For Romania: 1859-1945. The period with the highest progress. Reforms, constructions, culture etc.
And I agree with d29: now we start to see a new period like this.
BTW: is strange, but somehow normal in a weird way for balkans and EE to regard their historical peak as the point wher they rule the next country.
Even if it was just some moments.hno: :bash:

hno: :bash:I hadn't realized this thread was about when the size of one's country was "the biggest" but about quality of life. I'm actually willing to hand you some counties out of Romania if that'll make me live better.
And although Romanians might say that the period between the World Wars was the best because in relative terms we were actually above average in Europe, in absolute terms this is it.

Hmmm, hard question...
I have three variants: now, 19th century, 9-10th century.
Probably 19th century is best after all.

Good picture of Kiev, thought i don't understand why Oleg of Novgorod decided to move capital of the ancient russian state there, after conquering it. There is nothing but pigs. I guess Oleg liked pigs.The center of Russian capital in 9-10th centuries

Polish golden age
Polish Golden Age refers to the times from 15th century Jagiellon Poland to mid-17th century, when in 1648 the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was ravaged by the Chmielnicki Uprising and The Deluge and the Golden Age ended.
The sixteenth century was perhaps the most illustrious phase of Polish cultural history. During this period, Poland-Lithuania drew great artistic inspiration from the Italians, with whom the Jagiellon court cultivated close relations. Styles and tastes characteristic of the late Renaissance were imported from the Italian states. These influences survived in the renowned period architecture of Kraków, which served as the royal capital until that distinction passed to Warsaw in 1611. The University of Kraków gained international recognition as a cosmopolitan center of learning, and in 1543 its most illustrious student, Nicolaus Copernicus (Mikolaj Kopernik), literally revolutionized the science of astronomy.
The period also bore the fruit of a mature Polish literature, once again modeled after the fashion of the West European Renaissance. The talented dilettante Mikolaj Rej was the first major Polish writer to employ the vernacular, but the elegant classicist Jan Kochanowski (1530-1584) is acknowledged as the genius of the age. Accomplished in several genres and equally adept in Polish and Latin, Kochanowski is widely regarded as the finest Slavic poet before the nineteenth century.
