friends Hello, here is a00:00:17
very short message to TV viewers If you are a00:00:20
girl And a girl watches me a huge00:00:22
amount Surely you have00:00:24
diamonds or will have diamonds, it00:00:27
could be a ring that you wear or00:00:29
you have a date for a wedding or you have some00:00:31
Sergis If you man, you gave00:00:33
diamonds or will give diamonds00:00:35
in any case. You are all connected with them and00:00:39
our history today is today's00:00:41
history lesson, firstly, for the first time about00:00:42
Africa. I have never done anything about00:00:44
Africa. Secondly, of course, about diamonds00:00:47
and00:00:48
people who have diamonds worth 60 and00:00:54
maybe 80% are related to00:00:57
this story But they don’t know anything about it00:00:59
I’ll tell you why it00:01:01
happened Africa is really the00:01:03
Anglo-Boer War, which00:01:06
will be discussed today in Russian00:01:09
historiography is poorly covered in00:01:11
English historiography is00:01:14
widely covered And in fact this is of course a00:01:17
rehearsal for the First World War, this is, of course, the00:01:22
Battle for Africa and this, of course, is the00:01:27
Battle for00:01:28
Brilints, these are all the words that now you00:01:31
often hear in the public field. In the00:01:34
media field, colonialism, imperial00:01:37
consciousness, today we will talk00:01:39
about this because here are both colonialism and00:01:42
imperial consciousness in its pure form will be00:01:45
presented So the Anglo-Boer00:01:53
War Let's First we're talking about m in general we're00:01:58
talking00:02:00
right away of course the South African00:02:02
Republic didn't become where did the00:02:04
Europeans come from when there were00:02:06
dark-skinned Africans there00:02:08
were no Europeans there April 6,00:02:10
1652 they landed there representatives of the00:02:15
Dutch Ost company I00:02:18
will not specifically make a separate issue00:02:19
because this is, of course, a brilliant00:02:21
first international first00:02:23
transnational corporation with its own00:02:25
bank the right to conclude00:02:28
diplomatically00:02:30
with its own PMCs and so on. This, of course,00:02:32
will be a separate story in general, a00:02:35
powerful trading corporation00:02:37
that joins which is engaged in00:02:39
trade. But besides this Of course,00:02:41
he annexes the colonies of Holland or00:02:44
tries to annex them somewhere, he00:02:46
succeeds somewhere. It doesn’t work out. And00:02:47
these Dutch land in Casta. This is00:02:50
what is now called Cape Town, they00:02:52
found the city of Kopd there and begin00:02:55
to build their own commune there,00:02:57
first it’s just the Dutch, then then00:02:59
to the Danes join them, then the00:03:03
Germans join them, and then the00:03:05
French Huguenots join.00:03:07
Recently there was an issue about00:03:08
St. Bartholomew's Night, I told you that some00:03:11
fled to America, some fled to00:03:13
South Africa, and these00:03:15
French Huguenots also means they sailed on00:03:17
ships to escape tyranny in their homeland00:03:20
They sailed here to South Africa, what did00:03:24
all these Amazing people start to do?00:03:26
Well, naturally, oppress the local00:03:28
population, remove them00:03:30
from the territory, fight them00:03:32
endlessly, exterminate them and turn them into00:03:36
slaves, slavery became the basis of the economy of00:03:40
these new territories, what00:03:42
happened there, what was the economy there, Well00:03:44
firstly, after the cat cultivated00:03:47
wheat and made wine,00:03:49
South African wines are still very good and00:03:52
Cape wines are simply00:03:54
amazing, where did this wine even00:03:56
come from? Well, the same Huguenots, they came00:03:58
from France. They knew how to make wine, but00:04:00
they saw that the climate in general was very00:04:01
They planted a good laza and, in general,00:04:03
viticulture and winemaking began to00:04:05
flourish there. These Dutch are absolutely00:04:08
amazing. They live there, they are not00:04:09
Dutch, they are Boers. Why are they Boers00:04:12
because Boer in Dutch are00:04:14
peasants? Well, they call themselves00:04:15
Boers and these Boers live there beautifully,00:04:17
which means they exploit the local00:04:19
population, turn them into slaves And,00:04:22
in fact, they build their economy on this, the00:04:24
people are very pious, the people are very00:04:26
conservative, and everything is fine, they are00:04:30
very good, which means they live there, they have built00:04:32
their own remote State,00:04:36
and for 143 years they have had complete prosperity, but00:04:39
after 143 years, what happens is00:04:43
happened in all corners of the earth in the 10th and00:04:49
early 20th centuries, the English00:04:57
crown came to come up with an idea for a new business,00:05:00
this is of course not an easy task. But at the moment of00:05:02
launch, difficulties usually00:05:04
become even more necessary to attract00:05:06
investments, set up financial processes00:05:08
and, of course, look for potential clients00:05:10
now with the advent of social networks00:05:12

for you in the description go right00:06:26
now00:06:27
1795 the00:06:30
British land and00:06:33
capture the capsule why did the00:06:35
British need the Cape Colony at all00:06:37
Why do they need it there was South Africa And why did the00:06:39
British need India And why did they00:06:41
need a war later in the Soviet00:06:43
Canal And in Palestine And in Afghanistan And00:06:46
in the Far East And in Iran And then00:06:49
in general I will list the language I will00:06:51
wither England is a huge colonial00:06:53
Empire over which never00:06:56
the sun sets in 1795, this is not yet the case, but00:06:59
England already has all the prerequisites for this;00:07:01
the most powerful, the most powerful navy;00:07:03
the most powerful; the Merchant Navy; a very good00:07:05
army; and00:07:06
naturally, any poorly or00:07:09
well-positioned territory, especially if there are00:07:11
minerals there, the crown is00:07:13
immediately declared the sphere of its own.00:07:16
interests Why did the British end up there? The00:07:18
British needed a route as a transshipment00:07:20
base on the road to India. Cape Town00:07:23
suited them quite well; they landed and00:07:26
captured the00:07:28
colony.00:07:30
Naturally, in such a situation, they00:07:32
were dissatisfied; they periodically raised00:07:34
an uprising, and literally 8-10 years later,00:07:38
from 1803 to00:07:41
1806, next in the 10th century, and00:07:46
the Netherlands regained these territories and the00:07:48
Boers there, in general, began again to00:07:56
overthrow the tyrant and remake Mirza.00:08:00
Prim here the Boers in South Africa and Prim00:08:03
here England, well, Holland was00:08:06
an ally of France, the00:08:12
henchman of the people who were the00:08:14
henchman of Napoleon Bonaparte and according to the00:08:17
Vienna00:08:18
Congress, the Cape Colony is pushing00:08:22
back towards Great Britain, it must00:08:25
be said that Ancha00:08:28
Burov Do not press, well, that is, what does not00:08:32
press, of course, there was no00:08:33
genocide, there were no00:08:35
massacres and so on, after all, the Europeans are00:08:37
used to negotiating with each other,00:08:38
white people The only thing00:08:40
that taxes were increased, the Boers of course00:08:42
