>"Invading Russia is impossible because winter lol!"

>Mongols invade what would later become Russia, conquer it with trivial ease
>Turks and their vassals invade Russia and literally burn down Moscow
>Poles invade Russia, crush the Russian army, take Moscow, and end up annexing a bunch of their territory in the peace treaty
>Germans invade Russia, destroy the Russian army, collapse the Russian government, and occupy significant parts of it with much of the Russian Empire's land being ceded in the peace treaty

When will this meme die? The Swedes, French, and Germans were defeated in battle (both in Russian and on other fronts). They didn't lose because Russia is just impervious to conquest.

>>2347745
Actually you are incorrect in multiple ways.
A good part of the russian states didn't even fight the Mongols but subdued to them, not only this but it wasn't impossible at the time with the type of warfare of the time, centred on battles and maneuvers; but it is factually extremely hard to conquer as of today because states can ammass such forces that wars are wars of position: stationary and exhausting fights to just gain a couple of kilometers. The Germans never had a chamce of beating RussiA, since it would have kept fighting even after losing Ztalingrad and Moscow, forcing Hitler to reach the AA line (in Siberia). it would be impossible to sustain such a massive amount of forces along such a long frontline and in terrible climate conditions. Germany tried her best woth Barbarossa, striking Russia unpreparadely, but in a normal scenario where both the contendents are ready and there is no surprise factor, Germany wouldn't have even reached Minsk.

Although you can find exceptions it will still hold the reputation it does regardless. Just like Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires.

It was a strange oversight, given how interested the Victorians generally were with all things Oriental. Some suspect it was an intentional slur, but that seems far-fetched. Just pure idiocy from beginning to end.

By what metric is one the 'greatest historian'. Gibbon certainly left an indelible mark on western civilian's entire conception of the Roman Empire in the way that Dante did to hell. His books are worth reading for their prose alone. But he belongs to a forgone class of historiography somewhat in the vein of Herodotus whose limits in the material & tools available meant that he could only relate the events as they were understood at the time that obviously doesn't reflect the intense scrutiny & attention to detail at the smallest level that most modern scholarship strives for.
