The Romanovs' Forgotten Architects
While history fixates on the tragic end of the dynasty, this episode explores how the Romanovs built an empire through stone and steel. We examine the controversial role of Sergei Witte in industrializing Russia, the architectural ambition of Alexander Gornostayev, and the brutal reality behind the Trans-Siberian Railway's expansion into Siberia. From the golden yoke of taxation to the cold iron of the Okhrana, we look at the machinery of control that held the Russian Empire together until it shattered.
