urbanoid Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 It was literally the opposite. Russia planned to send the (largely Polish) military to help the Dutch deal with the Belgians. Polish military of a puppet kingdom decided to rebel against the tsar instead and THAT helped secure Belgian independence. I don't know, maybe Yaroslav the Wise dreamed of a future Belgium and therefore Belgium is Russia too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually what is translated into English as "motherland" is usually originally "Родина"(Rodina) in Russian (literally - "place of birth"). Also, world "Отчизна"(Otchizna) or "Отечество"(Otechestvo) is used (usually translated as "Fatherland" but in original Russian it misses "Land", more like "Father's place") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
