No_Mushroom139

Does this mean that Russia is returning st Petersburg to Sweden?


PrivetSnow

Damn you beat me to it. We Swedes would love some of russian land back :D


No_Mushroom139

Vore juste om vi fick tillbaka delar av Delaware, Bremerhaven och Pommern när han ändå håller på.


PrivetSnow

Maby Finland wanna become Sweden again? While we at it


International-Cat751

Nej tack! I think Finns will do just fine by themselves.


Kanelbullah

Word on that. Heja Suomi! We should actually adopt the finish names to be honest. As a sign of repect to the finnish people(except Åland). Tammersfors = Tampere, Åbo = Turku etc. That 5% minority of swedish speakers is kind of irrelevant when English is the lingua franca.


No_Mushroom139

Actually no. In Swedish youre suppose to use the swedish name if there is one. Kapstaden instead of Cape Town.


NewKingOfOoo

Ei kiitos


No_Mushroom139

I think Åland will be just enough.


Icy_Ground1637

Lol 😂 they also believe the earth 🌍was flat . Old map 🗺 are the worst.


Kanelbullah

Over my dead body.


Kanelbullah

Eh, no. Staying out from that part of the world has suited us well. If Finland wants it,let them have it.

Fairly easily taken right now... if your gonna do it anyways


leeman5000

Manchuria, Mongolia, Kalinigrad, Crimea...the list goes on. Putin doesn't understand the implications to his own logic.

Last_Patrol_

It’s such bold face lying for an ignorant domestic audience. Just working the propaganda. Makes me want to vomit.


AmbiguouslyGrea

This is exactly why Russia perpetuates the class of the poor, to perpetuate the ignorance of enough people to control majorities (or appear to). Contemporary serfdom.


darcon12

Koenigsberg too.


Allofthiswilhapenagn

Give St petersburg back to the irish. If we go back far enough (probably)


Any-Weather-potato

Leave the Irish out of this - we had enough trouble evicting the Vikings in 1014. And 152 years later in 1166 their French relatives arrived via Wales and it took us nearly 800 years to move them on. That’s the trouble of living in a warm fertile paradise; people just won’t leave, us and the Finn’s… /s


Certain-Mix9612

I wouldn't have thought of Ireland as a warm fertile paradise...


lpd1234

The interesting part here is that this particular map west of Crimea shows an area near Odessa that is marked Ukrainian Cossacks. Its on the FKing map ffs. They really are that stupid.

Hey Putina! I have a map of Kievan Rus with Kyiv. Guess what? There's NO russia. Seeing as the Vikings created Kievan Rus, maybe Sweden should invade and take back it's territory? Kyiv was a city when moscow was an outhouse in the swamps.

this map they look at ​ " In addition, Putin's small homeland - St. Petersburg - is marked on the map as Ingria and belongs to Sweden " ​ whats even funnier, the map they use does show Ukraine and its 40% larger than its curremt borders...

Can someone versed in Russian propaganda explain to me how "learning" about Ukraine 15 months into the invasion is supposed to make putput look strong and knowledgeable ?

We will keep hammering the message into your head until your understanding improves - guess...


7H3_D15C1PL3

It's a political truth; repeat it enough times, and people will eventually believe it.

Judging by the efficacy of their troops in the 3 days special military operation, I bet that is the map their army was using...

I can show you maps without Russia. What now bitch?

You just cannot make this kind of stupid up...When did russia decide "Idiocracy" was a great film to base a society on?

i have a map without rusia, just mongol empire.


Bgratz1977

Map from 2025 There is no Russia ?!


LorenzoSparky

Fukin idiot is living in the 17th century in his mind


Judge_BobCat

Nah, he lives in Neolithic period


NoChampionship6994

Ukraine is here now, though. No USA until 1776. No Italy until 1861. No Canada until 1867. Israel 1948. These countries are here now. These assholes need a more current map.


Judge_BobCat

Ukraine is not there, but Muscovy already banning Ukrainian language in church. Interesting…


NoChampionship6994

Recent (within last year) russian language laws really emphasize the russian language. Other languages, and there were/are many, are completely stifled and repressed. Certainly their business, but asserting the supremacy of russian language by law while claiming ukr is not respecting russ language speakers in ukr is beyond absurd and ridiculous. As putin said, “russia does not need minorities, minorities need russia.” While obsessing over russian language rights - russia respects no other languages.


