Dekameron:
Most polish people dont really care, Serbia is too small and too far.
Serbia isn`t that far from Poland
Small?
Well, if Polish foes steal land from Poles i for sure won`t be one who would say `Poland is too small`. For me, Poland is what Poles say that it is Poland.
Being small or big is relative category or if you wish even temporary. At least Poles should understand that. It also does not giving you picture about importance of some ethos or culture.
Just look how many toponimes and hydronimes from Europe, Eurasia and Asia could be connected with Serbian ethnic name. It is scientifically confirmed that Serbian name is original (samorodno- not given by foreigners), very archaic. Then, what if Serbian name represent in fact original form of Sarmatian name, once universal name for all Slavs and Balkan/Lusatian Serbs just preserved use of that once universal name of all Slavs. Or what, if some other theories suggest (before you say something- those are theories initiated from non-Serbs), Serbs once lived from Baltic (Lusatia) to the Balkan, from Sorbona to the Siberia. In fact theory is based on same eventual scenario- that before Slavs start to use name `Slavs`, Sarmatian (Serbian) name was universally used. Etc, etc...
Speaking about current situation... Serbia is Western Balkan country with about 9 mil. citizens and there is also Serb Republic inside of Bosnia-Herzegovina (about 1 mil. Serbs) and there is other Serbian state- Montenegro (about 400.000 Serbs). There are also Serbs in Macedonia, Slovenia, Romania, Hungary, Austria, Greece, Albania and Romania- about 1 mil. Serbs in wide region.
So, let`s say about 12 mil. Serbs. Most of them in Serbian states. In distant dispora (USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, Britain, France, Sweden, Finland,..) you have about 3 mil Serbs. All in all about 15 mil. Serbs in the world.
Or should i say that Serbs, from all other ethoses in the region, represent ethos which was most usually target for violent assimilation and that many of those assimilated Serbs this way or another still have (could have!) feelings for their Serbian origin.
Furthermore... Serbian language is far most important language of communication on Balkan, according to many analyzers- crucial strategic region in Europe. Songs on Serbian language are far mostly listened songs in the region populated with more then 60 mil. people.
Serbian language (among others) is used for business and ordinary communication from Slovenia to the Southern regions of Hungary, Northern regions of Greece and Western parts of Bulgaria, especialy on the space of former Yugoslavia. About 25 mil. people on Balkan actively using Serbian language. For Balkan proportions it is really high number.
All medieval Slavic states more or less used Serbian translations of Byzantine and Roman laws. Serbian medieval Empire was that time piedmont of Slavic world. Serbian nobility intermeried with numerous important Slavic noble houses, among else with Polish Piast and Jadwiga dinasties. Hungarian nobleman Janos Hunyadi was Serbian and even famous Hungarian King Mathias Corvin was of Serbian origin. Petefi Sandor was also Serbian, etc... usual lovers of Austrian Emperess Maria Theresia were Serbians, etc, etc, etc, etc...
It is obvious why anti-Slavic forces tend to reduce Serbian influence in the region, creating Greater Croatia (Croatia is Slavic country but strongly controlled by Germany) and Greater Albania. I would remind you that one of key titles of Polish Wladislaw Warnenchik was King of Rascia (referring on central Serbian region Ras/... Racowie). Zawisha Charny was killed by Turks near Golubac fortress in Serbia. He died for freedom of Serbians. One of key reasons why medieval Poland was oriented on Balkan were Serbian sufferings under Turkish pressure. Famous Polish King Jan Sobieski was grand master of noble sacred order formed by Serbian Voivode of knights Milos Obilic. Bottom line why Russia destroyed Turkish Empire were also Serbian sufferings. Serbian constant rebbelions greately weakened Ottomans. Biggest battle in beggining of Turkish expansion in Europe was Kosovo battle in 1389, Serbs vs. Turks. Last serious Turkish battle to try to preserve primate in Europe was Kumanovo battle in today`s Macedonia, in 1912, again Serbs vs. Turks. This time, Serbians finished with Turks. Austro-Hungary stop to exist and Slavs under oppresion were liberated when Serbians arised and said- enough. Back in that time, Russians were hand of God- who responded on Serbian prayers.
