Now the younger generation reads much less, give them films and programs. Write a maximum of sms, read at least the same sms, and as a maximum a magazine. So far, my students have only had enough for pictures, the essence for them is shaky and vague, and what difference does it make what was there, it is important what is and what will be. But my life experience tells me: without looking back, you will never know where to go, because you never know where you came from.
The older generation firmly believes in what they were told, in what they were forced to learn from memory, socialism, communism, atheism. And that those who lead know exactly which path, course, direction to choose. Although many are already looking at them in confusion, not realizing that the course is not straight, but curved, and their life has passed like a non-stop running in a circle.
My history teacher recently told me:
- Do not take away those crumbs that are left to us, faith in what we were taught. I'm tired of believing in the party, Lenin and Stalin, but you swung at Peter I himself, at the splendor of Russian history. Don't trample my last fairy tale, or people like me will trample you.
It's hard for them to understand me, I'm just trying to figure out:
What for?
For what?
Who benefits from?
Promotional video:
A person's consciousness is blinkered by the information that has been instilled in him since childhood. But it is worth pointing out to him the inconsistency of the imposed versions, as he immediately declares: I knew this the day before yesterday. So, most of our history was created precisely in order to confuse, divert from logical conclusions, distract from the perception of the whole picture, breaking this picture into puzzles and focusing on the most colorful, but explaining nothing fragments. Understanding comes only to a few. I want the ranks of thinkers to number in the thousands, tens of thousands, millions. Perhaps loud words, but I try, I do at least something. (ZigZag).
So now I sit and look at the old map of St. Petersburg, and I am amazed …
Plan of St. Petersburg I. Homann. Etching, cutter, watercolor on paper. 50.5x59.5 cm.1720th (before 1725).
And history says that St. Petersburg was founded on May 16, 1703 (the Tsar laid the first stone for the construction on May 16, 1703, on the day of the Holy Trinity. Here is the legend about the founding of the city), and that, this is all in 10-15 years, during winters - 35-40, midges, dampness, lack of roads and factories, I'm not talking about construction equipment. It is enough to glance at Vasilievsky Island, there is nothing yet, but there is a markup and layout, but what about the scale? No one in Europe has ever thought of such a layout, but here?
Summer Garden in 1716, by Alexey Zubov. In the speed of construction, "not like the current tribe", or there is a catch somewhere, maybe historians are lying? Some of the buildings depicted in this engraving, according to the official history, should appear much later, after the death of the author, but A. Zubov knows exactly what and where to draw.
Spiers can be seen in the distance to the left and to the right, the Mikhailovsky Castle on the left, the Savior on Spilled Blood on the right, and so: on April 17, 1819, the foundation of the Mikhailovsky Palace was laid. This day became the day of the founding of one of the largest museums in the world - the State Russian Museum. The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood was erected in 1883-1907, on the site where the Tsar-Liberator Alexander II was mortally wounded on March 1, 1881. But more on that below. Punctures of Zubov Montferan, Falconet, Schubert, Karamzin and the artistic gift of the well-known A. S. We will consider Pushkin in detail below.
An amendment came from violet3333 (a wonderful magazine, I'll tell you):
In the article "Where is the city" I found an inaccuracy in the description of Zubov's engraving - in fact, the Mikhailovsky Castle is in the center, on the left is the Church of Saints and Righteous Simeon the God-Receiver and Anna the Prophetess, on the right I do not know what but not the Savior on Spilled Blood.
But with all the amendments, Zubov still painted what, according to historical documents, should appear much later.
It is hard to believe that the planning, breakdown and referencing of the buildings of St. Petersburg under Peter 1 was carried out without surveyors, the scope and accuracy, volume and territory are striking. Or maybe the city stood long before the current historical version of its appearance?
1753 g.
19th century.
One more observation is very interesting in this regard.
When all of Europe lived in cities, where sewage systems hardly appeared under the streets, the width of which barely allowed the carts to pass, and the buildings expanded from the center (map of Paris, late 17th century, at that time the only standard for building cities).
The same Amsterdam that taught Peter everything.
(London (below), the year is indicated on the map … The capital, as the capital, not a single straight line).
Moscow could not get rid of the chaotic development.
And here is a map of Kiev - the mother of Russian cities.
And here is the map 1720, as they say "in fact."
Here are some more drawings, all genuine and kept in the museum. Just click on the link.
So to break Vasilievsky Island without surveyors … well, no way, so who to believe?
But the city in 1716, even before the general project, is this data from an engraving, or are they lying again?
This link is an awesome selection of city maps. Draw your own conclusions, and from me personally HUGE gratitude to the author for his work:
Here are two more very interesting maps, already dated 1703, I give links

They are more like not building projects, but reconstruction projects.
It should be noted that the preserved historical information about the founding of St. Petersburg is not unconditionally reliable. The Preobrazhensky marching journal says that on May 11, Peter went by dry road to Shlisselburg, on May 14 he was at the Syassk estuary, on May 16 he drove even further, and on May 17 he arrived at Lodeynaya pier. Thus, according to this diary, on May 16, Peter was not in St. Petersburg. Therefore, many take June 29, 1703 as the foundation day of the new capital, when the foundation stone of the church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul was completed. It is also noteworthy that in no modern documents the name of St. Petersburg is mentioned either in May or in June of that year; this area retained the name of Schlotburg. But on the maps of the early 18th century, the Peter and Paul Fortress is already standing, not an island, but a fortress, with clearly outlined borders. This is how it is today,just took off from googlemaps, the same six rays, but how much was it built according to history? And more … IE Kleinenberg discovered the news of Vasilievsky Island, lying at the mouth of the Neva, in a Livonian document of 1426, strange, isn't it?
