There's another angle in this that's not often mentioned: The Russian peasants were mostly Slavic by ethnicity, but the Tsar's family and most of the Russian aristocrats were descended from Vikings from centuries ago. In fact, the Slavs referred to their Viking conquerors as 'Rus', which means 'foreigner'. That might also be why there was little connection between Russian peasants and the aristocrats.
@ThorgrimThorvaldsson
@ThorgrimThorvaldsson 3 жыл бұрын
Actually, the Slavs did not come up with the name "Rus." The name derives from the Old Norse ruotsi, which is an old name for Sweden, where the Eastern Vikings mostly came from. Ruotsi comes from Proto-Norse roots which mean "rowers." There was certainly a disconnect between the peasants and aristocracy, but by the early 20th Century, it had been 1,000 years since the Scandinavian Rus had begun settling in the region, and their society had long been assimilated into the native Slavic one. I doubt many peasants even knew the origin of the Rus, let alone consider it a factor in their hatred of the aristocracy.

The word "tsar" is closely related to the word "caesar" (both end with -sar, and both begin with a consonant), the word "caesar" also moved into germanic use, where it became "kaiser" Both "tsar" and "kaiser" are words that evolved from the same latin/roman word "caesar"

And that word, naturally - also comes from latin, from "imperator", translating roughly to "commander" or "ruler" depending on context. Etymology is always super interesting, because words are so fluid, and will change *exact* meanings quickly, but the theme or topic will usually stay related, often over centuries! Take the spanish word "rey" from latin "rex" to german "reich" and norwegian "rike" - exact meanings change from "ruler" to "empire" to "country" - but the *theme* is very similar across - the rulership of land.

Don't feel badly that you seem to have learned only dates and facts, but not the story linking them all together. That's a common failing in the way history is taught in U.S. high schools too (or, at least, it was when _I_ attended). In my opinion, teaching the STORY of hiSTORY would be much more useful and effective, even if the dates were all completely ignored.

Царь происходит от слова Цезарь. Точно также, как и Кайзер (Император Германии) Почему так? Вероятно, потому что и Россия, и Германия видели себя приемниками Рима. Россия потому, что бабушка первого Царя России Ивана 4 Грозного была София Палеолог, племянница последнего Василевса Византии (Восточной Римской Империи) Константина 11. Ну, а Германия потому что более 1000 лет была центром такого образования, как Священная Римская Империя (которая вообщем-то с Римом ничего общего и не имела, а и была вообщем-то и не совсем Империей, да и не особо священной, но ладно).

Do NOT want to sound cruel, but there is very little doubt that a LOT of what really was going on simply isn't taught in Russia today. I say this because it is a well known fact that BOTH The Communist "re-wrote" some history to make themselves to look better, and Stalin himself "re-wrote" some history of people to make HIMSELF look better. So, with history being re-written several times, there are some "real" history that has been twisted or simply ignored that isn't taught. On the other hand? Well, for the USA it is basically taught as something really "simple". The Russians pulled out of WW1 and "The October Revolution" was mostly peaceful and placed the Communist Party into power..... for nearly 70+ years until it 'collapsed" with the Berlin Wall coming down. (Which itself skips a TON of history to push that narrative.) Lenin, Stalin, and most of the Russian leadership are taught as "types" not so much as actual "people". Focusing mostly on the "abuse of power" more than anything else (overlooking a lot of the horrible things that the Communist did) or simply the "Cold War" mentality of Russia spying, lying and cheating their own citizens and using "fear" to remain in power. Not sure how it is taught NOW, as I finished 12th grade in 1990, roughly the time that "Communist Russia" collapsed. So, I am sure that the history of Russia is taught differently today than it was when I was still in school.

It's not like American history books aren't filled with outright lies about its own history, though. The origin myths of Columbus and Pilgrims and Puritans are laughably absurd. Manifest Destiny is glorified Lebensraum. Racism and imperialism are essentially swept under the carpet, in the Alamo and Civil War, to name only a few . And what kind of Russian history classes did you take? The October Revolution was mostly peaceful? American textbooks are far too dogmatically capitalist and xenophobic to accept that.

Trotsky was a radical warmonger who believed it was the Russian duty to spread the Revolution worldwide because the capitalists would never allow a "socialist island" to exist. He was also a major proponent of collectivization, to the point where Stalin's policies were actually toned-down versions of his own. Trotsky wasn't a socialist humanist, he was an arrogant fanatic who spent the rest of his life after losing the power struggle shit-talking Stalin over his own bitterness.

