      Don't think he rode the luxury train, but they said they are one of the only passenger lines.

    It‘s not that Muraviev and Ignatiev acquired these lands „without doing a single thing“, but without fighting, which is much smarter.

    Not a bad account, though there are a few omissions and some unclear points.
    Firstly, the leadership of Qing was not Mongol but Jurchen (proto-Manchu). They began to assimilate Han (living beyond the reaches of Ming), Koreans, Mongols, and other minority groups living in the northeast. This led to creation of the 8 Banners (actually 24), which every Manchu was assigned membership. These bannermen formed the invasion force.
    Re the Treaty of Nerchinsk, it wasn't that the Qing Dynasty didn't know or care about Manchuria. They were Manchurian after all. At the time of the Treaty the Manchus were wrapping up the conquest of the Ming Dynasty and the colonisation of the interior region eighteen provinces (the Han-dominated area), a process that began with wars against the Mongol khanates and Chosun (Korea) to weaken Ming supremacy, then the invasion of Ming China, and the years of fighting to took gain control - about seven decades to accomplish this. Numerically, the Manchus were few, but they were a potent force. However, they were focussed on the south and west. In 1689, the Qing were two years into the First Dzungar-Qing War, which was in the area today known as Xinjiang province - basically about as far west from the Manchurian homeland a Manchu could be. During the war, the Dzungars cast about for allies, making overtures to the Russians. Russian ambitions were to reach the Pacific, which was something the Qing could offer and provide and the Dzungars couldn't.

    No other passenger trains on the BAM? Rubbish! Watch Bald and Bankrupt!

      Thank you for watching Major Corrigan's lecture. There are some passenger train services that operate on this line, however they are infrequent and require frequent changes if you wish to travel the full length of the line. The most frequently served section is between Taishet and Tynda. For more information, see the Russian Railways website www.rzd.ru/
