The other poster had posted the first few words of Eisenstein's "Arise Russian People" from "Alexander Nevsky" but he had the "Russian people" part of the thing in genitive case and it needed to be in nominative case, which is what my suggestion was about.

The submarine here is named "Alexander Nevky" after the Russian prince who fought the Teutonic nights on the frozen lake in the mid 1200s (most of the Germans in their heavy armor fell through the ice and drowned).

Eisenstein's classic film is based on that story.

No problem. Translating to English is a guideline on the Religion Forum.

Just consider what kind of “leadership” we have chosen to lead us in the last 50 years.

Elections have consequences.

I think more and more folks are getting it but the ‘50s and ‘60s still exert a powerful hold on many.
