I listened to this twice. Historian Dominic Lieven engages here in COMPARATIVE HISTORY, distinguishing pre-1917 Russia from other empires, polities, and geographies. He is a specialist in Russian history with a considerable interest in the history of empires be they ancient, medieval or modern. Most interesting for me is Lieven's point that compared to Western European nation-states, both the Ottoman and Russian Empires sealed their fate because they failed to develop a class of people to run a modernising bureaucracy in the 19th century when new ideas and industries were shaping developments elsewhere. He goes on to say that if the Romanov polity survived 1917 he anticipates that it might have evolved into a fascist state in the early 20th century. Lieven's talk illustrates how ill-informed most commentary about Russia remains, as has generally been the case for about 500 years in European and North American commentary.

Muscovy is not Russia, no matter how many times someone would listen to this nonsense.

Excellent. Russian History put into a relative context. I hope that you will post the next segment of the talk. Lieven is a true expert and a depoliticized one. Something that is very rare.

There is no single piece of Russian history in the history of Muscovy (1502-1917) that emerged as a result of The Horde (1243-1502) disintegration and consisted of its former provinces, namely: the Big Horde (1433-1502), the khanate of Kazan (1438-1552), the khanate of Astrakhan (1466-1556), the khanate of Sibir (1468-1598), the Qasim khanate (1452-1681) and the Crimean khanate (1441-1783).
