Actually Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich and Prince Yussupov were exiled by the Tsar, despite pleas from members of the Imperial family. The tsar actually was very annoyed by their pleas. Because the two killers of Rasputin were exiled far away they both survived the Revolution, with Prince Yussupov living in Paris after the war.

Lenin's Bolsheviks effectively staged a COUNTERREVOLUTION in October after the popular uprising in May of 1917. The entirety of 1917 was pure chaos for Russia and it was no sure thing that Lenin, or Communism in general, or any one faction for that matter would win out at the time.

+Nathan Carriere I was under the impression that the October Revolution was not nearly the massive popular uprising it was portrayed as in Soviet propaganda, but more like a coup where Soviet paramilitaries overthrew the provisional government. It's a fact that the Bolsheviks were not supported by most of the Russian people- they failed to win even a quarter of the vote in the November 1917 legislative elections (right after the "revolution"). Was there really a nationwide uprising against the Provisional Government? I'm not saying you're wrong, but the evidence doesn't seem all there to me.

Lenin was in Exile in Switzerland and journied through Germany in a sealed train where no one was allowed off untill it passed out of Germany. The Germans may have allowed it through if they thought it may help to end the war. But I don't think Lenin was that big at the time that he was thought of as some one likly to end the war. It was likly not even a special train but just an ordinary transit train that regularly passed sealed across the country from the southern boarder to the northern. (So I do not know).

I know this is two years in the future, but I came across a great story for Out of the Ether. Indy, have you ever heard of the Inkerman and the Cerisoles? They were minesweepers built in Ontario at the tail end of the war. The French government was so desperate for more able body sailors, they pulled out men from Flanders and retrained then as sailors. They set sailed for England on November the 11th 1918, the day the war ended. Ten days later then ran into a powerful snowsqual and vanished on Lake Superior. To this day, we have no idea what happened to them, not even a hint of wreckage. They remain the last warships to sink on The Great Lakes and the largest loss without any information in the French Canadian navy. In many ways its similar to the mystery of the USS Cyclops, another vessel that vanished in 1918. There have been many rumors about what happened since 1918. Some say they used wooden rivets to speed up construction. Some say they ran into reefs that had not been located yet. Some people theorize that they sank in what is sometimes called the Superior Triangle, yeah the Great Lakes apparently have there own Bermuda Triangle. Sea monsters, aliens, you name it, they have all been said to have killed those 78 men. Doesn't help that the French government has always acted weird about the sinking. They for some reason purged all records from naval archives and even flat out denied the sinking until 1921. I basically live on the Great Lakes and I somehow never heard of this story. I personally have never heard of taking frontline soldiers and retraining them, but as we all know, World War I was quite a strange thing. I hope you find this as interesting as I did.

which are the sources for protopopov revolutionary conspirasies? It is funny that himself became a dictator the last days of the empire which overthroned by the revolution in march and found his death by Cheka in 1918...

5:53-6:45 But what if the military joins the revolutionaries? Or is too weak to crush the revolutionaries? Or simply doesn't stop the revolutionaries? There are a lot of ways in which this plan can go wrong.

In the book "Russian Roulette" by Giles Milton, it is suggested that the British had a hand in the murder of Rasputin. Oswald Rayner a member of Britain's Russian Bureau ( a part of what today would be MI-6) had been present at the Yusupov mansion and took part in the assassination.

A general query: During an essay assignment comparing the impact of WW2 to that of WW1 in Canada's identity and culture, I came across bits of information regarding Ukrainians interned in Canada and monitored similarly to how the Japanese were during WW2. This was allegedly due to suspicions that they would be sympathetic to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. I mention this because I hadn't heard of it, my history teachers didn't know about it, and primary sources were difficult to find. It's unfortunate that such things are so easily lost to history. So I was wondering if there shall be a special(or several) on interned civilians in the belligerent nations.

bart klaassen Maori soldiers performed a haka before they attacked the Turks at the battle of Chunuk Bair at Gallipoli in 1915. On The Western Front most Maori soldiers were pioneers, building trenches etc, rather than infantry.

I have a question... why are the number of machine guns reported in the losses of a battle? Do they share calibers and ammunition across sides so as to be turned on the opposition? I get the idea of Killed, Wounded, and prisoners, but have machine guns become such an irreplaceable resource that they now rank with human losses? Love the Show.

I have a question for Out of the Trenches! First off, wonderful show and I want to thank everyone involved! As for my question, is there any real, non-staged or scripted combat footage or photos from the war? I know taking pictures in general was difficult back then, but maybe something was caught at some point?
