Peter 1 is not a Tsar! After Peter, Russia became an empire and all the rulers of the emperors, although they were called the king, for example, Nicholas 2, but this was not the main title. By the way, here is the full title of Nicholas 2 - the emperor and autocrat of All-Russian, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod; king of Kazan, king of Astrakhan, king of Poland, king of Siberia, king of Tauric Chersonesos, king of Georgia; Sovereign Pskov and Grand Duke Smolensky, Lithuanian, Volyn, Podolsky and Finland; Prince of Estland, Livonia, Courland and Semigalsky, Samogitsky, Bialystok, Korelsky, Tver, Ugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bulgaria and others; the sovereign and the Grand Duke of Novgorod of the lower lands, Chernigov, Ryazan, Polotsky, Rostov, Yaroslavl, Belozersky, Udora, Obdorsky, Kondi, Vitebsk, Mstislavsky and all northern countries; and the sovereign of Iversky, Kartalinsky and Kabardinsky lands and regions of Armenians; Cherkasy and Gorsky princes and other hereditary sovereign and possessor, sovereign of Turkestan; Norwegian heir, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein, Stormarn, Ditmarsen and Oldenburg. And these are all the titles of Peter the Great - Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod, Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan, Tsar of Siberia, Sovereign of Pskov and Grand Prince of Smolensky, Prince of Estonia, Livonia. Korelsky, Tver, Ugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bulgarian and others, the Sovereign and Grand Prince of Novgorod the Nizov land, Chernihiv. Ryazan. Rostov, Yaroslavl, Beloozersky, Udora, Obdorsky, Kondian and all Northern countries are the ruler and Sovereign of the Iversky lands, the Kartala and Georgian Kings, and the Kabardian lands, Cherkasy and Mountain Princes and other hereditary Sovereign and Holder. Yes, he was tsar, but his main merits and reforms occurred when he became emperor. Tsar's appeal was colloquial
I had a character in Call Of Cthulhu, a russian engineer called Dimitri Valissiev. One session we were the group was finding each member to make a meeting and he has chilling in his apartment with a Balalaika play that song... Gosh, that was amazing
Came here from Kings and Generals' video about the history of the Kievan Rus - genuine chills at the end as the age of the Rus comes to an end, with the industrial version of this theme playing
Addicted to drinking, sex and partying, but also an hyperactive worker, one of the most hardcore men who ever lived, also probably the only monarch in history that left his throne for a year just for love to knowledge and modern navy. Russia been self proclaimed as the third Rome was a joke until this guy took power and made the title of god emperor something to not mess around with.
What a peacefu- WHAT ARE THOSE, COSSACKS? Oh well, I can hold off this assault. 50 turns later. 11:42 No, no, no those aren't Cossacks... 12:52 NO NO NO NO, THOSE ARE TANKS

Lot of people hate on this civ for feeling unfocused, but to me that's what makes them so fun. I never feel locked into one playstyle, even though people surely expected Russia to be wide domination, they can do more than just that. And I get to guarantee that this song will play throughout the game.
it's a 100% culture/religion civ. It cannot do anything else consistently. That's what I hate about Civ 6 representation of Russia. It should have been so much more flexible and able to reflect the power of the soviet industry and it's technological come-back.

carples oh as Germany I'm seeing him right now in the atomic age trying to take over the world and since he hates me for not having much culture im afraid our 2 great powers will most likely clash
By the comments, I was expecting something heavy and dark, but Russia's atomic is as beautiful and meaningful as (most) the other OSTs in the game. Among my favorites are Kong, Korea, Georgian. Each one of them is capable of bringing me a different sensation.
This song is beautiful and a magnificent hommage to Kalinka, but, I can't help to wonder what this would have looked like if the had chosen Korobeiniki instead. I am sure they would have easily made the best (kind of) Tetris Theme A remix. (I know that Korobeiniki isn't really the same thing as tetris theme A, but, since they usualy only take the core of a song and then ad their own creation on top of it, it would probably have been something closer to the tetris theme than to korobeiniki) (Sorry about my english)
This whole theme actually made me remember Eren from AoT. All Seasons do resembles the music intensity. Finally it becomes so dark like him, it feels now its going to wreck havoc.
I think that this song (English name is "Song of the Volga boatmen") appears in Civilization games too much often. It was theme of Russia in Civ1, Civ2 and Civ4 (Peter, Stalin)
@@xtq0528 Где были Украинцы при Петре Великом?) Правильно, на окраине Империи Российской - замечу, что Украина - это и есть дословно "Окраина Империи".
Uniban Black You are correct. In fact, if Polyushko Poyle was to be used, then Civ would've had either Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Antropov or Gorbachev as Russia's leader. (Both Lenin and Stalin had their turn)
All who say "Tsar Peter" please do not upset the Romanovs. Peter 1 is not a Tsar! After Peter, Russia became an empire and all the rulers of the emperors, although they were called the king, for example, Nicholas 2, but this was not the main title. And these are all the titles of Peter the Great - Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod, Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan, Tsar of Siberia, Sovereign of Pskov and Grand Prince of Smolensky, Prince of Estonia, Livonia.

