It's people's-democratic. Not exactly the same thing.

Really? What happened to Russia and its her two million soldiers, with thousands of tanks, planes and nukes?

Should have about the same strenght as OTL Polish Army in France, though French weren't particularly fond of creating upper level Polish units. They numbers should be growing as Polish POWs and forced laborers are being liberated and also with Wehrmacht surrendering right and left, the Allies...

If Russia wants to put her fingers in Napoleonic wars it will likely have to her armies marching through Poland - athough at least initially as an ally as Poland would be pushed to take part in anti-Napoleon coalitions (it would be an opportunity to get more reforms done and get some subsidy...

As I understand Russia there's only the first partition after which Poland is left to do as she please, having borders guaranteed by Russia, but Russia takes the lands of 1st and 2nd partition? Given that Russia was the most hated partitioner after the otl first, much more moderate partition I...

He has no claim on PLC throne because it is elective and not hereditiary. He could try his luck in the election and perhaps even win it becoming the first monarch who is Catholic while in Warsaw and Orthodox while in Moscow, perhaps turning Uniate when in travel between his seats.

It's hard to succeed if you leave the initiative to the enemy and do nothing. Striking into the "lost territories" might be successfull or not, standing on Vistula and waiting for Russians could not lead to anything good. But even if Poles successfully defeat, or rather utterly destroy...

Not enough of a dictatorship. And that aside of the fact Poland could not afford it.

Send how many? What about the logistics? You can't just dump people on some beach and sail home for another group. IIRC Poles though they could safely send maybe 1000 families or something like that.

I don't think that, let's say, Germans call themselves "mutes" and that's how slavic nations tend to call them, or feel particularly offended by that.

This is originally from an ASB scenario I though about (November Uprising Poland merged with 1790 Poland to be precise), but it could have happened without supernatural intervention. It's just very unlikely. (WIP, aka where are those Habsburg matches when you need them?) Józef I Poniatowski...
