Battle of Poltava
The Battle of Poltava (Swedish: Slaget vid Poltava; Russian: Полта́вская би́тва; Ukrainian: Полта́вська би́тва) on 27 June 1709 (8 July, N.S.) was the decisive victory of Peter I of Russia over the Swedish forces under Field Marshal Carl Gustav Rehnskiöld, in one of the battles of the Great Northern War.
It is widely believed to have been the beginning of Sweden's decline as a Great Power, as the tsardom of Russia took its place as the leading nation of north-eastern Europe. The battle also bears major importance in Ukrainian national history: as hetman Ivan Mazepa sided with the Swedes, seeking to create an uprising in Ukraine against the tsardom.

'The Action at Poltava' - Russian Soldier's Song (1909 Recording)
Support the Channel:
This is a 1909 recording of a soldier's ballad entitled 'The Action at Poltava'. The ballad was incredibly popular in the Russian Empire during the 18th century, and is performed by an unnamed (likely military) choir.
Originally a folk song, 'The Action at Poltava' was first cataloged and arranged by the Russian scholar Ivan Evstratovich Molchanov. Molchanov is well know for being the founder of Russia's first professional folk choir.
The lyrics chronicle the 1709 battle of Poltava. The battle was the largest engagement during the 18th century Great Northern War, which saw the Kingdom of Sweden and the Tsardom of Russia compete for hegemony over Europe's northern regions. The lyrics also celebrate Peter the Great, who commanded Russian forces during the battle and escaped capture multiple times.

В двух словах: Ющенко называет свой народ РАБАМИ и призывает стать ПРЕДАТЕЛЯМИ!
Ющенко усиленно готовится к 300-летию Полтавской битвы. Но готовится как-то по-особенному. В Полтаве доламывают Колонну Славы, построенную горожанами к двухвековому юбилею сражения. Молодежь новой Украины исписывает священную бронзу не приличными словами и разбирает на цветной металл осадные орудия и римские шлемы. И тут же, на соседней улице, начинают ваять совсем другие памятники - гетману Мазепе - с привлечением самых высоких покровителей. Официальный Киев ускоренными темпами переписывает и перестраивает историю.
Yushchenko strenuously prepares for the 300 anniversary of the Poltava fight. But prepares somehow in an especial way. In Poltava contamination break completely the Column of Glory constructed by townspeople by two-centuries anniversary of battle. The youth of new Ukraine uses up sacred bronze not decent words and assorts obsidional tools and the Roman helmets on nonferrous metal. And there and then, in the next street, start to model absolutely other monuments - to hetman Mazepa - with attraction of the highest patrons. Official Kiev the accelerated rates copies and reconstructs history.

Church of the Holy Martyr John the Warrior Yakimanka
The church of the Holy Martyr John the Warrior was built in memory of the Battle of Poltava, and, according to tradition, the church was erected from drawings made by Peter I.
The design of the church combines elements of both Moscow Baroque and Ukrainian Baroque. Unusually, the church remained opened during the 1930's and a number of religious works from abandoned or destroyed churches in the neighbourhood were placed here.
