From this video one could think that Russia conquered Crimea just to get access to the Black sea, however the author didn't mention that the south of Russia had suffered from raids of the Crimean Tatars for decades before the annexation of the Crimea. Thousands of people had been captured and sold to the Ottoman Empire and countless villages and towns had been burnt in those raids. So, defeating the Crimean Khanate was not only the matter of expansion but also the matter of securing the southern borders
I'm Russian and I confirm that! Absolutely true! Thank you, stranger :)
Anyway, it doesn't have any influence on the current political events. That's just the history.
I had read it was over hundreds of years and millions of slavs had been sold as slaves through the Muslim world.. it was referred to as the culling of the steppes? I could be way off, I read about it probably 2 decades ago.

No not really

@@vve5174 Fun fact: Did you know that homework was actually first used as a punishment?
@Dr. Doofenshmirtz the guys isnt joking. dont try to make an excuse for it. people actually believe youtube videos teach them more then years in school
this video has so much detail in only 22 minutes it feels like an hour, it's breathtaking.... the russian perspective really helps me understand europe more
Omg this is fascinating,took World History in my high school days ,it would be better then if we had this kind of learning
you meant yay part of Eastern Europe w?Russia
it is not detail at all, this video more like introduction
The video is very superficial. The events are simply listed, and the author does not answer questions about the connection between these events and the needs of Russia. About Ivan the Terrible - nothing at all, except that he was paranoid. Is the author a psychiatrist to diagnose? And the nickname itself -
Ivan the Terrible is wrong. His nickname is closer to Thunderstorm, not horror. It is not said why he fought with the feudal lords. It is not said about the military, judicial and other reforms that strengthened Russia. Even the version that Ivan killed his son is only a version that has no evidence, but some present it as a fact. So those who want to know the history should not take such videos as a textbook.
@@evelynantonio4462 Interesting these historical stories on the internet are so valuable. I study WW2, the Third Reich, the Nazis, the technology developed during that war is poorly covered in school. I was fascinated by WW2 during two days in history class where we saw two films (as in real films shown on a projector) about WW2. Reading books by Joseph P. Farrell, for example, and all the videos on WW2 and Hitler really bring reality to recent 19th and 20th century history.
“The Baltic Fleet, after several months of navigation, is defeated by the Japanese Fleet.”
Oh boy, that’s a whole story in itself.
Yeah all for nothing. Hope they had a nice trip seeing half the world tho.
In WW1 the Germans had a Pacific fleet and they had some initial success engaging the British off the coast of Chile. Then they rounded the Cape and engaged some more British ships off Argentina and got completely annihilated. Every last ship sunk, no survivors.
the whole story is the baltic fleet was sabotaged by english spions

4:36 Peter the Great admiring and wanting to emulate the Dutch Republic provides one possible explanation why the Russian tricolor flag is (apparently) based on the Dutch
When France became a republic they also adapted the Dutch flag by turning it on its side... although the French never admitted they did that and pretended they came up with their tricolour on their own.
It's not really like this. Despite really unclear early history of Russian flag red, blue and white was a main colors of Russian flag at least since 1667-1668 when father of Peter The Great still was the ruler of Russia. The first documented moment of this three colors being in use refers to the first Russian navy ship called Oryol (Eagle) which was built in 1667 for protection of trading ships in Caspian sea. And it's unclear in which order or in which shape the colors were but according to receipt books cloth of red, blue and white was used. It's unknown why these colors was used but it's a theory that they was using the red, blue and white cloths because it was the only available colors in the town (Dedinovo) where they was building the ship cuz it was colors of city's flag. I failed to finding the flag of town because nowadays it's this ship (Oryol) portrayed on the flag of Dedinovo. Also it is theory that even before this The Dutch Republic gifted a ship to Russia and since Russia never had ships before sailors just switched colors of the Dutch flag (but this is one of the most obscure theories). Later in 1694 it was documented that it was stripes with gold two-headed eagle (coat of arms of tsar of Moscow, basically the coat of arms of Romanov dynasty). In 1710 Peter The Great presented new flag for Russian navy (white field with blue saltire) and tricolor (white, blue, red stripes) became a flag of trading fleet.
So Russian started to use white, blue and red before Peter The Great came to power but Peter definitely finished the establishment of these colors as main ones.