began to grumble The whole production thing was00:08:44
translated into English and there was00:08:47
simple Dutch or middle00:08:49
Dutch and of course the Boers, these people are00:08:54
Dominos, but the people are very neon they are horse00:08:56
Nobody wanted to learn English, damn00:08:59
it Well, the production thing is in00:09:00
English in general and taxes, who else00:09:02
needs this at all and the Boers are quietly in the bay Well,00:09:05
somehow, in general, for the next 20 years they00:09:07
lived together with the Dutchman, but in00:09:10
1834 something terrible happened. The Crown00:09:13
ordered the abolition of slavery in all colonial00:09:15
territories of Great Britain00:09:18
and here, of course, for the Boers00:09:21
the situation became terrifying consequences00:09:24
because slaves are the basis of the Boer00:09:26
economy the Boers began to grumble the British00:09:28
said We have slaves Well, we forbid you00:09:31
slavery but we will buy back the slaves Well00:09:34
then it went on The usual routine business00:09:37
productive00:09:39
[ __ ] the prices for robes in Cape Town were00:09:42
the same but they were considered at other prices of 1000:09:45
times less and the papers had to be00:09:47
signed through London and there is an official00:09:49
And here the Ministry of Colonial Affairs, in00:09:51
general, the Boers received nothing and00:09:55
then the Boers understand that why should they00:09:58
live in this hard-hat colony where they have00:10:00
rights No taxes00:10:03
pressure them to speak English but the most important thing was00:10:04
that they took away the slaves and in 1835, literally a00:10:07
year later, an event happened that will00:10:09
go down in history as the Great00:10:12
Trek 15,000 Boers with families and households with00:10:16
cattle and horses are removed and00:10:19
shown00:10:20
to the British It is clear Which finger Which00:10:23
hand is and they go beyond the river Val Io00:10:29
one state is called Transvaal00:10:31
that is, for valem across the river vaal00:10:34
another is called a free orange00:10:36
state they begin to build their00:10:38
life there with blackjack, booze and slaves, everything is00:10:41
as it should be and Britain turns a00:10:44
blind eye to it Well, these brown ones are gone Well, what00:10:46
the heck with them We need a base Well, these are gone00:10:49
and goodbye and in 1855, Britain00:10:52
recognizes both of these territories and says Yes,00:10:54
we recognize the existence of the00:10:55
Transvaal state and the free Orange00:10:57
state. We recognize everything, thank you00:10:59
very much, we will be friends. As they say00:11:00
at home, the life of these two states,00:11:02
the Transvaal and Orange Republics, a00:11:05
quiet life continues until00:11:07
1866 and in00:11:10
1866 an event occurs00:11:14
extraordinary in the disputed territory00:11:16
nuno, she wasn’t even Disputed, she was00:11:18
geographically I don’t belong to any00:11:21
colony which was the property of the00:11:23
English Crown of the Crown, they found a diamond00:11:26
weighing 21 Carats Well, more precisely, they found a Diamond,00:11:29
of course, because a diamond is a00:11:30
cut Diamond, they found a 21 Carat Diamond,00:11:32
then another one Then another one, at some00:11:35
point, it became obvious that there was a huge00:11:37
diamond deposit there. But that’s not all.00:11:40
Literally in the same year, at the end of the00:11:41
year, I think, a huge00:11:43
gold mine was found there and the wildest00:11:46
diamond gold rush began from all over the world00:11:51
in Transvagonmash00:11:52
[music]00:11:59
has been coming for about a decade. Well, over the course of a dozen00:12:02
years, 200,00000:12:05
people, mostly English, arrive and begin00:12:08
to develop these diamond and gold00:12:12
deposits. Here’s an interesting point to00:12:14
which I haven’t found an answer, to be honest.00:12:16
Why didn’t the Boers themselves mine gold and diamonds?00:12:18
Well, here’s one of the00:12:21
answers suggested by the American writer00:12:23
Mark Twain, he visited South Africa and00:12:26
described the Boers as stupid and cruel people,00:12:29
very pious conservative Morcos,00:12:34
tailless race and black races, the black race is00:12:37
oppressed, but it is generally good-natured00:12:40
and good-natured, but the brown ones are ferocious, which00:12:42
means they are idiots, absolute ignoramuses, dense00:12:46
obscurantists with with their conservative00:12:48
squiggles and in general it is impossible to come to an agreement with him, the00:12:51
same Savages and00:12:53
these Savages, how they came up with the idea of00:12:55
building an economy, they still00:12:56
made wine, sent cattle, and00:12:59
from the people who came to mine gold00:13:02
and diamonds, they simply collected taxes,00:13:06
these people were called oilan Well, that is,00:13:08
literally Outlander Yes, people who came from00:13:11
another land taxed them and00:13:13
taxed them so successfully.00:13:15
That in 10 years of this gold and diamond00:13:18
mining, the income of the00:13:20
Boer budget income increased 10 times00:13:24
and there the tax was like only 5%, that is,00:13:27
economics absolutely flourished and now the Boers00:13:30
were engaged in their agriculture,00:13:31
which means the00:13:33
Aliens were engaged in gold mining and00:13:36
diamond mining, at some point these00:13:38
people become 200,00000:13:41
and all these 200,000 They want to get00:13:45
rights because they don’t have any rights. No, they00:13:47
arrived there as guest workers, then they00:13:50
settled there 15 years have passed someone00:13:52
gave birth to children In general, they are integrated into this00:13:54
territory And they have no rights None of00:13:57
these00:14:00
aliens, about 150,000 are00:14:03
the British, they want civil rights They00:14:06
want to lower this five percent tax,00:14:08
they want to reduce customs duties, they00:14:10
want equality of languages because the00:14:12
Boers then, of course, everything is on Boer It’s all about00:14:14
production, so in fact they00:14:17
begin to demand civil rights for themselves.00:14:20
Boer, of course, this Kim does00:14:22
n’t give them civil rights, they say, we have blacks00:14:24
without civil rights. Well, they are slaves and00:14:26
you are not slaves. Free and what other00:14:28
rights do you have? we won’t give you anything and a00:14:31
real political00:14:37
crisis is brewing. It is obvious that where there00:14:39
is huge money, where there is gold,00:14:42
diamonds and where there is a national00:14:45
conflict, sooner or later it will end00:14:48
in war, and in 1880 the00:14:51
First Anglo-Boer War takes place, it00:14:53
does not last long, it begins December 16, 1880 and00:14:57
ends on March 6,00:14:59
1881 border conflicts the Boers00:15:03
show themselves to be skillful marksmen with arrows,00:15:05
they know the terrain well, they shoot00:15:07
English officers and, in general, with00:15:09
minimal losses, the war00:15:11
ends with the parties signing an00:15:13
armistice, or rather a peace treaty. Why did00:15:15
they sign the forces of the English crown at00:15:17
this moment is not so They don’t have a lot of Dobrov00:15:20
They are fighting in Afghanistan They are fighting for the00:15:23
Soviet Canal in Egypt they have a00:15:25
troubled history there in India so They00:15:27
