Informative and truly captivating

An enjoyable and informative listen presented in manageable bitesizes that kept my attention. Very necessary for a quick understanding of where Russia is coming from during these days of their war with Ukraine. I am particularly grateful for the section that covered Ivan The Terrible. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a short introduction to the history of Russia.
