- Russia's turbulent history shows a series of devastating wars and merciless rulers. From the rise of the Bolsheviks to Stalin's deadly purges - power and violence shaped Russia and the Soviet Union for decades.
1917 marked a turning point when Lenin and the Bolsheviks seized power by force in the October Revolution. The chaos led to a civil war in which Trotsky founded and brutally formed the Red Army. Stalin later establishes a cruel rule characterized by famines such as the Holodomor and massive purges. The Second World War brings new challenges as the Red Army fights against Nazi Germany and eventually takes Berlin. After the war, the Soviet Union remains a global superpower, embroiled in proxy wars and the Cold War, before suffering a humiliating defeat in the Afghan War and finally collapsing.

Up until a few weeks ago I had a Russian made Mosin Nagant made in 1937 at the Tula Arms Works. It was most definitely used in the Purges because it actually had notches carved into the rifle butt, 27 in all. I can only guess that it belonged to an NKVD soldier.
What happened to it?
@@justinrichardson4456he got caught by the kgb
@@justinrichardson4456 I sold it to buddy of mine for $400 so I could pay for a new water heater when my old one went out.
It could also have been used in WW2
I have one. It's stamped 1941.
How do they not bring up the Soviet/Latin American invasion of the United States in 1984? That was probably the most important event that caused the collapse of the Soviet Union and they don't even mention it once. Well, the US remembers, and we celebrate the sacrifice of those brave kids in Colorado every year.
"WOLVERINES!!"
Everyone knows Patrick Swayze and Charlie Sheen single handedly took down the Soviet Union.
What an illustrious and beautiful history
I find it amazing that this documentary is presented by Germans . I looked at their faces when they mentioned Reichstag building, the Germans that's fought in Stalingrad , and other mentions . You can see a glimpse of nervosity
Excellent. Thank You
Factually illuminating video essay -- one that touches (Hooray for heroic women) and saddens a heart. Taken away is not so much a sense of enlightenment but undoubtedly an increased insight. The candid and gritty presentation of recent history educates and (ironically) entertains.
Thank You. ❤
Thank you for this excellent documentary, thank you!
Very good documentary on the Soviet Union. And its demise. Thank you for sharing! 💯👊👍
The sixth army not the fifth 😮
😂
Interesting video.
Great Thank's.
Stalin & Truth...
SPrangER.
He said war and prostitution are both professions better undertaken by amateurs? 😅 well then that's him written off as a beacon of enlightenment right away 😅
Trotsky had blood in his hands as well. But not to the level of the tyrant stalin.
Also, it cannot be denied that under his leadership, the Red Army successfully repelled its internal and external enemies
What the he'll is that at the 34 minute 19 second frame?
During de-Stalinization, Khrushchev should have posthumously promoted Trotsky to Marshal of the Soviet Union and awarded him Hero of the Soviet Union.
The Battle for Moscow WAS the Battle that changed the morale and confidence while Stalingrad cemented it and was the furthest East the Germans ever got! Why look at the Soviet Losses in WWII in this documentary? Russia in all its iterations have ALWAYS fought by just throwing meat waves at their enemies because of its huge population vs their enemies. They lost horrendous numbers in the Crimean War, WWI, the Civil War, WWII and today’s Russo-Ukrainian War. Russia is fighting today’s war with the very same meat grinder as they always have! It’s Zhukov’s plans over and over. followed by massive artillery barrages until the city is destroyed and then houses to house fighting in the mopping up.

Verdicts previously decided
25:42 Notice the Austrian insignia on the helmet.
Though, the Austrians keep claiming that they never been Nazis. 🙂
Hypocrites!!
The guy in German on the background is disturbing
36:08 February? who wrote this script lmao
im seeing what happened that month...Ecuador declared war on germany and japan lolen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_World_War_II_(1945%E2%80%931991)
trotsky was murdered by an ice axe i thought?
Who the hell is he? Oh, you mean Lev Bronstein.
Never mind
@@drbrainstein1644 yea him lol
It was an ice-pick.
6th army
2:58...WTF? Tell me that's not real.. Tell me the guy was punking his comrades by slapping a corn husk on his face....

We need a Stahlin in the the canadian parlament
Why?
@@xxvxxv5588Trudeau invited one of Hitler’s SS men to parliament and honored him as a hero.
@@user-ut5iv7qt6u
Stalin and his surroundings commited much more crimes against Ukrainians than Ukrainians from SS or all right wing Ukrainians in general. Do you just hate ethnic Ukrainians?
@@user-ut5iv7qt6u
Not a real problem. It's better to talk about crimes against Ukrainians committed by Russian supremacists in occupied Ukraine. Reminder that not just Putin but also Stalin responsible for genocide of Ukrainian people. There are many people with deeply anti-ukrainian way of thinking.
@@user-ut5iv7qt6u
Is this a real problem compared with what Russia is doing now in occupied Ukraine?
Shall I ask a question ? If it is a video about criminals where is video about president Bush junior and Macarthur?
A US president can't go to war without congressional approval (Unless your name is Obama)! Democrats controlled both houses and voted overwhelmingly in favor for the war!! Nice try though

Nobody except idiots
There is a russian novel where a kulak is laying in the street dying of starvation and the local communist official walks by. The kulak asks him if this was all because i owned 2 horses? The official replies yes it was.