Keep in mind that under the right circumstances and leadership collectivization could potentially work. Stalin had Trotsky assassinated to shut him up for I guess you could say shit-talking coz he kinda did but that may be because Stalin was destroying the promise of revolution for the people and becoming a brutal dictator, purging the intellectuals and political opponents and sending them off to die in the Gulags and so on.

@@davidmcmahon4192 Trotsky was a man who crushed the naval men at Kronstadt for rising against a form of socialism they felt was becoming totalitarian and losing the way. This was, in general, his role as Commissar for War; crushing people underfoot for the crime of rebelling against the Soviet government and getting in the way of Lenin (and him) and their vision of the future. I do not doubt that he believed strongly in what he said, but it is indisputable that he considered it worth it to kill as many people as necessary to drive his beliefs forward. Collectivization would have been no different. Think of how Stalin's relentless march to industrialization, at such a rapid pace, caused so much suffering in Russia. By design in fact, as it relied on making things so bad in the countryside that rural peasants would be forced to move to cities, where they could be put to work in the factories and ideally be made proletariats rather than the religious, conservative, and apathetic class known as the peasants. That was arguably the second goal of Collectivization, breaking the power of the peasants to ever threaten a Russian government again. Remember all of this, and then understand that what Stalin did was a lesser version of the same things Trotsky intended for the USSR. Trotsky would have pursued even more radical industrialization, more strict collectivization of agriculture. Simply by necessity he'd have built a mountain of corpses, and his past conduct shows that he wouldn't balk at that. As for him being a warmonger, Trotsky was the father of something called the thesis of Permanent Revolution. This was the counter policy to the idea of "Socialism in One Country" championed by Bukharin, and later adopted more famously by Stalin. Socialism in One Country believed that the Soviet Union was simply not powerful enough to spread the Revolution by force in any massive way, and so its efforts would be better spent developing the USSR itself, repairing the great wounds caused by the Great War and Civil War, and working to uplift the impoverished country into a beacon of Socialism the world over. This way, it was believed, Socialism could begin to spread without a single Soviet troop dying, as the proof of the success of Socialism would show capitalism to be the outdated mess they believed it to be and workers would begin rising up on their own. This plan was also heavily tied into the New Economic Policy, which is basically the idea that the Soviet Union was not correctly developed for socialism yet as it barely had a capitalist element, and so a period of pseudo-capitalism would be needed to create a wider population ready to build socialism, rather than a nation of peasants lorded over by Red boyars. This was... less well received by Stalin. Anyway, I went into this diatribe about Socialism in One Country because it helps with context for its opposing plan, Permanent Revolution. Where the former believed that Socialism was best being built up in the Union, Trotsky believed that such a plan was doomed from the beginning. No capitalist country would permit a socialist island to exist BECAUSE, like Bukharin proposed, its mere existence would serve to give their own workers movements something to point to as a successful alternative to capitalism. Probably inspired by the intervention of European powers and Japan into the Russian Civil War, Trotsky believed that soon, the Soviet Union would face another great invasion from the forces of reaction, and that if socialism was to survive, it had to not only prepare to resist, it had to aggressively expand its frontiers. In other words, for socialism in one country to exist, it had to be spread to EVERY major power around the world. So long as a single major capitalist economy remained, there would be endless challenges to socialist ascension and so, the Permanent Revolution. A global crusade to "liberate the working class" and spread communism at the end of a rifle's barrel, in a strange form of preemptive self defense.

The Russian cold has always made the Russian people suceptible to false promises. Just as the Dutch water has always made the Dutch traders, and the French rolling hills have made them farmers. The land shapes the people.

Dasha, you spoke so quietly and too fast, I could not understand you, and I wanted so much to know your real opinion, on history of your country. My great Grandparents left RUSSIA, to escape Czar Nicholas in 1906......We are American now. Would like to know current Young Russians, How they feel about growing up in Russia, and What you think of America, Putin, Trump, Biden, old Soviet Union, the works. PLEEEEEEZZZZEEE!

This Oversimplified History is a pretty biased one, even using some cold war anti communist rhetoric, but it is fun animation

I remember reading the communist manifesto and not only being wholly unimpressed but also amazed at how bad of a writer Marx was, I'm pretty sure the manifesto could have been a pamphlet if Marx was so in love with his own speech, and Das Kapital would likely be a single relively short book.

I find it interesting how you say you are ashamed after the video describes the conditions of the serfs in the 19th Century. I'm American and many of us ignore or try to defend the shameful parts of our past. Indeed, many Americans believe that the past was the "good old days" and clamor for a return to a mythical past which, of course, never existed.
