despite the fact that combat operations were taking place just outside, I slept for a little over two hours.

I slept too much! Thousands of Kirow airships are already flying towards Chernihiv at full speed! You need to evacuate urgently!!1 In a couple of years, they will almost reach it!
A-a-a! Steal, kill! Apocalyptic romance! x)

yes, those on the edge were unlucky). The Chinese will kill these ones, and then... well, the Americans will come through Europe, haha.

we, Nicholas II

we, Nicholas II

Do you mean his resemblance to Grand Duke Dmitry Medvedev?

in any case, the British Empire is in the winning position.

Hmm, and Kolya looks like one of the guys from that TV series...

The British lost all their colonies and now, like in the old days, are crammed onto their little island (but not in an economic sense...) x) And why is that? They should have focused on conquering everyone instead of establishing colonies:smile04: And here's another meme:

This is Red Alert 4

The British lost all their colonies and now, as in the old days, are huddled on their little island.

What? Britain has always been and remains the greatest country in the world! The USA is a colony of Britain; the cunning British secretly operate through it, while remaining clean! The USSR was a colony of Britain; or how else do you think the Bolsheviks came to power? And now, of course, all the top leadership of this country is directly subordinate to Her Majesty! China is divided into spheres of influence, and the tastiest piece of the Chinese pie belongs to the British! Practically the whole world is, one way or another, subordinate to the British Crown! All hail Britain!

Something happened while I was out picking mushrooms? Did we start a war with China? And I'm wondering why there's no newspaper, and Zubr is probably already on the front lines... Damn, that's a shame.

Britain will never become a global empire, and China will never expand beyond the Great Wall. The laws of History operate as relentlessly as the law of gravity.

"We will never die, because we are big and strong. We will rule the world..." - thought the dinosaur. What the heck are these "laws of history," when I was in school, the history textbooks were rewritten five times? No, I think there are no laws at all... And the Great Wall of China is no better than the Berlin Wall... And what does it mean that "Britain will not be a world empire" - if they want to and try, they will be! Is it necessary for them?

Front. The First Hours. The Shelter.

It all started so suddenly that it's hard to describe. I was woken up by explosions, gunshots, people screaming outside the window. For about five minutes I was stunned, unable to understand what was happening. Then I heard the door to my apartment burst open with a bang, and two soldiers entered my room. I couldn't make them out; the last thing I saw at that moment was the butt of a rifle hitting me in the head.
I don't know exactly how much time passed, but it was already dark. The moon outside the small window was evidence of that. I was tied up, a gag in my mouth. I found about fifty others like me. Time passed slowly. I had absolutely no idea what to do. Fear consumed my body. One of the soldiers came up to me and then shouted something in English to his comrade. He came over too. A moment... just one moment. Shots rang out. The soldiers standing in front of me fell dead. A firefight began. I couldn't do anything, couldn't understand anything. My liberators, as I later found out, were far more numerous than the enemy soldiers. But "ours" died in much greater numbers. Many more. Ordinary civilians and police officers posed practically no threat to well-trained military men.
We were taken to "Ecomarket," formerly a huge grocery supermarket located under a shopping mall, now our shelter.
There is enough supplies here to survive. Weapons — as many as we could carry — were brought from the military base and police stations. Weapons are issued to almost everyone. Even I got a knife and an old Makarov pistol.
I don't know what happened to my family, friends, acquaintances.
Every minute feels like an eternity. What will happen next is unknown to anyone. What is happening in the world is also unknown.

P.S. In the "Ecomarket", there is a computer and internet access. I was given the opportunity to write about the current situation and the fact that I am safe, to the people closest to me, that is, to you, dear HeroesWorld members.

No need to argue, you made a good point: textbooks change, but the laws of history remain the same. People just want to believe that they are the creators of history. And for the Chinese, there is no greater enemy than the Chinese themselves. And the British, as they were pirates from the islands, they remain so. Whether you call them gentlemen or privateers.

I'm not arguing. I just don't understand what historical laws are at play here, I honestly don't get it. :) I wasn't a good student in 10th and 11th grade, I skipped a lot of classes. Revan, I hope you have a camera with you?
