So yeah. Poland and Lithuania being total badasses and kicking ass. It doesn't have to be set in Hussar times - could be anything, really, as long as it's badass and ass kicking.
Bonus for mention of events exposed in the article. Like In 1577 a massive charge of this ultra-heavy cavalry unit smashed a German army from Danzig, blitzing into the teeth of a 12,000 man force and crushing them until all that remained was a well-trampled patch of red where the enemy army once used to be. Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth losses in the battle totaled about 88 men. or At the Battle of Klushino in 1610, the Hussars were outnumbered ten to one, and still somehow came out on top, utterly annihilating an army of 40,000 Swedes and Russians with just 4,000 lancers.
Extra bonus for the Battle of Vienna.
Also, they had big lances. Very big. Make of that what you will.

If no one will fill by two weeks I will! This sounds cool and awesome, well, I knew I want the only one who thought this meme needs to remember the once upon a time Poland and Lithuania were the biggest kickass thing in Europe.
Yet this anon is very afraid to fail because her English might be the best in her class… yet isn't good enough for her taste- and can’t find a beta (because every person she knows that can be her beta isn't into Hetalia or doesn’t want to! T_T)
And if anyone with good English that feel the void in her/his life can be filled by becoming this anon's beta- just say it! I'm desperate!
and, ah, op!anon's first language isn't English either, so don't worry about this. I'd offer to beta for you, but... yeah, I get you'd rather have a native speaker. Still, I really hope you find someone!

Random passerby anon is a native speaker and an English major in college and wouldn't mind beta-ing for you. 8) I'd like to think that I have a good grasp on the language, heh.

Homygawd. That article... is amazing. In multiple ways.
Badass medival!Poland and Liet... YES. Holy crap YES. Battle of Vienna. That is batshit crazy. I ADORE shit like that. Can you say 'Lord of the Rings'? I'm going to use this as an argument for outright terror tactics being the most epic win evar.
*waits eagerly for writer!non to fill* And if there is need for another beta, pick me? *shot*

Hey hey Prussia, their lances were longer than five meters. *Giggles uncontrollably*
Anon feels so privileged to possibly have had Hussar ancestors. She does have Polish and Lithuanian heritage ^__^ I love them so much!
Seconding with the force of however many newtons it takes to get this filled.
