Question: why did this one take so long for you to upload?

I am deeply fascinated by this period of time in Russian history, and love listening to the myths, legends and ideas on who Rasputin was and why he became a iconic figure at the time. One story about him that I often recall when thinking about his early life was that he was a drunk petty thief that was exiled from his home town by his father (whom was the "chief"/ Head honcho of the small village/ town) and the only way he would be allowed back into his hometown, would be if he went on this big pilgrimage. I just think of a drunk Rasputin angrily starting out this pilgrimage. considering his life was one big smoke screen of secrecy and mystery. I am always amazed at how much people know about Rasputin. any way , loved the video. you guys where the reason I fell back in love with history. so many thanks.

Judging by a couple of the replies to your video on Twitter, it sounds as though you should clarify that bit about Hermogenes in "Lies." Granted, you did use the qualifier "reportedly," but I do think it's worth touching on nonetheless.

These are some newer and some older segments I've finally had an excuse to 'polish up' thanks to this series. I've also been using a PC game called Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron Game as inspiration. 1869 21st January In the Russian Empire, a Son, Grigori, is Born in the Siberian Village of Pokrovskoye, Tyumen , to Peasant Farmer and Elder Yefim Rasputin and his Wife, Anna Parshukova. He is Named after Saint Gregory of Nyssa, whose Feast Day is on 10th January. 1870 22nd April In the Russian Empire, a Son, Vladimir, is Born to Teacher Ilya Ulyanov and his Wife, Maria, in the City of Simbirsk, Simbirsk Governorate. 1886 In the Russian Empire, Grigori Rasputin Travels to Abalak, some 250km East ~ Northeast of Tyumen and 2,800km East of Moscow. There, he Meets a Peasant Girl Named Praskovya Dubrovina. 12th January In the Russian Empire, Teacher Ilya Ulyanov Passes away at the Age of 54 from a Sudden Brain Hemorrhage in the City of Simbirsk, Simbirsk Governorate. He will be Remembered by Future Historians only as the Father of Vladimir Lenin. In the Russian Empire, after his Father’s Death, Vladimir’s Behaviour becomes Increasingly Erratic and he Renounces his Belief in God. Around this Time, Vladimir’s older Brother, Aleksandr, who the Family Call “Sasha,” is Studying in Saint Petersburg University. 1887 In the Russian Empire, Grigori Rasputin Marries Praskovya Dubrovina after a Courtship of Several Months. She will Remain in Pokrovskoye throughout Rasputin’s later Travels and will Remain Devoted to him until his . 20th May In the Russian Empire, Russian Revolutionary Aleksandr Ulyanov is Executed by Hanging at the Age of 21 in the Town of Shlisselburg, Saint Petersburg Governorate. He will be Remembered among Future Historians for having been the Leader of a Cell of the Revolutionary Organisation Narodnaya Volya and for having been the Elder Brother of Vladimir Lenin, his Execution having Driven Vladimir to Pursue the Revolutionary Struggle ever more Fervently. In the Russian Empire, Vladimir Ulyanov, upon Entering Kazan University, Moves into a nearby Flat. There, he Joins a Zemlyachestvo, a Form of University Society which Represents the Men of a Particular Region. This Group Elects him to be their Representative to the University’s Zemlyachestvo Council. 1897 In the Russian Empire, Grigori Rasputin Develops a Renewed Interest in Religion and leaves Pokrovskoye to go on a Pilgrimage. His Reasons for doing so will be Unclear: Rasputin will Claim he had a Vision of an Icon of the Virgin Mary Weeping while Heresay from his Enemies will Claim he left the Village to Escape Punishment for his Role in a Horse Theft. Whatever his Reasons, Rasputin Casts off his old Life: he is 28 Years old, Married 10 Years with an Infant Son and another Child on the way. Rasputin has undertaken shorter, smaller Pilgrimages before to the Holy Znamensky Monastery at Abalak and Tobolsk’s Cathedral, but his Visit to the St. Nicholas Monastery in Verkhoturye Transforms him. There, he Meets and is “Profoundly Humbled” by a Starets [Elder] Known as Makary. He spends Several Months at Verkhoturye, where he Learns to Read and Write, however he Declines to stay in the Monastery since Monastic Life would have Meant giving others Authority over him and Rasputin has always been Wary of that. In the Russian Empire, Grigori Rasputin Returns to Pokrovskoye a changed Man, looking Dishevelled and Behaving differently. He becomes a Vegetarian, Swears off Alcohol, and Prays and Sings much more Fervently than he had done in the Past. He spends the next few Years as a Strannik [a Wanderer or a Pilgrim] leaving Pokrovskoye for Months or even Years at a Time to Wander the and Visit a Variety of Sites. 1900 In the Empire, Grigori Rasputin Claims to have Walked as far as Mount Athos in Greece ~ the very Heart of Eastern Orthodox Monastic Life ~ around this Time. 1904 10th February In the Russian Empire, upon Learning of the Outbreak of War, the Doukhobors ~ Knowing that Conscription has been Extended to Transcaucasia and Unwilling to take up Arms against the Japanese or anyone else ~ Collect their Weapons and Ceremonially Burn them, amidst much Singing of Hymns and Psalms. 12th February In the Russian Empire, Cossacks sent from Tiflis come to the Dukhobor Villages, Burn them to the Ground and then Arrest most of the Men. The Entire Dukhobor Population is then Dispersed across Siberia and Eastern Russia.
