We know, What the Russian Empire, Since the autocrat Peter the Great, many basic goods have been exported to the West:

Decoding, sailcloth, Constructional forest, furs, Horse harness, Mushrooms and berries, nuts, mushrooms, Dairy products.

And from the time of Elizabeth Alekseyevna and beyond, Russia "traded" bayonets. I mean......, their armed forces.

Many military campaigns were financed by England... Albion was counted long ago, that it is much more profitable to use the drive of Russian recruits, rather than fight for themselves.

Historians know that, Try not to raise a difficult topic...

The Dangerous Topic. We all admire Suvorov’s feats in the Alpine campaign. But we try to get around the main question:

How did the Russian troops get there?

Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy shouted about it through the mouth of Prince Bolkonsky the elder. He received a report from the army about the missing son Andrei, He cries bitterly about the futility of the French campaigns!

The average cost of one Russian bayonet was equal to a gold coin or 15 silver coins. INMHO.      This question needs further investigation...                                         

The average number of the army and the baggage train reached 40-50 thousand and no more.. And such a "place" in the division of European labors We have occupied for more than 50 years.

The Hungarian uprising of 1848-1849, Tsar Nicholas first tamed, already, Completely at Russian expense, By the way.., completely in vain. That's what I paid for...

Come on.., Let’s remember two simple things:

The Russian army many times went on campaigns on the English account

Until 1833 (1816-1833), the national anthem of the Empire was the English anthem "God Save King"..

The peasant children of Russia were the most popular Russian commodity both within the kingdom and outside it..
