Hello. I've supported the 16 Days in Berlin project and am glad I did but I would like to ask what is the entry level of support required to get access to the digital version of the documentary ?(I know it won't be posted on KZbin). I had got the idea that 5€ was it but I am not sure. Any hint would help. Thank you .

Main reason why the Whites lost was that they didnt acknowledge any new countries. Had they done so, those new independent states would have helped them in provisions, manpower and fights (for example Estonia on the Petrograd push). Instead they sometimes ended fighting with whites... Big loss on the diplomacy side - or lack of it rather.

It's one of the most important wars in history, but rarely do western history books cover it as there was virtually no effect on most western nation's. Out of all of these western nation's, the UK had the most involvement and doesn't mention their involvement in that much detail in regular carriculum. Infortunately there is even worse in the USA with there being little to no mention in US history books other then there was a civil war between white and red. The rest of the details of the war are only spoken in schools were once member states of the Russian led government or neighboring countries.

@Ы Шуриков same to the French revolution or Paris revolution or Chinese revolution, due to too many in poverty, no foods, shelters, and very basic life conditions. When talking about communism or socialism, try to be rational to analyze the real scenario during that specific era rather to be brain-washed like a donkey "Manchurian Candidate", full of hate. Many Chinese youth prior to 1949 also very enthusiastic about revolution although many of them were well-educated and from well off families. Majority of them went to Yan-an, under the extremely hardships to try to save China. Even they didn't know the actual future for their endeavors, they risked their lives by doing so from their strong faiths and pure souls. Got to understand why and how the Soviet and Chinese liberations were achieved in 1917 & 1949. Read more, understand further. This is a agreeable comment to you. Although later both Soviet and China didn't do that well, too complicated to say here. Too fervent in politics later on, that maybe one of the core issues.

5:02 My great great grandfather fought under Semyonov’s leadership during the civil war. He was apart of the Baikal Cossacks. Semyonov (according to my father and my grandma) tried to marry my great great grandfathers wife (before they were married obviously) 3 or 4 times, but she refused because she was in love with my great great grandpa. He went on to be captured by the communists in late 1940’s/early 50’s in China as he and his family moved there to escape communism, but when they turned communist, they were captured and interrogated by the NKVD. He was sent to a gulag, and was one of the leaders in one of the few successful gulag uprisings, known as the Norilsk Uprising.

Not to be critical, but I think you misunderstand the entire premise of the channel, which is to follow events in real time. Yes, the channel currently is describing events thematically, not strictly week by week, but it's still moving forward in real time. You're asking them to go from 1919 back to pre-1914. Have you watched the first few videos the channel ever posted? kzbin.infovideos?view=0&sort=da&flow=grid I don't know if they addressed your specific topics, but they did do 3 "Prelude to WWI" episodes. Or maybe you've watched those and are curious what Jesse's more detailed scholarship would produce on the same topics. In that case, I'm curious too, but I'm not sure they'll go back in time for us.

Thank you. I was a young teen when Riddle of the Sands and a few other movies that originated from Invasion Literature were on HBO rotation in the US. Thinking about the effect the radio broadcast War of The Worlds had on the night of its premiere and the impact of Upton Sinclair’s novel had on the American meat packing industry I can not help but wonder about the policy and social impact of Invasion Literature. A genre popular in the UK until the outbreak of the Great War. The Russians having the Austro-Hungarian invasion plan and apprising Serbian intelligence of it from the Redl Affair seems to never get mentioned in accounts of the respective performances of the armies. I would like to see it addressed in English in my lifetime. I really hope to see these points discussed if this channel is willing. Even if other channels have done it I would love to see their take on these issues.

Can't be outdone by the Whites. Got to pillage at least as much as the Whites. How else can they say they beat the Whites in every aspect.

A Red poster was entitled "the nightmare of the deserter" - a deserter is depicted imagining the return of the Tsar, cossacks with knout whips and so on. The vast majority of soldiers were probably indifferent to whether Lenin, Kolchak or Denikin was head of the government, and supply difficulties could result in troops foraging for food and simply not returning. It was a hard core of a dedicated minority on both sides who kept it going.

The main reasons the whites lost is they were badly overstretched, they had had no coherent leadership,no unified vision for russia other than opposition to the bolsheviks, they lacked military competence, they treated the people under their rule like crap(which reminded them of the czar and further increased support for the bolsheviks)and they,unlike the reds lacked public support among the ordinary peoples of the russian empire nor an overriding ideology that could unite them. All of which the soviets had. Is it any wonder the whites lost?Add to that the fact that the whites had allied support while the reds had no one supporting them and you can see how poorly led and motivated the whites were. Imho i think they deserved to lose.

In terms of military strategy, the Reds were operating on interior lines. They could shift reinforcements around to stop and then counter-attack a White breakthrough. They had a unified leadership during the war - the Whites never had.
