RE: All-history thread - Kinro - 30.03.2017
There's a legend for how cities of Będzin, Sosnowiec and Czeladź got their names.
One day, a travelling knight was asked by his retainer where to settle the camp. He answered:
WE WILL ("będzim") here, the CREW ("czeladź") will be there sleeping, and there, where are those PINES ("sosny"), we will be shitting.
The original line was rhymed, so I allowed myself to try to do such as well.
Also, this is a quite literal translation.

Poorly edited, poorly done video about Będzin Medieval Fair.

Interesting documentary about our (not only) country or.. What we haven't been taught in history lessons:
Broadcasted yesterday on ČT2 in Czech, to be reprised soon:

It's no wonder our World looks like it looks when was built by this generation of people and we continue with this legacy. Can one murder justify another? Who is not guilty?