certainly have no time for the Boers, they have a00:15:29
treaty in general Quite a good00:15:31
Transvaal and the Orange00:15:34
Republic sign suzerainty, that00:15:37
is, they declare00:15:39
themselves not subjects but in general they want00:15:42
say vassals yes Well, yes, they00:15:45
now have Suren as the Queen of England, but at the00:15:47
same time she receives complete self-government.00:15:49
It would seem that this conflict is settled, the00:15:51
Transvaal takes upon itself the obligation that we will00:15:53
now deal with these people, we will give them00:15:56
civil rights, but of course nothing00:15:59
of this happens and so it would be maybe00:16:01
it all flowed somehow00:16:03
because the 20th century is already approaching there, England is00:16:06
beginning to have contradictions with Germany, the00:16:08
colonial question is arising in Europe,00:16:11
everything is not very calm, and the parties in00:16:15
general are big powers heading towards conflict and00:16:17
about the Boers they could forget but here a00:16:20
man whose name is Cecil Rotz comes on stage00:16:23
Cecil Rotz is an00:16:26
Englishman with a brilliant mind, a young man00:16:30
who had terrible health and, in00:16:34
general, moved from England to South Africa, the00:16:37
guy was very smart and he was00:16:40
born in 1853 and already in00:16:43
1871 That is in fact, this is how long it00:16:46
turns out to be 18 years old, he starts buying up00:16:49
nearby00:16:52
Kimberley00:16:54
diamond mines and diamond mines, he buys00:16:57
them with the money of the Rothschilds, here we won’t talk00:16:59
today about there has already been a transfer, we won’t go00:17:02
further with conspiracy theories, the Rothschilds, the00:17:03
Rockefellers and the Golden Billion, we wo00:17:06
n’t go there today, but nevertheless00:17:08
he bought these Mines with Rothschild money and he00:17:11
begins00:17:12
to build a00:17:14
business, he begins with the purchase of these00:17:16
diamond deposits in 1880, he00:17:20
enters another business in the fruit industry.00:17:22
Why is the fixer pest that came00:17:25
from Europe devoured all the grapes in Europe00:17:28
then devoured all the grapes in SA00:17:31
grapes Vine Well,00:17:36
the crisis begins and the forces of RS open ots00:17:40
FT Pharm is huge, as they would now say, an00:17:43
agro-industrial holding company that is00:17:45
engaged in the fruit business. And in general,00:17:46
if we look further ahead from the 21st century00:17:48
to the 10th 22nd century, this company laid00:17:52
the foundation for the agricultural fruit00:17:54
business in which fruits are grown and00:17:57
exported and in Great Britain, Cecil00:18:01
grew rich, he is very popular, he has a very00:18:12
charismatic parliament, he begins00:18:14
to become a politician and he does it all00:18:17
very well. Why00:18:21
was Rots an00:18:23
absolute fan of the British Empire? Well, that00:18:26
is, he believed this is his quote that00:18:29
Britain is the first first race, the00:18:31
more territories we master the The more00:18:34
British people are born, the better it will be for00:18:36
the world because we bring order to everyone, an00:18:39
education system and a better world, and00:18:41
in fact,00:18:44
he declares these tasks to London. That00:18:47
is, he says, I’m not just making money here,00:18:49
I’m developing territories, I’m00:18:51
rounding up the black population of the Armed Forces here when I00:18:54
unite them to the Crown. and in fact we00:18:56
are developing the Empire cartoon famous00:18:59
Colos of Rhodes is an antique such an00:19:01
antique Wonder of the World Colos of Roski here he is00:19:04
standing Cecil Rhodes and he has long legs00:19:07
he connects two continents Europe and00:19:09
Africa he was an absolute imperial dude00:19:11
who thought exclusively in the paradigm of00:19:13
the Empire Britain is the Empire over00:19:16
which the sun never sets, he was00:19:18
obsessed with the red line from Cairo to the Cape,00:19:21
that is, imagine where00:19:23
Cape Town is and where Cairo is. This is the00:19:25
red line because on the maps of that00:19:27
time the English territories were00:19:29
indicated in red or pink,00:19:32
this red line should be all00:19:34
a territory that is a colony of00:19:37
Great Britain He wanted to build the00:19:39
Cape Town Cairo road, it was partially built in general.00:19:42
Everything was very successful, that is, here is00:19:44
business, here is power and here Geopolitics and00:19:46
forces have grown at an00:19:49
astronomical pace with the Ministry of the00:19:52
Colony,00:19:54
he has slight roughness with the00:19:56
Ministry of the Colony of Britain00:19:59
because they see that he is self-governing there and00:20:01
that in general he thinks more about his own pocket,00:20:02
but still in London He was00:20:05
very popular and they believed that this is what a00:20:06
real Brit should look like, a00:20:08
British subject who thinks00:20:10
only about the Motherland, a real patriot and he00:20:12
really cares about this moved well and not even00:20:14
that he moved, he really believed in it,00:20:16
he lived by it and in00:20:19
1889 he formed the British South00:20:23
African Corp. he received the right to develop00:20:26
territories from the Limpopo River,00:20:29
that is, Well, it’s just that00:20:31
he was given the right to create all nearby African territories00:20:34
on these territories in00:20:36
the interests of the crown Of course, their police should00:20:39
sign international treaties with00:20:41
local tribes and have PMCs of their own00:20:44
army, everything is with sisiro. Well, he is moving at a00:20:47
breakneck pace and in the same00:20:51
1889,00:20:57
the company The Bears, which begins to00:21:01
control diamond mining, we00:21:04
will return to it at the end of our program, what is it00:21:06
I’ll show you the numbers, he comes to00:21:08
London and signs an agreement with the00:21:11
Diamond syndicat, that is, a company00:21:13
that determines prices for the sale of diamonds,00:21:17
everything is very convenient; in London,00:21:19
sales prices are determined. And here in Cape Town, here in00:21:21
Kimberley in South Africa, all sales are in the00:21:24
hands of the British, thus to actually00:21:27
monopolize the trade, mining and00:21:29
trade of diamonds, and moreover, there00:21:32
were such amazing statistics that00:21:34
plus or minus they knew how many people in Europe get00:21:36
married every year, how many00:21:39
married couples are formed. Therefore, you need to produce00:21:40
exactly the same amount of stones, and even better, a little00:21:42
less to create an artificial00:21:43
excitement, keep the rest in stock and00:21:46
the company, of course, begins to00:21:48
progress, progress,00:21:49
progress, and in 1890, Cecil Roth00:21:52
becomes Prime Minister Capa, the00:21:54
main person in South Africa and the main00:21:57
representative of the00:21:58
Koro Sun, of course, he is good at00:22:01
understanding the size of this person in general. There00:22:03
was a country, the territory of Zambezia, which00:22:06
was inhabited by00:22:10
black tribes, all of them were declared a00:22:12
colony of Great Britain and renamed00:22:15
Rodez by the name sila ro, these were the new00:22:18
territories that the English Crown grew in00:22:20
and everything in general was good, but00:22:26
it was00:22:29
