What are the biggest difference between slavic and Germanic

Bump

Different names for the gods? What's there to paganism anyway besides making sacrifices every once in a while
It's not like they had some standardized intricate system of worship afaik

Different names and different stories but by and large they are similar. For example they both highly revered thunder gods. Thor(Norse) and correct me if I'm wrong Perun(Slavic). Also the rituals performed to honor them probably were unique to their individual cultures.

One is practiced by LARPing Americans of slavic descent, the other is practiced by LARPing Americans who like Hitler.

>>3366698
None. They used to be the same people

Are you choosing which one to LARP as?
Also google it by yourself and read it on your own. Do you really need 4chan to spoonfeed you?

A better question would be what are the biggest similarities?
They are two completely different Polytheistic religions, there are tonnes of differences

>>3367699
there aren't

>>3367721
They are completely fucking different, different gods, different mythologies, different afterlives, different rituals. The Slavic faith is much closer to Romuva, the baltic faith.

We don't really know. Lucky for Norsefags the Poetic Edda and other sources survived intact. It maybe that the Germanics and the Vends had enough interaction that they were variants on each-other. Who knows.

Polytheism, especially indo-European religion, had tons of local variations and inter-tribal exchange that the borders of between people are blurred religiously. They started from the same source, separated, changed and then came back and exchanged.

Those Donar Hammer necklaces for instances originated as Hercules clubs popular with Romans and adapted in North Gaul by Germans. In a few generations they became part of the culture and the history. So yeah who knows how much alike they were.

Not at all.
Thor has nothing to do with warfare, unlike Perun. Also, his position among gods wasn't really relevant besides being defender of Aesir from the Jotun, unlike Perun.

Also, among main gods of Slavs you have Veles (underworld and cattle) and Svarog (Sun), which is nothing like in Norse mythology.
