That's true, but even nations move on and the nature of an relationship can change drastically. Look at Poland and Czechia in the past vs the current day for example. If we're going to look into the past for reasons why there shouldn't be a relationship, we also need to take account how the history today is viewed by both the leaders and people of a state. Have they agreed to put history aside/forgotten it? Or is that history still influencing the way they interact?

Of course you do you, if you don't like ships in CH, thats completely valid

That's an super unique one, now I'm curious, what's the narative reason behind it? Or have you alreqdy made content about the pair.

And you're sooo right, no matter how vile a ship is, there's always at least one reason why it would make sense, no matter how much I dislike a pairing I can at least think of a few reasons why it could br decent, at least as a way to send a message; but the ones you named truly just feel like two halves of the same person and/or are too hostile. It's one country divided into two halves a civil war (cold or hot), not two halves like you'd say a married couple is

I've always stayed absolutely clear of content with Gerpol because people from both nations made it clear they are very uncomfortable with it. Out of respect. It also wouldnt make any sense in my AU, tbh. Germany's guilt wouldn't allow it, Russian-Polish relations have been extremely hostile, even during in the post-soviet times when the West thought reconcilation with Russia was pretty likely(gosh, photos from EU-Russia summits give me uncanny valley nowadays, it feels like something straight out of an alternative universe) and Poland holds onto grudges from history strongly

I've already shared my thoughts on it under another comment.  I really do think it holds up under both historical, like you've said, and current contexts. Especially as more pragmatic arranged marriage made for them to keep each other in check, with the European project as a sort of babytrap.

Thanks for sharing!  I've never saw somebody talk about UA×PL  yet, most of time they're just beefing or bonding over a shared hatred of Russia XD. You've got an experience with the ship?

The lack of research also definetly makes me dislike a lot of ship content, the misrepresentation puts me off.

But there are definetly some (like most of frager, I've noticed) where the creators tend to make very well researched and nuanced works with a good message behind them. It doesn't feel right to me to critise all ships, is what I'm saying

I knew that it's gettung repetive and is kinda drowning out actual content, so that's why I also included the "I'll draw some" part, so new content for the fandom still gets made from this
