Rusviet Tsardom | 1920+ // Iron Harvest
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- No nation on Earth can match the vast territories of the Rusviet Tsardom. But once, where it was the rule of the Tsar bound the empire together, now the only constant is the whispers of his supposed weakness, and the seemingly inevitable revolution.

So is this meant to be the actual 20th Century but with Mechs instead of Tanks?
I live iron harvest, but something about it feels off.
*Something about a certain country*
So this is the Russian empire that successfully reformed and avoided civil wars(emphasis on "wars"). I guess Czar Alexander II didn't die in 1881

Stuffs crayons in mouth idk they should stop using flamethrowers and gas
I get the impression the Nordic, Albion, Czardom, and Shogunate probably dominate North America, unless the natives held out, I'm not sure the colonies ever revolted in this reality. Although I guess Saxony controls the Fancs and Gauls. The southern continent is likely dominated by Iberians or the Papal State.
Just guesses on my part I haven't researched this alternate realities background as much as I'd like to.
@@jlokison I don’t think that US made an appearance in this universe.

Fenris has something to say about it.
Then Lenin and Nikolas II have a very long and drunk night...
Can you imagine Lenin, Nikolas II and Rasputin having a really drunk 80s comedy wild night ride through Moscow having their wacky moments while there are those giant robots around in the background, while they are persecuted by assassins hired by aristocrats, the Kaiser’s spies and Stalin in a power armor.
Nikolas: Uhhg I think I had enough... I’m starting to think that elderly woman is Baba Yaga
Lenin: Such is the life of the royalty, cannot even handle the alcohol that the common workers need to get through the day!
Nikolas: Now you listen here...
Rasputin: You are both little babies *sniffing some weird green smoke that is coming from the open neck of what looks like a Ogre’s severed head* this is the good shit, have some
Nikolas:... where did you got this??
Lenin: You were carrying this with you all this time and we didn’t noticed? how...?
Rasputin: Ohhh I’m packed with a lot of humongous stuff you cannot notice...
Nikolas: Now I need some of this to forget, pass the...
Rasputin: Ogre head.
*Nikolas rips one*
*Awkward silence*
Rasputin: That’s totally Baba Yaga, by the way
Excellent, well done :)
May the motherland forever prosper!
"Nicolay" not "Nicolaj". "J" in Slavic languages is read as "y".
No, it's J. It can be Nicolai, Nicolas or Nicolay and it would be read as Николай, but Nicolaj is Николаж.
@@IguanaJack And the actual name is Николай (Nikolai/Nikolay), not Николаж (Nikolaj).
@@EgorKaskader ну может быть, я чет не обратил внимание в ролике, а во всех вики написано Николаж.

Ironic that the Дума was once considered "unthinkable" XD
Still figuring that out. It seem to be unthinkable for hundreds of years of its existance. Go figure how that worked out in pretty large territory.
@@barsni4779 What I meant was that "дума" (duma) in Russian means "thought"...
@@Ismavolt It's a very strained pun considering "thought" being pretty archaic meaning of the word. But pun is pun, so I guess it's fair.

@@AragornRespecter Move Over *MENSHAVIK!*
Not necessarily. The first real attempt at land reform in Russia was launched by Prime Minister Pyotr Stolypin, a conservative and *efficient* man, if ever sense of the word. Perhaps he or another politicians could’ve achieved similar aims in this timeline
this answered my question about the soviets and the tasr toghether is way crazier than any mech
The "j" in Nikolaj is pronounced as a "y". This is a feature found in all Slavic languages and many European languages, such as German, for example.
Sometimes I wonder if English has a slavic "y" sound. I cannot ever remember any word with it as I think about it.
@@Ussurin As far as I know, English does not have an equivalent to that sound. I was referring to the English "y" sound, which is denoted by "j" in many languages.
@@Ussurin the word *"YES"* has that sound.
@@Ussurin If you're thinking of мягкий знак, then yes, it does, but it depends on the dialect and usually only before a /u/ sound. Consider words like 'annual, menu, volume, Matthew, continue'.
That would explain why the anglicized translation is usually Nikolai, and from there, Nicholas II.
Oh yes I was wanting this one the most
Same dude
I can imagine the composition of the State Duma. The increasingly sidelined moderate elements would likely be the Kadet Party, the Constitutional Democrats, led by Pavel Milyukov, a prominent liberal. Hard right factions could be chaired by men such as Vladimir Purishkevich, a man know for his hard-right Orthodox nationalism, or the Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich, a relative of Nicholas and a man with clout in conservative and aristocratic circles. While the moderate left wing could perhaps be made up of the right wing of the Socialist Revolutionaries, the position that would be held by prominent politician Alexander Kerensky, I could see Mensheviks being a part of the assembly as well, while more radical elements like Anarchists would definitely boycott the Duma
Kerensky? a socialist? hahahahhaha
Sabotabby Bububuh, somewhat misleading, I said the *right-wing* of the Socialist Revolutionaries, which are actually basically just Social Democrats.
Where mechs are, Kerensky follows.
@@Edmonton-of2ec so neither socialist nor revolutionary then?
@@sabotabby3372 The moderate of the wing of the party, or the social democratic wing. The radical wing, the “socialist” socialists would be excluded or at least sidelined within the party

