People around the world take names slightly differently
People around the world take names slightly differently. In the Chinese cultural circle, the "surname" is placed in the front, the surname is followed by the "name", and there is also a "word" that is a bit cultural and exquisite; for example, the national hero Yue Fei, that is, the surname "Yue" name "Fei" character "Pengju".
In the Chinese cultural circle, little Japan is a different kind, they did not have the "surname" before, because the "surname" comes from the patrilineal line, the small book was "married" in the early days, who is this child, I don't understand it, so only the noble families have a "surname";
For example: Hara, Hira, Fuji, etc., there are more branches, and then add a word to distinguish; ordinary people will randomly get a surname, such as: Tanaka, Inoue, Watanabe, Yamaguchi and the like, some say that the home is in such a place, some say that the child is conceived in this place, there is no consensus.
Westerners generally take names in the first place and last name after. And this name has "religious name", "real name", and surname is divided into "patrilineal surname" and "matrilineal surname", which is very complicated and makes the name very long; especially in Arab countries, the names of the above generations are stuffed in, and I think that this name is not short.
Russia's three "Vladimirs"
Russian names are generally divided into three sections, the first of which is his own name, the middle is his father's name, and the last is "surname". At the beginning, Russians did not have the concept of "surname", or in the time of Peter the Great, it was found that Westerners had "surnames" in their dealings with the West, so Russia also got a "surname" behind.
For example, Putin, the full name is: Vladimir Vladiminovich Putin (Russian: Владимир Владимрович Путин). His original name was "Vladimir", his father's name was "Vladiminovich", and his surname was "Putin".
Russian names have many suffixes such as "Norwich", "Ski", etc., "Norwich" means "son of XX", such as: Petrovich, which means "son of old Peter";
"Ski" is a suffix that the nobles liked to show their identity in the past, and they were very angry, but after the October Revolution, it was not very useful, because the nobility was disliked, and the common people scolded when they saw "Ski", so "Ski" gradually became unpopular.
The name "Vladimir" is used by many people in Russia, and even Russia's new strategic nuclear submarine, which is now very powerful, is also named "Grand Duke Vladimir" because the name is very good.
The Russian language of Vladimir is: Владимир, "Влади" means "to rule", "to control", "мир" means "world" in Russian; what it means to be linked together is known.
The problem is that Russians like to give their children a name like this no matter what they do, so they fill the streets with "Vladimir."
It can be said that the history of Russia has developed to the present, which is strung together by three "Vladimirs". These three "Vladimirs" are the "Vladimir I", "Lenin" and "Putin" of the Rurik dynasty.
Vladimir I, the "Grand Duke of Vladimir" in their historical records, was the one who forcibly promoted the "Orthodox Church" in Russia and laid the foundation for Russia's "state religion", and to this day, Russia is still a unique "Orthodox" country;
"Lenin" is the founder of the Soviet Union, everyone is very familiar with it, it is unscientific and inaccurate to talk about Russia without the Soviet Union, this is an important and brilliant era in Russian history;
"Putin" is the president of Russia, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia inherited everything in the Soviet Union, and Yeltsin had no way to face Russia in a chicken feather;
Yeltsin had the ability to break up the Soviet Union, but he did not have the ability to put Russia up, and in his hands, Russia suffered the humiliation of the Western countries; but he had the ability to know people, he chose Putin, and it was Putin that made Russia develop to where it is today.
"Grand Duke Vladimir" is the founder of Russia's "state religion" and "characterizes" the country
The name of The Grand Duke of Vladimir was "Vladimir Sviatoslavich", there was no "surname" in his name, and he was born around 955 AD.
His father's name was Sviatoslavich, his grandfather was Igor, both grand dukes of the early Kievan Rus', and his grandfather was "Rurik the Vikings", the founder of the Rurik dynasty in Russia.
Grand Duke Vladimir had a very bitter life, his grandfather Grand Duke Igor was torn apart by the Tatars, and his father, Grand Duke Sviatoslavich, was cut off by the Pechenegs of the Turkic tribes and made into a wine vessel.
Vladimir was the product of the union between Grand Duke Sviatoslav and the housekeeper Marusha, and according to the rules of the European royal family, he was an illegitimate child with no rights.
Fortunately, his father, Sviatoslav, was almost always out fighting, and he grew up either with his able uncle Dobronia or with his particularly powerful grandmother Olga.
