«Грозный» - прилагательное, образованное от слова «гроза», для лучшего понимания оригинального значения слова, можно представить человека из какой-нибудь художественной сцены, с появлением которого небо охватывают тучи с дождём, а по небу распространяются раскаты молний с громом, лицо которого сурово и под величественным взглядом которого, все опускают глаза и головы.
Ah, how I love a relaxing afternoon of digital painting with these fascinating biographies playing. I always felt kind of sorry for Ivan, since he apparently had a rough childhood. And for Anastasia dying, because he seems to have truly loved her. And from everything I've learned about Ivan, it really seemed the best part of him died with her.
The nickname "Terrible" was given to him by England, in Russia it's Grozny which translates to Formidable and Fearsome, this word twisting from historians is nothing new as they often seen Rus as barbaric and dirty state.
@@BoudiccasGhost That's one of the myths around it as well, and all of this got sucked out of painting that was done 300 years after his death. According to historians, his son was sick and died naturally.
Actually, no. «Гроза» (the noun of «Грозный») means (thunder)storm in Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Czech, Bulgarian, Slovak or Slovenian… but it also means “horrible” in Polish, Croat, Serbian… Anyhow, it was not an uncommon sobriquet for rulers during Middle Ages and there are a few examples (eg his grandad Ivan III) that also had this sobriquet. I agree with an earlier comment that today we mainly know this particular tsar to have this sobriquet due to the famous 19th century painting. A bit like your dose of history through Hollywood nowadays. Not claiming to be a fact, but a plausible theory is that the sobriquet «грозный» was first used during what is known as Time of Troubles, used to rally the Russians vs Polish, who at the time occupied Moscow. There seems to be little evidence that Ivan IV ever used or was known by this sobriquet during his lifetime, even after the death of his son.
Actually Vladimir was the most powerful principality of Rus when Mongols arrived, not Novgorod. Hence, the transfer of the grand prince seat in 1155 from Kiev to Vladimir. Novgorod (although prominent throughout) plays a critical role after the mongols initial conquest, as the one part of Rus to be too far from Mongol main invasion route, be able to make a vassalage deal and thus be a rallying point to preserve Rus culture. Alexander Nevsky and posterior Novgorod emergency as a free trade city (part of Hanseatic league) all happen after mongols laid ruin to much of the Rus.
I didn't know that so much of Ivan's rule involved religion. What fascinates me about the documents on this channel is, while pure objectivity is not possible, each and every documentary strives to give a balanced presentation of people who are almost never cut and dried. This is a perfect example.

Terrible is a terrible translation of the Russian word grozny, which implies “terrible” but in the sense of “awe-inspiring” or “terrifying” rather than bad.
No I think formidable is a better word. Do you really have little to no clue what the world was like back then and that it was a conquer or be conquered world... for him to be a terrible czar, he would have just sat around doing nothing and let all these people be conquered by the Ottomans... And if that had happened you would live in a very different world today, you see the Arabian Peninsula was one of the most advanced places on Earth for quite some time and when they adopted a specific new religion all of their scientific medical mathematics all of those Innovations went down the hole, and we have the Islamic world that we know now..... if Ivan didn't do what he did there is a chance that the Ottomans would have kept spreading and spreading and spreading all throughout Europe and you would still be living a stone age existence,,, seriously that place is the birth of Western Civilization so why is it that 100 years ago they were still living like they were 2000 years ago...... they were doing awesome up until about 1500 years ago...... the Eau is the way it is right now because they are billionaires crawling out of the Stone Age, their ethics their laws their mindset has not growing alongside the technology,, and the most heartbreaking thing and I will repeat it again is that at one time that part of the world was the leader technological innovation and Society.....
I'm currently reading about "IvanThe Terrible", and I disagree with that analogy. I believe he would have had some health concerns with his mental health at the time of his rein and also felt great sorrow and suffering as a result of losing his wife Anastasia etc. He was indeed in my opinion a great Zar who like all leaders at some point made some unsavoury choices and decisions. Thank you for helping me better understand the novel I'm reading about him; now I understand it much better. I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your channel that I came across today and subscribed straight away. I am an avid lover of history and I will be viewing all of your content. Finally, I have something beautifully narrated and intellectual on UA-cam that I can sing my teeth into with great wonder and sheer pleasure. You, sir, are brilliant!!
The meaning of “Terrible” has evolved considerably since the English chose that word as the interpretation of the Russian word “Грозный.” The word more closely aligns now with our current use of “fearsome.” Words like “terrible” and “awesome” then had more to do with things that inspired divine terror and awe. Hundreds of years later, “terrible” now means “worst” or “least capable.”
I cannot imagine his horrible up bringing and how isolated and lonely he might have felt. Thank god I wasn’t born in his condition as I would have gone bunkers…
Love your voice and pronunciation! Thank you for Mos"ko" and not Mos"cow" as many Americans will insist on calling the city. Also for "Mooslam" and nos MUSlim!! A pleasure listening to you.

