Your map is wrong. Crimea is not part of Ukraine for 10 years. The citizens of Crimea are Russians for 10 years. No Ukrainian authority has something to say there for 10 years. And still you claim it is Ukrainian? You know the war right now happening there happens because of guys like you 😂.

Crimea is Russia and not Ukraine, prove me wrong.

@@L17_8 Do you find this to be an effective strategy? Proselytizing strangers in youtube comment sections?
@@urgadurga
Absolutely bizarre. This is peak bot behavior. I'd be more surprised if an actual person thought to write that.
Makes me even less interested in religion than I already was.
Except it isn't that simple. Ukraine is a buffer state and yet Russia invades in an attempt to push its borders to NATO's.
@@punishedvenomsnake716 Same! I was raised secular but within the past year I got a bible and wanted to look more into religion but every time I see these youtube proselytizers, I get kind of repulsed by the idea. I have to keep telling myself these guys dont represent the majority, but oh my is there a lot of them
This is a good question indeed
Belarus is maybe the least known from all the countries from the ussr in europe and in these days they follow whatever russia orders, making their independence just a mere formality, they're a russian province in all but name
So by your logic all the nato countries are American part because they follow Americans in doing whatever war crime they order them to do ?
Putin take advice from Belarusian President, Belarus Russian and Ukrainian are same people.
And Whenever Russia get invaded the invader always take a detour to commit genocide in Belarus too.
So this is why both are close
They aren't a province of Russia, they are Russia
Belarus is independent and sovereignt. Can't say the same about the ukranian slaves
@@StekTM1 You meant to say the true RUSSIAN SLAVES are the Belarusian Slavs who allow themselves to be governed by dictator Lukashenko since the early 90’s. Ukraine has always preferred freedom over being a Russian Serf.
@@StekTM1 They are actually so independent and sovereign, they can't even say no to daddy Vlad.
Ukraine on the other hand said no and continues to say no, but whatever helps you sleep, I guess.
If you did not know, Belarus In Finnish is "Valko Venäjä" which means White Russia.
In Estonia we call it "Valgevene" also meaning White Russia.
only other thing ive ever heard belarus be called was white ruthenia, thanks kaiserreich
I have some new for you, in Russian language it’s called «Беларусь» where part «Бела» means white and «русь» means Rus, so yeah, pretty much the same
poland as well, white rus
@@notlucas6859White Ruthenia is more correct yes. As Ruthenia refers to the Rus'. Ruthenia also means the same as Russia, but in modern times the name Russia is used by the Moscovite state.
What is interesting is that throughout its history, Belarus has been associated with Lithuania and Poland for much longer than with Russia. And all forms of merging between Russia and Belarus were compulsory rather than voluntary.
Lies Belarus been with Russia ever since Kievan Rus days way before Poland and Lithuania became commonwealth
@@JDDC-tq7qm Lies. Firts, Rus is not Russia! Second, Duchy of Polotsk was most of the time independent from Kiev. Chronology of Belarus: Rus (980-1190) => GDL (1240-1569) => PLC (1569-1795) => Russian Empire(1795-1917). 555 years of Lithuania+Poland vs 122 years of Russia. So, 555 vs 122.
Russia was always the mother of Jewkraine and Belarus and atleast Belarus didn't betray it
@@alechboy3578 Who betray who? No country in history has ever made any declarations of loyalty to Russia. These are just the delusions of a dwarf in the Kremlin.
@@rapturefuturistics1975us Greeks had been occupied by the ottomans for 4 centuries (in some places for even more) and we maintained our national consciousness thanks to our Orthodox values. Belarus also maintained its orthodox heritage which has always been closer to the Russian way of life than the Polish or anything western. We Greeks too have far more in common with Russia than with the west. This is why Serbs, Bulgarians and Greeks are so supportive of Russia. The barbaric west has destroyed us countless times afterall...
I think you meant why isn't Belarus part of Russia yet?

Thank you so much for this. Such an obscure country, but I really needed to know this and you made it easy to disgest.
Great content, but the maps are brutally inaccurate
I think Belarus has a shared history with the Polish Lithuania commonwealth. What not happened to Russia.
The other flag of Belarus with a horse shows how the country is connected to Lithuania.
I guess those countries may share some culture between them and maybe could be a little bit different from Russia.
The other sign that Belarus people doesn't feel they are Russian is that they didn't want to join Russia.
Many countries have many things in common, but don't want to join such as Slovenia and Czechia.
"The other flag of Belarus with a horse shows how the country is connected to Lithuania." The Grand Duchy of Lithunia is not the same as modern republic of lithuania. Lithuania just adopted the name faster.
*Slovakia, not Slovenia
Awesome! Thanks.
Very poor narration. You missing toons of episodes very important ones which acctually lead to certain points in time and you skipped tons of information about Kiev Rus how Bialorus and Big part of today Ukraine acctually was very strong part of Polish Lithuanian commonwealth for hundreds of years etc.