So by this we have confirmed- the Tokugawa Shogunate and Nordic Kingdom are still around, and possibly the Americas have been explored, plus two out of three have mechs.
Yup- DLC is coming, and it will be SO worth it. Nodachi Mech's, anyone?
This is the beginning of the war. The other factions have not yet been drown into it.
@@Guciom not saying they have, but its the universe that has me excited for it, and its clear Japan has, given their war with the Rusviet's, though I am not sure of the Nord's involvement. Also, I thought this took place after the great war?
Considering how the Japanese had once more guns than Europe itself
It's not unlikely to have gun blades
After all, gun is just long stab
The Board game that shares a Universe with this has a couple of Characters from the other nations, Of the top of my head we Have the Crimean with a hawk, the Shogunate with a monkey, The Nordic kingdoms with a Caribou and Whatever England is with a boar.
@@tanith117 -and I continue to be hopeful for the future of Iron Harvest.

I also love Wasteland though, please do Wasteland 3 factions next! Like the Scar Collectors or the Payasos.
Monarcho-Communism? The most blessed form of government there is? FOR THE TZAR AND PEOPLE OF THE RUSVIET UNION!

Ahh it’s nice to hear that phrase spoken once again, brings back good memories
Stalin: I am a red Tsar
Nikolai: Amateur
Nikolai: You're not even a Tsar! Now get out of here Georgian, we already have one batshit crazy failed priest!
The Nordic Kingdoms are going to sit back and watch the show.
“Nordic counter parts”
Wait.... wait.... WAIT!! Is theres a Nordic faction we don’t know about?
Diesel punk Vikings with mechs!!
Also the Japan is in the lore.
The unique mech Nordics had in scythe board game was an amphibious ship with legs. So if Iron Harvest is intending to add them there should be normally impassable water on map that the Nordics can pass. Would be a cool mechanic.
Their Hero Unit Rides a Caribou.
There are the Nordic Kingdoms.
@Scolar IronHand There where more than two sides in WW2.
Well... They mention the Shogunate (Japan), the Asian Khanite (Mongolia/China) and Nordic Kingdom (Skandinavia) as well as "distant" Albion... The future is starting to look bright!
Guessing that Albion is the British empire.
I want all these factions
@@blindoutlaw no its the Scottish empire.
Wonder why the Polish view East Asians as mongols.
11:50 "The Alaskan wilderness of North America…"
So the US never bought Alaska? that'll be an interesting divergence.
Unfortunately I don’t think the US exists in this universe. I wish they did though I’d love to see the creator’s take on US.
I think, thats because we will get a DLC for the Albion agression into Alaska.
@@skysthelimitvideos From what I've heard, in this universe there was much less of a focus on colonialism (partially due to more isolationist policies of Albion) and as a result most of America is still held by the native population. So if any US-equivalent exists, It's more likely to be at best the size of original 13 colonies.
It is also posssible that this world's Iberian nations decided to focus more on north and west Africa, or trasę agreements with Otomans (or their equivalent) have nullified the need for an alternative route to China or India, thus delaying the age of exploration.
Wojciech Kowalski I still find it hard to believe there is no North American colonization. Though I could believe it is slowed; perhaps by Europeans being less genocidal on the locals then in real life.
@@Nostripe361 As long as i understand, there was colonization. That Albion State will probably be north Amerika, just without Alaska.
I am just not sure what they want to achieve with that strange name.
Something like "Capitalistic Free States of North Amerika" would fit the narration so much better.
Yes!!! the Togawa Shogunate!!!! I can't wait till they introduce that faction. As well as western nations like Britain and North America
I don't remember Britain or America to has their rosters, but I could be wrong
@@Pigraider268 In 1920+ we have the Kingdoms of Albion representing this worlds United Kingdom and the US apparently does not exist as do to some event there was no push to colonise the Americas.
@@Guciom uhh wait what?
r u sure? hmmm
interesting
kinda sucks that America is not represented.
Tokagawa would be cool. Not anime mechs, realistic technology.
@@loafloaf3759 would be cool to see the crimean calvary and mechs
@@Guciom Makes me wonder how the natives are doing, then?
The paintings of Jakub Rozalski are awesome
I may not agree with Rusvet current government or the possible government that could come about, but their mechs on the other hand greatly catch my interest. Not fast but heavy armor and heavy weapons all the while easy to build and maintain *happy gas mask noise*
Another thing I am trying to understand is how heavy armor AND heavy weapons combined into I guess heavy vehicles are reliable and easy to maintain. I feel like Stalinium at work, no less.
@@barsni4779 *Tsarinium
@@barsni4779 I think they were going for the ideas that made the Kalashnikov and the T-34 so successful in our universe. Something simple, tough, and easily cranked out on a production line.
@@charlesborden8111 I guess. The whole lore is based on real life ideas, but often mixing them up even when they contradict each other or even common sense. They have giant walking mechs with chicken legs though.
@@barsni4779 Praise Baba Yaga!😂
So far iron harvest looks badass.
Oh! I would love to see how the Japanese mechs is going to look like in this universe
2:32
-Don't you think some of anime's camera angles are a bit weird?
-what makes you say so?
Wait, in this time line the Shogun controls Japan!!!! Must see where this goes.
No Meïji Restoration since there was never a US to send Commodore Perry to force the shogunate to open the country. Makes sense
Spotted both a TIGUR! and a Bear.
I'm intrigued already.
They are the Animal Companions of the Rusviet hero and Polanian Hero respectively.
The second I saw this video I clicked. This was an amazing trilogy!
This has probably been the most insightful of these videos.
I love 1920+ and your expansion on it, Templin. I really hope that we see a canonical mention or explanation of the United States of...Vineland? Columbia? Also the Gauls (French) and Albion (British) need expanding!

