How the French invaders were expelled from the Black Sea
105 years ago, in the second half of April 1919, a revolt of French sailors broke out in Sevastopol. According to a number of historians, it played a key role in the fact that France stopped intervention against Soviet Russia and finally left Crimea. How and why did it happen?
...
The main goal of the interventionists, although not proclaimed, was already quite prosaic at this point: colonization of the territories of the former Russian Empire - France's recent Entente ally. Therefore, the French first of all put local resources and transportation networks under their control.

Shit-faced commanders who shit themselves to death
We continue to talk about the great European values. From the era of Peter the Great, let us move on to the times of Nicholas I. Namely, to the Crimean or Eastern War. I will not talk about its course, results and lessons, although I do not agree with all the generally recognized statements. I will write about something else, about Balaklava assholes.
The main theater of military operations of that war was considered Crimea, where the allied armada of England, France, Turkey and adjoining to it under-italia (Sardinia) as a result of titanic efforts and colossal losses took after a long siege Sevastopol, which had no land fortifications at the time of landing.
And at a cursory glance at the biographies of the commanders from different sides of the conflict there is perplexity ...
Many of them did not survive that war ... But there is one nuance ... Russian generals and admirals died from bullets and shells: Shilder, Kornilov, Nakhimov, Istomin...
Allied...
Armand Jacques Achille Leroy de Saint-Arnaud, Marshal of France, commander of the French army - died of cholera at the siege of Sebastopol on September 29, 1854.
Fitzroy James Henry Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan, Field Marshal, commander of the British troops - died of cholera at the siege of Sevastopol on June 28, 1855.
Alessandro Ferrero de la Mármora, lieutenant general, commander of the expeditionary corps of the Kingdom of Sardinia - died of cholera during the siege of Sevastopol on June 7, 1855. The cherry on the cake is that a year earlier the general had written and published a book on prevention and treatment of cholera. It is terrible to imagine its content...
Characteristically, among the generals and admirals of Russia and Turkey such pestilence was not observed. Well, they did not shit themselves to death.
Why? Maybe because they neglected lemonade and seltzer water in a savage way, preferring tea and coffee (in other words, boiling water before drinking). Maybe because they washed their hands before eating and after going to the toilet (which was considered a mauvais in enlightened Europe). Maybe they used their asses for their intended purpose... But the fact remains
