What if in Japan a samurai had struck with a stronger sword? About that Russia that we lost (or didn’t find?). Although... I’m not sure that everything will be fine. It may turn out the other way around - everything will be even worse. In any case, I always try to write more or less objectively. Without the crunch of buns, but without the gloomy atmosphere of general flogging, snickering at the top and collapse, about which it has now become fashionable to write again. After all, there were smart people at that time. And the ideas that they tried to introduce were no worse than the October exercises of the Bolsheviks. But... the authorities listened to others, which was primarily the fault of Nicholas 2 and his entourage. Or not only them?