@@theMOCmasterthis is the worst "Belarusian" history documentary, it SUCKS ....
@@hybridarmyoffreeworld What all of you guys are forgetting, is that this "video" is aimed, largely toward an American audience, and American's aren't that "well educated" when it comes to international affairs, and foreign relations and geography in general.
For example, if you were to show the average American a map of the World and ask him to "point out Iraq for me please", I guarantee that less than 70% would get it right.
And it's even worse when it comes to somewhere like Vietnam. The numbers go up to more than 80%, particularly among younger people. They think that both "Africa" and "Europe" are individual Countries. Almost unbelievable.
Love your work but you didn't fully answer the question and left out a lot of key insights. Lukashenko was angling to run for President of Russia in 1999 as Yeltsin's health was declining, only for Putin's ascendance to scupper his plans. In addition, Lukashenko has pushed and pulled Belarus towards Russia's orbit to varying degrees based on his own agenda and maintaining his own power. There's much more to be said about the subject. Still, great work on the historical background!
Black Ruthenia wasn't the territory under Mongol occupation! It was the pagan mixed border with Lithuania, compared to the White Ruthenia Ruthenia already christianized, and it still exists nowadays and vaguely corresponds to the Grodno region.
Yes! There was slso the "Red Ruthenia" - modern day Western Ukraine (and some bits of South-Eastern Poland).
Afrocentrists be like: tHiS mEaNs tHeY wErE bLaCk
were they black African?or what?
The origins of those 'colorful' names of different regions of Rus/Ruthenia are unclear. If I recall, some suspect it was an influence of the Mongols and the associations they had with colors in their culture.
@@imamahmed208 The colors just were used to designate regions, some speculate they signify geographical directions

Interesting Background. Thanks.
Why should it? More important question is - why so many countries are still part of Russia
What happened to the other speaker? (He was the narrator of the immediately previous video.) Will he be back? I have watched quite a large number of videos from the Knowledgia channel, and I really enjoy his voice. He's got a great sarcastic sound.... LOL
This video does NOT explain WHY Belarus is not a part of Russia. It just tells you the history of the country without going into details.
1min this video is already wrong and skipped fuck ton of history
+1
It's just doing a general overview and the most notable stuff.
Putin asks himself that question every night.
You should make a video about the connections between the Bulgarian Empire, Byzantine Empire and the Russian Empire - and how they influenced each other.
It'll be a sad story. They eventually destroyed each other internally and externally
Nice video, but why does Russia own Kazakhstan?
if you google it all these pacs that russia/ putin has, is with countries with dictators that have been in power since the USSR collapsed.
war with georgia and Ukraine is cause they wanted to go their own ways into modern day peaceful western styles.
Because Russia are basically mongols and they conquered what's not theirs
They don't "own" Kazakhstan but they belong to the same commonwealth and security architecture.
Putin has questioned Kazakhstan being a country just as he has done so with Ukraine.
@@hajime2k I believe that is probably two lies for the price of one.
we learnt sthg thanx
You forgot to add “….yet” at the end of the title
Honestly, not bad, but the video more answered the question "Why Belarus is the Russian`s close friend?" but not why Belarus is the independent state, and not part of Russia, I need to recommend you to pay more attention on the period of the national Renaissance of the Eastern Slavic during the XIX-XX ct.
You have totally spotted on regarding Belarus being a country and being a neughbouring country of Russia ,good friend!!!I fully like Belarus extremely so much daily and ever and do want to visit there once in my lifetime,good friend!!!LONG LIVE BELARUS!!!🇧🇾

