eventually would become Russia. Example: "Some dude in 852 farted. This fateful occurrence put in motion an unstoppable chain of events that would eventually inevitably lead to the emergence of the Russian Empire!"

    Dumb. And wrong. The Primary Chronicle says that the various tribes of Slavs, Chuds, Ves and Mordvins hired some Varangians (it doesn't say "Scandinavians") to protect their trade. They wanted to expand their trade into the Baltic. At the time (800's-900's A.D.) their main trade was inland along rivers with the Khazars and the Bolgars and some with the Magyars. These Varangian mercenaries probably came from Gotland Island (not Sweden), and they set up an inland base around Staraya Ladoga, long before there was a Moscow. Belarus is Europe's newest country, and still doesn't really know how to be a country. They used to be a part of Lithuania, but over time became gradually more Polonized. Much of Belarus was once just the eastern part of Poland. Muscovy Russia had no part in Belarus history until Poland became partitioned in the late 1700's, then the Czars used it to grow potatoes. Today those potatoes are radioactive thanks to Chernobyl. There was never a state in history called "Kievan Rus". The name is a modern invention. Also "Rurik" didn't found a dynasty. That is an unproven myth. You do not know what you are talking about. Maybe it's time to try a different hobby?

But from the first partition in 1772 it was became clear that Russian Empire would swallow the whole territory, it was just the matter of time. Plus Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth long time was a puppet state of Russia, like from the beginning of the 18th century.
