Hello! The video is awesome, however, I want to point, that overall tone, along with the ending has somewhat of an ideological subtext… Some of the key highlights, that I’ve seen: 1) Alexander the Third didn’t just enforce strict control because “tsar bad”. That’s because his father, Alexander the Liberator, was brutally assassinated, just several years after the reformations. Alexander the Third had plenty of reasons to be cautious about the government’s ability to control the state. 2) Witte wasn’t just the Machiavellian figure, who somehow manoeuvred himself into higher positions: the guy was the one of the most educated among the elites, his other policies were really successful, and he is remembered like the one of the most effective policy makers in Russian history. The crash of the royal train happened, because the train (26 wagons with 2 locomotives) did not suit the railways. Also it was going almost 45 mph, for royal family to be on time. Witte was really not in charge. 3) the state approach towards the construction of the line was selected not to show, that private projects are inferior: this was due to the absence of private railroad projects of this size. There was a task, totally impossible for all the Russian railroad investors, the cost was too high

Hello from Siberia! I am very glad that someone made a video about my Motherland. I didn't expect the English video to be the first on KZbin covering this topic though there is no Russian video covering the Trans-Siberian Railway theme as good as this one! Thanks for your job! As a student who studies History I should say that the video is very accurate and intersting even for me. I want add that during soviet period there was BAM built in the area. It goes across China's border. USSR needed to build it due to the high-risk escalation with CPR that would lead to Vladivostok and Khabarovsk cut off from mainland. Also, one of the key reasons for the start of the Russo-Japanese War was that the Russian Empire wanted to control Manchuria with its railway, but Japan was to conquer it first. Russo-Japanese war led to First Russian revolution and the strengthening of communist and socialst movements in Russia. Paradoxically - the project, which was designed to unite the country, led to a revolution and further dissociation!

@@free_at_last8141 Well, due to some kind of political instability, when at first religion was the fundamental basis of your identity, then "Soviet people" came, and now - "multinational Russian people." I think people don't like all these changes in national identity and they just tend to choose geographic ones. Russians do not like to call themselves Russians, they prefer to assosiate themselves with the area or family heritage like "Siberian", "Northern", "Cossack", "Muscovite" and so on. I am Russian, but more often I call myself a Siberian. this is my mindset. There are many non-Russian nationalities in the country, they are prone to national identification such as "Tatar", "Yakut", "Dagestan" in other words based on language or their Republic.

It seems pretty reasonable to me to build a railway connecting the east and west. It's good for travel, but also, logistics. Whenever people go into the frontier without any established support, it's difficult. I think it's easy to say it was about control or whatever, but it's really just about utilizing technology for all of the practical applications. I bet it's a really interesting route. It's very iconic and famous. I'm glad you made comparisons to the Panama canal, and showed the pictures of it's construction. It's a really fascinating project as well. Possibly more ambitious too honestly. But the railway is still really cool.

With the T-S Railway finished a big number of troops could be moved to central and east Asian Russian territories and towards Iran, Afghanistan, China, Japan now within days, not within months as before. Since Russia and GB were imperialistic rivals in Asia this meant an enormous threat to GB. She therefore supported Japan against R. which led to the Russo-Japanese war of 1904 and to the Revolution of 1905 in Russia.

The transport of people and cargo over land by rail is more economical than across oceans by ship, in cost and in time. This is a key strategic and economic issue, as well as access to the resources of the interior. Ocean access is surely a strategic consideration, as well, though Russia’s only reliably warm water port is in Crimea. They were inspired by the example of the Transcontinental Railroad in the United States, and the Hamiltonian methods of its financing and construction.

The sentiments here about the railway remind me of the railway megaproject built in China that, essentially, ferries an entire population across the country. It's very difficult to measure that sort of economic, social, political, and military advantage until something (like a war) comes along. The US interstate took about 20 years to be built and was primarily framed as a convenient way for airplanes and convoys to navigate a embattled nation. There was even going to be a toll fee for using it to justify the cost. Now it's a crucial bloodline between the East and West coasts. I think it's paramount that we, as westerners, should be careful of casting any socialist or imperialist idea as "vain" or "unnecessary" just because it costs a lot in taxpayer money, and doesn't immediately make money on the first day. Investments require patience, faith, sacrifice, and risk - something that is normally heralded by the general population when done by a billionaire, but lauded if done by a politician.

I swear if you upload this in russian you will get so much more views, because most russian people already know the historical background behind the railway construction and would be very interested. We don't get so much details in russian schools about these things. Thank you for this video!

@15:17 I realize that you had a lot of ground to cover in one video. But one thing you left out that seriously impacted Russia and helped lead to the revolution was the building of the line through Chinese Manchuria. It was taken by Japan as an attempt to seize Chinese Manchuria for Russia and led to the Russo-Japanese War of 1904. The losses Russia suffered at the hands of the Japanese, combined with the drag that the material and labor was having on the Soviet economy and way of life helped fuel the discontent made only worst by World War I.
