>>499446831. Yeah, and power doesn't neccesary equates to the size of a country, but rather to military and financial power. But you are correct saying that it doesn't automatically make people happier. Well, tough shit for us i guess.
2. Ok, we can agree on that and forget this shit about world power lol.
3. I think this fenomenon is similar to what is happening in China towards Japan when japanese get the most hate from children of people who have suffered under intervention but haven't experienced it firsthand.
Poland is unique in that it has parted ways with USSR piecefully and people took control of their country. Sad part for your people was that Soviet affiliated government consisted of polish people almost exclusively which means they sold thir own people to stay in power. That shit is hard to swallow and it, in my opinion, intensifies and project hatred towards Russia even more. Let's not forget that Georgian and Crimean events were presented in wery anti-Russia centered way and we end up where we are in our relations. It's kinda sad, but, once again, tough shit lol.
