mother of Nicolas II. (Empress Maria Feodorovna) was daughter of Danish king. Danish duchy Schlezwig-Holstein was among other lands in title of Russian emperors from mid of 18 century. In Copenhagen always wandered many Russian nobles and members of tsar dinasty all 19 century. In 18 century Denmark was place of exile for deposed dynastic line of Ivan VI and Anna Ioannovna. And in cause of war Denmark together with Russia had to lock access to the Baltic Sea for enemy fleet.
Great video, but there's one request. Please evaluate the history very carefully when you reach the revolution and especially the Second world war. These periods really hurt the Russian audience, especially when the author's position is reduced to the repetition of Hollywood films - as the stupidest and thoroughly false "Enemy at the gate", for example. Your videos still seemed to me quite objective and accurate (some nuances to which you can find fault, crayons and do not deserve special attention, against the background of a fairly accurate narrative), and that's why I write to you with a request to continue exactly the same as it was until now. Perhaps for the first time I see in the video made in Western Europe or the United States accurate and fairly objective description of the history of Russia, without any politics and demonization. This is unexpected and allows us to hope that it is still possible to establish some kind of bridge for normal relations between us. Therefore, I would like to suggest some moments that may hurt the Russian audience. This description of the revolution (usually demoniziruet Communists as evil villains, that is completely wrong. Their ideology is unusual, but quite humane, and after declassified archives of the Ministry of defense and part of the archives of the KGB suddenly yyasnilos that stories about the terrible Gulag - just nonsense for the most part, the GULAG - is the usual system of execution of sentences, something between the usual prison or penal servitude, which was used in the United States in the same years) And one more thing - the description of the second world war. I would not like to see a common fake about the evil Commissars who for some reason are being driven unarmed soldiers at the machine guns. The ratio of losses between the Reich (including the Reich allies) and the USSR on the Eastern front is about 1 to 1.3, in figures of about 8.5 million against 10.5 million. But in General, the USSR lost about 27 million people, and the remaining 16.5 million are peaceful people killed by the Nazis. With respect, hope that you will remain objective and further.
"Dank" means damp or musty. But in this example my generation made it's meaning become good or great. So he is saying "This history channel is good (or great)."
I am a huge history buff and always want good informative videos when I go looking for stuff to watch. You guys are the best by far and are so awesome I don't know how to express my thanks and admiration
Hello Epic History TV. This video is very nice. You have my honor. And i am from Czechia. And i am happy for czech subtitles. The subtitles don´t have mistakes :) As i am slavic i like this video.
I can say that this video really excellent for understanding general conception History of Russia. As for me, I could add many interesting things about Russian History
Google Translate: я отдаю вам должное как минимум это не предвзято уважение к вашей работе I pay tribute to you at least this is not biased respect for your work
Awesome video, always love your content. But in the video in 1686 the Holy Roman Empire is shown with the Netherlands still attached. Minor mistake, but the Dutch were away for almost 100 years. Also we (the Dutch) have still a lot of record that Tsar Peter the Great came to visit the Netherlands to ask for help on building a fleet, hence creating good relations between the countries. Alongside expanding trade between the Baltics and the Netherlands which the Dutch imported most of their wealth and grain from. Cant wait till your next video.
Thanks for the correction Freek, and the extra info on Netherlands. I highlight the Dutch Republic for Peter's European tour, so hopefully people will realise it was independent by that time, despite the dodgy map a few moments before!
Lmao Russia is not a superpower. That would require them to have military assets around the globe deployed if needed. For example, the US is the only country who can get to anywhere in the world with a task force in 36 hours. No other country can do that.
J.Allan Langerhan ruSsia is the bigest country in the world...with GDP smaller than GDP of very small Italy...two positions lower on ranking. 30% Russians don’t have toilets.... roads in huge part of Russia don’t exists... don’t say about climate beacause Canada and big parts of USA have the same climate as Russia. It is not a superpower. 100 kilometers outside Moscow houses are wooden cotages....