because, well, there was no war with them, but these00:22:32
territories. Of course, they are mainly with00:22:35
English-speaking miners and are controlled by00:22:37
debt, but this is not the property of the English00:22:39
crown and these Boers need to be transvaal00:22:42
in particular and the Orange Republic needs to be00:22:43
managed somehow, it’s better to00:22:46
annex everything to the Crown because they are00:22:48
very greyhounds, they are constantly there,00:22:51
threatening us with the joints of the real00:22:56
man who, of course, incited this war00:22:59
because of - for diamonds and gold in00:23:03
1895, Jason's raid took place, this is not00:23:07
Jameson's whiskey. And the man's name was00:23:09
Jameson, he was the head of a PMC of a British00:23:12
mining company, he was supported by00:23:15
Russia, the plan was such a cavalry detachment to00:23:19
quickly enter the Transvaal and00:23:21
overthrow the local00:23:23
government there while the Boers were there.00:23:25
their sls with carbines came to the00:23:30
mother's RTO indeed the hall of Ray Jason and00:23:33
at first did not meet any00:23:35
resistance because there were no Boers00:23:37
with rifles and then at night a00:23:39
Boer came out of nowhere and surrounded00:23:41
this Jason. They took him prisoner and said to00:23:43
get in here again, we're just00:23:45
at war now. let's go to hell with the Republic of Cap and00:23:49
to hell we'll get you out of here and00:23:52
the most severe political crisis and in 1895 he00:23:56
resigned from the post of00:23:59
Prime Minister of Cap but the parties00:24:01
understand that this is not the end, this is the beginning and00:24:04
these next years from 1895 to00:24:08
1899 the parties begin to prepare for war00:24:11
as the parties prepare for war the British00:24:14
naturally bring up troops from00:24:16
overseas saturate the00:24:19
territories of their colonies with soldiers the Boers are00:24:23
preparing for war buying weapons00:24:25
buying from Germany Germany here the wife is00:24:27
already in conflict with Great Britain puts00:24:29
her finger in Africa and00:24:33
Mauser machine guns are supplied there in pistols00:24:37
grains of steel are supplied there and in general00:24:42
the Germans in many ways arm the Boers00:24:44
constant mutual claims from the British00:24:46
the claim is very simple you Outlander00:24:48
these Outlanders00:24:50
who work in the mines should be00:24:53
given civil rights should be given them the00:24:55
right to vote you don’t give this we00:24:57
insist because it’s ours it our00:25:00
British world, we will protect it. And the00:25:02
Boers were told that your world is not here,00:25:04
these are guest workers and descendants00:25:05
of guest workers. We will not give them anything, and00:25:07
because of this, a diplomatic conflict00:25:09
begins and, in general, all this00:25:12
is declared as a conflict around00:25:13
human suffrage, in00:25:15
fact, we understand that everything goes because of00:25:18
everything starts because of diamonds and gold August 29,00:25:22
1899 British Colonial Secretary00:25:25
Joseph Chamberlin daddy00:25:27
Nela Chamberlin who00:25:30
will sign the Munich Pact which you have already seen the program00:25:32
that is, the generation never leaves the00:25:33
British stage anywhere in its life Joseph00:25:35
Chamberlin makes demands of the00:25:37
Transvaal and the free Orange00:25:40
Republic for voting rights and00:25:42
recognition, full recognition of suzerainty and the00:25:46
English00:25:48
crown, the Boers reject this whole matter and on00:25:51
October 9, the Trans puts forward its ultimatum to the British.00:25:54
You must withdraw00:25:56
troops from our borders and00:26:00
withdraw completely new units that00:26:03
arrived from the British Isles. you have00:26:06
48 hours to do this. If you do not comply with00:26:09
our demands, then we will consider ourselves00:26:11
in a state of war. So, in fact, this00:26:14
dispatch goes to London and Queen Victoria,00:26:18
in the typical English style, replies that00:26:21
we are sorry, we have become familiar with your00:26:23
demands. Unfortunately, at the moment00:26:24
we We do not have the opportunity to carry them out.00:26:28
This is war and on October 11 the war begins. On00:26:32
October 12 the Boers cross the border and00:26:36
attack the Kaska colony here, just00:26:39
like me, a reasonable question will arise for00:26:41
these brave Desperate Boers, what were they00:26:44
counting on when entering into the war with00:26:46
Great Britain? They were counting on00:26:48
that the Boers had about 283 under arms,00:26:56
with also about 283,000 people, that is, we are00:27:00
quickly shooting them all now, they00:27:02
will not have time to pull up from the00:27:06
English islands or transfer any units from India there,00:27:08
we will quickly00:27:10
occupy the territory here when they arrive, we will00:27:13
simply not give them they will land00:27:14
next time and then the00:27:17
Boers still live in the Helmet colony from the time the00:27:20
British captured it, an uprising will begin there,00:27:22
it will support us and, in fact, we00:27:25
very quickly went through this war and you were00:27:29
counting on exactly the opposite. They00:27:31
expected that we would now00:27:32
hold out here in our fortified forts and00:27:34
then the Marn will give us troops and00:27:38
equipment, which is exactly what00:27:40
happened once again in bold Let’s00:27:42
emphasize 283,000 Boers 28,000 28 dashes00:27:46
30,00000:27:48
British during the war, the00:27:50
British Nastya their contingent of up to00:27:53
200,000 people so that it is clear what kind of00:27:55
war this is, this is where it is - then in00:27:57
textbooks the Anglo-Boer War 200,00000:28:00
people the crown took this very00:28:02
seriously the first period00:28:05
1899 19900 it is developing very super successfully00:28:11
for the Boers the Boers enter the00:28:14
territory of00:28:19
the Cape Doves in this territory in one00:28:22
detachment Detachment Crane the second - this is the00:28:24
Boer commander besieging the00:28:26
famous Kimberley if you heard00:28:28
somewhere a kimberlite pipe when one is in grief talking00:28:30
about diamonds, here is Kimberley - this is the00:28:32
place where diamonds are mined in00:28:34
Kimberley sits Sea Force Rhodes Cecil Roth00:28:37
sits arming his company builds00:28:39
armored trains and that means, according to the testimony of00:28:42
English military leaders, he generally does00:28:44
more harm than good because00:28:46
he is completely crazy about war, he00:28:48
doesn’t understand anything, but he has a lot of money and in00:28:50
general he is tolerated. On December 11,00:28:53
189, the Battle of the00:28:58
Boers besieged Kimberley and cut the00:29:01
railway. They sit and guard the tracks so00:29:04
that no supply of supplies and soldiers00:29:06
is possible. Accordingly, the British are00:29:09
trying e lift the siege and the British00:29:11
attack the English army is a00:29:13
professional army00:29:15
it leads it in formations storms00:29:20
the heights it knows how to attack it00:29:23
has cavalry it has artillery and00:29:26
in fact the00:29:27
British are making art preparations and00:29:30
moving to the heights that the Boers occupy00:29:33
and in some moment the British officers00:29:35
begin to fall00:29:38
