@MakichyanA I was not taught this in school because Armenian history is frankly far too unimportant to be taught in Russian schools
Yes, Azerbaijan would not exist without Russia, as it too was conquered by Russia from Persia
I asked you to address my points, not Azeri history
Russian colonialism is literally the main reason Armenia exists today. Russia conquered these lands from Persia and allowed Armenians to repatriate
Before that, because the Safavids had expelled the Armenians, they had been a minority in those lands for around 200 years
@StalkerGrunt1 You are using different dollar prices for each year. If you measure it in constant dollars (like 2015 prices), you will see the real GDP change
Не совсем, казачество из Украины и с юга России заселяло самые плодородные земли региона, отнимая их у местного населения
Однако масштабное насилие после казачьих завоеваний прекратилось. У 90% русских региона предки попали в Сибирь в ходе относительно мирной миграции
Крайне важный аспект колонизации Россией Сибири, кот��рый игнорируют ВСЕ и меня сейчас за этот тейк порвут, заключается в том, что в Сибири не было классических колонистов. Здесь были те, кто:
1. БЕЖАЛИ ОТ КРЕПОСТНИЧЕСТВА.
2. Были репрессированы.
3. Были депортированы.
@Jfrdydtdht The reality of the matter is that, to an average Chinese person, all Slavs are just Russians
And the region is based on a very stereotypical Chinese understanding of Russia: a big, strong, freezing cold empire that everyone thinks is bad, but is actually good
@PG12679846 С точки зрения генетики, раса - это антинаучное понятие, не основанное на реальных генетических данных. Но современные исследования действительно подтверждают близкое родство славянских и многих других европейских народов, если вы про это
Slavs weren't considered white for most of the time the concept of race has existed
Eastern Slavs experienced some of the worst racially motivated devastation in history. If the worst hadn't been prevented by the Red Army, it genuinely would have been the worst such case
6.) harassment and intimidation do not work on me, i do not care LOL
7.) white people (the race) have NEVER been oppressed for being white, groups of white ppl who have been oppressed historically were oppressed on the basis of culture, geography, ethnicity (NOT race!!)
@courtilz28486 Yeah, the belief in Nordic supremacy over other European peoples became popular later, peaking around the 1920s after the Bolsheviks won in Russia
@Narte_punished Хотя когда-то иммиграционная служба создавалась как раз после принятия закона Джонсона - Рида, ограничивавшего въезд для восточных и южных европейцев, которых авторы считали "биологически деградировавшими"
А сейчас, да, у них там проблемы с другими категориями мигрантов
@uisbg1 And that's besides the fact that not all Ruthenians and not all Malorussians came to identify as Ukrainians, so you can't simply substitute the two
Or that some places started to identify as Ukrainian after forceful Soviet actions. Some identified as Russian despite them
@MonPrimLemon I think in a scenario of Ukraine capturing Crimea(which is like a top 5 thing that won't happen, but let's imagine for a second), they will be granted some power in the republic to disrupt the will of ethnic Russian majority(maybe paralel government with veto right)
@MonPrimLemon I still don't understand why Wignats think a country legitimizing its claims to a majority-white region(Crimea) with the choice of Turkic minority(Crimean tatars) is "le based white country"
