VYACHESLAV, you bet Rossiyskuyu part of the forum in an awkward position,


I want to write that it is very funny. But certainly once narveshsya to repel Ukrainian patriots, and more in anegdote - "and here is a start ..."

Who is Ivan Sirko?

Look at 19.35 on RBC, as "patriots" start "to go" under the new prezidenta.Skoree not "patriots", and time-servers.

And the new president of Ukraine is not a patriot of Ukraine?

Konstantin I, too, albeit from Ukraine, but I do not know who Ivan Sirko and honestly, I do not want tired of this rewriting of history and when making such a big elephant, the heroes of the new dig up (I hope that soon it will end and new president will devote more attention to the economy, rather than bees, godfathers and sculpt museums and heroes at every turn).
VYACHESLAV I hope that the "fraternal" museum, too, would be removed from public finance.

Tana, not to show their nevezhetsvo in this matter, read "The history of Zaporizhzhya Cossacks" DI Yavornytsky.
And then realize that no is not the newfound hero.

know already from the fact that on every street corner began to talk about the eternal oppression, violations of the Ukraine, when it began to simply impose the Ukrainian language, edit history (well, just more Vasyuki made from the Ukraine), we immediately ceased to wonder, I know ukrainsky, even in childhood with his grandmother and in kindergarten at him talking, but that's not going to fundamentally not going to speak it, when imposed, all the same to me closer to the Russian language, Russian history, I was even difficult to imagine as it is now in the schools do not study the history of Peter I I even interesting now to study the history of Britain, France, and that's probably our Cossacks Yushchenko overdone, I have an allergy to them.
I prefer myself to choose what I like and interesting.
And the heroes in world history was not enough.

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Tana, and I was all historical figures shared history interesting.
And the characters are really Repin's famous painting (a native of Little Russia, by the way) is doubly interesting.

For all its history is the only leader the captain, who was elected 8 times in a row in the post.

In all, he was elected leader chieftain about 20 times ...

Here are excerpts from the book "A Sound of battle", Moscow, 2003.
"Kosh Ataman Ivan Sirko, who, while still a colonel, led to talk of the Cossacks throughout Europe, arriving with two and a half thousand sechevikov at the request of of Cardinal Mazarin to help France in its fight against Spain during the Thirty Years' War. Cossacks stormed the strongest Spanish seaside fortress Dunkirk, to which they unsuccessfully besieged by the French, and several other castles, beat the Spaniards, a number of battles in the open field, winning in-Chief of the French Army of the Great Conde, "the name the best infantry of the world. When the bulk of the Cossacks returned to the camp, thousands of Cossacks led by Circo at the personal request of the Prince de Conde remained in France for another two years with the royal musketeers fought. "

Below are just a plot paintings by Ilya Repin:
"However, Sirko could not only surprising feats sechevikov Europe, standing up with a few of their elders holders of the higher orders of France, but also amuse them. Once when he was already elected leader chieftain on the night before Christmas in 1678 Zaporozhye attacked Crimean Tatars and 15 thousand Janissaries, Cossacks, not only repulsed them, but also inflicted heavy losses. With the start of ice drift secheviki lowered enemy corpses down the Dnieper "visit to the Khan and the Sultan", followed by Sirko received a letter from the sultan the threat of retaliation Cossacks. In response Sirko dictated and sent to Istanbul this response, that over several months the Sultan laughed at all the royal houses of Europe. "

The mention of D'Artagnan:
"... and on the amorous adventures of Ivan Sirkka with his friend, Lieutenant of the Royal Musketeers 34-year old Charles Liu Bas de Fezenzakom Sieur de Kastelmorom, whose close friends called titular mother Count d'Artagnan, at the time legendary throughout France. "

And at the expense of the museum - this is bullshit!!
Petro Yushchenko and especially not so poor people ... so if you want to let him out of his pocket a sponsor, rather than continue to milk the country!
This does not mean that I am against such initiatives, but there are 1,000 museums in Ukraine in a deplorable condition. And before you create new, we must preserve what we have!
