Teacher said...

Teacher said...
By popular demand, the Russia ccot...

8000 bce - 600 ce - not much honestly.

980 ce - Vladimir I makes orthodox Christianity the religion of the region. Visited by Muslim travelers who thought they were barbarians. Remember that document? Great stuff with women's rights - they had none! Slave girls, sacrifices for lords. Etc. Kiev was key city, kept orthodxo strong and kept out catholicism, very much influenced by byzantium. Old slavic paganism slowly vanished - thats the religion the islamic visitors saw. prosperous trade society but way smaller than the big civs. Mongols arrived c.1300.

1300s - Mongols. Golden Horde.

1400s. Mongol golden horse struggling. Ivan iii of Moscow declared himself tsar and broke away. The rise of Moscow. Expansion of Russia begins in many directions, Siberia for fur by 1700. Most of nation still serf based. Peter tries so westernize in 1700/- capital goes to st.petersubrug - better army and trade - boyar control of govet reduced. - Catherine an enlightened despot but showed limits with pugachev rebellion

1800 - 1905

Still behind west - very agricultural, little middle class. Autocratic. Continuity is orthodoxy which even survived Mongols - Napoleon invaded - built some railroads - tried to get warm water port during Crimean and lost - pan slavism gains among many who wanted to unite Russia and Balkans - 1861 emancipation of serfs made little practical difference was a start- lots of censorship. Rev of 1905 caused by autocracy, lack of industrialization, and loss to Japan. New Duma given little real power.

1905 - now - czar abdicated during Wwi disaster - Duma doesn't get out of war and also collapses. Lenin starts communism and kills czar. Role by terror - totalitarianism. Censorship, etc. continuity is autocracy, secret police everywhere. But communism doesn't work so nep mixes capitalism in. Stalin stops that - collectives, five year plans. Siberia purges. Industrialization booms but nothing much for consumers. Life doesn't improve for average Russian. WWII non aggression pact, defeat if Germans with geo key. Cld war starts with eastern euro buffer zone. Berlin crisis. Khruschev builds wall and tries to put nukes in Cuba. Society not changing. Brezhnev more of same but does sign salt to reduce nukes. Gorbachev glasnost and perestroika end Cold War and start new Russian capitalism. Ussr breaks apart. Yeltsin and Putin increase capitalism but big rich poor gap.

Mexico

Pre 1500 - land of the Aztec and previous tribes.
1500 - 1800 part of the Spanish colonial,empire.
1800 - 1900 hidalgo led independent movement. Led lower classes. Went badly. Hidalgo executed. Morelos then tried and also executed when Spain bounced back after Napoleon. Ituribe then got the Creoles involved and then it worked. He became a dictator and was overthrown, republic was chaotic and lost Texas to USA. Power still with church and hacienda owners. Napoleon iii tired to take over throw archduke Maximilian and was defeated by Benito Juarez. Dictatorship continued under Diaz but lots of foreign investment improved country,
1900 - 2000 big gap between rich and poor led to Zapata and villa. They failed and were assassinated. New carbamazepine government gave more rights to middle class. Some improvement followed but Catholic Church and hacienda Owners still important and dictatorship remained, now a member of nafta with increasing industrialization but still mixed in poverty with drug cartels excel sizing lots of power.