The Belarusian language is almost dead like the Irish language in Ireland. 70-80% of Belarusian people speak only Russian at home, and 99% of them speaks only Russian on the streets. Belarus was supposed to remain in Lithuania or Poland
Replacing one occupier with another, no thanks.
We don't want to be with lithuania. they are our historical enemy
@@rapturefuturistics1975Enjoy soon being a part of Russia then.
The answer is this: chronology of Belarus: Rus (980-1190) => GDL (1240-1569) => PLC (1569-1795) => Russian Empire(1795-1917). 555 years of Lithuania+Poland vs 122 years of Russia. So, 555 vs 122. During this 555 years, enough differences have formed on the territory of Belarus so that it does not feel like a common part with Russia. And 122 years as part of Russia could not change anything. Belarusians remembered the glorious times of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and wanted their own state.
Good math. Thanks. When Ukraine beats Ruzzia, Belarus will defect to the West too. But first things first. More aid to Ukraine.
I know a good doctor for your problems.
How did you manage to completely skip the 2020-2021 protest is beyond me.
Not to mention all of the previous waves of protest against Lukashenko, or many other "details" important for the history of Belarus, like the 1863 uprising (part of the bigger so-called January Uprising against the Russian Empire in the lands of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth), the BNR Rada - arguably the longest existing government in exile, and so on.
+1
because in the grand scheme of things these protests and uprisings are mundane. A bunch of old Polish Lithuanian royalists getting angry with the Czar isn't something worth noting.
@TeutonicEmperor1198 It's very convenient to dismiss history (and present), you clearly know next to nothing about and understand even less as not worthy of knowing and understanding.
@@Artur_M. well tell me that wasn't the case. Tell me that the 95% of the rebels weren't actually Polish Catholics but Orthodox Belarusian Nationalists who fought for their self determination etc. Please stop labouring under a delusion
@TeutonicEmperor1198 Maybe you should explain that to the actual Belarusian nationalists today because the largest of several units of Belarusian volunteers fighting for Ukraine (another thing not mentioned in this video) and probably the biggest foreign volunteer unit in Ukraine overall - the Kastuś Kalinoŭski Regiment is named one of the January Uprising's commanders and has the date 1863 on its banner.
Also, I love how you described the guys who were mostly young and progressive radicals and were supported at the time by both Garibaldi and Marx as "old royalists". Shows what an expert you are.
But OK, let's agree for the sake of an argument that the January Uprising is an irrelevant ancient history, which was just a Polish rebellion anyway (and that it doesn't matter haw Belarusians themselves view it). That still doesn't explain not mentioning the massive 2020-2021 protests, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, and the United Transitional Cabinet operating right now.
3:33 It is important to remember that Jogaila was married with said King of Poland
It'll happen sooner or later we just have to be patient.
7:55 - Who are those "Belarussians" and what is this "Belarussian language"? Is it some Moskovia invention? As a Polish person I know about Belarusians, but Belarussians is something completely new to me.
Propaganda victim..
As a Pole you are as always speaking nonsense
It's just that the western world is still dominated by outdated names from the USSR times when the world received knowledge about the USSR states through the Russian language. Byelorussia or Belorussia really does not exist since 1991, as the official name of the state is the Republic of BELARUS! This is the only name adopted by the UN and also by Belarusian state documents translated into English.

Because Belarusians like Ukrainians are not Russians. Similar but not the same, like how Estonians are similar to Finns and Austrians are similar to Germans. All 3 have different languages. Even though Putin would love to force them all to only learn Russian.
En Austria se habla alemán, no existe el idioma austriaco
@@thedharex Est-ce qu'on est Allemand seulement parce qu'on parle Allemande? ou faut-il plus de raisons? Si oui, quelles en sont les raisons?
The terms you are using have little real meaning. Belarus best interests economically, culturally and militarily is to be allied with Russia. They would be ravaged, pillaged and extinguished by the EU. Historically, the majority of Belarusians and Ukrainians are ethnically Russian but were long occupied by Polish, Lithuanian, Swedish and Austrian empires. Both "national" languages are versions of Russian pidginised chiefly with Polish. Must everybody who has endured occupation abandon their true history forever after?
Poland always remembers who the real Grand Duchy of Lithuania is!
Mindaugas was the first king of Lithuania, he united the Lithuanian tribes and expanded into the territories of modern Belarus, which were only fully covered by later rulers. The development of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the relationship between its peoples is a complex topic. But naming Mindaugas as the pioneer of Belarusian statehood is misleading.
I never heard of there being any Lithuanians at the battle of Kulikov field. I think they better take a second look at their sources. Or maybe Mamay of the Golden Horde did have some Lithuanian mercenaries, but certainly it is not enough to say that “the Lithuanians” were defeated there.
Lithuania came too late to help actually
how you didn't include 2020 protests?
Biela is a wrong interpretation of the old scandic word Huit.
Meaning wide.
But for un scilled in the old "Hels Anger Scandinavic language",
the words kvit and huit sounds equal for a untrained ear.
This type of missinterpretation is also rather usual in the north of "Sweden" and Norway, Russia, and Finland of today.
Its alike the missinterpretation of the old "scandic" word of Vin, as in Vinland, Finland, and many more.
The meanining of this is "pastures for the feding of animals".
And not "Vine".
Belarus not being a part of Russia would probably be due to differences in society.
More like a buffer state for Russia. Belarus is practically a Russian satellite state. Ukraine has/had close to 40 millions people. Belarus has maybe 8 million.
TL;DR: because of the power of friendship (money) and because satelite states are easier to govern. Hooray
Because putin refused to allow Lukashenko have a turn as aternating president of a united country