I am having difficulties understanding the narrator's English accent, but I always appreciate the channel's posts, information, and attention to detail! 🎉
@31:42 The Russians were late to the shores of the Black Sea. İvan extended the Russian state, what was it before? Banderites take note. Current conflict doesn't take into account who was there long before İvan was a twinkle in his dads eye
For me, the most authoritative (video) history of Russia has been the "Rurik" documentary series, produced for Russian television. This is a well-researched video to be sure, and I wonder if some of the information came out of that earlier series. For Russian history, I tend to lean more toward what the Russians have to say about it rather than purely Western sources. But hey, I really like this channel.
Rite... Some people have no idea about history and it shows.. Without Ivan and without Vlad we could be living in a very different world a world with no internet heck maybe even a world with no North America... wouldn't it be funny if a certain religion of Peace LOL AKA keeping everybody back in the Stone Age, had free run over the old world for as long as they want only to be discovered by technologically advanced people from North America,,, the world could be a very very different place,,,
An extra poignant comment given the political situation around the black sea. Both Russians and Ukrainians claim Crimea when in reality it was Turkic centuries before Ivan was a twinkle in his dad's eye. İt appears that Crimea is actually a land belonging to the Tartars. Look at a timeline of events and make the Suleyman video. Research the history of the black sea and work your way North. You'll find a lot went on long before Catherine the German showed up on the scene
@@UltraFedus true which is why we like history with all its twists & turns. Byzantium was Eastern Rome made up Romans & Greek. We were talking about Slavs fighting each other needlessly over Crimea which was Byzantine then turkish then imperial Russia.
There is a curious theory . That Ivan the Terrible is a descendant of the leaders of the opposing armies in the Battle of Kulikovo Field in 1380 . Obviously his ancestor was Grand Duke Dmitry Donskoy. And there is an assumption that the Glinsky family (respectively, Elena Glinskaya, Ivan's mother) comes from Beklarbek of the Golden Horde of Mamai, the leader of the Horde in that battle. Существует интересная теория. Что Иван Грозный является потомком лидеров противоборствующих армий в битве на Куликовом поле 1380 года . Очевидно его предком был Великий князь Дмитрий Донской. И существует предположение что род Глинских (соответственно Елены Глинской матери Ивана) происходит от Беклярбека Золотой Орды Мамая.
@@ثامرالعراقي-ذ3كI am not an expert on the history of the Glinsky family, not a historian to assert anything. I perceive this version in the feeling of a "What a twist"- meme. 🙃
The real nickname of Ivan the 4th is “formidable”. In foreign publications they call him "Terrible".The word "formidable" means "fair and harsh", and is not synonymous with "nightmarish"
@@gavingreenhorn"Гардариками" скандинавы начали называть Русь (хотя изначально только северные земли Руси) с 12 века. Сами же вдумайтесь в значение этого слова. Гардарики - страна городов. В 9 веке городов на Руси явно было не так уж и много)
just a heads up - the sobriquet “the terrible” isn’t really a mistranslation. It’s more that the meaning of the word has changed by now. Same situation with “great”. Now it means good but it used to more commonly mean formidable just like terrible did. Or awful, which used to mean awe inspiring and now just means bad or poor quality.
Ivan Terable is 3th Slavic Emperator .First is Simeon the Great from Bulgaria 🇧🇬 913 ..2 is Stefan Dushan Mighty 1346 Serbia 🇷🇸 3th is Ivan Terable is Great Ruler for Russia 🇷🇺. GREAT video .Good luck from Chanel like 👍
Great video - Ivan The Terrible has certainly gone down in history as one of the greatest villains of all time. Huge figure in world and Russian history.
Would you please consider doing a video vídeoon the Spanish Inquisition? I am currently reading "The End Of The Inquisition" ; A trilogy. I would love to hear you narrate this very important part of history and also at the beginning of "The Roman Empire". 😉
The Western history of Russia, which no one in the West knows about. Where did you get the origin of the word Rus? Nonsense. Yes, with this approach, I can count half of the world among Russian roots.
You guys are so funny, but still you come here and constantly watch all these videos about the terrible rulers of Russia. I think you are simply interested in learning about a civilization that, in the course of history, destroyed the Swedish Empire, the French Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the 3rd Reich, and along the way did not notice the rest of the small states. You just want to understand the nature of this element, which can destroy you at any moment. Therefore, enlighten yourself