Yes, he was tsar, but his main merits and reforms occurred when he became emperor.

Peter was first crowned as a Tsar. He only became the Emperor of Russia in 1721, and I would think that Peter's depiction in here is meant to represent him during his most active years, as in, about between the Grand Embassy (from which he brought a lot of experience back home) and the end of the Great Northern War. Probably even just after Poltava, when he has already defeated the Swedish Empire on land and is building the fleet to do the same to them at sea. He only was an Emperor for about 4 years, while he was a Tsar for almost 40. So it would be quite correct to call him a Tsar. Much unlike Catherine, who's never been a Tsarina (it isn't even a real title!), but has been an Empress.
i think rather call it novaya russia, just call it Russian Federation, while Modern and Atomic is Soviet Era. Industrial still technically under Russian Empire era
It's partly based on Empire Earth's Russian campaign for the name Novaya Russia. Leninist represents the last days of the Russian Empire, while the Russian Empire era represent the period of expansion into Siberia.
@@chewxieyang4677 you can't compare fictional stuff from empire earth into civ 6 thought. Why I said industrial era is still Russian empire because in civ6 industrial era technology is similar on the time when industrial revolution happened. It was like 1800's tech. Use of coal powered machinery.
Having an anon profile picture and saying that is a contradiction. I suggest actually reading up on Russian social culture and why they hate big brother and the government in general.
I think the Atomic Era version is a perfect reflection of Russia's modern era. It starts off dark and ominous as the Soviet days, though eventually that subsides in a downwards spiral (fall of the Soviet Union), making way for the choir portion which initially is a bit grim before turning majestic and hopeful (reflecting Russia in the 90's and early 2000's). Eventually though, as the choir falls away, the old, ominous melody starts to return at the end, a reflection of Putin's Russia?
*Ancient theme* - slow and quiet Kalinka. Resembles a peaceful life and development of young Russian civilization, (Slav/Finno Urgic tribes) *Medival* - classic Kalinka. Resembles raised tempo of civilization's development but still agricultural and rural country people. *Industrial* - dark Kalinka. Resembles on the one hand the raise of factories of Russia, their hard work on crafting production, the clash of industrial metal and smoking pipes of factories. On the other hand, it resembles dark age when Russia had to go through bloody World Wars and losing many people in hard battles while Russian civilization keeps its existence and developement against all odds. *Atomic: Relief after Second World War and scientific breakthroughs being invented and shown one by one.
*hits industrial era* “wait why do I hear boss music?”
“Oh it’s just Peter with every single great writer, artist, and musician”

Очень красиво, понравилось)
Not really a sucker for Atomic themes, but Russia just does something amazing with that choir in the second half.
He never survives to the medieval era in my games :(
carples oh as Germany I'm seeing him right now in the atomic age trying to take over the world
and since he hates me for not having much culture im afraid our 2 great powers will most likely clash
RYTY He will Rush A Soon
And in my games hes the only one responsible for those 'An unmet player has been defeated' messages.
Mr.Silver Why Rush A when you can Rush B?
Fking AI ruins everything
By the comments, I was expecting something heavy and dark, but Russia's atomic is as beautiful and meaningful as (most) the other OSTs in the game.
Among my favorites are Kong, Korea, Georgian. Each one of them is capable of bringing me a different sensation.
No hardbass?
They should've done that for the Atomic era. Missed opportunity imo

11:41 the bell sounds make sound like doomsday is coming.
Atomic: You may not believe that it was the BGM who declares the war!
Россия-Матушка! ❤❤❤❤
One of the best BGM in Civ6
This is some great music. I love it.
I downloaded the game today and the only thing i could think about was how Peter looks like Matt Mercer
Ну шо, пацаны, КАЛИНКА МАЛИНКА КАЛИНКА МОЯ или бан
нет брат, мы же славяне, ну как тут не подпевать?

Wtf this is Kalinka how did you make it sound menacing and big ?

