I’m sorry I’m playing TGAA and can someone please tell me if herlock stays this irritating the whole game because I cannot fathom why so many people like him if he’s like this.. no hate cause maybe he gets better but can someone explain why people like him so much he’s so confidently wrong about everything his ego is just massive with no justification??? You literally have an entire part of the game that’s just correcting his fuck-ups and him taking credit for it

Like am I missing something??? Cause I’ve never seen anyone bring this up please someone tell me if he gets more palatable again I’m not trying to hate on people who like him but I just do not get it

Personally, I think if you describe yourself as a socialist and also have a bust of Vladimir Lenin's head in your house, I should be allowed to smash that bust over your head with no consequences.

What are the divisions of the Russian Empire doing during the war?

"On 1 September 1914, after the outbreak of World War I, the Imperial government renamed the city Petrograd, meaning "Peter's City", to remove the German words Sankt and Burg." "...the beginning of the First World War there were 12 military districts remaining: Dvinsk, Irkutsk, Caucasus, Kazan, Kiev, Minsk, Moscow, Odessa, Omsk, Petrograd, Amur and Turkestan."

Also based on wikipedia articles ,this map and grafic!

🇮🇷🇷🇺 🚨 🔥NEW SHAHED/GERANIUM DRONES DEVELOPED BY IRAN FOR RUSSIAN FORCES OPERATING IN UKRAINE🔥

Two new varieties of Shahed drones have been developed by Iran, which are expected to be used by Russian Forces operating in Ukraine.

According to the source:

A new variety “Geranium” has been developed for Ukraine

Iran has unveiled a new kamikaze drone, the Shahed-238, local media reported.

More precisely, there are three versions: with an inertial system and GPS (like the Shahed-136), with an infrared/optical guidance system (something like the Lancet), and on the left - with a radar homing head, which makes this model a nightmare for systems Air defense with radar.

The technical characteristics of the Shahed-238 have not been disclosed, but it is known that it is equipped with a jet engine. That is, it will fly faster, although perhaps closer.

The human cost of the evil French Revolution. We are still feeling its effects in the 21st century.

“They also estimate that in just under five days, 1,500 people died at the hands of Parisian mobs during the 1792 September massacres.

More broadly, around 170,000 civilians died in the civil Wars of the Vendée, while more than 700,000 French soldiers lost their lives across the 1792-1815 period.

The vast majority of these people killed were ordinary French men and women, not members of the elite.

Overall, Greer estimates 8.5% of the Terror’s victims belonged to the nobility, 6.5% to the clergy, and 85% to the Third Estate (meaning non-clerics and non-nobles). Women represented 9% of the total (but 20% and 14% of the noble and clerical categories, respectively).”

Had a sudden urge and vision of calling my crush "mon cheri" and kissing his hand?? 😅 I don't even speak French and haven’t studied it in a year.

This is the kind of shit you have to deal with if you date me lol. Randomly channeling my inner early 1900s gay man.

"...the harsh, materialistic and 'nihilistic' criticism of the 1860s and 1870s is due not merely to the change in economic and social conditions ... but in at least equal measure to the prison walls within which Nicholas I had enclosed the lives of his thinking subjects. This led to a sharp break with the polite civilisation and the non-political interests of the past, to a general toughening of fibre and exacerbation of political and social differences. ... In due course there emerged a vast and growing army of practical revolutionaries, conscious - all too conscious - of the specifically Russian character of their problems, seeking specifically Russian solutions. ... Henceforth the Russian radicals accepted the view that ideas and agitation wholly unsupported by material force were necessarily doomed to impotence ... The experience obtained by both sides in the struggle during these dark years was a decisive factor in shaping the uncompromising character of the later revolutionary movement in Russia."

Emergence of the Professional Revolutionary

Pyotr Tkachev, 19th century revolutionary theorist - read closely by Lenin.

'Nineteenth-century Europe witnessed the emergence of professional revolutionaries, intellectuals who devoted themselves full-time to studying the history of past upheavals in quest of tactical guidelines, analyzing their own time for signs of coming upheavals, and, once they occurred, stepping in to direct spontaneous rebellion into conscious revolution.

Such radical intellectuals saw the future as marked by violent disturbances, and progress as requiring the destruction of the traditional system of human relations. Their objective was to set free the "true" human nature suppressed by private property and the institutions to which it gave rise.

Radical communists and anarchists imagined the coming revolution as thoroughly transforming not only every political and socio-economic order previously known, but human existence itself. Its aim, in the words of Leon Trotsky, was "overturning the world."'