I have looked and looked but I cannot find the map you showed at 22:00 anywhere. Google reverse image search pulled up nothing. So I’m dying 😂 what source/site did you pull it from or better yet does it have a name?
Even though out of european monarchs i hope to see Spanish, Austrian, Dutch and Prussian the most. I feel like after Roman empire Russian empire might be the most popular and will bring more views than those.
@CombatdocumentedFun fact: Poland was best friends with Germany. Two countries signed the pact of political, economical and military cooperation in 1934, then in 1938 they combined their forces to invade and annex Czechoslovakia, which started WW2.
Dominant regional power? It's debatable. Polish - transilvanian troups had beaten heavily papa Ivan. Almoust nobody knows about that. And they did it in a winter campain.
Actually, you wouldn't notice that it's bad, if you didn't know better. Of course if you torn out of our time and placed there, it would be horrible, but if you was born there, your perception would be different. Today we live in the most prosperous society in history, even poorest of people have the abundance of different food, but people still complaining and are not happy. The role of circumstances is highly overrated, unlikely people were significantly more or less happy back then.
I think for the most part sometimes the titles of known autocratic or harsh rulers were given not by their supporters, but mostly by people who are critical of their actions whether it is deserving or not. Similarly, "the terrible" might be given to Ivan colloquially, which eventually stuck through the ages. Another historical figure who also had the same fate is Caligula (his actual name is Gaius Caesar) a name given to him by his detractors which in time, just stuck. But either way, in the end, what they did is the most important aspect of their legacy, affecting people's lives until today.
great video. when you take a closer look at the time he lived and what was happening around him, i think and believe the title is a unjust for the most part. i think Stalin makes him look good.
And let's look at the good European rulers: During his reign, King Charles IX executed approximately 33 thousand people who were objectionable to him. Kindness itself! King Henry VIII of England . During his reign, Henry executed 72 thousand people. In addition to numerous mistresses, he had 6 official wives, two of whom he also executed, accusing of witchcraft. An educator in one word!!! Queen Elizabeth I of Ireland and England was called "Great" by Europeans, and grateful English merchants, whom she patronized, were nicknamed "Good Lizzie" During her reign, Elizabeth I executed 89 thousand people. By all accounts, Ivan the Terrible executed from 6 to 8 thousand people. But he is the only one who is bad and formidable!!! European double standards.....
@@russianthotbot6997 Yes, and he also ate babies for breakfast. He played the balalaika. And drank vodka with bears. ))) It is very convenient for you to believe in your own truth! And you turn a blind eye to your evil!
no one says Charles IX and Henry VIII are good💀 they’re among the worst, actually. And as for Elizabeth, I really dislike her, and don’t think she was great at all, but she didn’t have 89 thousand people executed💀
Not really. I am telling you this as a Russian student of the history of his country and Europe. If we compare Ivan the Terrible in terms of cruelty with other rulers of Europe of that time, then Ivan the Terrible will seem like a fluffy rabbit in comparison.
Ivan IV Vasilyevich, also known as Ivan the Terrible, was the first ruler to be officially crowned as Tsar of All Rus in 1547. However, he was not the first individual in history to bear the title "Tsar." The term "Tsar" derives from the Latin word "Caesar," a title used by Roman emperors, symbolizing supreme authority and sovereignty. The earliest recorded use of this title in a Slavic context was by Tsar Simeon I of Bulgaria, also known as Simeon the Great. He declared himself Tsar in 913, during the height of the First Bulgarian Empire, following successful campaigns and the expansion of his realm. Simeon's adoption of the title signified his aspiration to position Bulgaria as a cultural and political successor to the Byzantine and Roman Empires.
Yes! Ugliest things ever on television. Male lips with facial hair above and below? And the faces with their mouths open wide? Give us a break. What were you thinking?
Peter I reigned from 1721 to 1725 as Emperor of Russia but before that he reigned as Tsar from 1682 until 1721 before adopting the title of Emperor. So technically his reign was from 1682 to 1725
tsar,come,from First Bulgarian tsardom,from first tcar Boris and later tcar Simeon,and yes,equal to latin emperor,not king,as the slavic alfabet to,and those old slavic in churches is old bulgarian.I understand him,even i am night shcool student and never learn this .Healt and happynes for all :)

