Depends which is your native language for somebody who speaks another Slavic language(e.g Russian or Czech) as her/his native. Polish is not hard to learn, for anybody else it is hard, not impossible but still hard.
There are many words that have the phrase 'non' in them. Some of the words include nonsense, nonetheless and nonfiction.
Yes and no. Slavic languages are a rather tight-knit group, so any two Slavic languages exhibit a non-trivial extent of mutual intelligibility. The grammatical rules and principles are so similar that you at least know which word is a verb, a noun or an adjective, and if you pick up the meanings of those words that are different, you will be able to make a lot of sense of the other language while not able to say anything grammatical of it. An important aspect of this mutual intelligibility is exposure. Almost all Ukrainians understand Russian because they have either been forced to learn it or at least exposed to it. On the other hand, Russians usually have a lot less exposure to Ukrainian (although it must be pointed out that a typical Russian novel about the Second World War includes a lot of Russian-Ukrainian or Russian-Belarusian mixed slang, because war was fought largely in Ukraine and Belarus, and authentic front atmosphere in literature involves at least some language mixing). Ukrainian and Belarusian are originally - note: originally - more closely related to Russian than to other Slavic languages. However, due to different influences Russian is the odd man out. Russian written language is essentially a mixture of two distinct languages: Old Bulgarian (ie Church Slavic) and original demotic Russian. Church Slavic was for Russian what Latin was for Western languages: the language of the church and ecclesiastical civilization. It is very typical of Russian to have two different but obviously related words, one from demotic Russian and one from Church Slavic, which even have related meanings, but the Church Slavic has a more abstract meaning. Typically, the original demotic Russian word golova means just "head" in Russian, but the Church Slavic glava is the head of a state or a church, or a chapter (cf. "heading") in a book. Both Ukrainian and Belarusian have much less Church Slavic words and much more similarities to Polish.

Yes, Russia is a relatively common name in some cultures, particularly in Eastern Europe and among Slavic-speaking populations. It is often used as a given name or surname.

Pan-Slavism aimed to unite all Slavic peoples, promoting their cultural and political solidarity. It sought to foster a sense of shared identity and heritage among Slavic nations, which were often under the influence or control of non-Slavic powers. The movement gained momentum in the 19th century, particularly as a response to nationalism and imperialism in Europe. Ultimately, Pan-Slavism aspired to achieve political autonomy and cooperation among Slavic states.
Cyrillic writing is an alphabetic script used for various Slavic languages, including Russian, Bulgarian, and Serbian, as well as some non-Slavic languages. It was developed in the 9th century and is attributed to the disciples of Saints Cyril and Methodius, who sought to create a written system for the Slavic peoples. The script features a combination of letters derived from Greek and some additional characters to represent specific Slavic sounds. Today, it consists of around 30 letters, with variations existing for different languages.
