I decided to take a break from my usual World War 2 related content and decided to venture into the more cultural aspects of Russian history, namely the history of its architecture. I'm by no means qualified to talk about the specific patterns and whatnot, but I did combine this with discussions on feudalism in order to explain why Russia has little Medieval architecture
The video really highlights 4 points as to why the aforementioned is the case. Namely, that Russian history (from Kievan Rus), overall, is much more recent than that of its European neighbors. Feudalism, otherwise known as serfdom, didn't develop in Medieval Russia but at a much later date in Russia, thus prompting the construction of stone edifices in the 17th-19th centuries. Reforms by Peter the Great only solidified this institution. Another more obvious point would be the availability of timber products in the Northern forested zones of Western Eurasia. Finally, the last reason is much more scientific, being that wood is more energy-efficient and serves as a great insulator for the harsh Russian winters. Hence, this is why there are no medieval buildings in Russia.
In all honesty, the main answer lies in Medieval Russia and Serfdom.
Please enjoy.
