[scanlations] Lithuania's Out Sourcing Series Part II

This is part two of the Lithuania's Out Sourcing Series! Part One is here!

There were some extra pics and request fills in the page where this manga was posted, but I figured since it had nothing to do with the continuity, I left them out.

Once again, translations done by [livejournal.com profile] youkofujima and edits done by [livejournal.com profile] konkira , thanks so much for your help!



■Lithuania's Out Sourcing■











(translator's note: Poland is talking about the grain they're gonna export)

The Polish-Lithuania Commonwealth was a huge European nation during the 14-16th centuries.
They were able to gain a lot of territory by harvesting and exporting grains.

But afterwards, the money they got from the exports were all accumulated by the nobility and then caused the Commonwealth to weaken in the wars with Ukraine and Sweden.

And then as the nobility fought over the idea of “I’M THE NEXT KING,” Prussia, Russia, and Austria saw a chance to start attacking them.

At this time, Kosciuszko of the Lithuanians began to enact new laws to begin armament of the nation in order to protect Poland from the three other large nations. But in the end, it failed and the Polish-Lithuania Commonwealth was cut apart like a cake.

Even now, Kosciuszko is a hero of Poland.

On that note, it seems that Austria joined Russia and Prussia on the partitioning with some reluctance. (Austria’s boss, Maria Theresa, didn’t seem to be all that gung-ho about it)