That maybe, but he also usually had a numerous, or even huge numerous advantage over his oponents. And he often used that to push his troops into a foolish bayonet charges in which lot of them were killed by enemies bullets (Especially when he fought in second anti-France coalition in Italy and Switzerland). But of course he had some genius victories for exaple against Polish-Lithuanian troops under Stołowicze battle in 1771. Suworow is definitely notone meaning person... he had same bad, as good sides as a military leader...
I am a bit disappointed that you did´t go more in depth about Narva one of the greatest military victories/defeats in history and how it lead to the reform of the Russian army and the comeback at Poltava
Sorry, a lot to cover in 10 minutes! This is only meant as a basic introduction, so people can get an overview of Russian history. I'll be returning to some of these topics in more detail later on.
@@EpichistoryTv you're right. To tell about some small period of Russia and convey a balanced essence in 10 minutes - you need talent. I hope that with such videos you will attract people to a more detailed and unbiased study of history, not only Russian. Humanity must go to the future, with full awareness of the past.
I'm not at all sure that the Battle of Narva (1700) would earn one of the greatest victory of military history, although in Sweden it has been considered among their greatest victories. Swedish army by the way was half Finnish, but still the battle is poorly known in Finland (the Battles in the 30 Year War are better known). And it also had 500 men strong Estonian regiments of Swedish army.

About Ukraine, don't want to insult anyone, but there were no Ukraine until the revolution. Ukraine in russian means: "The edge of the country" or "Okraina"
"Ukraine in russian means: "The edge of the country" or "Okraina" " But Ukraine did not excist. Were is your logic? If Okraina excisted than it was the Ukrainian lands. But look up some historcial maps. There you will find "Ukraine the land of the Cossacks" All this "Ukraine never excist" is pure russian propaganda because in fact there was no Russia before Peter the first. Even in old cossacks folk songs you will here "Ukrajina".
Why should the revolution create "Okraina" or "Ukraine"? Where is our logic? Ukraine is the border of the Rus "the wild fields". People from the Rus fled to the fields from polish repression and create the cossack hetmanat on ukraine. After the cossacks were dissolve by the russian empire the people on ukraine started calling themself as ukrainians. The term Ukraine excist since the Rus it was a geographical term then an today the Name of a state which was created by the people from Ukraine.

Great book man, i read it few mouths ago. Has many pages, but it holds attention all way. Only downside of the book is that you have many people around him who are important, so is hard to remember them :D
Another great video from Epic History. As a side note, for those who are interested in the Romanovs I can highly recommend StarMedia's (they have both an english and a russian channel) series about them. It's 8 parts and they spend like 40min on each ruler.
Интересный факт: Калининградская область, ещë до 1945 была Русской всего 3 года. Елизавета 1 подписала после победы над Пруссией "Манифест о вхождении Восточной Пруссии в мостов Российской Империи", но Пëтр 3, который был фанатом Пруссии, отдал обратно. Более того, Россия из-за него выплатила компенсацию, хотя Россия и выиграла.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_North_America Some would argue that. The first British colony was founded at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607. Many of the people who settled in the New World came to escape religious persecution. The Pilgrims, founders of Plymouth, Massachusetts, arrived in 1620. In both Virginia and Massachusetts, the colonists flourished with some assistance from Native Americans. Native Americans are considered US citizens and some natives of the Hohokan Tribe in the SW part of the Country have roots going back to the Pioneer/Formative period (AD 1-750).

