Belarusian People's Republic in belarusian : Беларуская Народная Рэспубліка, eng. transliteration : Belaruskaya Narodnaya Republika. Wrongly translated as "Belarusian National Republic" , because national in belarusian is Националная.
Wikipedia contributor Kuban coSSack's talking about dictatorial ruler Lukashenka (who massively and monstrously falsified the vote) and today's storming of the October square, when hundreds of special police arrested peaceful demonstrators, totally destoryed the camp, threw empty vodka bottles into the mess and videotaped that for Belarusan state television. Here's Kuban coSSack's comment about this police action and break-up of a peaceful protest, which took place at 3AM so that there would be no witnesses of their activity:
Dear fellow Wikipedians, do you understand that the only purpose of his contributions on articles about Belarus (such as Belarusian language, Belarusian history, Belarus, etc.) is to push Russian imperial POV and lies? Please, see history and talk pages of the Belarus-related articles. --rydel 16:33, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Armed forces are not a legal requirement for nationhood, as the article implies -- else Costa Rica would not be a country. --Daniel C. Boyer 20:08, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Similar governments-in-exile of the neighboring countries (Lithuania, Poland and others) handed back their symbolic "authorities" to the corresponding independent governments in the 1990s, after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The BNR council has not done this because it views the current Belarusian government of president Alexander Lukashenka as an anti-Belarusian, anti-independence, and an anti-democratic power."
What happened in 1990–1991 was exactly what the government of BNR in exile was longing for. (The authoritarian regime of Lukashenko was established only in 1995) So this does not explain why they didn't hand back their authorities to the new Belarusian government in 1991–1995. — Glebchik (talk) 16:51, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The article states that the government is still in exile, so wouldn't it still exist, even if only de jure?--CafeDelKevin (talk) 02:23, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I had to replace the introduction to the article, because almost every sentence of it was incorrect. The BPR itself was proclaimed on 9 March 1918, not on 25 March, when it declared independence. It had several diplomatic missions, not only the one in Berlin (and the source to this claim says nothing about the Berlin mission being the only one), and the mission in Riga is even mentioned in the article itself. The SSR of Byelorussia was founded on 1 January 1919 in Smolensk, not Minsk. The government in exile wasn't formed "two years later abroad", it was the same old government of the BPR that continued its work in Vilnius and then moved between different European cities, becoming more of a political organisation than a real government. Its independence didn't correspond to the Brest-Litovsk treaty, nor was its demise connected with the fall of Minsk to the Soviets. Svawald (talk) 17:55, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The Belarusian People's Republic (Belarusian: Белару́ская Наро́дная Рэспу́бліка, [bʲeɫaˈruskaja naˈrodnaja rɛsˈpublʲika], transliteratedasBielaruskaja Narodnaja Respublika, BNR),[1] historically referred to as the White Ruthenian Democratic Republic (German: Weißruthenische Volksrepublik;[2]) was a failed attempt to create a Belarusian state on the territory controlled by the German Imperial Army during World War I. The BNR existed in 1918-1919.
The BNR was declared on March 9, 1918 in Minsk[3], and two weeks later, on March 25, 1918 it was proclaimed independent[4]. In 1919 it co-existed with an alternative Communist government of Belarus (the Socialist Soviet Republic of Byelorussia, which later became part of the Lithuanian–Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic), moving its seat of government to Vilno and Hrodna[5], but ceased to exist due to the capture of the whole Belarusian territory by the Polish and the Bolshevik forces during the Polish–Soviet War[6]. Currently, its government in exile, the Rada (Council) of the Belarusian People's Republic is the oldest still existing.

Belarusian People's Republic → Belarusian Democratic Republic – The current name, Belarusian People's Republic, is of limited use in scholarly and popular literature. It does not appear in the titles of publications, judging by Google Scholar. It does not appear in book titles either. The Belarusian Democratic Republic name has a significantly wider use, incl. in scholarly literature and in literature originating in Belarus and in the Belarusian diaspora. It is also used by the Rada of BNR, the body claiming the mandate of the original Republic’s government. Note: the 2013 discussion about renaming the page for the Belarusian National Republic was inconclusive, the request was rejected. Nieszczarda2 (talk) 05:03, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest we rename this page to Belarusian People’s Republic because it is the correct translation of “Bielaruskaja Narodnaja Respublika”. Narodnaja doesn’t mean “Democratic”. Oh, and Translate says that “Belarusian Democratic Republic” means “Bielaruskaja Narodnaja Respublika”, probably because of wikipedia. I still support the change to Belarusian People’s Republic.
