Cool you should load up as Polotsk and play it. Make a Animist Russia XD
*watches in horror as Polotsk is violently beaten to a very gory death by the surrounding nations*
Around 3 months after I saw this they were annexed by Teutonic Order. They DoWed them at once when they became independent. A game would be interesting, but I played around 10 years more so I don't have the save anymore.
