What do wristwatches, voting rights, and the destruction of four empires have in common? Georgy Filatov's lecture is an opportunity to look back at the beginning of the 20th century, when the world was divided in two. Everyone was preparing for World War I, but no one was ready for what it would bring. The world plunged into flames, emerging changed: there were no longer four empires on the map, ideologies required a new shell, and humanity entered an age of anxieties and changes. Candidate of historical sciences Georgy Filatov will help understand why today we increasingly talk not about two world wars, but about one - with a twenty-year truce. Who started the conflict? What was Russia's role? And is it true that the outcomes of the war included not only losses and borders but also the emergence of wristwatches, universal suffrage, and the phenomenon of the "lost generation"? This is a conversation about causes and consequences, about the logic of historical processes and human tragedy, about myths and facts that still influence our perception of the world. Generals, politicians, ordinary people - all became part of this terrifying mosaic, which historians are still piecing together. Where to go in Moscow today, KudaGo knows.