Olga is no ordinary person, she is Igor's wife, after Igor was torn apart by the Tatar tree, she designed to burn the Tatars, became the Grand Duke of Kievan Rus, and was named a "female saint" by the Russians.
In 972, Sviatoslav was killed by the Pechenegs, and Kievan Rus was succeeded by his three sons, each in charge of a territory, but in 977 AD, the three brothers fought each other, and the result was that the eldest Yaropolk won, killing his younger brother Derevlian and driving out his second brother Vladimir.
Vladimir was not an easy man, and soon he was entangled in his own strength, returned to his territory, drove out his brother Yaropolk's agents and troops, and incidentally attacked the nearby city of Polotsk controlled by the Normans (known as the Varyags in Russian history), making Polotsk his own.
The actual attack on Polotsk was a temporary act of Vladimir, and he heard that Rognida, the daughter of the Norman prince of Polotsk, Rogwald, was very beautiful, so he sent someone to propose marriage, where to know that the Normans looked down on him and scolded him. Furious, Vladimir immediately attacked Polotsk, cut off Rogvoyorod's head, and raped Rogneda.
After Rognyida was raped by Vladimir, he gave birth to a son named Ijaslav Vladimir, who was appointed Prince of Polotsk.
Later, the Mongols attacked Polotsk and informed Kievan Rus' that we had no idea about Russia, but only attacked Polotsk. But Russia had to support him, he was a member of the Russian family, but they were defeated, so Russia was ruled by the Mongols for more than two hundred years.
In 979 AD, Vladimir defeated his brother Yaropolk and cut off his brother's head outside the city, and when he entered the city, he found that his sister-in-law was beautiful, immediately took it for himself, and ordered her to marry himself. In this way, after Sviatoslav was killed by the Pechenegs, Russia was united by Vladimir after eight years of division.
After Vladimir unified Russia, his favorite things were two things: to attack everywhere and expand the scope of Russia; to rob the women he looked up to and give birth to himself.
He defeated King Mieszko I of Poland, defeated the Vyatzic, conquered the Yatwajs in Lithuania, conquered the Rakimićs, and conquered the Bulgarians;
Vladimir married almost 800 wives and concubines and had an unknown number of children; fortunately, in many places he conquered, his children became princes everywhere, which also created a situation in which the bones of the small kingdoms of Russia were broken and connected.
He married his sister Anna caesar, a Greek nun of the Byzantine dynasty, a wife of a Bulgarian nobleman, a gypsy beauty seen on the street, a German princess, and a sister-in-law he had stolen...
Vladimir was greatly influenced by his grandmother Olga, a decisive man, and it was a shocking thing that she joined Christianity despite the opposition of others.
Vladimir had a special admiration for his grandmother, and although the anti-Christian atmosphere in the principality was still very strong, he said directly: My extraordinary grandmother must have joined, it must be justified.
In fact, on the one hand, Vladimir had an understanding of the power of religion in rule, and the cost of successive conquests and the maintenance of rule by force was very high, and the help of religious forces was needed;
Vladimir, on the other hand, had his own ideas about Byzantium, which had been integrated with dynastic rule since the establishment of the Rurik dynasty, and Byzantine Christianity would have had a very great influence.
In order to promote Christianity in Russia, he sent people to investigate different religions everywhere, and those who returned reported to him were also interesting: Judaism is the faith of some marginalized people, they are a weak and failed religion;
The people of Islam live very hard, they are not allowed to drink alcohol and eat meat, where is the life of people; only the ornate pomp and circumstance of the Christian church is simply a paradise on earth, but the Christian Western church, whether it is a church building or a religious ceremony, is not as magnificent as the Eastern church.
Vladimir therefore chose the Orthodox Church, hoping to ally with the Byzantine Empire and marry Anna, the sister of the Byzantine Emperor Basil II.
The Byzantine Basil II, who despised the barbarian Russians, rejected Vladimir; Vladimir sent troops to capture the Byzantine city of Kherson in Crimea.
Under strong pressure, Emperor Basil II had no choice but to agree to Vladimir's request and marry his sister Anna to Vladimir;
Vladimir was also very particular, baptized immediately, converted to Christianity, took the name "Vasily" (this is the Slavic pronunciation of Basil), and returned the occupied Kherson to Basil II as a dowry.
After successfully solving the religious problem, the country was much more stable than before, and Vladimir began to fight in the east, and every time he conquered a place, he left one of his sons to guard the town, and married the daughter of a local prince. After the death of his wife Anna, he married a German princess, opening a chapter in the marriage between the royal family and Germany.
