[edit] Information

When Russia takes up arms, the world holds its breath. Over centuries, the immense empire has been shaped by battles won – and lost – and those who led the forces that fought in them.

[edit] Chapter 1: Empire of the Czars

Peter and Catherine the Great - these Tsars conquer parts of Northern Europe, the Crimea, and the Caucasian region by force. Their successors defend the empire against Napoleon and establish Russia among the great powers.

[edit] Chapter 2: The Soviet Union

The Red Army, forged by Leon Trotsky from revolutionary guards and members of the Tsarist troops, becomes the sword of Communist Russia.

[edit] Chapter 3: The Russian Federation

With Putin, the army regains its force and momentum. His wars in Georgia, Chechnya and Ukraine betray the cunning spirit of a secret service man, always ready to lay the blame on Western liberal states.