lifeless that until this moment before the00:29:41
Boer War, when a00:29:43
man was shot from a gun, the gunpowder released smoke and it00:29:46
was clear where they were shooting from, and therefore00:29:49
fire was applied at this point from everything00:29:51
possible, and the Boers at this00:29:54
moment were already using German abyss gunpowder and kind of00:29:57
shooting, no hakes in sight, the00:30:00
British are walking in their famous00:30:01
red uniforms from the officers and the flight00:30:03
is visible in Who to shoot, so the00:30:05
profession of a sniper appeared, he00:30:14
grabbed the drills and they sit in these trenches, they00:30:17
shoot and they can’t be smoked with guns00:30:20
or at bayonet point, they can’t be taken and the British00:30:22
carry monstrous losses Well, of course,00:30:24
Listen here let's be honest,00:30:27
my beloved Scots suffered,00:30:30
of course, as usual, 85% of the black guard00:30:33
is an elite division that is now part of a00:30:36
battalion in the Royal Regiment of Scotland, this00:30:38
is the black guard that rushed in. The00:30:40
Scots never retreat to storm,00:30:42
remember the Crimean War the thin red00:30:44
line of Waterlow is obvious that well, how to00:30:47
die, well, the bagpipes were turned on. So00:30:49
you have to die, what to do, and 85% of the black00:30:52
guard died there00:30:54
and the British suffered terrible losses and the00:30:58
Siege of Kimberley was not lifted, and so for the00:31:01
first time the professional English00:31:02
army lost by storm Second Front00:31:05
Look on the map where it is located, this is the00:31:06
Natal front, the Boers enter00:31:09
the territory controlled by the United00:31:12
Kingdom, that is, the British, the British,00:31:14
take Charleston, take Newcastle,00:31:17
take Glencoe, these are not English cities00:31:19
that are located in England, these are cities with the00:31:21
same names in South Africa. On December 15,00:31:25
1899, the Battle of knees the00:31:28
British lose 143 people killed00:31:33
755 wounded 244 people missing00:31:37
losses of the Boers 50 people00:31:40
the British are defeated everyone thinks that this is00:31:43
the end and the British are now00:31:44
reformatting the war in general, but this is00:31:46
only the beginning and this story of00:31:49
subsequent battles will go down in the history of England00:31:52
in the history of the Anglo-Boer wars like black00:31:54
week, the British will suffer defeat00:31:56
for the defeat in the euro, everyone will00:31:58
applaud, it must be said that Europe00:32:00
will be for the Boers from the very beginning, that is, in this00:32:02
war there are no good ones, and the Boers oppressed the00:32:05
black population of Africa and turned00:32:08
them into slaves, but then the noble00:32:10
English came and said about slavery -00:32:12
This is bad, so we just annexed these00:32:14
territories, we will00:32:26
join,00:32:28
which resulted on December 10,00:32:30
1899, Stomberg, the next battle, 2600:32:35
people were killed by the British, 68 people were00:32:38
wounded, it seemed that there were generally insignificant00:32:40
losses among the Boers, zero losses, 69600:32:43
British people surrendered, it was completely00:32:46
impossible to imagine England00:32:48
fought the Colonial Wars with everyone in the wrath of00:32:50
sleep in India, 696 people surrendered to the00:32:54
peasants, these are the battles they00:32:59
went down in history, three battles like the Black00:33:02
Week, the British had never been so00:33:04
humiliated, but the Boers outmaneuvered them in the first stage of the war00:33:06
and destroyed them, but not completely,00:33:09
as it turned out the second the period began with00:33:12
the fact that the British very quickly replaced the00:33:15
commander of the man who00:33:17
commanded the English troops, they removed him and00:33:19
left him at the front, he remained in00:33:21
command of the division, but he was removed from the00:33:23
position of commander in chief and replaced by00:33:25
Lord Roberts, the British brought00:33:28
60,000 reinforcements from overseas. What does this00:33:31
mean? This means that there is an advantage in terms of00:33:33
manpower, it’s not just big, it’s monstrous. That00:33:36
is, for now it’s twice 60,000 - This is00:33:38
only the first delivery, then there will be a00:33:39
second, third, and so on. 200,00000:33:41
people will eventually come to fight00:33:43
in South Africa and everything is starting00:33:47
to change for the British. Well, first of all, they understand that in00:33:49
red uniforms, in general, they are living00:33:52
targets, so the Khaki uniform00:33:54
appeared there because no one on the field00:33:57
wants to be a target any longer, here is00:33:59
the formation attack when the British00:34:01
marched in formation to the Boer positions, that’s it. This story is00:34:03
over because everyone has already arrived where they should have.00:34:05
Who goes to hell and who goes to captivity and the00:34:08
British began to use the same00:34:09
Burs tactics, so an attack in00:34:12
scattered chains appeared when a group of soldiers00:34:15
at a great distance from each other in a00:34:18
chain begins to attack, some00:34:20
move closer to the opposite side, others00:34:21
go around the flanks a little further and00:34:23
make a decision based on the terrain,00:34:25
this one here's the thin red00:34:28
line that was in the Crimean War, it's all00:34:30
over with this story the British00:34:32
completely change tactics and they have an advantage they have an00:34:36
advantage in artillery and manpower00:34:38
February 12 They lift the siege of Kimberley00:34:41
defend their diamonds defend their00:34:44
diamonds 2 September well the battle has begun 1800:34:48
ended on February 27, the Battle of Parr00:34:51
was won by the British, and Victory,00:34:53
of course, is not important, but Victory is quite00:34:55
sensitive in terms of losses: 38800:35:00
killed, 1,200 wounded, 5900:35:03
missing, the Boers lose 350 people, but00:35:07
4,000 Boers are surrounded and00:35:11
surrendered, so the British besieged00:35:13
their camp and did not they allowed the00:35:16
unit to approach and for the first time the00:35:19
British used balloons to00:35:21
correct the artillery fire, this00:35:24
also wasn’t the case, there was firewood, they raised the00:35:27
balloons up, they saw first where the00:35:30
Boer positions began to fire00:35:32
aimed artillery fire at them, they realized00:35:35
that the Boers wanted to escape across the river and were00:35:36
building a pantone, the crossing was adjusted00:35:39
according to Her artillery fire to00:35:41
hell broke these pantons and 4,00000:35:43
people, in general, the core of the Boer army00:35:46
surrendered, the forces of the parties in this battle00:35:48
were of course dramatically not in favor of the00:35:50
Boers, the British had 35,000 people, the00:35:53
Boers had 5,000 people, that is, it is clear00:35:55
that Aa chances there wasn’t and the British00:35:59
didn’t storm the camp. They simply put it under00:36:00
siege and waited for the people to00:36:02
surrender; the second battle was on the same days, 14th dash,00:36:06
27th February.00:36:07
And this is the battle at the Tugel heights and the00:36:12
British won it again, again00:36:15
dramatic superiority 20,00000:36:17
British 5,000 Boers and beyond It’s absolutely00:36:21
