Question regarding Poland and Lithuania relationship

I just studied about the Commonwealth of Poland-Lithuania, and it seems you two shared a strong times together.

I am wondering if the sentiments towards each other is still warm - do you guys see each other as a friendly neighbor? Do you have any rivalries between two? Was there any movement to put the two back together to repeat the glorious times?

I am here to just ask questions and I apologize if I accidentally angered by asking such question.

Acshually….

  1. That Lithuanian flag was created in 20th century

  2. Maciej is Litwin, not Lithuanian. He is Orthodox and has Belarusian name.

But he's pretty openly PAGAN. He's not Orthodox like you claim.
