I’ve been waiting for this! I’m not Russian, let alone Slavic but I’ve wanted to learn about Russian history and how it became such a powerhouse for so long. Could you do Serbia next? And perhaps Sweden?

Если вы поставили Солженицына среди писателей и поэтов, то почему среди музыкантов нет элджея?

Very nice to end the video with the Tetris theme tune. After all, Tetris is Russia’s greatest export, aside from Russian vodka, ballet and nesting dolls.

Next is Rwanda. Sorry about 1994. 🇷🇼

At 11:10, the red map changing colors as former Soviet countries gain independence, Russia should change color before Kazakhstan, because Kazakhstan was the last Red country. There was a brief moment when the Soviet Union was only Kazakhstan. Even Russia already left the Soviet Union prior to Kazakhstan.

East Slavs were under the rule of Germanic dynasties in most of history

Why completely skip over the Soviet Union’s invasion of Finland and The Winter War?

[vladyslavanufriiev]

"very high level of human development". yeah right. maybe in moscow, but the villages and smaller towns are literally hell on earth

Lol I still remember JJ’s video on country’s most popular leaders and for Russia Stalin was in the top 5. Kinda makes current events more obvious but is amusing

[random-characters]

I’m from this country but now live abroad. I very happy that in the literature page you mentioned Leonid Andreyev. He is one of my favorite but he is not so famous in foreign countries. Great job as always ❤

Did it justice. Russia will most likely have a hard time. They should focus on culture rather than war

[papazataklaattiranimam]

Tatar dynasty aka Godunovs also ruled Tsardom of Russia

Fun Fact: At the past, Turkic peoples like Bulgars, Khazars, Pechenegs, Avars, Huns, Onogurs, Utigurs, Sabirs, Saragurs, Kutrigurs, Gokturks, Kipchaks, Cumans, Tatars, Ottomans etc. were fighting with each other for Ukraine/Russia. But now, Slavic peoples are fighting for it👀
