  1. Always impressive how Lužice Serbs (Sorbs) managed to still exist with language and all in Germany while everyone else disappeared or was absorbed.

  2. Slavic presence in Greece is really impressive and extensive at that time.

    The Slavs were getting transported from Greece to Anatolia since 600s, although they were filling pockets in these areas an being the minority, they spread into today’s Turkey as well between 700s-900s

  4. Slavs in Greece have heavily influenced our traditions. They combined Greek and Slavic practices into a beautiful blend. I would go on and say that Vlachic (we call Slavs that way, although Wallachia was in Romania and we are predominantly a Serbian influenced nation) villages have the best Carnevale events.

    Wrong map. You mixed all invasions and etc.

    For example baltic tribe Galindai ( goliads ) on moscow, baltic settlement near kyiv.

    Brest Litowsk should be Yotwingian and etc.

    Kulm should be baltic / prussian.

    No idea why Avaria is empty when it was heavily populated. The Avars were only a ruling elite, like the normans in England, they did not settle en-masse, the population of Avaria was almost entirely slavs, romanians and germans, with a few surviving pannonians mixed in.

    They are shown too far into Southeastern Estonia. Much of the coast of Lake Pskov has always been populated by Estonians.

    Also, Estonians aren’t Balts, they are a Finnic people like Finns.

    I would argue, that the western/southern divide ran further to the south, towards or around lake Balaton. Although it’s hard to determine it exactly – and with the maps time frame being 300 years, almost impossible.

  10. All of those borders should be dashed, not only in Pannonia or Baltics. People tend to have a skewed idea of the medieval borders and ethnic groups because they think these were the straight, constant and established lines. Also not every of the pictured lands were majority Slavic, like Greece for example and there were mentions of Slavic presence as far as Asia Minor.

    Also, the differences between western, eastern and southern Slavs were minimal, the Slavic languages separated very late and they all are still very similar to each other.

    Croats, Serbs / Sorbs or people called like that lived also in Bohemia.

  11. It’s not really accurate. Avars were still going strong in Slavonia and Transdanubia, while Slavic colonies in the plains are not shown (Csongrád). White Croats were also not a thing over the Carpathians.

    The west-east-south division did not exist at that time. It only accrued after the Bavarian and Hungarian invasion into northern Carantania and the Danube valley. And even today, the south slavic group is mostly geographical, as the languages did not evolve from a single proto-south slavic language

  13. The map looks nice but in every other aspect it’s a truly bad map, full of fantasies, exaggerations, completely baseless suppositions and fake precision. The sources for this time are very sparse and vague and simply aren’t sufficient to create a map like this. And it seems to be based mostly on a wikipedia map that itself is based on some 1960s soviet propaganda Czech schoolbook.
