The First Russian Parliament and Constitution | The Duma (1906-1917)

[@HoH]

This is the last (political) history video about Russia for a while. I am very excited about the series I have planned from next week onward! It is definitely the largest project I have worked on for this channel so far and is about a country that has a history just as rich, captivating and tragic (at times) as Russia. If that sounds interesting make sure you subscribe and check back next week!

Your work is just amazing, I wish I had more time to binge-watch everything like there´s no tomorrow. You just became one of the reasons for why i wanna end my exams as fast as possible

[@HoH]

Good luck with your exams! The videos will stay here for when you’re done 😉

[@RalphBrooker-gn9iv]

Thank you for this. I’ve often struggled to appraise the Dumas one way of the other. Although dealing with unusually condensed time frames, Solzhenitsyn’s *Red* *Wheel* in particular *March* *1917* paints the Duma and the last Duma respectively in a very negative almost comical light. He also claims, referring to the fourth, that it had no legislative power either in principle or in practice.

This is like a finale of a great 4-episodes mini-series about the crisis of the Russian Empire, that in many ways was a prelude for the future Revolution.

[@HoH]

That is exactly what I meant for these 4 episodes to be. Happy to hear you enjoyed them and found them interesting!

[@jon82489]

The Revolution happened in 1919 when the Bolshivecks won

As usual, incredible work, but not as incredible as the fucking beard (mustache?) of the man what a profile picture! Facial hair was wild back then. Sad that you're done with Russia for the moment but I look forward to learning about other topics, too.

[@HoH]

Your no shave November goal this year? Was the quality this video noticeably worse than the last one by the way? I felt this was watch-able, although next Friday it will be like last week again!

[@RobinDavey-ge8vn]

That quote from Kokovtsov “thank god we still do not have a parliament” is really interesting, do you have a source for it? I can’t find in anywhere

[@allie9312]

I'm on lockdown from Corona virus currently and my professor has not been able to upload video lectures. Your videos have been very helpful to me during this hard time, thank you

[@HoH]

Glad they are of some help. Stay safe & healthy, Alli!

[@GeorgeHancox]

Great video, could you perhaps make one on the War of the Roses

[@HoH]

Very complex war. It is not on the shortlist, though I have been meaning to delve into it. I believe Feature History has a good video on it as well. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@jrap97]

Thanks!

[@Snidel]

The content is great but please fix the camera focus...

[@HoH]

Unfortunately a good camera is too expensive at the moment, but I am playing around with the settings. Hopefully next week will be improved - hope you’ll check it out and leave feedback again. Glad you like the content!

[@Snidel]

@@HoH I will, I'm subbed, btw where are you exactly from?

[@pietersteenkamp5241]

@@Snidel I think you can start with a little donation for that new camera!

[@brendenoneill3068]

You should do a video about Alexander Kerensky the leader of Russia Provisional Government 1917. he was a leader that tried to make Russia more democratic between the two 1917 Revolutions.

“I have seen my share of war and politics and learned to detest Republics; nothing is free from this many headed monster’s grasp. It has no affection for its subjects; it devours your property and happiness. A king may act wrongly because he has been ill-advised but a knot of villains support each other and together they will do what no single man would dare to do on his own.” ___Lord Admiral Horario Nelson.

Eventually Russia would have a constitutional order without WWI.

Why do you look like Elon Musk??

[@billrich9722]

Your bauble-heading is making me motion sick. Nice information, though.
