Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
The History of Russia continues with the aftermath of the assassination of Alexander II in 1881. The reign of his son, Alexander III, saw a return to Russian autocracy, as revolutionaries were pursued by the Okhrana - the Tsarist secret police - and Jews were targeted in pogroms. Sergei Witte helped to modernise Russia's economy, and work began on the Trans-Siberian railway. Under Nicholas II Russia suffered a humiliating defeat in the Russo-Japanese War. Discontent with the Tsarist government led to the 1905 Revolution, and the Tsar was forced to make political concessions and promise a constitution. Pyotr Stolypin, the new prime minister, passed land reforms to help Russia's peasants, but was assassinated by a revolutionary in 1911, while Siberian faith healer Grigori Rasputin found favour with the imperial family. World War One proved disastrous for Russia. There were enormous casualties at the front, while food shortages caused unrest in the cities. When striking workers were joined by the soldiers sent to disperse them, it became clear the Tsar's government had lost control of the situation. Nicholas II agreed to abdicate, but a new Provisional Government could not halt Russia's slide into political, economic and military chaos. paving the way for a second, Bolshevik revolution

Interesting but you didn't mention what was probably the Tsar's greatest mistake; taling personal command of the army. Not only did this mean he was blamed for the military disasters but it left the Tsarina in charge at home where she gave what one historian as a masterclass on how not to run a country eg ending up with a prime minister who was suffering from third degree syphillis and so a bit unbalanced just because he liked Rasputin.

I would like to watch part 6 with the history of 20s century: WW, Stalins regime, Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Gorbachev, Yeltsin, the Afghan war in the 80s, the civil war with Chechnya 1993-1997, the fall of USSR in 1991 and a large political economic and social crisis during the 90s. What a hard time!

I would like to know how on earth the protocols of zion was composed in these circumstances. If it wasn't originally linked with Jewish i. e if it is pure fiction who do anti-jewish people product hate Jews so much. I mean they portray Jews as no unredeemable mold in the book

There has never existed a state (as we would know/describe it) which was communist. nor has there existed a socialist one unfortunately. Even more unfortunate is the mistakes people make in thinking/assuming/pretending that there has existed any such states.

9: 55 so that's how the zionists slipped in there. Also, no mention of the slaughter of the Romanov's,
at the hands of the jewish Bolsheviks, bringing over 300 years of Romanov rule to a sudden end. Very strange indeed.

1: 45 Tsar in the centre, behind him his wife, former Danish Princess Dagmar, and their son Nicholas
10: 18 eaaaaaasy, not 400 but 300 years of Romanov rule were celebrated in 1913

when gregory rasputin arrived in the scene, the background music suddenly became groovy. catchy. somewhat descriptive and repetitive of the first two letters of his name.

false rumors

Nobody asks why all those upraisings, revolt, revolutions. Because of The unbearable level of poverty of millions and the richness and well being of the few. Easy
