I recently came across a short documentary on Ukraine’s history between WWI and WWII by Kings and Generals. You might find many parallels with today. It has some oversimplifications, although a more nuanced video would take hundreds of hours. Highly recommended www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTMf... - ThreadSky

Kings and Generals is a wonderful channel, and they've done a lot to educate people on Ukrainian history. I think they strike a really good balance between providing context and watchability.

Absolutely- great channel. Love their Ukraine recaps on the frontline and aid packages.

Agree, they are very solid. At times, it's frustrating this or thay denial wasn't covered: but they definitely strike the right balance for the watch time / format

Sounds interesting. I'll watch the documentary. Thanks for the recommendation

If you haven’t watched it, Yale Professor @timothysnyder.bsky.social ‘s course on The Making of Modern Ukraine is a fantastic source for a deeper understanding of the country’s history. It’s all on YouTube. Link to 1st lesson: https://youtu.be/bJczLlwp-d8?si=64wyfiMDnWHfXT9E

Also an excellent documentary about Holodomor :”Moissons sanglantes by Guillaume Ribot and Antoine Germa

This is amazing because it’s a Truth that needs to be told as to the continual Evil that Russia has been Practicing.

Thanks for suggesting it. Personally I have trust issues with this channel when it comes to CEE history.
There were strange omissions and inaccuracies regarding certain events, especially when Russia was the perpetrator.

Personally, I learned about the Holodomor by reading Bloodlands by @timothysnyder.bsky.social . It’s one of those books that leaves an indelible mark on your mind.

Red Famine: Stalin’s War on Ukraine also covers the Holodomor in great detail.
