@The Armchair Historian Make a Video About The Soviet Afghanistan War 1979 - 1989.
Can you please make more videos about India, I know it's hard to explain a part of Indian history without getting hate, but trust me, Indian history is vaaast
Fun fact: Leo Tolstoy was an officer in the Russian Army, and his experiences help to inspire him to write War & Peace.
Also, Tolstoy's experience on the defensive lines of besieged Sevastopol pushed him to publish the couple of stories named "Sevastopol Sketches."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sevastopol_Sketches
Do you know that "мир" translates not only as peace, but as world/society. So many literary critics define "Война и мир" as War&Society, cause it pictures the transormation of russian nobles and nation due to war.

@@Eric-et6se Where are you from if I may ask?
I still find it rather disappointing that theres no mention of the Finnish front in the Crimean war, known as "Åland War", when both the French and the English fleets sailed to the Finnish coasts to conduct naval bombardments and attempt full scale landings using Marines, only to meet stiff resistance from the armed Native Finns and the Russian soldiers who defended the coastal line in a surprisingly effective manner.
It doesn’t reflect well on western powers so you won’t find it here.
halkokarin kahakka!
The Finnish life is a pathway to many abilities some would consider unnatural.
Why did the Finns want to protect the Russians? Shouldn't they have joined the Allies?
@@Adonnus100 This was back in the 1850s, during Tsarist Russia when Finland was just the Grand Duchy of the then Russian Empire. Lets just say we had a mutual understanding of coexistance until the turn of the 1900s when Russification began to take effect. Which luckily failed in the end.

As a medical student, I find the advances that were made in battlefield medicine and nursing to be one of the great silver linings of the Crimean War. From the perspective of medical advancement, those soldiers did not die in vain, as their suffering galvanized Europeans to improve their methods of treating wounded and sick soldiers.

"France takes Algeria from Turkey, and almost every year England annexes another Indian principality: none of this disturbs the balance of power; but when Russia occupies Moldavia and Wallachia, albeit only temporarily, that disturbs the balance of power. France occupies Rome and stays there several years during peacetime: that is nothing; but Russia only thinks of occupying Constantinople, and the peace of Europe is threatened. The English declare war on the Chinese, who have, it seems, offended them: no one has the right to intervene; but Russia is obliged to ask Europe for permission if it quarrels with its neighbor. England threatens Greece to support the false claims of a miserable Jew and burns its fleet: that is a lawful action; but Russia demands a treaty to protect millions of Christians, and that is deemed to strengthen its position in the East at the expense of the balance of power. We can expect nothing from the West but blind hatred and malice... "(comment in the margin by Nicholas I: 'This is the whole point').
- Mikhail Pogodin's memorandum to Nicholas I, 1853
Thats called Western hypocrisy and it has afflicted the world for too long, time for it to end. I'm English. Great quote, thank you.
The Western powers are definitely hypocrites but that just seems like Russia doing whataboutism. Both sucked, everyone sucked, and any talk about « protecting Christians in the East » and other humanitarian reasons are just excuses for their imperialistic expansions. We hear the same talk today with Ukraine and how they want to « purge the nazis ». At least Britain and France lost their spots as major imperialist powers and moved on, Russia on the other hand is still clinging to its former glory.
@@Dazzlefisher possibly, yet the irony is rules for thee, and rules for me. As it played out, the Crimean war occurred and Russia didn't get to expand, then WWI happened and guess what, the Brits and French lost to the then Ottoman Empire at Gallipoli, whereas Russia was then an ally of France and Britain. Illustrates that the Russians had a very good point.
@@bellingdog Oh I agree that their sentiment is completely valid and right, the Crimean war was straight up Western bullshit. I was just noting that Russia wasn’t some poor victim either like they’d want to make it seem that’s all
@@Dazzlefisher ну ничего себе, какой ужас , Россия всего лишь шла освобождать православных славян от гнета турок мусульман, но видимо на этот раз западу, что-то не понравилось, хотя Россия всегда говорила, что она является защитницей христианства на Балканах, видимо запад вспомнил это именно тогда когда захотел.

Plot twist: When Russia lost, it left the Russians to need money for its war & military cost, in Alaska Russia was worried that Britain would take that territory, they also gave it to USA because its distant from Moscow that it would be challenging to manage, the British/Canada would capture Alaska if the Russians didn’t deploy in time, at this point Britain has a strong military all over the globe, and the US owning the place would be a great idea, they know a thing of handling the British. After that in 1959 it would become a state in the US

I loved this video! I would love to see similar documentaries about specific wars and battles- I really like this channel.
its crazy that the Russians fought this war with entirely outdated flintlock rifles (by like 50 years at this point, itd be like using an m14 as your regular rifle in a modern war today). And then less than 40 years later they start production of the Mosin Nagant which still sees service today
also if your ships carrying vital cold weather gear are destroyed because of a snowstorm I think the gear is coming in a bit late

Dare I say you're comparing apples to oranges.
The M14 is still very much a viable weapon today as it was 50 years. It is a self-loading rifle capable of semi or fully automatic fire (though civilian rifles are strictly semi-auto) just as the M16 and its offspring with the only major difference being the calibre it is chambered for.