Yes it was you ignorant idiot. Look up some historical maps. But there was also never any like "Russia" before Peter the first did not renamed the Muscovite Tsardom to Russian empire.
If we follow your argumentation, than there was never any "Rus" or "russians" or "Rusyny" before Rurik so "Russia" and "Russians" are fake because it never excisted.
vinllga What sets Peter the Great apart from these rulers is that they led long established powerful states.France,for example,under Louis XIV,contained half the population of Europe and was the all powerful terror of the region.Peter had to create the infrastructure of the state;he built the navy,the standing army,cities,etc.In a span of about thirty years Peter transformed a medieval state into a modern power.I do not believe any European monarch can compare to this colossus!
bedstuy rover common feature of all those rulers is that they have very much respect to sciences and arts, and made their states more powerful and influential, for example Phillip II can united all kingdoms of Spaine in one state, Carlos V conquered the South and Central America, Luis XIV and Peter t.G. established effective scientific development, beginning from Academies of sciences and universities in their countries. Peter, btw, was the member of Royal Society, and diploma of election he was handed personally by Isaac Newton!
William the Bastard is the greatest European monarch. He united the seven kingdoms, created the Domesday book, and essentially founded the nation that would go on to be the most powerful nation on the planet without equals.
VintageLJ CharleMagne is more great. He founded three or four main European empires - France, Germany, Austria (Holy Roman Empire) and medieval Italy with Roman popes institution
я поражен. Как этот канал еще держится? я пишу это не в плохом смысле, а в том плане, что история сегодня так исковеркана что такие вещи сегодня банят просто с ходу. К примеру украинцам поддерживающим текущую политику Киева эти видимо крайне не понравятся. Будут страйки кидать, если уже не кидают/-ли.
It's a historic mistake to name any territory' "Ukraine" before 1914. This name was never mentioned in any historic books or maps. East of Ukraine was called little Russia and West changed hands between a number of European countries. In other documentaries Germany is never mentioned until late 19th century and Italy too. Why such special treatment of Ukraine?
Ukraine exist way beyond 1600s as "The Ukraine," literally mean "Borderland" or "Frontier." On the Italian map of "European Tartaria" (1684). Dnieper Ukraine is marked as "Vkraine or the land of Zaporozhian Cossacks" (Vkraina o Paese de Cosacchi di Zaporowa). In the east there is "Vkraine or the land of Don Cossacks, who are subject to Muscovy" (Vkraina overo Paese de Cosacchi Tanaiti Soggetti al Moscovita). Meanwhile, The oldest recorded mention of the word ukraina is found in the Kievan Chronicle under the year 1187: ѡ нем же Ѹкраина много постона.(ō nem zhe Ukraina mnogo postona). "The frontier (Ukraina) mourned a great deal for him." (Lisa L. Heinrich, 1977)
Zaporozhian Cossacs never called themselves "Ukraines", they called themselves Russians, and followed Orthodox faith, and absolute majority of them were Russians peasant, who ran away from their aristocratic masters. Cossacs called "Ukraines" their enemies from Eastern Polland, Russians from Galych-Volynean princedom, who changed their fath to Catholic church, and both of these sides used every possible opportunity to fight against each other. Also this region has become known as Eastern Ukraine only in Soviet Period, when occupation communist government decided to destroy old Russian culture, so one of their ideas was to transfer to Ukraine and "ukrainize" Western Russia also known as Novorossiya.
Mongolia invaded 27 small states. It was more of a confederation than a whole country. Each of the states fought separately. The forces were usually 4:1, and Poland did not succeed

Russian history is so cool. I wish the US had a compelling medieval history :(((
Schoob The United States has the greatest founding story of any country
@Bobby Papoutsis Watch this space, the yanks will invent some!

Actually native americans have it
Please Part 3 ASAP!
1612 year decided the history of east Europe, will there be a Great Poland from Baltic to Pacific or Great Russia.
God was on the side of Orthodoxy ;)
If term "God" means to you global corporacies and XVIIc banksters - then yes. Many muscovite boyars wanted the same privileges and laws that polish nobility had. They wanted to unite Grand Duchy of Moscow with Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