It can be anytime Putin wants, but perhaps he and Lukhashenko agreed, to wait to grab Ukraine first as it would be, otherwise, too obvious to the international community what Putin always wanted: the restore of the Russian Empire. Actually, Ukraine is the critical piece in this reconstruction. I mean, the whole Ukraine, not just some pieces of it, like Crimea and Donbass.
I thought Belarus was reluctant to work together and worsened relations between them and Russia because of the war on Ukraine?
Same reasons Ukraine and Bulgaria are not part of Russia. They are similar, have ancestral and historical ties, but are not the same culture and language.

Maybe because, when the Soviet Soviet Union broke up, they wanted to be in a rather loose confederation rather than a be a part of Russia. I think they made the right choice.
The same reason that ucraine, lithuania, latvia, estonia, finland, polen....... nov are own states.
Russia gave them free.
Well, no, you want to tell the history of Belarus and you don't say that Lithuania was the first Belarusian state? Belarusians were called Lithuanians by Muscovites. The language of the chancellery of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was Belarusian. The Bible in Belarusian was published in 1517 and Orthodox Christianity was practiced by the peasantry and nobility. The greatest magnate of the Polish-Lithuanian union, Prince Ostrogski, was Orthodox. Catholicism was limited exclusively to today's ethnic Lithuanians. Catholicism began to take hold of the Belarusian nobility after the war of 1654-67, when Russia invaded, murdered or deported more than half of the population of Lithuania-Belarus.
West Belarus was once of Ruthenian ethnicity. The men wore mustaches as opposed to Russian men who wore beards. Unfortunately the Belarusian Ruthenians were exterminated by Operation Barbarossa in 1941 and today Belarus is 50% Russian immigrants and 30% Kazakhs which were brought over in 1946 for reconstruction works. A large percentage is Gypsy and the rest Jews.
Armenia is realy f'cked up by this aliance!
Ждем когда Была-Русь вернется в Стала-Русь😊
Ukraine and Belarus have their own history that is seperate from Russia. In fact the countriest are more successors to ancient Rus than Russia itself.
Ukr and Belarus had occupied by Lithuania and Poland then were freed by Russia.
@@am3177 Did you know that Old Belarusian became the official language of Lithuania? Did you know that Orthodoxy was the main religion?it was also a time when Belarus flourished. Lithuanians became the ruling the dynasty, but they were not occupiers like Russia is..
2022 or 2023 were the economic systems of russia ans belarus unititet into one.
I do not know... For tactical reasons!? Even both have same quite identical ethnicity roots in time, same as Ukrainians...
It's a simple relationship of daddy and daughter.
It is
the fact that they are speaking less Belarussian is worrisome
People choose the language that best suits their purpose. Belarusian won't get you far in this world in the east nor in the west.

Maybe if the French and the Germans teamed up to invade Russia together it might work out differently this time?
You know, third time’s the charm kinda thing?
It was an informative and wonderful explanation video about relationships between Russia 🇷🇺 and Belarusia strategically and historically
Belarus
Good try, but it's a very shallow and Muscovy-biased sight on the history of Belarus
Tucker Carlson: “Why did you invade Ukraine?”
Putin:
Ukraine: Payback's a bitch.
Simply in my view they have just worked along better with their parent country Russia and the more obvious thing is they have resisted multiple attempts by the US/west at a color revolution unlike certain nearby countries since 2014
"Parent country" lol? Russia isn't Belarus's parent. You could say they are sisters, both descended from the Kyivan Rus' and before the war and 2014 you could have included Ukraine in this too.
@@dylanvogler2165 your point is correct but i'm speaking more from the context of during the soviet union era.
Normal people: "Why isn't Belarus a part of Russia?"
NATO: "Why is Belarus a part of Russia?"
With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher
👏👏👏👏👏
Because Poland will lose their shit. Again.
If you want to do history, learn what you want to say!
The map of soviet Russia is wrong
History shouldn’t be changed based on sentiments