In the minds of Russians, Vladimir is simply a "god" like existence, and many Russians call him "the sun"; he opened the golden age of ancient Kievan Rus'; he beats whoever he wants, and he marries whomever he wants; he is still so religious and accepts Christianity; and he is so compelling that our Eastern Christianity is more atmospheric and brilliant than that of the West.
Lenin spent his life running for the "Soviet Union."
Lenin's full name was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, his real name was "Vladimir", and his father's name was "Ilyich", surnamed "Ulyanov", which was a noble surname, and had previously been followed by the suffix "Ski" or something, such as the aircraft carrier "Ulyanovsky". "Lenin" is a pseudonym, not a real name.
Lenin was born on April 22, 1870 in Ulyanovsk, on the Volga River, the son of a commoner intellectual, and his mother a cheerful housewife who loved literature and art. Influenced by his brother Alexander, Lenin came into contact with Marxism very early, studied Marx's Capital, wrote a large number of progressive articles, and widely propagated progressive ideas.
In February 1897, Lenin was exiled to Eastern Siberia, during which time he continued to study and write, using the pseudonym "Lenin"; after the exile, Lenin traveled all over Western Europe, leading the Russian Revolution, and was repeatedly arrested and wanted by the Tsarist regime. In fact, Lenin lived mostly in German-controlled places, and he would be arrested at any time if Germany wanted to.
In 1917, when the February Revolution broke out in Russia and the Romanov dynasty in Russia was completely overthrown, two governments appeared in Russia: a Provisional Government of Russia and a Soviet in Petrograd. At this time, Lenin was in Switzerland, and he hoped to return home, and Germany also assisted Lenin to return home with a special "sealed train".
After Lenin's return, on November 7, 1917, he launched the October Revolution, overthrowing the Provisional Government of Russia, establishing the People's Committee, and establishing a socialist democratic government, that is, "all power shall be vested in the Soviets."
On the 8th of the same month, Lenin was elected Chairman of the People's Council, promulgated the Decree of Peace and the Decree of AgrarianIsm, withdrew from the First World War, and established the "Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic", referred to as "Soviet Russia", also known as the "Soviet Union".
On August 30, 1918, Lenin was assassinated and wounded at the Mikherson factory on the outskirts of the capital Moscow, and in the following years Lenin worked selflessly to lay a solid theoretical and organizational foundation for the newly established Soviet Union; on January 21, 1924, Comrade Lenin died at the age of 53.
From the establishment of the Soviet Union in 1922 to the dissolution of 1991, less than a hundred years, it was only a moment in history; but it wrote a strong mark in the history of human development.
I don't think we have to follow the crowd, as if the Western world is just how good it is, in fact today the voice of human beings is fully grasped by the Anglo-Saxons, which is a huge "sin" in itself.
"Putin" this "Vladimir"
Needless to say, Putin has written a number of questions and answers about him. For example, "How good is Putin?" For Russia, Putin can afford the evaluation of "turning the tide of the tide and helping the summer will fall".
His "loyalty" to Russia was the first reason for his success. His full name is "Vladimir Vladimir Vladimir Putin", which means Vladimir Jr., the son of the elder Vladimir.
Everyone knows that Putin, who is committed to reviving Russia's superpower status, has said: Give me twenty years and give you a strong Russia. Putin is tough on domestic and foreign policies and is considered an "iron-fisted president," but he is also recognized as "the most influential person in the world." The Russian nation, on the other hand, has always been a subservient nation to the strong, and they have had a strong sense of external expansion from the beginning.
It is undeniable that Russia has changed after Putin became president. During the Yeltsin period, it was simply bullied by the Western countries to nothing, and the state property became the object of the division of Western capital; Russia's own oligarchs were also sandwiched in it, and one by one they became rich and invincible;
And the Russian people are simply miserable, the university professors are hungry and screaming, the arms are sold in the army, the women have become the tools of the shameless people in the West, and in the cold winter, there are always a large number of people who are frozen to death because they do not have heat...
At present, Russia still has many structural problems, but at least it dares to be tough on the United States and NATO, and it can be combined in Europe. That is to say, after the pain, they have regained their military capabilities and can draw a red line for their own interests. There are not many countries in this world that are qualified to draw red lines.
In short, the history of Russia is strung together by three "Vladimirs", and as for what kind of "Vladimir" there will be in the future, I do not know.
