Such a beautiful culture,kinda hits home,it reminds me of my own albo Catholic mountain person heritage though I try to disassociate as much as a i can
Vojvodina also has a community of Slovak Lutherans too.in fact Lutheranism is the 4th largest religion in Serbia.I kinda like croats but that's just me.You have to feel bad for them cause eastern Zagreb is full of kosovan croats who gave up their careers due to albo terrorists
I never gave them the name,they just simply called themselves that though older generation rusyns call themselves rusnaks and the areas they lived was called lemkovina.kinda confusing but they are divided into the subgroups of lemkos,boykos,hutsuls,sometimes gorals and rusyns.The Greek Catholic church of Slovakia is in fact rusyn dominated though the priests encouraged slovakization back in the 2000s and many rusyns in Slovakia during the hapsburg rule became Catholic and identified as Slovak just to have a easier life.in fact it almost caused the community to be extinct or near extinction
Many rusyns also lived in Poland though their native province somewhere in southeastern Poland is now mostly polish due to the ww2 population exchange and resettlements where the Germans left west Poland and they needed people to inhabit then abandoned houses
Zakarpatia was under austro hungarian rule and even some Hungarian rule before that but the borders changed after the world wars which is how there are rusyns in that part of Ukraine even though they were separated by geopolitics for a thousand years.enough time to develop their own distinct identity
I know vojvodina in Serbia has a community of Croatian serbs
I don't know about navolny or in russia,I know rusyns can be found in Ukraine especially zakarpatia oblast where they go back and forth between speaking Ukrainian and rusyn.I know eastern Slovakia has lots especially the mountainous villages and Pittsburgh Pennsylvania is the rusyn American capital even the Greek Catholic priests have roots from slovakia.I know many rusyn Americans converted to the Russian orthodox faith
@murkybro that's rich coming from the likes of you,a old man living with 2 dogs in a caravan full of life threatening animals.if that doesn't say mental then I don't know what does
Dobro Igor,lol no rusyns are the orthodox Christians and Greek Catholics that speaks eastern slavic language that resembles Ukrainian more than Russian and they live in central Europe,they were encouraged by the magyars to settle on the border regions a thousand years ago due to it being flat land that could be easily invaded so rusyns are mountainous somewhat warrior folk and many of not all of them are part Aromanian due to Aromanians being orthodoxs,peasants and not being centralized as a collective just like how most Bosnian Serb and Croatian Serbs have Aromanian blood.for example Andy Warhol is of lemko heritage a rusyn subgroup but his family came from Slovakia
The leader of the rusyn American organization complained that back in the 80s about how The Russian orthodox church in America were being negative towards his organization by calling it divisive and police had to be involved
