Who are we meeting and why study Peter the Great?
Thank you.
Welcome back to Fingalist History. Joining me is Horatio Gould. And today we are discussing Peter the Great. We are in Russia, a phenomenal figure. Not one I really knew much about.
No, not at all. I don't think we learned about Peter the Great or the Great Northern War, but complete bangers, back to front bangers. Awesome stuff. Yeah.
There's probably the most amount of dwarves there's ever been in an episode. I'll say that now.
Probably.
Most dwarves thrown. Most dwarves thrown? Yeah. 100%. And also, I didn't realise how basically he makes modern Russia.
I sort of assumed Russia would always... been like this because Russia's not as old as people think in many ways no it's just like a mad it was like a Viking slave estates that sort of he turns it from that minute silence for the white the white slave victims please this one this episode is to raise awareness of what every episode is this podcast is a anti white slavery donation link in the bio below.
Click the link to help fund my reparations, which I will be paying myself as dividends. I believe one of Andy Burnham's first policies, should he come in, is to make... If he had any sense. If he had any sense. If sense had not completely left this country, that it would make white reparations not taxable.
This is the Finn Taylor's article in the Telegraph with a picture of him like that.
Euro reparations and the government is taxing them.
Burnham, white reparations now.
Burnham, get your mitts of my reparations, okay?
We are not in... This might be coming out in Burnham's Britain. We don't know. We don't know yet. Are people going to still be saying Burnham is... Burnham, Afghanistan. Yeah, is that... Burnham's Britain. Because Starmer's Britain caught on more than any... People weren't saying that at Sunax Britain or anything like that. So I don't know. Is it a new slate's clean or is it just going to go straight to Burnham's Britain?
I think if you're a Labour Prime Minister... You're always going to get... You always get Britain. It's not Britain in the minds of the press.
Blair's Britain.
Blair's Britain. Yeah. You know, trust is Britain. Trust is Britain.
Trust is Britain.
So there's no point in saying trust is Britain. That's a double... Right, right. You're just saying the same thing twice. Yeah, exactly. Tautology. It's a tautology. But Burnham's Britain, you know. That shouldn't be a... Britain shouldn't be under Burnham.
Now you just got Burma up, Charlie, and you just left it there and leant back in your chair.
We may turn into Burma.
Yeah, if we carry on the way that we're going.
If he does not sort out HMRC's policy on white reparations.
Yeah, genocide in the jungle, I reckon.
100%. But anyway, we are in 17th century Russia. It's a time period we don't spend much time in as well, but it's a fascinating one. The end of the 17th century.
I don't know why, because I guess for British history, the Napoleonic Wars at the beginning of the 1800s, and you've got the English Civil War, Glorious Revolution.
It's a bit of a dead zone, isn't it? It's a calmer zone, I guess. It's science. Yes. So I kind of tune out.
Is it like Newton? Yeah, and the other fucking... Oh, the other one. They've got writers like Samuel Johnson. Samuel Pepys. Yeah, but that's... He's like the British Anne Frank. Is that right? Yes, but I guess it's a... Boring. An even sadder story. Even sadder. Even more boring. No, we get great for our London. So I guess it's just that this little bit here. Yeah, but the year seven. So what year is this happening? What year is he born?
Well, Peter the Great's born in I think 1680 something.
Yeah. And then shit really kicks off at like 1700. Yes. Nothing seems to happen at 1700. I can't place anything at 1700.
Should we try and place it? Peter the Great is born in 1670. So it is just after the restoration in England. Yeah. And it is before Rupert Lowe's restoration. Yeah, exactly. Which is TBC. Yes. TBC. Yeah. So it's after the restoration.
When the only true patriot in this country defected from reform and started.
You know they're a patriot if they've started their own political party.
