Den stora oredans tidEn gång i tiden, under det tidiga 1600-talet, hade svenska kungar ambitioner om att göra sig själva eller sina släktingar till rysk tsar. Detsamma gällde de polska kungarna, som i sin tur var de svenska kungarnas nära släktingar. Det hela är rörig, och då är det ändå ingenting mot den politiska röran i Ryssland som gjort att Östersjögrannarna börjat slipa sina knivar.Läslista:Smirnov, Alexej, Den svenske tsaren, Karneval förlag, Stockholm, 2017Hosking, Geoffrey, Ryssland: folk och imperium 1552-1917, Historiska media, Lund, 2003Lars...2023-03-191h 28The History of Russia PodcastThe History of Russia PodcastEpisode 58 - The Prince (Part 2)This week we’ll be taking a closer look at the Supreme Privy council, Plus we’ll get to see how Russia and Great Britain almost came to blows and how Menshikov managed to get his daughter engaged to a member of the established imperial family.To sign-up for membership of the Boyar Duma Go to the podcast website https://www.historyofrussia.netand visit the Membership Page or the Patreon Logo on the home page Or go to patreon.com/historyofrussia  Or download...2023-01-2723 minPeace In Their TimePeace In Their TimeEpisode 102 - New LivesPeacetime in the Soviet Union created an opportunity for social experimentation.

And to celebrate, here is a completely normal weekly episode. The Soviet Union wasn't built in a day, in fact it took five years for the Bolshevik leaders to finally hammer out the details as to the new nation. And that only happened after Lenin and Joseph Stalin clashed over the question of state power, a clash that was only settled by Lenin's declining health.    Bibliography for this episode:    Hosking, Geoffrey Russia and the Russians: A History The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press 2001 Figes, Orlando A People’s Tragedy: The Russi...2022-09-1128 minPeace In Their TimePeace In Their TimeEpisode 99 - Odds and Ends and MiseriesThe consequences of winning the Civil War at any cost came back to haunt the Bolsheviks, as it turned out the "any cost" meant millions of people starving to death in a gigantic famine.

The Bolsheviks very quickly realized that internal enemies in areas they controlled were a danger, and built-up their version of the secret police, the Cheka, to counter those enemies. They got out of hand.    Bibliography for this episode:    Hosking, Geoffrey Russia and the Russians: A History The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press 2001 Figes, Orlando A People’s Tragedy: The Russian Revolution 1891-1917 Penguin Books 1998 Smith, SA Russia in Revolution: An Empire in Crisis 1890-1928 Oxford University Press 2018 Fitzpatrick...2022-08-1429 minPeace In Their TimePeace In Their TimeEpisode 95 - The New StateRome wasn't built in a day, and neither was the Soviet Union.

Striking beyond its capabilities, Admiral Kolchak's White armies stalled out on the Volga. One determined Red Army counteroffensive later, and they were in a full retreat. The Siberian Whites, the biggest group of that faction and the one most supported by the Entente, fell apart like a... well, a house of cards.    Bibliography for this episode:    Hosking, Geoffrey Russia and the Russians: A History The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press 2001 Figes, Orlando A People’s Tragedy...2022-07-1727 minPeace In Their TimePeace In Their TimeEpisode 91 - The Gathering White StormThe opening moves of the 1919 campaigns saw action all across Russia once again, but this year opened with the White faction in a far stronger position.