Russia was very angry of the Habsburg empire because they rejected their call to help them against Great Britain and France. In 1849 Russia's 200 000 strong army saved the Habsburgs from collapsing against the 1848-49 Hungarian revolution. Without the Russian help Austria would had ceased to be an empire, and Hungary would secede as an independent country, as its leader Louis Kossuth wanted.
In april and May 1849 the Hungarian troops scored one victory after another against the Austrian army, liberated Hungary, and the Habsburgs were affraid of being invaded by Hungary. So the emperor went to Warsaw and, according to some, he kissed the tzars hand, to thank for the Russian armies intervention in Hungary. However this act of kissing is not certain, but still the two emperors meeting took place, which was a humiliation for Austria, showing that they were incapable of putting down a revolt by themselves, and that they were forced to ask another country to help them. In June Russia's 200 000 army came to help, so in 13 August 1849 the Hungarian army put down its weapons before the Russian troops. The Austrians wanted to execute the Hungarian army leaders who defeated the mighty Austrian army, instead of them, and, instead of surrendering before an austrian commander, they did this before the Russians, but the Russian tzar, Nicholas I. put the condition to spare the life of general Artúr Görgei, the most talented Hungarian general, who caused so many defeats to the Austrian army, and who was the high commander of the main Hungarian troops who surrendered before the Russians at 13 August. So the Austrians could not take revenge on him, executing instead 13, lower Hungarian generals. But still Franz Joseph could not forgive the tzar that Görgei was spared. So although the Hungarian independence was put down, the Austrians felt humiliated by the fact that they were saved by the Russians, and, the Hungarians chose to surrender before the Russians. The Habsburg emperor Franz Joseph did not forgave the Russians this humiliation.
This is why Austria refused to help Russia in the Crimeean war.
Of course tzar Nicholas himself was angry of the Habsburgs, so their alliance ended here, starting the antipathy which finally led to the I. WW.
By the time of the Crimean conflict the Austrians were almost as bad as the Ottomans for being a paper tiger of a power. The events of '48-'49 only seemed to confirm that view to their neighbours. Had Austria got involved in Russia's favour, an allied-backed independent Hungary would have been an almost inevitable outcome.
In many ways I think it's a shame that didn't happen as it might have solved a lot of geopolitical problems further down the line.
“The most stupid of the Polish kings was Jan Sobieski, and the most stupid of the Russian emperors was me. Sobieski because he saved Austria in 1683, and I because I saved her in 1848.”
Nicholas 1
@@user-ss2ke5qp5s Yes and I, as a Hungarian, I can add, that how stupid was the Hungarian king Ladislaus IV., who helped with his army decissively Rudolf of Habsburg to establish the Habsburg rule in Austria, when he participated with in 1278 in the battle of Dürnkut against Ottokar the II. Without his help Rudolf would had been defeated, and the Habsburg Empire would have not been established, and probably today Austria would be a Czech province. The Habsburgs "thanked" Hungary for helping them to establish their rule over Austria by occupying and oppressing Hungary for 400 years.
Russia always had shitty "allies", which then still schuleg in the back. Therefore, there is a speech at Russians: Russia has only two allies, which are their army and fleet.
@@viktor8395 Well, Russia should have understood that they were seen as dangerous by the majority of the European states and nations. even those whom the Russians thought to be their natural allies, because of being Slavs. So you see that many of the Slavic nations which were helped by Russia to achieve their independence because they were Slavs, or Orthodoxes (Bulgarians, Romanians, Czechoslovakians, etc.), today turn their back on Russia, and ally with the NATO, excepting the Serbians. Instead of finding allies which only showed themselves as such to achieve their goals, then turned their backs, Russia should had search for allies among those people which, in many ways were regarded by the other European nations in the same way as them. And these were the Hungarians. Although we are so big and powerful as Russians, but because of our not Indo European origin, we were and are hated today by them. Today you see that the only country from inside of the EU, which try to stop or diminish the sanctions against Russia, is Hungary. Hungary of course could not stop everything, because is a little country (and is little because of this visceral hatred by the European nations, which thanked to her the stopping of the Mongol, Ottoman invasions against Europe, in which we sacrificed 2/3 of the Hungarian population, by cutting Hungary into pieces at Trianon in 1920, and throwing 3 million Hungarians as national minorities, which are treated in these countries in almost similar ways the Russians are in Ukraine, and in the Baltic states), but still managed to prevent the ban of patriarch Kirill from entering the EU, and the total ban of oil and gas import. With this Hungary won more threats, and more attacks from the EU, which refuses to give Hungary the money they earn to her for the rebuilding loan after Covid. So these two countries should see that their fates are common.

