Chronicles of Ukraine’s Fight and Resistance
Understanding how Muscovy became Russia requires a closer look at Peter’s decision. In the 13th century, when the Golden Horde arrived, it was a more advanced force. It encountered local tribes that were amorphous and backward. Several hundred years passed. The West moved forward in its development, while the Muscovites did not. Over time they […]
Everything must start from the moment when Moksha, Erzya, Ves, Muroma, and other peoples inhabiting the central regions of present-day Russia became some kind of unified community that later received the name “Muscovy”. In reality, those processes that Kyivan princes launched didn’t happen here. They independently pushed the borders of their state where it was […]
This continues the series of articles about the Russian-Chechen wars. See the previous publication here: first part and second part. The previous article told about events known as the “First Chechen War”. Already then it became clear that some general rules are not inherent to the Russian army in general and Russian military in particular. […]
This continues the series of articles about the Russian-Chechen wars. See the previous publication here. The next wave of the Russia Chechnya invasion, already by regular RF forces, came on New Year’s night from December 31, 1994, to January 1, 1995.

Russia lay in a semi-collapsed state, and the West provided humanitarian aid to the almost immobilized huge country. Back then there were no Maidans, no ATO, and nothing of what today’s […]
The past century unfolded in a confrontation between two political-economic realities — capitalist and socialist. The first resulted from centuries-long evolution of social relations. The second turned out to be an artificial and extremely aggressive phenomenon. Moreover, at the beginning, socialism looked like some vague theory. It described the next, post-capitalist period of human development. […]

A day is approaching that in the Sovok¹ and Russia is called “Victory Day in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–45.” In this pompous title, only two words are not outright lies: “day” and “war.” Everything else is part of the Patriotic War Lies that have been spread for decades, a blatant and shameless distortion […]
Hello. This site is dedicated to the participation of Ukrainian women in the war for independence of Ukraine (the war that began in 2014 and continues today).