LOL
Thanks, but russians don't want to be poland's slaves as west-ukrainians.
The fate of western Ukrainians under Polish rule showed well what would have expected Russians under Polish rule.
@@Nick32010
What u call "western ukraine" ?
We have talking about XVI-XVII, that's right?
@@damianb8322
Territory of modern western ukraine in XVI-XVII was under polish rule. And there was no good life there for not-poles people.
So, thanks, dont tell us about any 'Union' state with Poland.
@@Nick32010 Lets clarify:
What territories of Commonwealth we discuss: XVIIc Ukraine or todays western ukraine territory?
Who was the Pole (or Polander) in XVI - XVIIc ?
And what is mean "polish rule" ?
Wow great channel! Hope ya don't stop here I'd love to see Scandinavia version. Thanks for upload
About Ukraine, don't want to insult anyone, but there were no Ukraine until the revolution. Ukraine in russian means: "The edge of the country" or "Okraina"
"Ukraine in russian means: "The edge of the country" or "Okraina"
" But Ukraine did not excist. Were is your logic? If Okraina excisted than it was the Ukrainian lands. But look up some historcial maps. There you will find "Ukraine the land of the Cossacks" All this "Ukraine never excist" is pure russian propaganda because in fact there was no Russia before Peter the first. Even in old cossacks folk songs you will here "Ukrajina".
Why should the revolution create "Okraina" or "Ukraine"? Where is our logic? Ukraine is the border of the Rus "the wild fields". People from the Rus fled to the fields from polish repression and create the cossack hetmanat on ukraine. After the cossacks were dissolve by the russian empire the people on ukraine started calling themself as ukrainians. The term Ukraine excist since the Rus it was a geographical term then an today the Name of a state which was created by the people from Ukraine.
"Kraj" means "homeland".
@@StreetsoundzV Хватит уже!Все мы с одной земли - Руси!Только вы сейчас открещиваетесь от этого!Термин украина появился в 16 веке!После того как Русь снова объединилась в 1 гос-во после феодального дробления и завоеваний монголов и поляков\литовцев!В огромной стране и народ разный!Так везде!Во Франции или Германии.Разные регионы,акценты и традиции.Так же и на Руси\России!Вот и народ центральной Росии со временем стал отличаться от украинского(пограничного).
A Ukraine is butthurt. There, there. Now go back to being slave.
Good job man you did a great effort
We want more videos!! Btw do you have any idea if you are going to make a WW2 series or even an ancient world series?
He is going to make a WW2 series. Just not right now. It would take too long and he wants to work on something different first.
That's right, want to explore a few other things before taking on WW2. Including some ancient history.. FB & Twitter for updates.
Please do Russian civil war 1917-1922, but remember The "Russia" is represented by the White army and we are the good guys, and REDS are international communists and don't represent Russia, and they are the bad guys. Communism does not = Russian, Russian does not = Communist.
WhiteSeaLeviathan that goes without saying
+WhiteSeaLeviathan it all represents russia. it's russian history, and in history there really are no good guys and bad guys. In this case especially, since if the loyalists won then russia would have remained in ww1, and lord knows how terribly that would have ended for them
Amazing video, as always!
Thanks.
read "Peter The Great: His Life and World" by Robert K. Massie
it's like reading a novel
Peter the Great ist best for all long Russian history,it was amazing Tsar
Great book man, i read it few mouths ago. Has many pages, but it holds attention all way. Only downside of the book is that you have many people around him who are important, so is hard to remember them :D
Peter was Georgian,son of Erekle first,king east Georgian kingdoms(kartli-kakheti)
Great Animated Epic History Telling!
Do a Philippines History please 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Another great video from Epic History.
As a side note, for those who are interested in the Romanovs I can highly recommend StarMedia's (they have both an english and a russian channel) series about them. It's 8 parts and they spend like 40min on each ruler.
Russia's history is definitely unique and has highly been suppressed here in the US as far as teaching it.
Suppressed insinuates that it's intentional. Why?
outstanding content , learning so much , going to watch all of these ..... this channel is amazing
Well that was nice. Time to wait another year, I guess.
Hopefully not so long this time!
+Epic History TV Really hopefully
VERY INTERESTING!!!
Интересный факт: Калининградская область, ещë до 1945 была Русской всего 3 года. Елизавета 1 подписала после победы над Пруссией "Манифест о вхождении Восточной Пруссии в мостов Российской Империи", но Пëтр 3, который был фанатом Пруссии, отдал обратно. Более того, Россия из-за него выплатила компенсацию, хотя Россия и выиграла.
awesome video! I'm really enjoying this series :)
The Russian soul recently triumphed against the USSR, long live Russia 🇷🇺
These are Awesome! Keep em coming!
obrigado por disponibilizar as legendas em português
Excellent work. Thanks.

American wasn't even sperm when all these happened
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_North_America
Some would argue that. The first British colony was founded at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607. Many of the people who settled in the New World came to escape religious persecution. The Pilgrims, founders of Plymouth, Massachusetts, arrived in 1620. In both Virginia and Massachusetts, the colonists flourished with some assistance from Native Americans.
Native Americans are considered US citizens and some natives of the Hohokan Tribe in the SW part of the Country have roots going back to the Pioneer/Formative period (AD 1-750).