Still I’m looking forward to your game.

Amazing video man.
Idk how u guys post every other week but good job
Love your videos
crazy how the french were by far the most numerous during this war and this guy still manages to completly ignore them the french bashing is incredible
Here's a tissue...
réel. Après The Armchair Historian est un rosbeef tu t'attendais à quoi
The British navy did most of the work in Black Sea and Baltic as that was their strength. The French had the best army
Awesome video on a war I didn’t know much about!
Wow this was an amazing video.
3:21 Nicholas I definitely cared. He, like all tsars, was very pious and saw himself as the protector of all Orthodox Christians. To dismiss that as just a front for geopolitical acquisition is a very ahistorical position whereby you're applying modern, western, secular motives to a place they don't belong.
Yeah, he protected orthodox Christians...Russian Orthodox anyway.
Still very surprised by the fact there is not a single mention of the battle of Malakoff, bloodiest and most decisive battle of the war, directly causing the capture of Sevastopol (whereas the Alma, Balaclava, Inkerman and Eupatoria are all mentioned).
Not being egocentric is too difficult for the english, espacially toward the french.

It's true that when you look at the armchair historian's videos about the French military, the only video about a French military success he made out of close to a dozen videos doesn't even mention once the battle of Malakoff, greatest battle of the entire Crimean War. His video on the War of the Spanish Succession also implies that the French lost every military encounter and were only able to obtain a honourable peace thanks to diplomacy. LOL.
The rest of the videos are :
How did Prussia end the French Empire?
Why was France so ineffective in WW2?
France's worst defeat in Vietnam.
Etc.
Even the only video he made about Napoléon was a defeat.
I kinda see a pattern.
@The Death Star It's just an observation.
@@alexceltic755502 it’s rather ironic, you cry about egos because France’s little battle wasn’t mentioned.
@@lahire4943 suggest you make your own videos and documentaries to satisfy your own egotistical, French nationalism instead of being a Fragile Frenchman.
There’s a reason the French have a stereotype and you’re projecting it right now.
thanks for making this video. i really dont know much about the crimean war.
these videos are the best. so looking forward to the game.
Hey Armchair would you ever consider a video on Black Hawk Down and Battle of Mogadishu?
That's a good idea, I believe he should do either those or the entire UN involvement in Somalia
He probably won't because those topics would likely be demonetized

I hate Russia. British is better 😎
The Crimean War showed the enormous shortcomings of the armies of the time... especially in the logistical and medical aspects. Were it not for France, the war would have been a catastrophe for Russia's enemies.
Outstanding my dear Sir.
Интересный факт: монахи Соловецкого монастыря разгромили англо-французскую эскадру. А жители Петропавловск-Камчатского добили армию превышающую русскую в 3 раза
Ну будем честны соловец был только на половину монастыре, а на вторую половину вполне себе крепость и каторга. А Петропавловске камчатск никого не добивал, они прямо они бились с полным контингент ом англичан. Была ещё попытка десанта в Владивосток, но они приплыли посмотрели на крепость с 52фунтовыми пушками и уплыли
@@ayaalfedorov ну так любой монастырь крепостью можно назвать: Троице Сергеева лавра во время смуты сдерживала наступление польских войск, Спасо-Ефимиев монастырь защищал Москву от татаро-монгол. Да и чем монастырь не крепость: высокие крепкие стены, достаточное количество запасов. Вот только защитниками этой "крепости" ( если мы разбираем случай Соловецкого монастыря в годы крымской войны) являлись монахи, и основной подвиг заключался в том, что не обученные военному делу люди, давшие клятву не брать в руки оружия сумели победить эскадру "морских держав" тем самым не дав им пройти к Архангельску, цели их военной компании
Okey, say in English

I love how you started representing mid 1800s russian soldiers with pickelhaube helmets. Now people will know the truth about this helmet, and stop linking it only to Germany
why did they wear those helmets anyway?
@@entityaccount3876 style
In my opinion, the Imperial Russian Army look much cooler with peaked cap rather than pickelhaube style helmet, either because i have long associated pickelhaube with Germany or peaked cap just look much cooler

Good stuff ! Congratulations!
The moment that game comes out im buying it. It looks awesome and I'd love to support the channel.
