Chapter 14 Part 2

Experiencing the Russian Empire
With Russia being so powerful and more weaponized than the other countries, took over the steppes and Siberia. I think it was pretty ridiculous that after Russia took over the country, they demanded an oath of allegiance by the native people. What person would be so sincere to a commander that just took away their freedom? And not only did they take away their freedom but they also weren't allowed to speak their own language and had to pay the people that took away their freedom in fur. A loss of a whole culture right there. WOW! However, whoever ruled the Russian Empire expaansion had to of been really smart. Not only do they own people but those people paid them and do work for them also. Talk about a bargain.