, ты позоришь Россию такими комментариями. Русские тоже очень молодая национальность по сравнению с некоторыми европейскими державами. И, кстати, русские любят Америку
just goes to show...quality over quantity.
Their forefathers did put seeds otherway.
That's alright. That American sperm beats Russia anyway.
Спасибо
Wow, that poor guy who lived his entire life in jail :/
fantastic vids, its nice u focus on history that is not just mainstream topics like wars, all though that can be appreciated also
Thank you!
There never was any "Ukraine" until The Russian Revolution
ThErE wErE nO iTaLy UnTiL 1861,
ThErE wErE nO iReLaNd UnTiL 1919
ThErE wErE nO rOmAnIa UnTiL 1859.
We, modern Ukrainians, are real successors of Rus'. "Russians" or Moscovites were Rus' colonies of Finnish tribes that became Mongolian vassals and we, Ruthenians were conquered by Lithuanians
Yes it was you ignorant idiot. Look up some historical maps. But there was also never any like "Russia" before Peter the first did not renamed the Muscovite Tsardom to Russian empire.
If we follow your argumentation, than there was never any "Rus" or "russians" or "Rusyny" before Rurik so "Russia" and "Russians" are fake because it never excisted.
Roman Popyk yeah yeah, Emperor of Mankind was Ukrainian too.
@@romanpopyk lmao, no.
Very good work. Thank you
Is there any European monarch whose work can compare to the achievements of Peter the Great?
Luis XIV, Philip II of Spain, Carlos V, emperor of Holy Roman empire, Napoleon Bonaparte
vinllga What sets Peter the Great apart from these rulers is that they led long established powerful states.France,for example,under Louis XIV,contained half the population of Europe and was the all powerful terror of the region.Peter had to create the infrastructure of the state;he built the navy,the standing army,cities,etc.In a span of about thirty years Peter transformed a medieval state into a modern power.I do not believe any European monarch can compare to this colossus!
bedstuy rover common feature of all those rulers is that they have very much respect to sciences and arts, and made their states more powerful and influential, for example Phillip II can united all kingdoms of Spaine in one state, Carlos V conquered the South and Central America, Luis XIV and Peter t.G. established effective scientific development, beginning from Academies of sciences and universities in their countries. Peter, btw, was the member of Royal Society, and diploma of election he was handed personally by Isaac Newton!
William the Bastard is the greatest European monarch. He united the seven kingdoms, created the Domesday book, and essentially founded the nation that would go on to be the most powerful nation on the planet without equals.
VintageLJ CharleMagne is more great. He founded three or four main European empires - France, Germany, Austria (Holy Roman Empire) and medieval Italy with Roman popes institution
OMG this has been an amazing series
я поражен. Как этот канал еще держится? я пишу это не в плохом смысле, а в том плане, что история сегодня так исковеркана что такие вещи сегодня банят просто с ходу. К примеру украинцам поддерживающим текущую политику Киева эти видимо крайне не понравятся. Будут страйки кидать, если уже не кидают/-ли.
This was really enjoyable, can't wait for the next one.
It's a historic mistake to name any territory' "Ukraine" before 1914. This name was never mentioned in any historic books or maps. East of Ukraine was called little Russia and West changed hands between a number of European countries. In other documentaries Germany is never mentioned until late 19th century and Italy too. Why such special treatment of Ukraine?
It could be referring to the region we know now as Ukraine.
Ukraine exist way beyond 1600s as "The Ukraine," literally mean "Borderland" or "Frontier."
On the Italian map of "European Tartaria" (1684). Dnieper Ukraine is marked as "Vkraine or the land of Zaporozhian Cossacks" (Vkraina o Paese de Cosacchi di Zaporowa). In the east there is "Vkraine or the land of Don Cossacks, who are subject to Muscovy" (Vkraina overo Paese de Cosacchi Tanaiti Soggetti al Moscovita).
Meanwhile, The oldest recorded mention of the word ukraina is found in the Kievan Chronicle under the year 1187:
ѡ нем же Ѹкраина много постона.(ō nem zhe Ukraina mnogo postona).
"The frontier (Ukraina) mourned a great deal for him." (Lisa L. Heinrich, 1977)
FINALLY! I thought it would never come!
Забыли упомянуть , что Петр Великий создал страйкбол)
This was worth the wait.
Glad to hear it! Thanks Chris.
Zaporozhian Cossacs never called themselves "Ukraines", they called themselves Russians, and followed Orthodox faith, and absolute majority of them were Russians peasant, who ran away from their aristocratic masters. Cossacs called "Ukraines" their enemies from Eastern Polland, Russians from Galych-Volynean princedom, who changed their fath to Catholic church, and both of these sides used every possible opportunity to fight against each other.
Also this region has become known as Eastern Ukraine only in Soviet Period, when occupation communist government decided to destroy old Russian culture, so one of their ideas was to transfer to Ukraine and "ukrainize" Western Russia also known as Novorossiya.
Great job love the videos keep it up :D
And then things got worse... And then things got worse...
Silly American stereotype, which is contrary to logic and common sense.
Commie Its based on an old Russian proverb.
Heng Wu And how does sound this "old Russian proverb"?
Commie "Сегодня хуже чем Вчера, но лучше чем Завтра"
This is not a joke, this is another silly mockery from the ignorant people, nothing more.
Awesome work! Keep it up!
People say that you can't invade Russia ground way. Well guess what, Poland and Mongols did that.
И где польша сейчас ???)))
Yes, but the Mongols are an exception. Its well-known.
Chris Forsyth
except, wait for it - the mongols
What is the Poland and Mongolia today?
Mongolia invaded 27 small states. It was more of a confederation than a whole country. Each of the states fought separately. The forces were usually 4:1, and Poland did not succeed
Amazing, as always! :D
part 3
Very well done. Keep it up!
