This is a story full of historical vicissitudes and international disputes, a legend about geography and strategy and the fate of the country. When I immersed myself in the retrospective of this time, I felt as if I had experienced it myself, feeling those turbulent times. The long river of history carries countless desires and contentions, and Istanbul is a precious pawn in this game. Let's travel back in time together and listen to the heartbeat of that ancient city.
Event Content:
In this complex world, Istanbul is like a shining pearl that attracts the attention of countless countries.
From the foundation of Constantinople, it became the key to maritime control, and the Ottoman occupation in 1453 breathed new life into the city. Russia, in the enclosed space of the Black Sea, aspires to have the only access to the Mediterranean. However, in this friction and contention in the history of Russia and Turkey, Istanbul has become an untouchable forbidden fruit.
The flames of the Russo-Turkish War witnessed the history of the fierce struggle between Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire for access to the sea. Despite Russia's aspirations for Istanbul, it has failed to live up to its expectations.
The rise and fall of the Black Sea Fleet seems to be a picture scroll of history, the establishment in 1785, the impact of the Crimean War, and then the changes and reconstruction of the 20th century, every node bears the mark of the times.
However, turning points of fate often come inadvertently. In 1992, the idea of a joint Russian-Ukrainian fleet was eye-catching, but in 2001 the separation of the Black Sea Fleet became a page in history. The events in the Crimea of 2014 had a profound impact on the Black Sea Fleet. This series of changes, outlining the differences between Russia and Ukraine and the fate of the Black Sea Fleet, makes people sigh for the twists and turns of history.

In this international wrestling, the response of members of the community to the incident is varied. Some people are worried about Russia's military challenge and worry that it will bring about geopolitical turmoil; some people have a deep understanding of Istanbul's geographical importance and believe that mastering the city is equivalent to holding the whole situation; and the rise and fall of the Black Sea Fleet has aroused widespread concern from all walks of life, some people regret its glorious history, and some people feel sad about the twists and turns of its fate.
Summary:
Istanbul, a city that carries historical memories, is not only a battle for geographical location, but also a confluence of national destinies.
Russia's desire for this land, starting with the founding of Constantinople, is like a long epic throughout history. However, in this thorny adventure, Russia failed to get its wish.
The Russo-Turkish War was an important chapter in this game, which witnessed the moment of fierce war between Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire for access to the sea. The Black Sea Fleet, on the other hand, has played an important role in history, from its founding in 1785 to the changes of the 20th century.
However, the cycle of fate is not eternal. The idea of a joint Russian-Ukrainian fleet in 1992 makes people look forward to the future of geopolitics.
However, the separation of the Black Sea Fleet in 2001 and the events in Crimea in 2014 made all this confusing. Differing views have emerged from all walks of life about this series of twists and turns, with Russia's military challenge, perceptions of Istanbul's geographical importance, and anxiety about the fate of the Black Sea Fleet all intertwined to form multiple dimensions of this history.
In this seemingly distant and close historical picture, we seem to be able to hear the melodious melody of the years. Istanbul is not only a meeting point of geography, but also a place where civilizations meet.
