What are the major cultural differences between Ukraine, Belarus and Russia?
>>
>>77853382
Different flavors of Shit.
>>
Um anda elegante, o outro bonito.
>>
>>77853396
this. but i'd say different colours instead
>>
>>77853382
>Ukraine
Main export are mail order brides, they like the west
>Belarus
Easy to get rused in their country, don't care much about the west
>Russia
Really big, like, really, really big, likes the west, in secret

They all speak a different version of the same language, but they'll maybe deny that.
They also all love Adidas.
>>
Ukraine: Failed stated. Africa tier economy and extreme corruption.

Belarus: Dictatorship shithole. But better than Ukraine. Probably the only country that is 100% white, mostly because it is a shithole and immigrants don't want to go there. Also it is very Russified, majority of the population speaks Russian.

Russia-Shithole, but better than the two above. Also the only relevant Slavic country. Has great history and culture.
>>
>>77853465
>They all speak a different version of the same language, but they'll maybe deny that
If fucking Cantonese and Mandarin are considered just dialects, then so should Russian, Ukrainian and Belorusian.
>>
>>77853528
Belarus is better than Russia though. Better infrustructure, everything is well maintained etc.
>>
Russian culture is very different from Belarusian or Ukrainian. Belarus and Ukraine have common origins, they were both influenced by Poland. Even their languages are mutually intelligible. Russia basically has nothing in common with either of them.
>>
>>77853641
Don't lie, you have similarities, but Russia is so big they have similarities with parts of Russia only, not general Russia.
But yes, wasn't Belarus part of Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth?
>>
>>77853382
pretty much no difference. belorussians are less nationalist than the other two though
>>
>>77853535
thats more a problem of counting the different chinese languages as just different dialects than counting russian/ukrainian/belarusian as different languages. it'd be more like saying slavic is a language. the chinese thing is just wrong/weird. arabic has the same problem I think, from what I understand someone in iraq and someone from like algeria can hardly understand each other and yet they still all say they're speaking the same language
>>
>>77853641
Belarusian language is dying. Most of the population speaks Russian.
>>
>>77853528
Russia [...] the only relevant Slavic country.

I don't want to be considered Slavic. Fucking pagan, Per(d)un worshipping, illiterate, kokoshnik wearing tree huggers. But my DNA test will probably show that I'm Slavic, which, I think, should be a good enough reason to kill myself.
>>
>>77853641
>Russia basically has nothing in common with either of them.
despite the differences in the past these days russia and belarus are exactly the same shit, like totally the same.
>>
>>77853702
With Arabs it's all because of regional dialects, vocabulary and idioms.
But written it's the same everywhere.

Chinese "dialects" comes from the PRC we are all Chinese, not Han, or Manchurian or Tibetan or whatever.
>>

>>
>>77853736
I figured the chinese bit is just because of the chinese government and the way they want to have a uniform culture/language throughout china and that differences don't exist

didn't know about the arabic though. If their script is standardized then that makes sense. so I guess they have their local dialects that aren't exactly mutually intelligible but also have a standardized arabic that they all know and use
>>
>>77853535
>>77853702
>>77853736
It's politics, yeah.
Saying that Mandarin and Cantonese are just dialects would not be as extreme as saying that Persian and Arabic are, but somewhere along those lines of stupidity.
Belorusian really is different from Russian, I can maybe understand 20-60% usually of what's being said.
With Ukrainian it's a bit more nuanced - you'll get different versions of Ukrainian language depending on what part of the country the speaker is from. Sometimes it's pretty much mutually intelligible with Russian, and other times it might as well be Polish to us. Grammar is somewhat different - but still close enough to be mutually intelligible. It's mainly the vocabulary that differs - close to Polish in the West, closer to Russian in the East.

>>
>>77853465
They all speak Russian, but for the actual languages, i dont think Belarussian and Russian are dialects. Belarussian sounds really different to me, it sounds like mix of Polish and Russian to me.

Slovak and Czech are dialects, so is Serbo-Croatian and whatever else they pretend to speak in Balkans except for Slovenian.

86% with Russian, 1% more than Slovak and Polish and understanding spoken Polish is really hard for me.

My Belaruse friend told me that if she speaks in Belarus Russian wont understand her but some anon here told me its bs so idk
>>
>>77853927
well, slovene is by itself. serbian, croatian, bosnian and montenegrin are all just different dialects of the same language. bulgarian and macedonian are also dialects of the same language. so there's 3 major slavic languages in the balkans, not counting nationless ones like torlak or whatever
>>
>>77853465
>>77853927
People in Western-most Ukraine don't necessarily speak Russian. When they do, it's really really poor. And I don't think they're pretending out of hatred - that way they'd just be saying that they don't speak Russian at all. While they hate us, I don't think the hatred can be so strong and deep to force them to fake and tweak their Russian knowledge.
>>
>>77853909
Our heritage is not Slavic. Just because Russian is technically considered Slavic, even though it has barely anything in common with Slavic languages, doesn't mean we are somehow connected with Slavs. Our heritage is steppe.

It would be easier to find similarities, of which there are very few. Russian culture is not connected to Belarusian or Ukrainian one.

Two different countries bordering each other. They do share a lot of history and geographic location so they must have some similarities. Same like Belgium and Netherlands or Germany and Austria (but even less, cause they don't share the language).

Belarus is Canada of Eastern Europe - they are nice, friendly and in good relations with every neighbor.
Russia is USA of Eastern Europe - big and have very strong influence on neighbors.
Ukraine is Mexico of Eastern Europe - poor and corrupted.

No you didn't, Vlad.
Proto-Slavs from the Pinsk marshes were a settled people. They invaded south for farmland.

Belarusians are the lightest. You see lot of blonde haired people there.

Russians have diverse look, From Blonde haired, blue eyed to Mediterranean looking (olive skin, dark hair). They are like White Americans.

Ukrainians are pretty dark.

According to her Belorussian is more or less a dead language.

Actually there is, but it's not really different from European part.

Ukraine seems much more... open, but both are real nice. What I didn't like about Belarus is that many people didn't want to talk/talked to you like you were dumb when they realise that you don't speak Russian or Belarusian. That never happened in Ukraine.

And they mostly live in a little strip in the southern part of the region, just like Canada.
And they have nothing worthwhile apart from natural resources, just like Canada.
And they are completely irrelevant next to their more powerful, influential neighbors, just like Canada.
