>>19540312>but you lacked relevancy outside of eastern-central europeNo because we always seeked to resolve situations peacefully without going full retard and genociding a nation left and right while looting everything we can get hands on.

>Poland defeats Teutonic Order>Turns Teutonic Order into vassal>Poland defeats Moldavia>Poland turns Moldavia into vassal>Poland defeats Wallachia>Same thing>Poland defeats Tsardom of Russia>again>Poland defeats Livonia>Once againThen we have countries that wanted to be vassals and became em:
Novgorod
Theodosia
Kievan Rus
It's weird how Commonwealth had bunch of vassals even though it could easily just land grab and genocide the population (things Russians did and many others)