It’s weird how little of Russian history I know compared to French or German history. Great video as always.
As someone who was brought up in the UK, I agree with you. Large sections of history were omitted, and in fact were actually misleading through omission. I would not say weird however. As I grow older, and understand more of the world, and become more cynical, this is exactly as expected. The UK education system (presumably like all others in the world?) weights the syllabus to that of it's own interests. For example, when taught about WW2, the "Eastern Front" was taught as a side-show of the war in Europe, not the main event due to politics as this was the time of the Cold War still. This is a shame because over inflating the real British sacrifices made during the War, lessens them. History should be history, but it is often revised for political gain.
@@DeDyson The truth can't be hidden forever. Everything happend will be known sooner or later.
@@DeDyson you’re right. Therefore in British schools you will never receive information that more than 500 Nazi divisions were annihilate on the East front by the Red Army compared to more than 100 destroyed by Britain and US. Now make your own conclusion, whose role was more decisive in crashing of the Third Reich.
That's because in western schools chose not to teach kids. I remember when i was in school, we had to skip the part with the Russian Revolution and jump to the French Revolution, cause we were "running out of time" and had to cover all "key points".
@@DeDyson Yes, the Soviet Union single-handedly destroyed 80% of the German army - 6 times more than the USA, Great Britain and France. But the Cold War is over, and they still don't teach it in your schools.
“With the Russian Empire teetering on the brink of collapse, the tsarist regime responded to the crises with its usual incompetence and obstinacy. The basic problem was that Nicholas himself remained totally oblivious to the extremity of the situation. While the country sank deeper into chaos he continued to fill his diary with terse and trivial notes on the weather, the company at tea and the number of birds he had shot that day. When Bulygin suggested that political concessions might be needed to calm the country, Nicholas was taken aback and told the Minister: 'One would think you are afraid a revolution will break out.' 'Your majesty,' came the reply, 'the revolution has already begun.”

Russian forces were in Denmark in 1716, Rhine in 1735 and 1748. Russian forces in Netherlands 1799 and Naples in 1806. The Persian war of 1722 led by Peter the Great and 1796 were also missing.

"When I was in Moscow in the 90s, a Russian general explained to UK officials that Russia had never in its history fought a war of aggresion. Its territory had grown as a result of Moscow defending itself."
Cool story bro
It is like explaining how NATO is a defensive Alliance, while constantly invading other countries and growing in size
A fine irony. I have read something similar about Napoleon: he sought complete security for revolutionary France, but each victory and expansion made the French less secure, so they continued expanding aggressively in (pre-emptive) self-defence.

Fascinating to see the fluidity of borders over time condensed to 14 minutes, continuing seemingly in slo-mo even today. Humans are a rowdy bunch ! Thanks for the perspective.
It’s important to learn about these wars from a global perspective because that’s how they happen. Instead of being taught about one isolated battle at a time. Nothing happens in a vacuum. When we see why things happen the way they did, it all makes more sense. Well, as much sense as war can make, that is.
I can't wait to find out what happens in the next episode!

to this day i was looking for Russian history. no English channel had ever explained as you did. let alone be print media or any form of material. how did you get access to such a gold mine....thank you a zillion times
Very well explained. Much appreciated.
Very interesting. Note strikes that broke out in 1905 lead to the establishment of the Soviets (workers Councils). The czar was forced to set up the Dumas (Parliament) as a byproduct of this strike movement and the establishment of the soviets. The leader the worker Council was a guy named Leon Trotsky, he was sent to siberia after the defeat of the strike movement. He escape and fast forward he opposed the first world war and then organised the 1917 october revolution.
1905 and 1917 both very big historic events in Russian history.
There are big but one if the worst events in russian history

Russia, the only country to have rivalries with Germany, Iran, Sweden, the Ottomans, China, Poland, France, and Japan. Normally, those countries would have nothing to do with each other, but they all had issues with Russia at some point.

That land is useless unless you need natural resources for the industry. The development of the industry was hindered by the fact that it is too cold to build and maintain factories. That is how Russia ended up having a weak industry despite having a lot of natural resources.

they ruled by the same technology as the Tatars once ruled Ancient Russia: they concluded agreements with the princes of local tribes, supporting one against the other, They themselves collected tribute for Moscow. Plus small military garrisons for order, plus trading posts
@@nika6184 you're kidding, Kazan and Ekaterinburg alone are much cooler than Moscow and St Petersburg
Any Russian will testify that they don't manage it :P.
More serious answer: at least until the USSR, it was the standard way, where every region has its own leader, who in turn report to the tsar. As long as the region likes its leader and that leader likes the tsar, all is well. It's how feudalism did it, and similar to how federalism solves it.
Additionally it may be huge, but most is wasteland. Such regions can't really rebel effectively even if they wanted to, there's litlle there to invade for, and government tends to have limited influence in those far reaches anyway. Same way it's manageable for other huge wasteland countries like the US, China's inlands, Canadia and Denmark.

