12:00 - Canada’s government ran adverts in Ukraine encouraging people to emigrate. This was because of the discovery in Central Canada of a belt of Chernozem, a black earth rich in Ammonia and Phosphorous, very similar in composition and concentration to Southern Ukraine and Western Russia. Canada wanted farmers with the expertise to exploit the high harvest yields this could produce. Once the first Ukrainian farm settlers discovered just what life was like there without a Tsar trying to outlaw your language and culture, the letters home encouraged many more to come. Its why this part of Canada is so populous relative to its latitude and central continental position.

[@mesofius]

​@@gloverfox9135There were Ukrainian communities in New York by 1890. Both Christian and Jewish, though Jewish Ukrainians didn't start identifying with Ukraine until the 1990s. Many Jews came from southern Ukraine, while Christian Ukrainians came in waves, from western Ukraine 1870-1920, political emigres in the 1920s and 1930s, followed by post WW2 refugees from German forced labor enterprises. Together, they formed a sizable neighborhood in lower Manhattan, it's still there.

I can say with confidence that the author can be attributed to the "higher league". With what detail and depth he dives into the flaw before his study. Understanding small nuances that the vast majority do not pay attention to. (although the main rule of life is the whole point in the nuances). I watch his video about the history of Ukraine with interest and meticulousness. I myself try to perceive history by distancing myself personally from it. After all, the world is not divided into "we are good, and they are bad." And I am aware of the cross and shame for what happened in our province. To what I was leading... To what the author directly professionally presents to us viewers is not preconceived. information in a word, P-Profi

Since Finland is the last remaining country that has remained independent and without communist ruination since the Russian Empire, Finland there for has the rightful claim for Roman Empire. Italy, France, Germany, modern Russia and Turkey cannot claim it since there is no continuation. Jokes aside, Ukrainian history during the civil war era is extremely interesting. Nestor Makhno is probably the most interesting of the leaders during that era.

[@julianmorrisco]

The Finns should also get the Kola Peninsula, right up to Murmansk. Stalin stole it.

[@ethanblackthorn3533]

yes, Makhno is cool. If you're interested, have a look at Petro Bolbochan (commanded successful operation to take Crimea), winter campaigns of UPR's army (kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaGVgmiYprKfqq8), Kholodnyi Yar (there's a wonderful book about those insurgents by Yuriy Gorlis-Gorsky)

[@Daniel-nf1gq]

11:32 About that census. It wasn't particularly wrong or falsified or anything like that, but it had one quirk that I rarely see mentioned and even more so counted in. To make it short - it decided upon person ethnicity by language. Meaning that literate people, i.e. literate in russian language as that was a default, were given a priority to be signed up as velikorosy. In result pretty much all across the western Russian Empire results were skewed in favor of ethnic russians by a solid single digit %'s on average, and especially so in major cities where a lot of jobs like clerks and engineers required education, that is, russian education. So it wasn't so much that russian emigration to Ukrainian cities was so tremendous, but it just overlapped with a phenomena where in urban environment ethnic ukrainians would on mass switch to the russian language as it offered greater career prospects and was considered fashionable "language of culture" by masses.

[@20chocsaday]

That would be a way to ignore the Gaelic speakers in much of Scotland. The first generation in the cities wouldn't read much English if at all.

[@signorasforza354]

Nope. Ruzzian empire was forbidding Ukrainian language and was prosecuting Ukrainians. And deporting Ukrainians to Siberia, Far East, Altay. Don’t spread your ruzkie nonsense here. Literate fashionable ruzzians from barracks😂 Children of snohachestvo.

I find it very interesting that the germans of all people were the ones backing Ukrainian indipendence. Most likely they did not do this out of the goodness of their heart, but being a German, i would love to know the Motivation behind that move.

[@person9313]

it was to weaken russia pretty much

[@ethanblackthorn3533]

One of the reasons is that Ukraine promised to provide Germany with food because Germany at that time had problems with food. Sadly, it wasn't always smooth because this agreement wasn't communicated very well to our farmers, so they weren't very willing to give it. Well, long story short, when communists occupied Ukraine, they took MUCH more food than Ukraine was supposed to give Germany

[@thejudgmentalcat]

[@dirtyace1668]

And it's not just Ukraine. This kind of thing is common throughout history to nations surrounded on all sides by neighbors with imperialistic ambitions. Every so many years or decades, you get to be either a direct or indirect target of those ambitions. Knowing this, you can then see why geographical position is so important, like in the case of USA.

At one point after the Orange Revolution, Ukrainians began to consider switching to a Latin alphabet to further distinguish themselves from Russia. Good intentions, and even though it would have made font-making much easier, Ukrainian font designers and historians vehemently rejected this idea. If not for the historical considerations (like Ukraine using Cyrillic before Moscow existed), Ukrainian with Latin script is even more of an unreadable trainwreck than Polish. Anyway, I read that in an article about the history of fonts in Ukraine, and it's the most incredible insight into the past 20 years of their history, especially because it gives insight into the perspectives of average people. Pro-Russian protestors used Impact, even with its infamously awful Cyrillic, because it looks stable and authoritarian. Pro-Ukrainian protestors used fonts like Frutiger Oblique to signify newness and moving forward. Interesting stuff like that.

This would make an interesting video topic: Graphic design as cultural linguistic signifier.

Okay, so there's 2 thing. The first one is that Ironclads were *just* around the corner during the Crimean war, although technically the French abomination that was the floating battery may count given it had iron reinforcement. The second is actually to give a bit of context to viewers regarding the Battle of Hamel, cause I find it interesting. Hamel had a few reasons behind it, but the 2 main ones were to capture the German controlled village, and to give the Americans, who would be partaking in an attack for the first time in ww1, some combat experience. The initial plan was to have 6 Australian and 10 American companies take part in the attack, but 6 of the 10 American companies were withdrawn as Pershing wanted the American Expeditionary Force to be under American command to avoid them being used as cannon fodder by the French and British, who wanted the Americans under their respective command. However, while all 10 companies were withdrawn, 4 of them outright disregarded orders and remained to be involved, and the attack was completely successful, being only 3 minutes behind the scheduled time that the battle should end, according to the plans.

why say "at the time the british dominion of canada"? canada's legal name is still the dominion of canada, it was given that name upon confederation. most of the current canadian constitution was in place upon confederation. it was simply the dominion of canada, as it still is. (though in 1951 it became gov policy to stop saying dominion) if your gonna say it was british canada after the 1867 confederation, you've gotta say canada was british until 1982, as thats when the constitution was finally changed to remove all british control. or even now, as the canadian head of state is still the british monarch. doing so is incredibly unhelpful historically and doesnt accurately represent canada at all. after the dominion was formed there was hardly any british decision making in canada. ive never heard a canadian historian describe canada as if its a british posession post 1867.
