    THINGS THAT I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT BUT BROKE THE FLOW OF THE VIDEO
    Pronunciation: So here’s the thing. I don’t speak Russian, nor do I speak Georgian, heck if you’ve heard my voice I can barely speak my native language of English. My key pronunciation sources was the documentary Stalin: Inside The Terror, an interesting documentary I found online. That’ll be linked in the description for you guys to check out. Of course never underestimate my ability to mispronounce a word, but you can head them pronounced properly in the documentary.
    Spelling: A lot of these names have multiple ways of being spelt, in example Stalin’s surname can be spelt Jughashvili, Dzhugashvili, and the spelling I use through the video Djugashvili. I used this spelling as it was the spelling used in the book “Young Stalin” by Simon Sebag Montefiore and as he said on the matter “Yet I feel I must spell Stalin’s real name Djugashvili because it was so well known by that spelling.”
    Svetlana’s Surname: So for those who’ll known their Russian history they will know I kind of contradict myself in this video, kind of? While I say none of his children had the surname Stalin, and I guess in the most literal sense that is true, Svetlana was born with the surname Stalina, while not the name Stalin itself it’s the Russian female form of the surname from the convention of adding an A at the end of a male surname that ends with in. Just thought I would clear that up here with you all.
    And yes of course, yes, I am fully aware I look like Trotsky and I made a video about the bastard who set up my assassination.

      Hey, I've made a recording of all Russian names in the video with Russian pronunciation, including a syllable-by-syllable version to really understand how they are all pronounced.

      Edit: If you ever make a video with Russian pronunciation involved, I'd gladly help

      I'm pretty sure "Joseph/Ioseb" is pronounced "Yoh-seb" or "Yoh-sif" in these cases.
      Also, "Yevgeny"
      Pronounced "yev-gen-ee," NOT "jen."

      I think you did mildly okay with those names, as Georgian names in transliteration aren't easy. I tend to like "Dzhugashvili" even if it takes from a Russian-based transliteration (where "Djugashvili" is hybrid French).
      Here's a native speaker on Forvo pronouncing it: forvo.com/word/ka/dzhugashvili/
      Thank you for the cool video! (Aside: the Sheen/Estevez children are like this too: some use Sheen -- like Martin, who takes this name from his mother -- and others use Estevez (Martin's paternal and birth surname).)

    3:00 Stalin, although he was an evil bastard in many other ways, he did not leave his son to die because of pure hatred. If he had swapped the Field Marshall for his son who was not even close to the same rank as the Field Marshall, it would have been an example of gross bias on his part. This would have been used by his political opponents, rightly so, allowing them to pick up more traction. So if he traded the Field Marshall for his son it would have made him a hypocrite who did not “put the interests of the state first.”

    My grandmother says that surnames mean a lot. She says that the surname of a person effect them unconsciously, whether they want it or not. Do you agree?
    As you can see, this is not always. My Russian mother was born Yelena Yegorova (or, as she was born in Estonia, they spelled it Jelena Jegorova). At the age of 18, she married a fellow named Nikolai Zenkov back in '86, had my half-brother Aleksandr (or Sasha, as I call him) and changed her name to Zenkova. Nikolai and my mum later divorced.
    In the beginning of the in 1998. my father, a Swede with the surname Andersson, and my mother met when he was on a trip to Estonia. Mum later moved to Sweden and had me four years later and I got my father's name. When Dad and Mum at last decided to marry, she took the name Andersson.
    I am half-Swedish and half-Russian, but am always thought of as being a Swede, due to me being born in Sweden, having a Swedish citizenship and due to my surname. However, sometimes, I feel more Russian at certain moments. Mainly because of my appearance (I think that I look more Slavic than Germanic), but also for going to Russian language lessons here. Swedish culture is alright, but I find Russian culture more intriguing and, at some times, rich. To make it all a little bit more confusing, my first name's American/English. :p
    Even though I have a Swedish surname, an English first name, I look more Russian and sometimes feel the urge too look through some old documents from my mother and my maternal grandfather, originating in the Soviet Union. It's weird. However, in the end of ends, I am what I am. :)

      The US's Georgia name comes from King George II of the UK.
      The Caucasian Georgia (as if US's Georgia is African or something lol) name comes from Saint George, which is featured on its coat of arms, killing a mythological creature, meanwhile Saint George's Cross is featured on the flag of this country.