This song is beautiful and a magnificent hommage to Kalinka, but, I can't help to wonder what this would have looked like if the had chosen Korobeiniki instead.
I am sure they would have easily made the best (kind of) Tetris Theme A remix. (I know that Korobeiniki isn't really the same thing as tetris theme A, but, since they usualy only take the core of a song and then ad their own creation on top of it, it would probably have been something closer to the tetris theme than to korobeiniki)
(Sorry about my english)
It works really well with Kalinka because it's traditionally performed with the increasing pace like here. They had great source material here.

Great Peter guys. Great
I feel bad for what happened to Romanov
Peter is lowkey the best homie in this game
He was also like almost fucking 7 feet tall irl
This whole theme actually made me remember Eren from AoT. All Seasons do resembles the music intensity. Finally it becomes so dark like him, it feels now its going to wreck havoc.
I really like the Russia soundtrack.
holy shit it really turns soviet when u hit industrial revo- i mean era doesent it?
Industrial sounds like one of the great Russian composers. Atomic is straight up Soviet.
J. Jonah Jameson How does it sound Soviet?
Favorite theme
Powerful music for a powerful nation.
5:39 my fav part
based peter
Yet, I wish to hear Ei ukhnem as russian theme.
It might sound something like the orchestrated instrumental by Glazunov, Stenka Razin: Symphonic Poem in B minor, Op 13.
I think that this song (English name is "Song of the Volga boatmen") appears in Civilization games too much often. It was theme of Russia in Civ1, Civ2 and Civ4 (Peter, Stalin)
Dark and beautiful
I get a Byzantine feel from the grandeur of this music, as well as from the Russian culture from the time of the Empire.
*USSR: 1941 **0:00** - **2:19*
*1945 **2:20** - **6:13*

@@n.i.n2k797 actually I said 1941 in my comment
No Cheeki Breeki?
Dana Dane wish it would change to that when you change to communism
Rather to capitalism. It's more about post-soviet Russia.
@Guy Who's not gay
Russian Empire didn't have industry. That was the Soviet Union theme.
Lol
No because the "gopnik russia communism red" stereotype is f*cking terrible
Были бы у Пети те вооружения, по которым последний трек Ваху играет, всем давно был бы PIZDEC. Хорошо что просто флотом обошёлся...