just a heads up - the sobriquet “the terrible” isn’t really a mistranslation.
It’s more that the meaning of the word has changed by now. Same situation with “great”. Now it means good but it used to more commonly mean formidable just like terrible did. Or awful, which used to mean awe inspiring and now just means bad or poor quality.
I'm not sure that this is right, at 26:47
Well presented

Ivan Terable is 3th Slavic Emperator .First is Simeon the Great from Bulgaria 🇧🇬 913 ..2 is Stefan Dushan Mighty 1346 Serbia 🇷🇸 3th is Ivan Terable is Great Ruler for Russia 🇷🇺. GREAT video .Good luck from Chanel like 👍
Ivan wasn’t an emperor, he was grand prince of moscovy and later self proclaimed tsar of Russia. Russia was proclaimed an empire by Peter I in 1721.

Elizabeth I also had a secret police as did many other monarchs of that time and they're all still around today not just in Russia.
Great video - Ivan The Terrible has certainly gone down in history as one of the greatest villains of all time. Huge figure in world and Russian history.
compared to Henry the Eighth he is a kind, innocent boy
Haha yes you might be right - different times too.
Can you please do Mary Surratts
Great video ‼️‼️Would love to see one about Marcus Garvey and Bob Marley🇯🇲 🇯🇲
Would you please consider doing a video vídeoon the Spanish Inquisition? I am currently reading "The End Of The Inquisition"
; A trilogy. I would love to hear you narrate this very important part of history and also at the beginning of "The Roman Empire". 😉
The Western history of Russia, which no one in the West knows about. Where did you get the origin of the word Rus? Nonsense. Yes, with this approach, I can count half of the world among Russian roots.
This narrator's voice sounds so similar to Paul Brodie's from the "Well I never" youtube channel. Might be just the accent, but still.

I understand that he got that name at his first violin recital . His mother told him " stop Ivan your terrible ".

You guys are so funny, but still you come here and constantly watch all these videos about the terrible rulers of Russia. I think you are simply interested in learning about a civilization that, in the course of history, destroyed the Swedish Empire, the French Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the 3rd Reich, and along the way did not notice the rest of the small states. You just want to understand the nature of this element, which can destroy you at any moment. Therefore, enlighten yourself
I have looked and looked but I cannot find the map you showed at 22:00 anywhere. Google reverse image search pulled up nothing. So I’m dying 😂 what source/site did you pull it from or better yet does it have a name?
That map is from the “Dungeons and Dragons” it’s an encampment that leads to home of the invisible elves 🧝♀️ in the forest 😂.
the Terrible has to be the coolest last name I’ve ever heard.
It's not a last name, but a soubriquet. Sort of like the Lion-hearted wasn't Richard I's last name.
Have you heard of Boaty McBoatface or McLovin ?

I NEED AN SPOTIFY VERSION
Even though out of european monarchs i hope to see Spanish, Austrian, Dutch and Prussian the most. I feel like after Roman empire Russian empire might be the most popular and will bring more views than those.
Wow I love 5hese history hope when I get my son or daughter they grow up and come to like history like me God save 5he 🤴 ✊🏾
Fun fact: Ivan the terrible was the favorite tsar of Joseph Stalin.
@Combatdocumented 😂😂
@Combatdocumented They are two sides of every story.
That figures!😮
The first Stalin for sure
@CombatdocumentedFun fact: Poland was best friends with Germany. Two countries signed the pact of political, economical and military cooperation in 1934, then in 1938 they combined their forces to invade and annex Czechoslovakia, which started WW2.
Dominant regional power? It's debatable. Polish - transilvanian troups had beaten heavily papa Ivan. Almoust nobody knows about that. And they did it in a winter campain.

Hell is today.
@@Judith-gj4tzyea ok we are living in better times most men didn't even live past 35 get over your edginess
Actually, you wouldn't notice that it's bad, if you didn't know better. Of course if you torn out of our time and placed there, it would be horrible, but if you was born there, your perception would be different. Today we live in the most prosperous society in history, even poorest of people have the abundance of different food, but people still complaining and are not happy. The role of circumstances is highly overrated, unlikely people were significantly more or less happy back then.

