Unia (Greek Catholic) Church still exists in Belarus and Ukraine. After the division of Rzhech Pospolita, Belarus became a part of Russian Empire and Unia Church was prosecuted and repressed in its own turn by Orthodox believers.

Creation of Unia added to the history of social unrests in Belarus and Ukraine despite it's initial purpose to unite people.
