The decembrist revolt

"Was the decembrist revolt an attempt of revolution or a military coup?"

What did the police look like during the times of Ivan the Terrible? What is the difference between Cumans and Pechenegs? How did the climate actually influence the history of Russia? Learn these and many other interesting facts in our new project "A Minute of History".

A Minute of History is a series of one-minute videos, each telling an interesting, but little-known story about Russian history, a story that affected the history and culture of both the country and the whole world.

The clips have been created by the interregional public organization of large families "The Big Family" with the support of the Presidential Grants Fund. The information partner of the project is the Orthodox magazine "Foma".
