It is obvious that people abroad
know almost nothing about Belarus.
It is quite surprising to hear Europeans saying that Belarus is small and far. But by
far the most shocking is the label of a sad and grey country hanging on it. Famous
Belarusian hospitality and warm-heartedness are not mentioned. Nevertheless
many foreigners indicate the desire to get to know the country, its history, originality.
Most of them express a will to find out about the Belarusian culture, from the
language to the food and the history. Particularly interesting is the origin of
the country name “Belarus”
and the difference of the nation compared to Russia.
