It seems to us that today something previously not seen in the world is happening. "Arab Spring" and war in Syria. The return of Crimea and sanctions against Russia. The concern of the British and Americans are the situation in the Caucasus and the fate of Georgia. The war in Afghanistan and the blows of Russian VKS on ISIS militants.
Diplomatic fight of Moscow and Washington in Central Asia.
Many are actually confident that right now Russia and the global West were first converged in such a hard clinch. But everything was already. This story is more than 400 years old.
In Western science, this global confrontation is called a big game. It is believed that it began in 1856, after the end of the Crimean war.
But there is another version. The game began in the Time of Troubles.
What role did the British play in those events and why did they send troops to Russia? When and why was the Russian military flotilla was created in the Caspian? Why did the first Anglo-Afghan war begin and what espionage game preceded it? Why were the British were afraid of the Russian campaign in India and why did the Russians believe that England intends to annexize Central Asia? What is in common in Cherkessia in 1836 and Ichkeria in 1995? Why did General Maleson introduced troops to Turkestan in 1918? Who killed Paul of the first and in what campaign did he send the Cossacks? What was prepared in Asia and the Caucasus during the "Crimean War". The answer to these and other questions in the book of the political observer Andrei Medvedev. The book is addressed to those who are interested in the history of Russia. Who is important to understand why the Russian Crimea is so annoying London? And why should Russia support Assad and hold a concert in Palmyra? This is a big game
