  • When I was growing up, you never heard much about Eastern Europe, other than that it was poor. There was the rich, expensive countries of Western Europe like Switzerland, and then there were the cheap, "backwards" nations like Romania. You went to Western Europe to make money and you went to Eastern Europe for a cheap vacation, and that was that.
    Well, one country is really changing up that whole stereotype. What if I told you that there's now a large country in Eastern Europe that has a higher GDP per capita than Spain and Portugal? It's an innovative country with a bright future that people are moving to. Even though it spent the last century being kicked around by it's two much larger neighbors, nowadays...🇵🇱 is being a power all of it's own.

      You are correct. The two conspired to spilt Poland between themselves. Stalin held the Red Army's invasion back by 17 days so Germany would take almost all the blame.

    The only reason I envy Europe is its much fewer population compared to Asia. The rice really ruins Asian's standard of living. My mountainous province in China has only 1/3 size of Poland but 2 times of population, which means 6 times more density despite mountains. It will be considered a ghost towin in China by the amount of people on the street in Poland. Cry without tears.

    When I was in Warsaw back in 1990, that tall modern building was LOT's. Now it turned into Samsung's. In 1990, there was no sign of Japanese anime cosplay gatherings. A quite big change to an Eastern Asian like myself. One thing I noticed has not changed is its people. Even back then, they were very friendly, helpful and nice.
