<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IvaPan, post: 9789593, member: 78949&quot;]Thank you, Any, for the clarification! Very well said and indeed historically correct.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not some keen nationalist or patriot but I am fed up with Russian imperialism, its constant lies and efforts to diminish other nations&#039; achievements, and steal whatever they can from their history. It happens with Ukraine now, although Ukraine is an older country than Russia and it can be said that historically Russia (Moscow Principality- Московское княжество) was established as a periphery of Ukraine (Kiev Rus) rater than the opposite (which Russian propagandists constantly claim).</p><p><br /></p><p>B.t.w., I remember a Flemish bookstore keeper in Brussels who asked me where I am from and after I answered, he exclaimed &quot;Oh, yes, the oldest country in Europe!&quot; Which is also historically true, Bulgaria is the oldest country in Europe with the same name and in (almost) the same geographical location.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
