At the beginning of the 19th century, the Russian Empire extended from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Black Sea on the south, from the Baltic Sea on the west to the Pacific Ocean, and (until 1867) into Alaska in North America on the east. With 125.6 million subjects registered by the 1897 census, it had the third largest population in the world at the time, after Qing China and the British Empire. Like all empires, it included a large disparity in terms of economics, ethnicity, and religion. There were numerous dissident elements, who launched numerous rebellions and assassination attempts; they were closely watched by the secret police, with thousands exiled to Siberia.
Bakov has declared the Imperial Throne to be the successor to the historical Russian Empire that ceased to exist in 1917. The Imperial Throne also claims the right to maritime territories that were either claimed by the Russian Empire or discovered by the Imperial Russian Navy but never absorbed into the Soviet Union. The 17 claimed territories include the entire continent of Antarctica as well as land currently under the jurisdiction of Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other nations.
The Imperial Throne has no established territory or sovereign status beyond its own claims. In 2014, Bakov announced he had purchased land in Montenegro and plans to set up a government-in-exile.
The Western Front was the main theatre of war during World War I. Following the outbreak of war in August 1914, the German Army opened the Western Front first by invading Luxembourg and Belgium, then gaining military control of important industrial regions in France. The tide of the advance was dramatically turned with the Battle of the Marne. Following the race to the sea, both sides dug in along a meandering line of fortified trenches, stretching from the North Sea to the Swiss frontier with France. This line remained essentially unchanged for most of the war.
Between 1915 and 1917 there were several major offensives along this front. The attacks employed massive artillery bombardments and massed infantry advances. However, a combination of entrenchments, machine gun nests, barbed wire, and artillery repeatedly inflicted severe casualties on the attackers and counter-attacking defenders. As a result, no significant advances were made. Among the most costly of these offensives were the Battle of Verdun, in 1916, with a combined 700,000 casualties (estimated), the Battle of the Somme, also in 1916, with more than a million casualties (estimated), and the Battle of Passchendaele, in 1917, with roughly 600,000 casualties (estimated).
The Western Front of the European theatre of World War II encompassed Denmark, Norway, Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Western Germany. World War II military engagements in Southern Europe and elsewhere are generally considered under separate headings. The Western Front was marked by two phases of large-scale combat operations. The first phase saw the capitulation of the Netherlands, Belgium and France during May and June 1940 after their defeat in the Low Countries and the northern half of France, and continued into an air war between Germany and Britain that climaxed with the Battle of Britain. The second phase consisted of large-scale ground combat, which began in June 1944 with the Allied landings in Normandy and continued until the defeat of Germany in May 1945.
1939–40: Axis victories
Phoney War
The Phoney War was an early phase of World War II marked by a few military operations in Continental Europe in the months following the German invasion of Poland and preceding the Battle of France. Although the great powers of Europe had declared war on one another, neither side had yet committed to launching a significant attack, and there was relatively little fighting on the ground. This was also the period in which The United Kingdom and France did not supply significant aid to Poland, despite their pledged alliance.

World War I - Eastern Front (1914-1918) - Every Day
Группа ВК: https://vk.com/cherepashka_shusha
Most likely this is the most hardest for me video on my channel. Despite the title of the video is Eastern Front of the World War 1, I decided to include also Balkan front, Italian front and the part of Middle Eastern front (Caucasian front). This video will show the whole chronology of hostilities of the First World War in these regions on the map (every day, animation).
Eastern front of the WW1 (or Great War) is the second in order of importance for Germany and it was much more extended. The front in the east was much longer than that in the west. The theater of war was roughly delimited by the Baltic Sea in the west and Minsk in the east, and Saint Petersburg in the north and the Black Sea in the south, a distance of more than 1,600 kilomet...

Eastern front of the WW1 (or Great War) is the second in order of importance for Germany and it was much more extended. The front in the east was much longer than that in the west. The theater of war was roughly delimited by the Baltic Sea in the west and Minsk in the east, and Saint Petersburg in the north and the Black Sea in the south, a distance of more than 1,600 kilometres (990 mi). This had a drastic effect on the nature of the warfare. While the war on the Western Front developed into trench warfare (Battle of Marne, Battle of Somme Battle of Verdun in France), the battle lines on the Eastern Front were much more fluid and trenches never truly developed. This was because the greater length of the front ensured that the density of soldiers in the line was lower so the line was easier to break. Once broken, the sparse communication networks made it difficult for the defender to rush reinforcements to the rupture in the line, mounting rapid counteroffensives to seal off any breakthrough.
Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip on 28 June 1914, a month later Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia. German Empire at head of Wilhelm 2 declared war on Russian Empire on 1 August 1914, Austria-Hungary did it on 6 August 1914. Ottoman Empire also joined the Central Powers but 1914 was the year of victories for Russian army. Everything changed in 1915. By mid-1915, the Russians had been expelled from Poland, Lithuania, part of Latvia, Belarus and Ukraine during the Great Retreat. Battle of Osowiec became famous in this period. Brussilov offensive in 1916 was the sounding victory for Russia but it suffered very high casualties. It was the reason for February Revolution in 1917 after which discipline in the Russian army dropped dramatically, soldiers didn't want to fight. Bolsheviks at head of Vladimir Lenin took power in Russia during the October Revolution. They signed the humiliating Treaty of Brest with Central Powers in 1918 and Russia completely emerged from the war. Germany surrendered after the November Revolution eight months later, during that Russia was divided into several political camps because of civil war. Eventually Bolsheviks won and USSR was established in 1922. Treaty of Versailles between Germany and Entente was signed in 1919.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the Russian Empire extended from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Black Sea on the south, from the Baltic Sea on the west to the Pacific Ocean, and (until 1867) into Alaska in North America on the east. With 125.6 million subjects registered by the 1897 census, it had the third largest population in the world at the time, after Qing China and the British Empire. Like all empires, it included a large disparity in terms of economics, ethnicity, and religion. There were numerous dissident elements, who launched numerous rebellions and assassination attempts; they were closely watched by the secret police, with thousands exiled to Siberia.