clear that nothing good will happen00:36:24
because the Boers were knocked out of the core of their army by the00:36:28
British, as they say, gathered00:36:40
to regroup after00:36:42
literally a short time in the capital of00:36:44
the Transvaal from the capital of the free00:36:46
Orange Republic, the British fell, came there on00:36:50
May 3, Her Majesty’s subjects00:36:54
crossed the Vaal River and On May 29, Doorn00:36:59
Kop fell on May 31, the British captured00:37:03
Johannesburg on June 5, Pretoria fell, the00:37:06
capital of the Transvaal in September 19,00:37:11
1900, President Kruger, the Boer president,00:37:14
fled first to East Africa, this is a00:37:16
colony of Portugal, and from there to Europe,00:37:18
thus the war seemed to00:37:21
have ended, the British won, and then the00:37:24
third period began the most terrible thing is00:37:27
that the Boers did not give up and switched to00:37:29
guerrilla00:37:33
warfare, the Boers fought, waged a guerrilla00:37:37
war for another 2 years, the balance of forces00:37:40
was already, of course, dramatic, by guns the00:37:42
Boers had 15,000 by guns the British had 20000:37:45
dashes 250 people. That is, you00:37:48
understand how seriously the crown00:37:50
took this What enormous resources00:37:52
were involved, but the situation00:37:56
turned out quite badly for the British00:37:58
because what is guerrilla warfare,00:38:01
this means that the Boers have no regular troops, they have00:38:03
no capital, they capitulated, but00:38:07
resistance, that is, it is in every00:38:09
hut, it is on every farm, it is00:38:12
simply on every agricultural00:38:15
land, the British control the territory00:38:17
during the day at night, the Boers come, shoot everyone,00:38:19
slaughter everyone, and here he is, the00:38:21
mythical Christian devet, this is the main00:38:24
Partisan whose simply the British00:38:27
assign huge sums for the capture of this00:38:30
man, the legendary Partisan00:38:32
general who leads, in general, the entire00:38:35
guerrilla war against the British and the00:38:37
British can do nothing about it they can’t,00:38:39
the climate is terrible, the British don’t have maps, but00:38:42
they exist, but they are bad, and the Boers00:38:44
grew up there, they know these bumps without any00:38:46
maps, and during the day, the English government at night, at night, the00:38:49
Boer power, the00:38:51
British are forced to defend their00:38:53
railways and along the railway there are00:38:56
lines of telegraph poles, this is the connection00:38:58
the British are the Boers are00:39:01
constantly protecting the whole thing; they are destroying breaking00:39:04
telegraph communications; the British are using it. For00:39:07
the first time, they are using armored trains; and00:39:10
armored trains, look how they looked00:39:12
in this picture; the hairy00:39:14
Mary train, on which the English journalist00:39:17
Winston Churchill works, is hairy,00:39:20
because the locomotive is protected by ropes from00:39:23
bullets; the carriages are00:39:25
armored; the case;00:39:27
the tank is protected by a huge00:39:29
number of ropes, as if Hair is00:39:31
growing out of the steam locomotive, from here hairy Mary the00:39:34
British change tactics, they take00:39:36
the locomotive, move it to the center of the train,00:39:39
in front, first there is a platform on which there00:39:41
is a gun or a Lewis machine gun, and then00:39:44
there is a carriage, then there is a steam locomotive and then00:39:46
two more brown carriages it’s a clearing and00:39:48
when they mine the tracks, they first00:39:50
let the first two carriages pass,00:39:53
then they detonate the mine and the locomotive explodes,00:39:55
and this happens at night and the00:39:58
British can’t do anything about it, and the00:40:01
British understand that they have to fight this somehow. to pay00:40:05
tribute, of course, to the completely00:40:07
diabolical ingenuity of those presented to00:40:09
Her Majesty, they already used it in Egypt00:40:12
and in Afghanistan partially, but00:40:15
in the South there is no one yet, but in the00:40:18
Anglo-Boer War This, of course, has reached00:40:21
simply perfection. What the British are doing00:40:25
in the first place is all on the side of the Boers. It is00:40:27
quite00:40:28
obvious to break it’s hard to break it00:40:31
can be either with money or repression and00:40:35
the second is that the Boers know00:40:37
the area better They quickly dissolve during the day00:40:40
they are farmers at night they are00:40:42
Partisans need to guard the railway00:40:44
and that’s how the first one in the history of00:40:47
mankind appears Well, not of humanity probably00:40:48
But the first one known to us in the history of war00:40:50
checkpoint the British build checkpoints at a00:40:52
very short distance along the00:40:54
railways CX RO railway00:40:57
lines00:40:58
checkpoints build a gaus block in which00:41:01
8-10 people can sit, sometimes less00:41:04
and build 88,000 such checkpoints,00:41:06
in 2 years they build 8,000 of00:41:09
these, this is not a fortification, this is somewhere00:41:10
made of boards, somewhere made of stones, the main thing is that00:41:13
the terrain is visible, the00:41:15
Boers don’t have any artillery, there are only rifles,00:41:18
and from this checkpoint you can conduct00:41:20
aimed fire simply 360° and no one will00:41:23
approach from one checkpoint to another00:41:26
checkpoint, there is barbed wire, also for00:41:29
the first time since, but this is the first time was00:41:31
used in the civil war between the00:41:32
north and south, which the British00:41:35
learned well. Apparently because they did00:41:36
not participate in it, it was taught00:41:38
at their universities. But all these Lewis machine guns are00:41:41
new, new methods of warfare,00:41:45
barbed wire, that’s all in the00:41:47
civil war of the North and the south was00:41:49
thus00:41:50
the territory of the Transvaal and the free00:41:53
Orange Republic, it is lined with this00:41:55
prickly pro lo Blow from checkpoint to00:41:58
checkpoint and there are armored trains on the railways,00:42:00
what should be done next?00:42:07
We00:42:10
freed you from slavery once.00:42:13
Be our guides, tell us00:42:16
where there are partisan cells. Because00:42:18
when we manage them all now,00:42:25
how can normal00:42:27
people live in general and the black population00:42:30
of course goes over to the side of the crown, they00:42:32
begin to fight against the00:42:34
Boers, this is the second moment, the third moment -00:42:37
this is the land of support for the local00:42:39
population. So it is necessary to burn the pasture,00:42:42
kill the livestock, take away the provinces so that00:42:45
the partisans have nowhere to feed themselves. And00:42:47
this is where the journey of the00:42:49
partisan armies begins, as in the corrals of the country,00:42:51
covered with barbed wire and the Boers who are here, and it’s00:42:54
just partisans with00:42:57
rifles with them, families with them at home00:43:00
they begin to move and the00:43:02
British use tactics such as00:43:05
huge cavalry detachments that00:43:07
take the terrain, divide it into squares and in a00:43:09
continuous chain like this. Then the Germans will be in the00:43:12
Second World War, clear our forests from the00:43:15
Partisans and the British thus00:43:21
