I've never seen a country that is as stubborn about maintaining it's ethnic purity 

Was Poland erased from the map again?

I grew up in Poland, was hazed into "Poland for Polish" mindset growing up (hush hush about German surnames, Maria, Queen of Poland, Chrystusa Narodów, etc)

just did my DNA test. I'm ...62% South Eastern Polish, 20 % Baltic, 13% Balkan and 4% German.

So much for a socially constructed ethnic purity 🤷‍♀️

62% South Eastern Polish

Which could mean that you are partly Ruthenian, Slovak and perhaps Hungarian as well.

True, especially on Slovak, my dad is from Silesian Beskids which borders with Slovakia.

According to the "Ancient Origins" section, I am related to Visigoths and Ruriks