It is written that the construction was completed in 1780, and in 1785 part of the walls was faced with granite, but on the maps of 1720 all the walls are there.
Plan of the Peter and Paul Fortress:
It clearly repeats all the other fortresses, as if they were executed according to the same scenario. An Italian Renaissance fortress in the shape of a star from the 1500s was taken as an example of a walled city.
Nyenskans:
Nyenskans - Russified from Nyenskans (Swedish Nyenskans, Finnish Nevanlinna, Russian Kantsy) - a Swedish fortress, which was the main fortification of the city of Nyen (Swedish Nyen) on Cape Okhtinsky on the bank of the Neva, at the mouth of the Okhta River on its left bank, next to modern Krasnogvardeyskaya square in St. Petersburg. The fortress was founded in 1611 on the lands torn away from Russia, on the site of the Russian trading settlement Nevsky Gorodok (Nevskoe Ustye) to control the Izhora land, called the Swedes Ingermanland, and control the waterway up the Neva. Literally translated as Nevsky (Nyen) trench (skans).
Here is a detailed map of the location of the star-shaped forts scattered throughout Europe.
All these fortresses are the remains of former forts and fortifications rebuilt according to the same type of plan, and in time immemorial.
How the text resembles the times of Alexander Nevsky, Ivan the Terrible …

Examples of falsification of history await us at every step. For example, a 19th century artist draws the story of Peter.
1799 year.
1756 year.
1738 year.
1725 year.
1705 year.
The fictional story is ready, now it all turns upside down and the countdown begins from the smallest date. It is said that it was so, so it WAS!
Here's another map for you, pay attention to the date 1698.
This is the official story ordered for textbooks, but these maps contradict other maps, such as Erik Nilsson Aspegreen's 1643 map.
In ancient Russian and Scandinavian written sources up to the Peace of Orekhovets in 1323, 42 settlements are noted in the Neva region, on the Baltic coast and in the Ladoga region. Of these, 32 are Novgorod settlements (in size and social scale from the capital city to the monastery village), 6 cities "in Chudi", 1 city in Latgallia, 1 city in the Livonian land, 1 German city. According to the Treaty of Orekhovets, the state border between the Novgorod Republic and Sweden moved to the river. Sister.
Based on historical data, we can say now that on the territory of the future Greater St. Petersburg during the XV - late XVII centuries. 900 - 1000 settlements were stable, united by hundreds of kilometers of roads. Many of these settlements became “buds” of the creation of St. Petersburg settlements, ensembles and building blocks. Even under Peter I, the borders of St. Petersburg included the territory of at least 55 villages of the pre-Petrine period, and the suburban zone united more than a hundred more previously existing villages, manors, villages and farms. Modern St. Petersburg and the territories under its administration cover more than 200 ancient settlements. Read more here: Peter the Great's Nests.
This area has always been quite densely populated, and the notes of the cartographer passing by should not be neglected, as well as this map of the early 17th century.
Here is another plan of the city with the Nieschanz fortress, dated 1643.
And now, the fortress Nieshants, founded in 1611.
The mouth of the Neva River, the city of Nyen with its surroundings, late 17th century.
According to Swedish historians, in 1691 there was a catastrophic flood on the Neva. The water rose to Nyen seven and a half meters above the ordinary. It was the highest of the recorded water heights during the entire existence of Nyen, a lot of structures of the coastal part went under water, and were subsequently abandoned.
Wonderful maps of the early 18th century, they were sent to me by a history lover under the pseudonym Otets Sergiy.
Pay your attention to how the card is signed.
This is still the first map of Peter, of those that came across to me, with the TARTAR settlement.
And here is the 1703 PETROPOLIS, interesting, right? They only gathered to build, but it has already been built.
Petropolis of 1744, what is the scale, what is the speed of construction, how many microdistricts, canals and communications.
Almost from the very moment the city was founded, a legend began to take shape about St. Petersburg as a ghost town, about its "unreality" and lack of connection with the history of the country. In 1845, in the article "Petersburg and Moscow" V. G. Belinsky wrote: "People are used to thinking of St. Petersburg as a city built not even on a swamp, but almost in the air."
The story of the removal of the capital of the Russian state practically outside the borders of the state itself seems very strange for that time. Even at the beginning of the 19th century, I'm not even talking about the 18th century, Petersburg was categorically isolated from Muscovy, there was not a single normal direct waterway (only the unsuccessfully made Vyshnevolotsk system, somehow working to descend to St. Petersburg). In those days, of course, there were no planes, no railways, no highways, only waterways along rivers, and short land sections - "drags" between river ways. And if there are no normal communication routes along which goods, troops, etc. can move, then there is no transport connectivity, without which there can be no statehood. Couriers with decrees can get there, but without the economic and power components these decrees are worthless. The country is hugeand the capital is in the middle of nowhere, doesn't it seem absurd to you? Until the 19th century, the main city controlling the transport hubs of the Moscow-Smolensk Upland at that time was the "key-city" Smolensk, located in the upper reaches of the Dnieper, where a chain of portages began, connecting the river routes "from the Varangians to the Greeks" and "from the Varangians to the Persians »At the intersection of trade routes from the Dnieper, Zapadno-Dvinsky, Volkhovsky, Volzhsky and Oka river basins. And only in the 19th century began a large-scale construction of direct waterways from St. Petersburg to the Volga: the Mariinsky, Tikhvin and the reconstruction of the Vyshnevolotsky water systems.where a chain of portages began, connecting the river routes "from the Varangians to the Greeks" and "from the Vikings to the Persians" at the intersection of trade routes from the Dnieper, Zapadno-Dvinsky, Volkhov, Volzhsky and Oka river basins.