I like your videos. They are always interesting
Wow! Is Rasputin _chill_ in this universe?
Rasputin was pretty chill with the tsars wife. Wink wink 👀
Spoilers:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
So I guess it’s safe to assume that a sequel will include the Togawa, Nords and Albions
I believe the Krim and the northerns are more likely since they are in the Board game.
So... whole bit about Rusviet mech design at 8:42 is what Russian tank design was in WWII. Yet another historical inclusion in the lore. I approve.
I like the way one of the Saxon mechs is like they sorta put a French looking tank on some legs for epic CENTRE OF MASS.
You know that losses are high, if the russians run out of man ^^
"with a sword, by the sword shall perish" that reminds me of the GTU statue of mourning episode
Now I feel better.
It was almost a week after this video was uploaded before I could watch this video. As I scrolled through the comments, I couldn't believe that no one recognized the words from the statue in Jakarta.
Good to see I am not the only proud Terran here.
Gloria in Excelsis Terra

Gotta admit these videos have me mighty interested in this game.
Rusviet Rebel: "We will kill the Tsar! We will kill the nobles! and we will make the first Great COMMUNIST-"
*Liberty Prime Glares Intently Across the Pacific*
Rusviet Rebel: ".....Change the Flag to a Red Star!"
Ra-Ra-Rasputin, crazy Rusviet love machine
Those who come to us with a sword, by the sword, shall perish. Only OG Templin Institute watchers knows that reference. Or people who marathoned their videos since, lets face it, its not like we have something better to do.
Just started reading comments again and the fact people think the Tsardom is communist just because it has "-viet" in its name is funny to me. They don't become communist until the Revolution DLC lol.
🎵there lived a certain man in rusviet long ago🎵
🎵he has big and strong in his eyes a flaming glow🎵
12:54 "the rule of the strong"
yes, that is a very "strong" person, indeed
Wait what? Alaska is part of Rusviet?
"Always has been-"
Sorry, couldn't resist. Keep in mind, the US purchased Alaska from the Russians in our timeline. I guess in this one, they just didn't want to sell?
@@Archris17 I think it's because they lost "The January Uprising" and released Poland selling another land could be considered as a sign of weakness and inability to govern themselves
@@Senior_Fluffy US is perhaps ruled by native Americans, since Britain is Scottish.
If they do still have Alaska, that would mean they controlled it during the Klondike gold rush. How might that have affected their financial solvency in the 20th century?
I wonder if theyre ever going to release these other nations like Albion and the Togawas that they keep cheekily teasing
Alaska being Russian implies that things in North America are different, I know 1920+ is more about Eastern Europe but I’m very interested in what’s going on with American powers at this point
With the usonia dlc we will hopefully learn more
You know what's awesome? Studying Russian history. It's wild, man.
This video is like "there are some misconceptions" then "autocracy! rule of the strong!", then more or less stabile, makes you think it's alright, then "immense manpower!".
Note how they say the lands “have known caesars”
I love it how the Captions say Stardom instead of Tsardom
Long live the tzar
I know many people are pointing out elements of monarcho-socialism, but what I got was more social democracy with paltry symbolic concessions to the more radical left. Still a monarchy, an aristocracy that has somewhat maintained its power, liberal, conservative, and even hard right factions in the Duma? It’s suggests a veneer of socialism, a simply paint job, with little to nothing underneath the surface, but even these concessions would be the greatest humiliation of the Romanov dynasty
"rather than produce mech intended to never break to break down, rusviyet mech are easy to repair and cheaply produce"
This sounds familiar
It worked in WW2
"Distant" Albion... Oh my oh my, was that a flying battleship I spied?
Solo basically their mech approach are our universe Soviet approach on small arms, notably Soviet AK- pattern rifles.
IN THE NAME OF THE TSAR!
Nice to hear about the Nordic Kings, the Shogunate and Albion. Some of these factions are mentioned or show up in other 1920+ products IIRC. There is one faction that does not show up that puzzles me though. No France. I can easily see the USA (if it even exists) not showing, and maybe Italy. But France was a big player. sm