read the Boers into the squares and, in00:43:24
fact, get them there but there remains the last00:43:27
moment of what to do with the civilian population00:43:29
and the British will come up with such a thing, we need00:43:31
to separate the civilians from the non-civilians,00:43:33
we will kill the non-civilians because we are at war with them00:43:34
and we will put the civilians in specially00:43:37
designated reservations that we00:43:39
will call concentration camps, this is how00:43:41
concentration camps appear, this is not00:43:43
Hitler's invention, they first appeared in the00:43:45
Spanish war in Cuba. The Spaniards made them, but the00:43:47
British. The Spaniards, as we understand it, are00:43:49
quite careless people, and they only succeeded in this technique of00:43:52
exterminating the population in the00:43:54
Inquisition, then they stopped00:43:56
mastering this craft, the British00:43:58
simplified it and the civilian population itself00:44:01
began to be persecuted in the cons and this of00:44:03
course caused a wild scandal in Europe, just a shock00:44:05
because well, there were women and children there,00:44:07
they naturally died there, first00:44:09
tens died, then hundreds then thousands,00:44:12
but nevertheless, for 2 years, checkpoints,00:44:16
barbed wire, constant monitoring00:44:18
of the terrain, scorched earth tactics00:44:21
when all the pastures and concentration camps were burned00:44:24
in 2 years Realizing that supporting the Partisans was00:44:27
of course more expensive for themselves, this new00:44:29
model, or as the British called it,00:44:31
the pens of the new model00:44:33
And ultimately the Boer resistance00:44:37
was broken and on May 31, 1902 a00:44:42
peace treaty was concluded that the00:44:45
parties signed, what was in it In the peace treaty on00:44:47
May 31, 1902, the Boers recognized the00:44:50
annexation of the Transvaal and the free00:44:53
Orange Republic, and they recognized the00:44:57
power of the English crown in exchange for an00:44:59
amnesty to all participants in the war, the British00:45:02
declared an amnesty, then naturally all the00:45:05
oilans received the right to vote,00:45:08
received equal civil rights, the Boers00:45:12
within the framework of the fact that the territory was00:45:14
promised to be annexed by the power of the crown00:45:16
full self-government after some00:45:19
time and they even paid compensation for00:45:23
this taken out land, the crown paid l00:45:26
pounds, which was approximately 25% of the00:45:29
real losses from real land burned by00:45:31
villages. That is, 9 million were pennies, the00:45:34
British paid them, there was still a question with the00:45:36
black population, the British left him they00:45:37
also promised everything, but as you understand,00:45:40
they gave exactly zero, they received nothing,00:45:43
the blacks who were allies,00:45:45
guides who helped the British,00:45:47
why didn’t they get it because it was00:45:48
all included in the Eighth Amendment, from00:45:50
which the apartheid system00:45:53
and the South African Republic were later born in the00:45:56
amendment in the eighth article, or rather of this00:45:57
treaty it was written that over time the00:46:00
Boer population would receive full00:46:03
self-government, and as part of obtaining00:46:06
this self-government, the black population itself would decide whether to00:46:08
grant them00:46:10
rights or not, therefore, when00:46:12
SA was formed, the Boers said in the same place it00:46:15
is written that we ourselves We don’t want that, we wo00:46:16
n’t provide anything and this is how apartheid was born,00:46:18
this is not the topic of our today's00:46:20
program, but nevertheless, to know00:46:24
where the legs grow from00:46:26
this union00:46:27
treaty in 1910, all these territories00:46:31
received the name Union of South Africa and00:46:34
became part of the British Commonwealth00:46:37
as a Dominion, like Australia, like Canada at00:46:39
that time moment New Zealand and so on,00:46:42
and there was a very interesting Alliance, the00:46:44
whole economy was handled by the British and00:46:47
politics by the Boers and in this00:46:49
Union of South Africa the politicians And in general the00:46:52
main politicians were the former Boer00:46:54
generals, also an amazing moment But00:46:57
how would they be distributed the British00:47:00
brought 50,000 Chinese who began to00:47:03
mine gold and diamonds. Well, what does it mean to00:47:05
mine, to work in mines that00:47:07
belonged to the British? And that’s how this00:47:10
story ended again, and a small00:47:13
war in the textbook, here’s a paragraph,00:47:15
look how much money it cost00:47:17
the British, as I already told you,00:47:20
200-250,000 soldiers were brought there that is, the entire00:47:23
most combat-ready part of the army They00:47:26
threw the Anglo Burse war into the crown The war00:47:28
cost 250 million pounds sterling the drill00:47:33
cost 100 million pounds sterling That00:47:36
is, together the two fighting sides00:47:39
spent 350 million pounds sterling so00:47:41
that this money is approximately equal to the00:47:42
pre-war annual budget of the Russian00:47:44
Empire this is how the00:47:46
victims were burned, Wikipedia says00:47:49
that the British lost 20-25,000 people, the00:47:53
British themselves give the figure 75,00000:47:57
dead, the rest died from an epidemic00:48:00
of the disease, the consequences of the disease died, the Boers00:48:03
lost 8,000 in this war and 20,000 in the00:48:07
Cong for the Boers,00:48:11
this war gave an absolutely monstrous figure a lot in military00:48:14
affairs Well, firstly, all the00:48:17
leading powers observed it and saw how it00:48:19
would be, what kind of inventions were there to00:48:22
exterminate other00:48:24
people,00:48:27
many00:48:28
terrible things began to be used en masse,00:48:31
machine guns of mothers, which you know from00:48:35
films about the civil war, machine guns,00:48:36
artillery and rifles that became00:48:39
store-bought, that is, more rapid-fire00:48:41
They have completely changed the art of war00:48:44
instead of bayonet fighting I am putting up 60000:48:46
bayonets And you are 500 who is collecting whom the bayonet00:48:49
fight is leaving The fire fight has00:48:52
begun The era of artillery The era of fire00:48:55
fighting trenches and barbed wire appear00:48:57
For the first time in the Boer War Khakis00:49:00
that I said about appear for the first time in the00:49:01
Anglo-Boer War, smokeless gunpowder, an00:49:05
invention that00:49:07
was actually tested there, explosive00:49:11
dum-dum bullets that flew into a person and00:49:13
exploded inside were banned throughout00:49:15
Europe even then it was impossible to00:49:17
use them, it was like, well, a00:49:20
crime, an unjust way of waging00:49:22
war, but Ironically, the two countries did not00:49:25
sign00:49:26
the Agreement on the non-use of00:49:28
dum-dum bullets, these are the British and the Boers. Well, they00:49:31
shot each other with these bullets, and00:49:33
there were such amazing00:49:35
things when the Boers captured the ammunition depot,00:49:38
there were00:49:39
these dum-dum cartridges and they shot them, they00:49:43
started shooting with these cartridges at the00:49:45
British, the British wrote in00:49:47
their newspapers that it was inhumane and00:49:49
