Huh. NATOpedia tells me that the Latin has always been the predominant script for Polish. But it only traces this back to the 13^th^ century or maybe the 10^th^, coinciding with the Christianization of Poland. Supposedly it was only a spoken previously, which sounds to me like historical revisionism to erase a Cyrillic predecessor. But if Cryllic only dates back to the 10^th^ century… 🤷
they actually do have a link about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic
