As Russia's war with Ukraine continues, it is now coming to light that Russia has disproportionately targeted Siberians for conscription in the Russian Army under Vladimir Putin's leadership. But this is just the latest in a long line of troubling
episodes of Russia's dark history with Siberia.
In this documentary on the history of the Russian Empire and the Russian Federation, we'll explore how - and why - Russia conquered the vast wilderness of Siberia, how it made their leaders unfathomably rich, and how it forever changed the lives of the
Siberian people.
