Russian Empire

#9
Auto-translated
I am more interested in what would have happened to modern Russia if, after all the revolutions and the civil war, one of the liberal parties had concentrated power in its hands. I think their methods of overcoming the post-war crisis and their approaches to industrialization would have been different, and their relations with the West would have been completely different too...

It is also interesting to imagine what the political map of the world would look like if, during the intervention, the Japanese had annexed our Far East.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.


G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal
