No mark, they are not - yo uare mixing so called Greko-Catholic with Russian Orthodox ( "Prawoslawni" ). Cuprum most likely meant the latter.

Perhaps he meant both. No reason not to, they're all Orthodox.

You can't get to 1,000,000 with only Eastern Orthodox in Poland.

You need to count the Uniate as well, and then you reach about a million (though it depends a bit on who is counting).

And, of course, that is modern Poland. Previously Poland was much more Orthodox (both varieties).

Well ,strictly speaking they are not both Orthodox (although personally I dont care much either way ha ha.. :) ) . Greko-Catholics in Poland are minority within minority. It is basically part of Ukrainian Orthodox community that was forced by Polish authorities around late 20s/early 30s to turn Catholic (there were bitter Polish-Ukrainian conflicts in Poland at that time). Just my few pennies.

Cuprum, благодарю вас! Я был бы очень заинтересован в более флаги, как это определенно особенно для красных в Петрограде 1919 года и Северо-Запад Белой армии 1919 года. Spaceba!
Cuprum,
I hope that makes sense; I'm trying a new online translator called Babelfish. Thank You! That flag is excellent. I would be very interested in more flags like this definately especially for Reds at Petrograd 1919 and Northwest White Army 1919. Spaceba!

It is glad, that has managed to help.
Your letter in Russian - is quite clear.
My basic interest in the period of Civil war in Russia - Siberia and Central Asia. But I will try to pick up for your request in "archive" banners of the period of fights for Petrograd.

That would be great; also interested in Siberia now that I have seen the trailer for Admiral - inspiring stuff.

Listening to: Shostakovich symphony no. 12 Op. 112 - "The Year of 1917" - "Revolutionary Petrograd".
