Unfortunately, some are considered, well, undesirable.|[[Henry Walton Jones, Senior|Henry Jones, Sr.]]|Travels with Father}} '''Russia''' or the '''Russian Empire''' was a large country covering the easternmost part of Europe and the northern part of Asia. Focused primarily in the west, it was ruled by emperors called czars from its founding as the expansion of the tsardom of Moscow until Russian Revolution of [[1917]], when the government was deposed and eventually was replaced by the communist leaders of the [[Soviet Union]] (which dissolved near the end of the twentieth century, with the main Russian component forming the [[Russian Federation]]. During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the capital of Imperial Russia was [[Saint Petersburg]] (renamed Petrograd during the Russian Revolution, then Leningrad under the Soviet Union). Covered vast plains in the west, Russia was strongly agricultural, with many inhabitants engaged as peasant farmers. Industrialization in the late nineteenth century started to create political upheaval in the early twentieth century. Prior to [[World War I]], the Russian Empire became allies of [[Serbia]], [[France]] and the [[United Kingdom]]. When [[Austria]] declared war on Serbia, Russia immediately sided with its smaller ally, and then also pulled the French and British into the war against the Germans and Austrians. However, the war caused major economic hardship and the royal leaders of Russia were forced to abdicate and were later executed in [[1918]], and in the midst of the World War, a civil war was fought for control of Russia between Bolshevik (Communist) forces and anti-Bolshevik forces. ==Adventures in Russia== [[Indiana Jones]] made several visits to Russia during his adventures. In [[1909]], Jones traveled to Russia with his family as part of his [[Henry Walton Jones, Senior|father]]'s [[World lecture tour|world lecture tour]]. After causing a disturbance at a wedding at the [[Akhmatov estate]], young Jones ran away from his parents, and met a fellow runaway, [[Leo Tolstoy]]. Together they ventured through rural Russia, meeting peasants, [[Gypsies]], and running from [[Cossacks]]. After a few dangerous days of life on the road, they decided to return home, and Jones was reunited with his worried parents and [[Helen Semour|Miss Seymour]]. The four traveled by train to [[Odessa]], where they caught a boat to [[Greece]], via [[Constantinople]]. On the journey, Miss Seymour's health declined and she was forced to recover in [[Athens]].<ref>{{YIJC|Young Indiana Jones: Travels with Father}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Travels with Father]]''</ref> In [[1913]], Jones traveled to [[Saint Petersburg]] and [[Baku]] with a new friend, a Russian with royal blood, while they evaded revolutionary plots.<ref>''[[Young Indiana Jones and the Princess of Peril]]''</ref> In [[1917]], Jones, now a member of French intelligence, was sent on a mission to Petrograd. He made friends with some of the locals, and was caught in a moral decision to either complete his mission or side with his friends in the midst of the Russian revolution.<ref>{{YIJC|Petrograd, July 1917}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Adventures in the Secret Service]]''</ref> ==Behind the scenes== In [[1995]], ''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' writer [[Jeffrey Boam]] claimed that ''[[Indiana Jones (franchise)|Indiana Jones]]'' director [[Steven Spielberg]] wished to shoot some of [[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull|the fourth ''Indiana Jones'' film]] in Russia.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20070629025211/https://variety.com/article/VR1117862798.html?categoryid=2&cs=1 'Phantom' crew gives economics lesson] at [https://variety.com ''Variety'']</ref> ==Notable Russians== *[[Leo Tolstoy]] *[[Vladimir Lenin]] *[[Yuri]] *[[Leonid]] ==Locations in Imperial Russia== *[[Saint Petersburg]] / Petrograd *[[Moscow]] area **[[Kuntsevo]] ***[[Akhmatov estate]] ***[[Russian village]] ***[[Gypsy camp]] ***[[Tolstoy estate]] ***[[Russian church]] *[[Odessa]] *[[Tula]] *[[Orel]] *[[Karkov]] *[[Poltava]] *[[Pomoshnaya]] *[[Baku]] *[[Siberia]] ==Appearances== *''[[The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles]]'' – "[[Tangiers, July 1909]]" {{C|Cancelled}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[My First Adventure]]'' {{Mo}} *{{YIJC|Young Indiana Jones: Travels with Father}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Travels with Father]]'' *''[[Indiana Jones Jr et la Météorite Sacrée]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Young Indiana Jones and the Princess of Peril]]'' {{Fa}} *[[Young Indiana Jones and the Princess of Peril (comic)|''Young Indiana Jones and the Princess of Peril'' comic]] *''[[Indiana Jones Jr et le Violon du Metropolitan]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Young Indiana Jones and the Journey to the Underworld]]'' {{C|Historical note}} *{{YIJC|Verdun, September 1916}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Demons of Deception]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Vienna, March 1917]]'' {{Mo}} *{{YIJC|Petrograd, July 1917}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Adventures in the Secret Service]]'' *''[[Revolution!]]'' *''[[The Rule of Russia]]'' *''[[Revolution in Russia]]'' *{{YIJC|Istanbul, September 1918}} {{Edited Into}} ''[[Masks of Evil]]'' {{C|Indirect mention}} *''[[The Roaring Twenties]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Indiana Jones: The Search For Buried Treasure]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Indiana Jones and the Genesis Deluge]]'' *{{FAIJ|Trail of the Golden Guns}} {{Mo}} *[[Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (novel)|''Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings'' novel]] {{C|Cancelled}} {{Mo}} == Sources == * ''[[The Man with the Big Stick]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[The War to End All Wars]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[Interactive Timeline]]'' * ''[[Unquiet Voices - Russian Writers and the State]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[The Russian Revolution - All Power to the Soviets!]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[Lines in the Sand - The Middle East and the Great War]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[Reading the Enemy's Mind - Espionage in World War I]]'' {{Nf}} * ''[[Indiana Jones: The Ultimate Guide]]'' * {{LF|url=news/real-indiana-jones-fear-and-humility/|text=The Real Indiana Jones: Fear & Humility}} == Notes and references == {{Reflist}} ==External links== *{{WP|Russian Empire}} [[Category:Countries]] [[Category:Empires]]
