What does Jow Forums know about the Crimean War?

>Russia
>European

I recall reading that the french were well organized, striding off their landing craft gaily in their fancy bright red and blue uniforms with the utmost precision. The British were a shambling mess in formation, logistics, and appearance. lastly the Russian commanders were all drunks and incompetents, and their army was hopelessly ill prepared and out of date.

Either an ironic self aware mutt or genuinely retarded
The British had the only professional standing army
The idea of a Russian officer being drunk is some 6 year olds fantasy(that being said an exception for ww2 should be made)
And France troops were a farmers militia

>lastly the Russian commanders were all drunks and incompetents, and their army was hopelessly ill prepared and out of date
AFAIK they still had mostly smoothbore muskets while the British and French had rifles.

Russian army was by far the most competent in Europe for that time

the demonym for the people of France is French, or really, the adjective pertaining to the qualities of France and its culture directly

The fuckup was on logistic, not command or soldier side*

Fat trolling or idiocy

>no Turk flags ITT
Are they banned again or something?

A meme war.

Wouldn't surprise me, with the amount of spam that came from their IP's, and possibly even government controls on the internet in their country, remember, they have that near dictator now.

Can you at least recognnize that we did all the heavy liftings and battles, and that the *Nglo was merely parasiting our sucess and convinced everyone that they won this war alone

Using big words won’t make you look any less a moron

The only war where the Anglos were the good guys.

miss, you've got me curious where you're from originally

Want another trianon you cunt?

charge of the light brigade (best day of my life)
most of the casualties were due to disease
basically a dick waving contest about muh christians in the holy land
there was some action in the baltic/northern sea but nothing really happened

CANNONS, TO THE LEFT OF THEM. CANNONS, TO THE RIGHT OF THEM. VOLLEYED AND THUNDERED

If you are so competent why did you allow the Brits and the French to land at Sevastopol? Maybe because the Russians were slow and stupid?

r*Ssians were BTFO

This was the first war to be extensively photographed and given on-the-scene reporting by the press.

Happened two times already. Eternity won't last forever!

Because fighting anglo french fleet on water would be straight suicide you fucking paprika mongol?

Russians weren’t even considering human by there own government(serfs/slaves)
How the fuck would they have a good miltary
America

>there was some action in the baltic/northern sea but nothing really happened
At Kamchatka as well. Many British casualities

If you let cap and ball man die hungry will be tri-nuked

I don't believe you, because then you'd at least know how to write ideas in your own language.

So why did they kick out Menshikov?

People think it was a minor conflict but it produced 500,000 casualties which was about 84% of the casualties sustained in the Civil War a few years later and that was fought in a much more huge geographical area while most of the fighting in Crimea happened with the siege of Sevastopol.

God speed Magyar man

>How the fuck would they have a good miltary
They chased Napoleon's troops out of the country 40 years before.

BISTRO was not a French word originally.

>cap and ball man

>Menshikov

>They chased Napoleon's troops out of the country 40 years before.

Aлeкcáндp Cepгéeвич Méншикoв

He lived 100 before this Crimean war.
Even before Crimea became Russian.

Because he did many things wrong

>Actually the weather did that.
Care to explain.
>pro tip: you cunt

>amerifat educationo

>Prince Alexander Sergeyevich Menshikov (Russian: Aлeкcáндp Cepгéeвич Méншикoв; 26 August 1787 – 2 May 1869) was a Finno-Russian nobleman, military commander and statesman. He was made adjutant general in 1817 and admiral in 1833.

>In 1853, Menshikov was sent on a special mission to Istanbul,[3] and when the Crimean War broke out he was appointed commander-in-chief on land and sea. He commanded the Russian army at Alma and Inkerman[1] and showed incompetence and lack of military talent. On 15 February 1855 Menshikov was removed from command and replaced by Prince Mikhail Dmitrievich Gorchakov. Between December 1855 and April 1856, he held the post of Governor General of Kronstadt and then retired. He died in St. Petersburg.

I am sorry, but Alexander Sergeyevich Menshikov is not Aleksander Danilovich Menshikov.

>>Menshikov
>Literally who? Wrong epoche.
You're thinking of the wrong Menshikov. He means this Finnish Bull

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Sergeyevich_Menshikov

Never heared about him. Sorry. That another Menshikov is well-known friend of Peter I

But Leo Tolstoi was indeed participating.

Basically the starting of our ''unification''. So, a bad thing

Crimea was Russian that time.
