"вся суть российской истории – в сельском хозяйстве....

"The whole essence of Russian history is in agriculture. In our latitudes it is ineffective. Therefore, a dense network of cities has not formed here, as in Europe, except for a few in the north. Such cities could become centers of trade and legal culture. And the peasants who inhabited Russia at the time of its creation, they were not a source of serious profit for the Russian authorities.The authorities were not interested in establishing an order based on respect for property, but devoted themselves to the pursuit of valuable natural resources - honey, hemp, tar. Over time, the Russians conquered the black earth. But already power arbitrariness and tyranny were the basis of interaction. I think that another Russian state could not survive. The uniqueness is that no other state could survive on the border of the Turks and Mongols. The Russian state in Kiev fell, the Galicia-Volyn state - too. All Russian states fell, except for northern Russia. And why did it survive on the border of the Turks and Mongols? Because here you juicy snow and cattle could not cuddle, that is, tear the snow with their hooves in search of food. Consequently, the nomads could not come here. They even came to collect tribute along the frozen rivers in winter. Good luck, because they didn't know if they would find hay for the horses here. There might not be enough hay, hunger would begin, and horses would have to be eaten. In view of the climatic danger of Russia, the Tatars and in general the Turks left the right to collect tribute to the Russian princes. Russian princes became a kind of colonial administration. If not for this climate and the gigantic Atlantic snow, nomads would have entered here.

This terrible climate both saved Russia and at the same time shaped Russia as a country where the townspeople are not needed, and the peasants are always a burden that is not of economic interest to the authorities. But nevertheless, such a structure of life that we see now is our responsibility. I don’t want to assume that the people are deprived of will and consciousness.
