Daar vond het Marskarretje Curiosity opvallend nieuw en direct bewijs voor het bestaan van meren in het gebied waar het wagentje al ruim tien jaar rondrijdt: de grote krater Gale.

These characters are a great way to examine #Finland's relationship to #ImperialRussia:
" #Mannerheim made a career in the #ImperialRussian Army, serving in the #RussoJapanese War and the #EasternFront of #WorldWarI and rising by 1917 to the rank of lieutenant general."
cindieFinished my first audiobook (second book) of the year. I would have chosen a different narrator, personally, but the book itself got very interesting around chapter 3. A good read for anyone interested in the #Romanovs, #ImperialRussia, and even #Paris. #nonfiction #bookstodon

Why did the imperial Russian government fail to prevent revolution in 1917? Were its security policies flawed?

Historian Jonathan Daly brings to life the men who, often with reformist intentions, took on the task of defending Russia against political dissent and revolution from within.
