Slavs are more than poles and Russians
Southern Slavs attended the meetings
They want independence
The meeting was unanimous in wanting a pan Slavic state, but it had no binding legal power
If Slavs don't want to colonize how did Russia become the biggest country on Earth by colonizing?
What was said 100 years ago has no bearing on what the current generation wants
They didn't "colonize" smh
They literally did.
They repelled the Mongols and then went further
They always do this
...
They waited hundreds of years to push back???
The colonization of Siberia was in no way defensive.
It was pure imperialism, everyone was doing it.
And yes there were people there.
Uniting your people <:unequal:473954748517842954> colonization
????
They are Asian!
But there were no Russians east of the Urals.
The uniting happened west of the Urals.
they didn't conquered east of the Urals, they were trying to flee from the baby eating Kraut
As for Eastern eurals, it's not to the extent of the westerners, and it is directly connected to Russia, the westerners went to foreign land.
The conquest of Siberia was commercial to control the fur trade, and it started off as retaliatory to Tatar raids.
Fuck this braindead revisionist uniting muh people garbage
Read a book.
oh, i forgot how much money fur trade made
The claim that Russians didn't want to control shitskins is pretty moronic because a primary facet of Siberian colonization was exacting tribute from natives.
Sounds like communist Propaganda but ok
No, it's history that was established before the Bolsheviks even existed.
You just don't read.
No where near the extent of shitskinning the westerners did
No it's actually often compared to it.
Look at the Russian land mass. Also don’t forget Alaska was once part of Russia.
Russia did the same thing to natives that other Europeans did.
I've never seen it compared to western colonization.
Doing that to natives is natural, it's not immediately equal to muh colonization
If anything the existence of Russian fur traders is a myth. The Russians coerced natives into paying a fur tax rather than getting it for themselves. While natives died of disease and genocide settlers replaced them and started getting fur for themselves.
Why is it not colonization? Have you never heard of Vladivostok?
Does that city just not exist to you?
The Russians colonized Siberia.