I think for the most part sometimes the titles of known autocratic or harsh rulers were given not by their supporters, but mostly by people who are critical of their actions whether it is deserving or not. Similarly, "the terrible" might be given to Ivan colloquially, which eventually stuck through the ages. Another historical figure who also had the same fate is Caligula (his actual name is Gaius Caesar) a name given to him by his detractors which in time, just stuck. But either way, in the end, what they did is the most important aspect of their legacy, affecting people's lives until today.
Ivan the "unpleasant". Ivan the "not nice"
Did they b.ame the fire on america
Иван 4- самый Великий царь нашей Руси! Великий Император!❤️🙏
this "documentary" is a bunch of stock footage and pictures of people that aren't even related to the individuals being discussed
Can someone explain why the name is being said as Ee-Van rather then Eye-Ven?
Because it's a russian name
Think of DJT’s daughter Ivanka, fem for Ivan.
This isn't the documentary I remember. The narrator was different and there were more reenactments.
great video. when you take a closer look at the time he lived and what was happening around him, i think and believe the title is a unjust for the most part. i think Stalin makes him look good.
For HIS time of History He was Probably No Worse than his fellow rulers @ that time.
Ivan the terrible is like the George Washington of Russia.
No
@@michaeldunham3385 you only say that because it's embarrassing. Russian history is particularly evil and brutal compared to the rest of the world.
Good joke bot
very interesting , a driven character man of his times ,
And let's look at the good European rulers:
During his reign, King Charles IX executed approximately 33 thousand people who were objectionable to him. Kindness itself!
King Henry VIII of England . During his reign, Henry executed 72 thousand people. In addition to numerous mistresses, he had 6 official wives, two of whom he also executed, accusing of witchcraft. An educator in one word!!!
Queen Elizabeth I of Ireland and England was called "Great" by Europeans, and grateful English merchants, whom she patronized, were nicknamed "Good Lizzie" During her reign, Elizabeth I executed 89 thousand people. By all accounts, Ivan the Terrible executed from 6 to 8 thousand people. But he is the only one who is bad and formidable!!! European double standards.....
I think your numbers are way off. Ivan and his doghead and broom carrying henchmen destroyed whole cities. Ivan tortured people daily for fun.
@@russianthotbot6997 Yes, and he also ate babies for breakfast. He played the balalaika. And drank vodka with bears. ))) It is very convenient for you to believe in your own truth! And you turn a blind eye to your evil!
no one says Charles IX and Henry VIII are good💀 they’re among the worst, actually. And as for Elizabeth, I really dislike her, and don’t think she was great at all, but she didn’t have 89 thousand people executed💀

@@junglesuperstar9270 actually yes, you've obviously never set foot in Russia
Not really. I am telling you this as a Russian student of the history of his country and Europe. If we compare Ivan the Terrible in terms of cruelty with other rulers of Europe of that time, then Ivan the Terrible will seem like a fluffy rabbit in comparison.
Ivan IV Vasilyevich, also known as Ivan the Terrible, was the first ruler to be officially crowned as Tsar of All Rus in 1547. However, he was not the first individual in history to bear the title "Tsar."
The term "Tsar" derives from the Latin word "Caesar," a title used by Roman emperors, symbolizing supreme authority and sovereignty. The earliest recorded use of this title in a Slavic context was by Tsar Simeon I of Bulgaria, also known as Simeon the Great. He declared himself Tsar in 913, during the height of the First Bulgarian Empire, following successful campaigns and the expansion of his realm. Simeon's adoption of the title signified his aspiration to position Bulgaria as a cultural and political successor to the Byzantine and Roman Empires.
If the first king of Russia bears the title terrible, the outcomes wouldn't be good and it wasn't
I like these docs but they have an annoying habit of continually showing close ups of people’s eyes and faces which I find…disturbing.
Yes! Ugliest things ever on television. Male lips with facial hair above and below? And the faces with their mouths open wide? Give us a break. What were you thinking?
Ivan on the video cover kinda looks like Edge from WWE
Peter I reigned from 1721 to 1725 as Emperor of Russia but before that he reigned as Tsar from 1682 until 1721 before adopting the title of Emperor. So technically his reign was from 1682 to 1725
Not a fair description