The Japanese didn't dominate in the Russo-Japanese war. The _Navy_ achieved its upset victory at Tsushima, but the Imperial Japanese Army paid dearly with heavy casualties for its victory
Yes but they still pushed the Russians back in Manchuria and Sakhalin
Just before this fact, you need to know one more thing. Before this war, Japan was considered among the countries of the third world, unable to repulse any European country. Japan has proven otherwise.
@@colombus4400 I am well aware of that. It was a huge deal at the time that an Asian power had defeated a European Empire in a straight-up fight. The point is simply that to describe it as "dominating" is inaccurate. It was a very hard-fought, costly victory for the Japanese land forces, and that's one of the main reasons why the Japanese Navy emerged from the war with a much better reputation than the army.
The same argument could be made for the Soviets in WW2 who by far had the most casualties.
Pretty sure they won almost all the battles
First Real Slavic Empire in the Word!!!
One edit. On Balkans first uprise was Serbian, and second also. Greek uprising is third.
On both, first and second Serbian uprising, what we also use to call revolution, we have big support of Russia.
the first uprise was was made by the independent Albanian pashas from the Ali pasha of ionaninna and others there was no greece and serbia at that time...in reality the so-called Greek war of independence it was a religious civil war between Albanians...practically between Arvanites vs Albanians of egypt and Suliotes vs Ali pasha of ioannina ..
modern egypt was also created by the albanians.. and when the albanian Mehmet Ali of Egypt after the battle of nizip wanted to invade istanbul that empire was saved by the russians and other european powers except france
There was also a Romanian uprising in 1821, in the same time with the Greek one.
@@Flankerski Yes, i know that. Wr had it in 1804-1815, then second uprise, or freedom revolution in 1815-1817.
Здравствуй, сестра! Русские и сербы братья навек!
As a student of imperial Russia, I find this fascinating.
This explains so much
Wow I think one never really appreciates how often Europe was at war !
они не воевали..так мелкие недоразумения
It appears that Europe has had more wars than the rest of the world combined.
20:19 When the whole map is correct except for Bulgaria. It lost all of Dobrudja to Romania in the Second Balkan War but had access to the Aegean Sea
What about too big Montenegro?
What about southern Tyrol?
@@CYbeRuKRaINiaN It is just unaccurately drawn but you know it's meant to represent the Austrian ownership of Southern Tyrol, while in Bulgaria's case a modern map was just copy-pasted and inserted into the video
Yeah, but somehow that's not even relevant. Romania returned southern Dobrogea to Bulgaria after WWII anyway.
@@Flankerski Yes but Bulgarian access to the Aegean sea really had a role in maritime trade and strategic interests, independent of tarrifs that could be placed by the Ottoman Empire and leaves the possibilities of Bulgaria being isolated navally by the Ottomans very unlikely.
I love this channel
"WW1 started because some guy got assassinated" come on dude.., tyrannies and invasions always are done under some pretext. The real reasons are usually more complex, intricate, many times boil to either greed, some kind of self preservation or other ambitions.
Technically it started due to England putting economic sanctions on Germany. Germany used Arch Duke Ferdinand assassination as the excuse to go to war. Sanctions do have consequences. In the sacrifices of much blood on the battlefield.
@@blackwidowsm Ye I've seen that side of things too. Apparently Germany was going to overtake UK, so they did everything to stop them.
@@blackwidowsm Basically it was a pointless war that was only started for money and power.
Millions losing their life so the people in charge got rich, and the people that spoke out got put in prison too.
And to think of weren't greedy WW2 would never have happened.
@@GCAbleism158 only if WW1 didnt happen. WW2 was more of a continuation after a truce
Hugely informative video which tends to educate ignorants like me! Its so incorrect and ignorant for most people to view European countries versus Russia through the brief lens period of WW1 & 2.
Nice!
Yes!
Do u love Spain?
You should do a video like this but on the history of Germany
The video is fine but it paints the steppe nomads and tribes as innocent victims of russian imperialism
Even before russia was a thing, the early slavs were constantly raided by the nomads. The pechenegs, khazars, alans, bolghars, cumans, turks and many others raided nonstop the russian countryside and towns, even taking slavs as slaves. And that's only before the mongols... The russian expansion into the eurasian steppes was not imperialism, it was to secure their borders and their own people.
I'm Caucasian, and I'm ashamed to read it. The Alans are not nomads. These are modern Chechens, Ossetians, Ingush and Balkars.
@@Vasyapupkin-ks8fq The Alans were in ancient and early medieval times nomads, they were part of scythia as well. Yes, they are the modern chechens, ossetians, and others, due to proximity to georgia, armenia and byzantium they eventually feudalized, but they were pastoralist nomads in their origins.
That's still imperialism?
@@endaohalloran6649 eh, no, it isn't. It's retaliation and self defence. One could argue that they took it too far and that at some point the mentality shifted, sure. But the main reason for russian expansion was to protect themselves from a very real and active threat.
You clearly don't know what you are talking about.
