That is very very true.
That whole dam area was in a constant battle between ethnic groups.
The little Snake fails to mention that even up to the 1600s the Crimea was part of a Khan rule.
The very area that is now disputed is most likely the old Khan Cossack area...as is the Crimea area.
I wish my wifes Granny was alive because the name Rus was most likely a name derived from a name from Finnish. She was a Scandi Fin, Gramps was a Slavic Fin. You can tell them apart by looking at them-the eyes. Psaki is a slavic fin..look at her eyes. As is Putin..slavic They got that Mongolian type eye structure.
And in the aftermath of WWI there were a lot of regional battles in the former Austro-Hungarian empire, because most of the borders were drawn up with little regard for the ethnic makeup of the countries, Yugoslavia being a perfect example. Even in Poland, there were millions of Ukrainians with the Polish borders who didn’t give a flip about serving Marshall Piłsudski, not to mention the “Volksdeutsche”.