      Short answer - it's a coincidence. Etymology of both names would make for an interesting video though (even though it's kinda blurry subject). Also, they have same names in English specifically. In most languages (all that I know of) they have different names. For example: in my language (Polish) we use original, English name for the state (including English spelling), but we call the country in the Caucasus "Gruzja". Georgians themselves call their country "Sakartvelo". My mom works as the border guard (and doesn't know English) and I remember how she told me that she was surprised when she saw Georgian passport for the first time. At first, she was confused as to why would anyone use a passport from a US state.

    I was always a bit confused by how Americans see Stalin not trading Yakov for a German Field Marshall as a bad thing. In the USSR it gave him a gigantic popularity boost. Some older people and young Stalinists are still "proud of having a leader who puts his country first in every aspect". While I'm not a Stalin-supporter myself, I still fail to see what was wrong with his decision. Can someone explain it to me?

    • @wabakin7700
      @wabakin7700 7 ปีที่แล้ว +134

      It is just morally wrong, sacrificing you own son and not even flinch. It doesn't matter if its your country that wants it because the son believed that his dad was his savior but in end he was treated like a traitor not a son.

    • @AndrewVasirov
      @AndrewVasirov 7 ปีที่แล้ว +138

      For the people he was the leader of their country. His job wasn't to be a good father.
      If you hire someone to do something, you won't pay him because he's a good man with his son, but because he does what he has to do, that's why you hired him in the first place. The same is for Stalin. Did he stop a possible civil war? Yes, he did. Did he ordered his troops to do whatever is necessary to win the war? Yes, he did. He did a good job as the leader of the USSR.
      Morality is less important than the victory in a war started by those that wanted to annihilate your people. Yakob would've ended dead anyway.

This changed his look on life and made him colder. Is affected his son and his actions towards him. His second marriage repaired his outlook. He was disappointed in how his son presented himself and adore his daughter only to be consumed by his work. Such a nice life. He sounds like a good person and seems extremely charismatic, not all dictators or war criminals are necessarily bad people.

    this is actually kind of depressing. you have a man beaten by his father, whose first wife and only love died leaving their 9 month only son behind, who then hardened his heart literally naming himself man of steel, who ended up with 2 sons who he saw as imbeciles , and died with his name being cemented as an evil dictator with no love in his heart. frankly this would make a top notch novel

    2:49 actually he said some different phrase. I don't know how to translate, something like "missed" with some "lol, good luck dude" intonation. Which makes this phrase a bit different. But still, he said it in fron of his dying son.

    For some reason, I didn't feel you went in hard enough on Stalin as you did on other famous dictators around that time. Stalin was far worst than anyone and yet has been swept under the rug in regards to what he did in his political career when it comes to people who talk about him.

      Almost all modern scholars believe that he existed historically, with or without his divinity is disputed.

    • @coweatsman
      @coweatsman 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      But there are no contemporary records of him. Only 3 hand accounts which sound eerily like other "sons of gods" stories. Philo of Judaeus who live in Jerusalem at the same time never mentions him. Nazareth did not exist until the 2nd century. All the accounts are decades after the alleged events and some of those are thought to e forgeries. All the accounts sound like "Chinese whispers" getting more fantastic with time. Paul gives no indication that the resurrection was corporeal. Only like an apparition. His was the first account. No details of Jesus' life. By the gospels the resurrection is bodily and many details of his life are provided, complete with "miracles".
      For me to believe that Jesus was real I would need non-biblical contemporary records and these don't exist. Eusebius is believed to have inserted the so called Josephus paragraphs.

    The surname Steel or Steele which means the same is common here in Britain.
    The similar-sounding, but different meaning name, Starling [same as the bird] is also quite common.

  • @archer8849

    Stalin's life was very similar to that of Ivan IV The Terrible. Ivan also had a wife he was very close to until she died of sudden illness (allegedly poisoned) and that changed his psyche for the worse. He was also abused in childhood, not by his father though, but by boyars.

    Are there any Hirohitos left?

    • @Uyarasuk
      @Uyarasuk 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hirohito is not a family name, it's a personal name. If you're asking if he had relatives, his son is the current emperor of Japan, and he had one other son, still living, and five daughters, two still living. Their family is the Imperial House of Japan, which according to traditional dates has reigned over Japan for 2,677 years as of year 29 of the Heisei era . Also, in Japan he is not called Hirohito for the most part; he is called the Syôwa emperor, after his era name. In many circumstances Japanese consider it disrespectful to refer to people by their given names, preferring to use family names and honorifics, and it is considered grossly inappropriate to refer to the Emperor of Japan by his given name.