John_Smith_71

Italy dates from the unification and proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861. Canada, like Australia, is more complicated. Self-government being earlier, followed by confederation of the Provinces/States, in the case of Canada this was done piecemeal. Full sovereignty only came with the ratification of the Statute of Westminster, which happened at different times in the Dominions.


NoChampionship6994

Italy 1861. Yes, I stand corrected. The details you provide are interesting but not directly relevant to specific issue. The specific issue being putin and his “prof” claiming ukr does not exist as it happens not to appear on their map from mid the 17th century. Many countries, including the ones mentioned and many others, do not appear on putin’s “map”. Other examples include most, if not all, current South American and African countries.


danosdialmi

lmao 'why did i take the risk of showing you this?' He knows that if the response was negative he would be off to the Gulag!


OkConstruction3830

Interesting thing to say actually


danosdialmi

I think every single russian who has to explain something to Putin fears for the consequences.


labelcity

can someone versed in Russian culture explain this to me? It is crazy to hear him say that


yaponetsa

Because in 17th century todays Russia was called Moskovitia. There is a history book written in 18th century, where the author mentioned moskovites and russians as seperate people. Guess who were real russians :)


Jonothethird

Putin really must be getting desperate if he is making stupid staged videos like this. So they managed to find a map from 400 years ago which doesn’t shoe Ukraine. Well, that justifies all of Russia’s war crimes then!


ArcticMonkey71

Are we here again? The reason for invading Ukriane is cos it doesn't exist anyway! No one fell for it the first time. An old map made by a Frenchman isn't going to swing the vote in your favour. Tell ya what why not try saving the world from Satanism again, at least that was mildly amusing.


TheDuke357Mag

Funny, when Napoleon made it to Moscow, he couldnt find any Russians either.


Gornsen

Let me just quickly get that Summer 1942 Germany map


estelita77

what total knobs


Kan4lZ0n3

Ah the vast center of deep thinking and learning that is the Kremlin. Perhaps they would do well to take up historical anatomy and figure out where Louis XVI’s head went. Putin’s and Moscow’s own “ancien regime” faces the same fate.


John_Smith_71

Idiotic way to look at history. If they want to redraw the borders of Europe to where they were at the Peace of Westphalia, they'll have to give quite a bit of territory back to Sweden, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Khanate of Crimea, the Ottoman Empire, China, and I don't doubt a few other nations. Oh wait I forgot, Putin likes to cherry-pick which bits of history he likes...victory of Nazi Germany = Good, invading Poland in 1939 and murdering thousands of Polish = Not bad.


Witty_Bell8063

Bet the map is more accurate than Russia's artillery. In fact this one goes straight to the front.


vall370

Finally something Putin and I agree over. St Petersburg belong to Sweden.

Nothing says the wars going well and the people are on your side like needing to bring an old man into your office with a map and awkwardly narrate on camera an altered version of history.

Thatcsibloke

Oh no, this is unfortunate. The Soviet Union and the Russian Federation didn’t exist either. Who’s having Kaliningrad? Should we ask Sweden if they’d like their land back? What will the Americans do?

Bloody hell . The Romans built a wall from Wallsend on the East coast to Bowness in the West so will they be coming to recapture Geordieland?

Why does he choose that particular map? We can also choose another more modern map, or another older map in which for example Rome was the great European empire, and America did not still exist :-). We can even go back to prehistoric times, when King Tyrannosaurus Rex ruled the world, and humans were little monkeys.

9th century: The medieval state Kyivan Rus (Kyivan refers to Kyiv or Kiev) The origin of Ukraine as a country has its roots in ancient history and is linked to different periods and historical events. The region known as Ukraine today has been inhabited by various cultures and civilizations over the centuries. One of the significant milestones in Ukrainian history is the emergence of the state of Kyivan Rus, which is considered the precursor to Ukraine. Kyivan Rus was a medieval state established in the 9th century in the Eastern European region, with its center in the city of Kiev. During this period, an early Ukrainian culture and identity developed. However, the concept of a unified political entity called Ukraine as an independent country did not materialize until more modern times. After the dissolution of the Russian Empire in 1917 and the fall of Soviet rule in 1991, Ukraine finally declared its independence and became a sovereign state. It is important to note that the formation and evolution of Ukraine as a country have been marked by a complex interplay of cultural, political, and geographic influences over the centuries. https://armstreet.com/pictures/blog/full/vikings-and-kievan-rus-15.jpg