A century later a similar war would be fought between the Rusviet Union and the Europan Commonwealth when Rusviet invaded the Crimean Free State
This is a certified Mladorossi moment
“Said to be the most trusted advisor to the Tsar and his wife” oh we all know the ways Rasputin “advised” the Tsar’s wife.
Hey tmeplin: here’s something that I wonder listening to iron harvest lore: were or what is America in this universe?
Maybe the Confederates won the civil war.
They're kinda chilling over on the other side of the pond, but there was talk of a second civil war.
Theyve been on the sidelines mostly.
God save the Tsar.
Cant wait for this universe's America to come out
Wow a potencial history reference niceee
I like how in Iron Harvest after the great war tanks weren’t the hot shit but mechs
I don't know what I've stumbled upon but I'm very interested 🤯
Could you do how to create the perfect Superhero/Villain because I’m creating a Superhero universe and I need some tips
I wonder what Britain, America, France, Japan and China are like in this world. I'll definitely be picking up Iron Harvest soon!
I do know that Japan's form in 1920+ is a a Shogunate, don't know about America or France tho, but America most likely exists because there's a British counterpart
Dr. Thrax game has Americans in the Russian campaign however the lore says America doesn’t exist? It’s going to be weird if they do add the Americans
@@eliatzarortiz8048 Maybe an analog for the Americans?
I love games that show Russia in an Unbiased cool narrative, Goods and bads, unlike most stories today that make Russia seem like hell on earth :(
Agreed
Caesar and Tsar have the same origin as a word
Seems like the Tsar got on the rapid modernization kick too.
Stalin was right. Quantity has a quality all its own, but only when used properly can it bring victory.
this game has excelent knowladge about early 20th century Russian politics which is very cool. a lot of games go with the stereotypes.
So wait, they use a Red Star instead of an Imperial emblem as a concession to radicals in the nation? Is that actual canon? Because I remember that being a detail that bothered one of the guys on this channel.
Part of me wants to know what Western Europe is like in this universe.
But I still love the focus on Eastern Europe for a change.
Plus it’s implied that the Tzardom still holds Alaska in this time line.
will the templin institute speak about the other factions that dind't make it into the game, the shogunate the nordic kingdoms albion etc... (I would really like to see something like faction dlc with campaign)
@The Templin Institute i imagine the rank-up problem you had the other day was directly related to your game crash and i suspect the game saves your rank to the local machine rather than a server.
9:31 I am not knocking the game or it's design at all here, I'm just noting something of interest to me.
I wonder how this particular mech manages to not topple over every time it steps. It has a slow and wide gait. If going slow, a biped needs to put it's weight over the single foot on the ground. Alternatively one could "waddle" but that involves tossing ones center of gravity from side to side to maintain balance.
With the way the mech at 9:30 I believe it's only option would be to take very very small steps as it accelerates. If it were going at a decent clip, inertia would lower the center of gravity balance tax to make the leg structure work a little better. I suppose that kinda plays into the idea that it's supposed to be slow though.
And to clarify I have no problem with the animation as is. It looks cool and that's good enough. I'm just thinking about the physics that would be involved if this were reality. Which of course remains the major difficulty with mechs in general.
Dear Templin Institute, can you do a lore video about They are Billions?
Great setting,
But whoever decided 'Rusviet' was a clever name needs a slap in the mouth
That would be Jakub.
Rusviet? Sounds like Рассвет
Actually it is in some way clever - "rus"+"svet", and "svet" is not only "the light" but also "the world" in old russian
LargenirGK so basically, it’s “The World of the Rus”
Personally I think it's a great name for a great people!🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
I don't know why, but in every alternate Universe involving Tsar Nikolas II, I wish he never got killed brutally by the Commies. Fingers crossed this doesn't happen in Iron Harvest
AHHHHH MOTHERLAAAAAAND!
