    Amazing that after more than 600 years there are still people who believe they are equals of those true malemen at Grunwald 1410. No matter what side you on now, if you're 2015 AD you'd shut your fuckin' mounth and praise those heroes from the past.

    Fun fact: out of the approximately 27.000 men strong army of the Teutonic order, only less than 400 were actual Teutonic knights.

    15th July 1410 - Battle of Grunwald. The battle was one of the largest battles in Medieval Europe and is regarded as the most important victory in the history of Poland, Belarus and Lithuania.The battle shifted the balance of power in Eastern Europe and marked the rise of the Polish–Lithuanian union as the dominant political and military force in the region.

    To all those Teutonic crazy fans: Poland and Lithuania converted to Catholicism hundreds of years before 1410. Teutonic Order can launch war legitimately only for converting pagans or protecting Christendom. The Order in 1410 invaded Lithuania regardless of the absence of caucus belli. Poland being the ally of Lithuania answered the call of the latter and in the Battle of Grunwald, when Lithuanian army fled, the Polish army defeated the Order and saved the day. Originally, the Order was invited by Polish king in order to quell the pagan of northern Poland. The Order after achieving that goal, became aggressive occupant and sought to invade Poland and Lithuania all the time. Many battles were fought in which Poland and Lithuania were the defensive side. In the Battle of Grunwald as in many other battles between Catholic Poland-Lithuania and the Order, the two countries were good guys and the Order were bad guys. Poland since 14th century established a system of elective monarchy, in which noble democracy was built, commoners were treated better in Poland than in the Order, and cities enjoyed privileges. After defeating the Order and founding the Commonwealth, the two countries would together sing a song of liberty, religious tolerance, democracy, scientific progress and prosperity in the age of autocracy and political absolutism. Again, in this battle, the Order was the bad guy and Poland-Lithuanian Alliance was the good guy.