@@xtq0528 Где были Украинцы при Петре Великом?)
Правильно, на окраине Империи Российской - замечу, что Украина - это и есть дословно "Окраина Империи".
You know ther eis also Rasputin in the game after Industrailera you can hear it but it is very hard to find
best theme, glorious
I hope we can see comrade Stalin in Civ6 as the leader of Russia.
Maybe Lenin
Not bad, but I think, the "Polushko Pole" for Russia will be better.
I don't think so, this is an old song, but "Polushko pole" is from communist era. (If I'm not wrong)
Uniban Black You are correct. In fact, if Polyushko Poyle was to be used, then Civ would've had either Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Antropov or Gorbachev as Russia's leader. (Both Lenin and Stalin had their turn)
@@cjmanson5692
What game was Lenin?
There's a version of this song from Origa that is more peaceful and neutral. It would work very well as Russia theme.
Kyle Jackson and Stalin btw from civ 4
kalinka kalinka kalinka kalinka kalinka kalinka kalinka kalinka
you missed "malinka" part completely =)
Only thing I know about this song...
безумный патреотизм! :з
For the people who don't know: This soundtrack is based on the Russian song "Kalinka"
Thank me later.
What? Some people don't know that.
Timon Heidema true
Do you think we are stupid? WE ALL KNOW KALINKA COMRADE
@@iosifstalin2501 Iosif, comrade, you're not a western spy? This is a miracle!! Welcome comrade Iosif Stalin
For those whom are uninformed, it's because Iosif is closer to the russian pronunciation (Иосиф)
All who say "Tsar Peter" please do not upset the Romanovs.
Peter 1 is not a Tsar! After Peter, Russia became an empire and all the rulers of the emperors, although they were called the king, for example, Nicholas 2, but this was not the main title.
And these are all the titles of Peter the Great - Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod, Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan, Tsar of Siberia, Sovereign of Pskov and Grand Prince of Smolensky, Prince of Estonia, Livonia. Korelsky, Tver, Ugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bulgarian and others, the Sovereign and Grand Prince of Novgorod the Nizov land, Chernihiv. Ryazan. Rostov, Yaroslavl, Beloozersky, Udora, Obdorsky, Kondian and all Northern countries are the ruler and Sovereign of the Iversky lands, the Kartala and Georgian Kings, and the Kabardian lands, Cherkasy and Mountain Princes and other hereditary Sovereign and Holder. Yes, he was tsar, but his main merits and reforms occurred when he became emperor. Tsar's appeal was colloquial
By the way, here is the full title of Nicholas 2 - the emperor and autocrat of All-Russian, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod; king of Kazan, king of Astrakhan, king of Poland, king of Siberia, king of Tauric Chersonesos, king of Georgia; Sovereign Pskov and Grand Duke Smolensky, Lithuanian, Volyn, Podolsky and Finland; Prince of Estland, Livonia, Courland and Semigalsky, Samogitsky, Bialystok, Korelsky, Tver, Ugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bulgaria and others; the sovereign and the Grand Duke of Novgorod of the lower lands, Chernigov, Ryazan, Polotsky, Rostov, Yaroslavl, Belozersky, Udora, Obdorsky, Kondi, Vitebsk, Mstislavsky and all northern countries; and the sovereign of Iversky, Kartalinsky and Kabardinsky lands and regions of Armenians; Cherkasy and Gorsky princes and other hereditary sovereign and possessor, sovereign of Turkestan; Norwegian heir, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein, Stormarn, Ditmarsen and Oldenburg.
Peter was first crowned as a Tsar. He only became the Emperor of Russia in 1721, and I would think that Peter's depiction in here is meant to represent him during his most active years, as in, about between the Grand Embassy (from which he brought a lot of experience back home) and the end of the Great Northern War. Probably even just after Poltava, when he has already defeated the Swedish Empire on land and is building the fleet to do the same to them at sea.
He only was an Emperor for about 4 years, while he was a Tsar for almost 40. So it would be quite correct to call him a Tsar. Much unlike Catherine, who's never been a Tsarina (it isn't even a real title!), but has been an Empress.
Sometimes I have that Theme while playing a other Leader lol
If a country is ahead of you in something it’s theme will be in your game
Unique Era names for Russia:
Ancient: Rurik
Classical: Kievan Rus
Medieval: Tsardom
Renaissance: Russian Empire
Industrial: Leninist
Modern: Stalinist
Atomic: Post-Stalin
Information: Novaya Russia
No...for the information era you should call it Putin's Empire era...
Novaya Russia represents the New Russia period, which ranges from Yeltsin to Putin.
i think rather call it novaya russia, just call it Russian Federation, while Modern and Atomic is Soviet Era. Industrial still technically under Russian Empire era
It's partly based on Empire Earth's Russian campaign for the name Novaya Russia. Leninist represents the last days of the Russian Empire, while the Russian Empire era represent the period of expansion into Siberia.
@@chewxieyang4677 you can't compare fictional stuff from empire earth into civ 6 thought. Why I said industrial era is still Russian empire because in civ6 industrial era technology is similar on the time when industrial revolution happened. It was like 1800's tech. Use of coal powered machinery.
Слава России!🇷🇺🐻Z

Never really liked the russian culture, BUT beyond any doubt this soundtrack does put their culture in an epic coating. Nicely done!
Having an anon profile picture and saying that is a contradiction. I suggest actually reading up on Russian social culture and why they hate big brother and the government in general.

3:24 beginning of medieval theme
Poland: hears this. Also Poland: KURWA!
Did anyone notice the beginning medieval Russian theme sounds like the tetris theme?
Well, yeah, that''s because they're the same song. The Tetris theme is actually a Russian folk song.
You are going deep now :o
I think the Atomic Era version is a perfect reflection of Russia's modern era. It starts off dark and ominous as the Soviet days, though eventually that subsides in a downwards spiral (fall of the Soviet Union), making way for the choir portion which initially is a bit grim before turning majestic and hopeful (reflecting Russia in the 90's and early 2000's). Eventually though, as the choir falls away, the old, ominous melody starts to return at the end, a reflection of Putin's Russia?
Doesent matter of any our leaders, we always have hard times.

*Ancient theme* - slow and quiet Kalinka. Resembles a peaceful life and development of young Russian civilization, (Slav/Finno Urgic tribes)
*Medival* - classic Kalinka. Resembles raised tempo of civilization's development but still agricultural and rural country people.
*Industrial* - dark Kalinka. Resembles on the one hand the raise of factories of Russia, their hard work on crafting production, the clash of industrial metal and smoking pipes of factories.
On the other hand, it resembles dark age when Russia had to go through bloody World Wars and losing many people in hard battles while Russian civilization keeps its existence and developement against all odds.
*Atomic:
Relief after Second World War and scientific breakthroughs being invented and shown one by one.
