Interesting, but if it played bloody well slower it was easy to translate. Russia, as always, was ready to steal a warm seaportt, if not in the mMed from Turkey, the into the Indian Ocean through Afghanistan from the Raj, who stole it from the Indians.

@OGP69 Well, this was made to go one a history competition race, idk how to explain, but we had restrictions, so we had to be quick about it :}

[antonio7777777able]

@vioniribu Yes, romania could only join ottomans or Hitler nothing more, fucking gypsies. Only Russia+Ukraine was enough to take all world under control not only Turkey, the Sovie-Union was good example.

I wish there were English subtitles. I am a student from America and I'm particularly interested in 18th and 19th century Russian history.

Don't forget who saved the whole war ... The Bulgarians on Shipka! Less than 7500 Bulgarians vs 27 000 turks ....

be scared of the turks

[luckyStrike89ru]

@TurkishHegemony Well, the problems are more subtle like the Kosovo thing and stuff like that.

[TurkishHegemony]

@luckyStrike89ru nowadays there are no problems between russia and turkey tho

[luckyStrike89ru]

@TurkishHegemony I dont know of any real battles between Ottomans and Russians before 1500. Russia mostly fought the Livonian order, Tatar/Mongol Khanates, Poles, Swedes, you name it. Russia's history is written in wars and now every enemy it ever had is a bitch to it, starting from the Mongols :)

Compared to Turkey, Russia had a much more vulnerable neighborhood. European traitors from the West, Muslims from the south and Asians from the East. It was tougher for Russia.

[TurkishHegemony]

@luckyStrike89ru Uuh no, when Turks entered Anatolia the byzantines had more men in the battle of Manzikert, its no secret that Turks were winning every battle with russkies before the 16th century. Unfortunatly you werent our only enemies, we fought against enemies on all fronts: all the European dynasties, Persians, Mongols(came even to Anatolia), the Mamluks, north african tribes etc, we simply didnot have enough resources to rule them all

[luckyStrike89ru]

@TurkishHegemony Why are you lying? Turks always had more men in battles. Russians had better military tactics and military technology. Good that you mentioned Devleti Giray, he later got owned in the Battle of Molodi where 120,000 Crimean Khans and Ottoman Turks lost to 60,000 Russians and Russia wasn't even an Empire then. Turks and muslims could only attack defenseless people, when it came fighting real men, they always lost and now you're making up bullshit that "Russia had more men", fail.

[TurkishHegemony]

@luckyStrike89ru no, the only reason Russia won against us becoz they had huge numbers, just like how Germany fought against the soviets. I'm sure Russians didnt capture Istanbul for a reason, becoz they couldn't. Remember the Turks burned down Moscow in the 16th century with Devleti Giray

[luckyStrike89ru]

@msannn1 Yeah? Like they did all 9 other wars? Russia practically OWNED Turks since 1500s.

[luckyStrike89ru]

@TurkishHegemony Actually, Russia gave you mercy. It could've easily colonized Istanbul, they didn't. Russia defeated Turkey in almost EVERY war they fought. You have nothing to brag about in this situation. The only defense you have is that most people dont know about this series of wars(Russo-Turkish).
