      One of the biggest political mistakes in our history. Sobieski shouldn’t even move a finger to rescue or not our territory or demand a large payment for help or take it by yourself after Austrians didn’t pay anything. One the biggest lessons for us that we should never help others if we don’t have any interest in it.
