Crimea was first settled by the Greeks 2000 years ago and then by the Byzantine empire and then controlled by Venetians through till medieval times. It was then Conquered by the Mongols, then mostly settled by Crimean Tatars in the sphere of Ottoman influence. It was then annexed by the Russians in the 1700s. The Ukrainian population of the peninsula has never been over 25%. It's been Russian dominated since 1900s when the Russian population outgrew the Crimean Tatars. This is why the majority of the population want to be part of Russia. For anyone to think Crimea belongs to Ukraine is totally ignorant of history.

Giving out Crimea to Ukraine was a terrible mistake that Khrushchev did. At that time Ukraine was a part of the Soviet Union and nobody thought the USSR is going to collapse.

The Islamic region has been a unified powerful empire since 600AD with the Rashidun caliphate, the Umayyad Dynasty, the Abbasid Dynasty, and the Ottoman empire. The reason Iraq is a failed state was because the objective of the American Invasion was to destroy Iraq. In other words, their mission was a success. Before the American invasion, and this is as recently as my father's life time, when our parents went to Iraq, there were literally zero sectarian tensions between Iraqi Sunnis and Shias. They married into each other's families, both served in the police and military, both were equal citizens. The American invasion caused the civil war and the subsequent sectarian blood bath.

If you invade, occupy, destroy, dismantle, sanction, blockade countries, they end up in a very dire state. The Middle East didn't just magically become what it is today. It was the British Empire and the French that turned the Ottoman Empire into 22 different war torn countries through sabotage, infiltration, military interference, occupation, and installment of corrupt dictatorships and monarchs.
