German and France.Both has conquered most of Europe except Russia. But after trying to conquer Russia they are defeated and starting to lose their regions back
What I have always found incredible, and impressive, is just how resilient Russia (and Russians) are to military invasion. The level of destruction and death at places like Borodino, Leningrad, and Stalingrad would have broken almost any country on Earth. Have to respect the Russians for that.
@@AlexWild579 as far is i know both French and Germans invaded and same winter came for them and for Russians, but Russians survived it and they didnt, so how it was only the winter? If Russians were so weak as invaders they wpuld be conquered.
@@artinnevada why fight when your enemy will die on its own. Bravery and foolishness are different things. It wasn't just winter, it also was guerrilla warfare by peasants, supply chain disruptions by russians and a controlled amount of military operations. Far better than world War 2 , which showed us the cost of not retreating to reinforce in time
of course there are always some kids from russia who will start crying and say that winter didn't help them but the truth is that winter saved their lives and it's a historical fact
@@artinnevadaRussia have more war victories than 99% of counties. Russia from 1815 was one of 5 Great European countries, ruling whole world. So yea, stop being salty.
The story told by my Grandfather was one of our ancestors survived or deserted during the invasion of Russia. A cousin who majored in history says everything adds up and is very plausible,.
Love your videos, I think it would be interesting to see a video on how the U.S. gained their current overseas territories, along with their possible futures
A good video for quickly summarizing the story. But many names of Russian cities/rivers and the names of Russian generals are pronounced incorrectly. Hint: You can use Google translator to listen to the correct names in any languages.
It is widely known that when Kutuzov was asked the naive question: "Do you really hope to defeat Bonaparte?", he answered: "It is unlikely that he will be defeated, but I can deceive him." In order to defeat the French, the Russian army had to go on the counteroffensive, but for this it had neither troops, nor ammunition, nor food. There were no reserves to replenish losses in the country. After agonizing deliberations at the military council in Fili on September 1, Kutuzov decided to withdraw his troops and surrender Moscow. It was important at all costs to preserve a combat-ready army, because without it there would be neither Moscow nor Russia. Thus, the surrender of the Russian shrine was a forced, but necessary step on the way to the main goal - the defeat of Napoleon. Subsequent events confirmed that Kutuzov was right. Kutuzov's army set fire to the city in advance. The burning city turned out to be empty: the inhabitants left it long before the arrival of the French. The interventionists tried to put out the fire, but it was too late, they began to suffer from hunger and disease, discipline worsened. Moscow was surrounded, attempts to obtain provisions in the vicinity of Moscow met with fierce resistance from Russian partisans and the regular army. Napoleon could not spend the winter in Russia, his army, counting on a quick victory, did not even have warm clothing. The French generals and Napoleon accused Kutuzov of waging the war "not according to the rules of military art", they demanded that he abandon partisan forms of struggle, to which Kutuzov replied: "In my fatherland and on my land, I fight the way I want." Realizing the seriousness of his situation, the French emperor asked Kutuzov for peace. Having received a refusal, Napoleon left Moscow on October 7, 1812 and moved to the southern provinces, where huge reserves of grain were stored. Kutuzov, expecting such an outcome, blocked the enemy's path and forced them to retreat through villages previously devastated by the French, along the Smolensk road, where there were no provisions left due to the pogroms of the French army. The French began to flee. It should be noted that the flight of the French army, not accustomed to the cold, was facilitated by early, severe frosts. On November 14-16, 1812, the remnants of the French army were completely routed on the border river Berezina, and Napoleon himself almost fell into captivity. Not far from Vilnius, the emperor abandoned the remnants of his once powerful army and hurried to Paris to gather new forces. Mikhail Kutuzov was subsequently accused of not taking Napoleon prisoner; many were under the impression that the field marshal deliberately gave Napoleon the opportunity to escape. The official English resident Colonel Robert Wilson was at Kutuzov's headquarters. He was also the personal informant of Tsar Alexander I about Kutuzov's moods and actions. According to his testimony, Kutuzov confided in him and explained why he did not want to vigorously pursue Napoleon and capture him: “It is better to allow the enemy to build a “golden bridge” than to try to catch him in a noose. I am not sure that the complete destruction of Napoleon and his army will be such a blessing for the whole world. His place will not be taken by Russia or any other continental power, but by the one that already dominates the seas,” Kutuzov added, clearly pointing to England, to Wilson’s great displeasure, “and in that case its dominion will be intolerable.” In 1813-1814, all of Europe rose up against the remnants of Napoleon’s army, which led to the final collapse of his empire. Unfortunately, Mikhail Kutuzov did not live to see the Russian troops enter Paris. The great commander died in April 1813 in the small Silesian town of Bunzlau. According to his will, his heart was buried there, and his embalmed body was sent to St. Petersburg, where it was buried in the Kazan Cathedral. Kutuzov not only fulfilled his promise to deceive Napoleon, but also defeated his huge army. Kutuzov is a great commander, a student of the invincible commander Suvorov. Eternal memory to the hero of Russia.
the motherland defends itself. Nobody can conquer Russia. Land is too vast...winter is too cold. I mean shit...they burned Moscow to the ground to make sure they all starve to death in the cold. That's crazy.
This napoleon in washinton dc. Who trying to enter into ukrain by name of nato.ukrain and belarus important to russia for its security.ukrain and belarus can be independent but russia will not tolerate any foreign amry in ukrain and nelarus.ukrain and belarus keeps russian territory away from nato.
Oh, the same stupid thing again. Napoleon retreated because of snow and winter Bla-bla-bla. He met the first snow only in Berezina when we already lost the army being in a deep retreat. The autumn was very warm this year. This video would be smarter if the author tried to study the material, and not stupidly copy stereotypes
stop crying. winter saved you so build a monument to her. If it wasn't for her, the French flag would fly in Moscow to this day. the russians all they did was run, they lost every battle,you losers haha
The French army had already encountered temperatures of -20° weeks before arriving at the Berezina, the winter WAS uncommonly rough and early in 1812. But yeah, Napoleon lost the majority of his army during the march TO Moscow, in summer and mostly from typhus and heat exhaustion. The Fabian and scorched earth strategies employed to perfection by Barclay and Kutusov, they kept retreating but staying close enough to tempt Napoleon to follow seeking a decisive battle, was the reason for the army's destruction in Russia.
🙈🙈🙈🤔🤔Lie on the map..where is Hungary???One of Europe's major powers at the time, Austria-Hungary was geographically the second-largest country in Europe after the Russian Empire, at 621,538 km2 (239,977 sq mi)[6] and the third-most populous (after Russia and the German Empire).

Germans: Invading Russia doesn’t work does it.

Ottomans: You guys saw Moscow?
French : It's beautiful there. Didn't want to destroy it. We withdrew afterwards

Russia is so big and it has cold weather makes conquering it so exhausting and finally Russia defeated its exhausted enemy
Its not like that ..
Russians fight hard ..
Russians defeat their enemy and the punishment for enemy is cold winters..
the motherland defends itself. Nobody can conquer Russia. Land is too vast...winter is too cold. I mean shit...they burned Moscow to the ground to make sure they all starve to death in the cold. That's crazy.