terrible to use such weapons00:49:50
against ourselves. Well, that is, completely00:49:52
complete hypocrites, heavy artillery00:49:55
appeared on the battlefield, the Boers rolled out00:49:58
heavy siege guns or defensive00:50:00
guns,00:50:03
rolled out at the British in the English00:50:05
garrisons, the British used00:50:08
armored trains for the first time, as I already said, this is an00:50:11
invention of the Boer War, there are00:50:12
no such mobile tanks yet.00:50:14
Yes, these are such mobile00:50:16
formations. And snipers appeared, also a00:50:20
profession that appeared in general during the00:50:22
Boer War and of course00:50:26
showed it to the world what is00:50:28
the anti-party scorched earth tactics00:50:31
all this will be used in the First00:50:32
World War because observers from00:50:34
France Germany were all at00:50:37
this war everyone watched what was00:50:38
happening there What kind of new battle tactics I must00:50:42
say that I already mentioned this that00:50:45
Europe Of course was on the side00:50:47
mainly the Boers because00:50:50
everyone already hated the British, they climbed into all the00:50:52
holes they saw from00:50:53
Singapore and Hong Kong to Afghanistan and00:50:58
South Africa they were present everywhere00:50:59
they got everyone especially at that moment00:51:02
Well, the figure is simply 250000:51:05
people from Europe left as volunteers00:51:08
to fight in the country of the Boers, the French, the Danes, the00:51:11
Germans and the Russians in Russian newspapers there was00:51:13
complete unity with the Boers New time00:51:17
writes out of its deep Faith in God the Boers to00:51:20
us to us Russians siblings and Russians00:51:24
volunteers traveled famous poems00:51:27
Transvaal my country You are all burning In the00:51:29
fire these are Russian poems this the song was00:51:31
quite popular at that moment00:51:34
and the Empire was closely following the war,00:51:37
two military agents Stakhovich00:51:40
and Gurko were sent, they entered the territory of the00:51:43
Boers 2-3 days before the start of00:51:45
hostilities, the emperor signed everything, said00:51:48
Yes, it is necessary to send agents to00:51:49
observe what is happening there traces00:51:51
Stakhovich after the revolution are lost and00:51:53
Gurko was an absolutely outstanding00:51:55
leader both during the war and00:51:57
during the Russian-Japanese War and during the00:51:58
First World War after the revolution00:52:00
he went to Italy and worked there. In general, A00:52:03
was a prominent figure in the Russian emigration;00:52:06
he fought quite a lot; one of the00:52:08
absolutely legendary people - this is00:52:10
Evgeny Maksimov, who came to the00:52:12
war and received the title of General from the hands of the Boers.00:52:15
Two foreigners received the title of00:52:17
General. This is the rank of General. This is Maksimov and the00:52:19
Frenchman Wilbur, who died in this00:52:22
war, he also fought for the Boers. the00:52:28
Russian-Japanese war will begin, he will00:52:30
volunteer for it and die under Mukden, the00:52:32
Georgian prince Bagrationi Muhrat, he is in00:52:35
Africa, which means on the eve of the war he hunts00:52:38
Lions and elephants and suddenly they find out that there is00:52:41
a war there, he goes there00:52:42
and fights with the British, he comes00:52:45
back to Russia after the war, he writes a book00:52:47
finds out that half of the gossip there, of course,00:52:48
was taken by him from newspapers.00:52:50
He did not command any regiment. But he really00:52:52
took part there, which means that the00:52:55
future politician Guchkov and his brother, the00:52:57
future star of the State Duma, are00:53:00
fighting on the side of the Boers. He is going as a volunteer.00:53:03
Eugene Augustus, who wrote the00:53:05
famous Memoirs about this war, too00:53:08
Russian officer who went as a00:53:10
volunteer Alexander Esson went as a00:53:13
volunteer he will later be a prominent00:53:15
Bolshevik known in the future pilot00:53:18
Nikolai Popov also fights on the side of the00:53:20
Boers in Russia, there is00:53:21
complete unity with the Boer people,00:53:25
signatures are collected in support,00:53:27
money is collected for ammunition for those who go to00:53:29
fight there as volunteers and the Russians00:53:32
there in general, they are fighting quite well Well, in00:53:36
general, there are a lot of stars in this war Well, about00:53:38
Churchill. I already said that Churchill will be a00:53:40
journalist on Hairy Mary, and00:53:42
he will come from the Daily mail. Yes, from the publication00:53:44
that will wipe your feet on the00:53:46
English crown in the next 85 years, he will00:53:48
end up in captivity will heroically escape from00:53:50
this captivity. Look at the episode about Church,00:53:52
I told you everything in detail there, and in00:53:55
general, after the Boer War, he00:53:57
will return to England as a hero and his00:53:58
political career will fly up the00:54:00
main Peacemaker of all times and peoples,00:54:02
Mahat Ma Gandhi. What does he do during the00:54:03
Boer War?00:54:05
he is one of the military Medics on the side of the00:54:08
British, he is subordinate there. I don’t00:54:10
know. He commands not a division, but some00:54:13
formation of Medics and He00:54:15
participates in the Boer War. Rudyard00:54:17
Kipling is another Imperial praising this00:54:20
Empire over which00:54:22
the sun never sets every winter he I was on holiday with my family in00:54:25
Cape Town and during the Anglo-Boer War,00:54:27
he also leaned there, of course, and that00:54:30
is, there were a lot of stars in this war. I must00:54:32
say00:54:33
that the war00:54:35
ended,00:54:37
but the British, having won it, suffered,00:54:40
of course, a severe moral defeat; did00:54:42
it bother them much? Of course, I don’t00:54:44
know, I think which is approximately nothing00:54:46
because the whole of Europe remembered these00:54:48
concentration camps as atrocities, especially the Germans00:54:50
exaggerated all this and the British Seva then it’s00:54:53
very interesting to00:54:55
read English historians, I read one00:54:56
historian who said that, in principle, the00:54:59
good deed of a camp for the civilian00:55:02
population turned into such a horrific00:55:04
disaster Who would have thought00:55:06
Indeed, who would have thought that people00:55:07
there were kept in conditions of skepticism and00:55:09
died from an epidemic of hunger; a truly00:55:12
good deed turned into such a nightmare. In00:55:13
general, the Germans will remember the concentration camps for00:55:15
them until 1939, when they learned00:55:19
to open their own. But the British were00:55:22
like this right at the00:55:24
moment when we are talking00:55:27
imperially, this is the British Empire that00:55:31
simply 100% meets these criteria, and00:55:34
at the beginning of the 20th century, the British, of course, are00:55:37
not liked in Europe, to put it mildly, and throughout00:55:40
the world, and they come in like such a powerful00:55:44
ear that sticks its nose into all the00:55:47
affairs it can find to00:55:49
summarize in the end I would like to say that00:55:51
yes, as you can see, this war was very00:55:54
good for the crown. This is a war that,00:55:56
of course, became a testing ground and the00:55:59
forerunner of the First World War, the parties00:56:02
