What If Poland Was Never Partitioned? | Countryballs #countryballs Poland vanished from the map for 123 years. In this timeline, it never does. What if the reforms had come first, Austria had remembered who saved Vienna in 1683, and the partitions never happened? An alternate history from the liberum veto to a 2026 Commonwealth of 65 million, then a gloriously silly future. This is alternate history: everything after the divergence in 1768 is fiction.
